Overall Impression
ILIOS Sagittarius is a unisex fragrance from 2026 by ILIOS, a Chilean perfume brand that creates compositions in parfum and extrait concentrations.
The release combines citrus, spicy and woody facets, creating an expressive profile with noticeable depth and character.
The name Sagittarius seems to set an energetic, freedom-loving mood for the composition.
This fragrance is for those who enjoy more than simple freshness—it offers a contrasting development: a sparkling opening gradually becomes green and spicy before moving into a warm, rich base.
Notes and Development
The top notes of ILIOS Sagittarius are bright and dynamic: citrus nuances of orange, mandarin and bergamot meet cool mint and juicy blackcurrant.
This opening feels fresh, slightly tart and invigorating, without the one-dimensional character of a simple citrus scent.
Galbanum, clove, nutmeg and a woody accord emerge at the heart of the composition.
Green bitterness and dry spiciness make the scent feel more focused, adding distinctive texture and emphasising the transition from the fresh opening to the warm base.
The drydown is built around amber, labdanum, tonka bean, vetiver and musk.
Here, the fragrance becomes softer, denser and warmer: resinous balsamic nuances intertwine with woody dryness, a touch of tonka sweetness and a lasting musky accent.
Character and Wearability
Sagittarius comes in a parfum, or extrait concentration, so the composition is designed to deliver a rich, intense presence.
Its sillage is described as very strong: the fragrance is noticeable in the surrounding space and can linger on skin and clothing for a long time.
The recommended amount for application to skin and fabric is not specified in the database, so it is sensible to start with one spray and add another if needed.
Thanks to its unisex positioning, the fragrance is not tied to a single style.
On men, it can emphasise composure and confidence, while on women it can add spicy sophistication and expressive woody depth.
Sagittarius is especially fitting in cool weather, in the evening, for a walk, a meeting or an occasion that calls for a noticeable and memorable accent.
The Perfumer and Its Place in the Brand’s Style
The fragrance was created by Maximiliano Cifuentes. His handling of the contrast between fresh citrus, green nuances, spices and a resinous base allows ILIOS Sagittarius to unfold in a layered, dimensional way.
For ILIOS, this release offers a vivid demonstration of the brand’s signature interest in concentrated unisex fragrances with a strong presence.
What to Compare It With
If you would like to explore a similar mood, take a look at Edgardio Chilini Lemon Sorbet.
At the same time, Sagittarius stands out through its spicier, ambery-woody development: its composition is not limited to a fresh opening and leaves behind a dense, warm and highly noticeable trail.
Other concentrations of this fragrance are not listed in the database.
