Perfume information

The composition of Carmen evolves as a cohesive olfactory arc, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of Opera Prima is recognizable from the opening to the final trail. No excess details, only what works, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum sets the depth and body this composition needs.

Without strict stage separation the opening appears as one connected movement with a energetic fresh mood: Citrus accord, Freesia, Musk and Nutmeg. In this format 4 notes sound as one coherent layer, building sunny vitality that feels seamless.

The heart and base are read as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which gives the structure continuity.

The internal accord map is driven by these accords: Citrus, Floral, Musc and Spicy forming a compact and readable structure. The profile is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived. For persistence Middle points to a sustained drydown presence.

From the group perspective the composition is built around Citrus, Floral, Musk and Spicy.

In summary Carmen reads as a cohesive composition — the start forms character, the middle layer carries the identity, and the base secures the trail. This is the type of composition best understood in wear.

Persistence

The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage

Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth

The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.
