Fabbrica Della Musa Opera Infernal Extrait
Description
Opera Infernal is juicy pineapple and a hot floral heart over praline and vetiver: sweet, loud and theatrical. Released in 2024 by Fabbrica della Musa and composed by Hamid Merati-Kashani, it is inspired by the temperament of Havana, the rhythm of tango and the image of an erupting volcano, and its deep red bottle recalls opera curtains and Carmen's dress. The house describes it as an opera in two acts. Calabrian bergamot and pineapple open it, Egyptian geranium and magnolia form the intense floral heart, and Haitian vetiver and praline warm the base. Reviewers single out the seductive fruity opening and how long it lasts.

- Rich Ambers: 12%
- Sweet: 11%
Translation: woody, floral and fresh in almost equal parts, which matches how it wears: bright pineapple and bergamot, a geranium-magnolia heart and vetiver underneath. The amber share is warm depth in the base, not oud, and the praline keeps a sweet thread running through the drydown.
