Faunus Eau de Parfum by Venus Invictus
Faunus Eau de Parfum is a unisex fragrance from the American brand Venus Invictus.
This eau de parfum has a distinctive fougere-woody character, created for those who appreciate natural nuances, deep resonance and a noticeable presence.
The fragrance combines aromatic, balsamic, fruity, green and woody accords.
This combination evokes a dense forest after the rain, where cool greenery gradually gives way to dry branches, coniferous resins and a warm tobacco nuance.
The Fragrance's Character and Development
From the first seconds, Faunus smells fresh, cool and slightly bitter: mint, wormwood, yarrow and elemi create a dynamic green-balsamic opening.
It conveys the sensation of herbs crushed between the fingers, damp bark and transparent resinous air.
As it develops, the composition becomes fuller and softer.
Cypress and hinoki highlight the dry woody texture, wax myrtle adds a resinous-spicy nuance, while fig brings delicate fruity roundness, keeping the fragrance from feeling too austere.
The base is built around dry woods, oak, fir, fern and tobacco.
The final impression is dark, earthy and masculine in mood, yet the unisex presentation preserves its versatility: on different skin, the fragrance may lean either toward fresh greenery or toward a warm woody-tobacco character.
Sillage and Wearability
Faunus is described as having very strong sillage, so it is best tested with a cautious application.
The exact recommended number of sprays for skin and clothing is not specified in the available information; in practice, it is best to start with one spray and assess the intensity after 15–20 minutes.
The composition feels especially at home in cool weather, for evening occasions, during a walk or in settings where a distinctive fragrance presence is appreciated.
In summer and in small spaces, its intense development may feel overwhelming, so application should be adjusted to the temperature and situation.
Its Place in the Collection and Similar Fragrances
Information about Faunus's release year, collection, perfumer and other concentrations is not available.
It is known that the fragrance is offered as an eau de parfum and positioned as unisex, so it can be chosen not by its gender label but by an appreciation for green, coniferous and woody nuances.
In terms of mood, Faunus may appeal to fans of Tom Ford Costa Azzurra Signature, as well as Nimerè Parfums Marquis / Marquise and Giulietta Capuleti Bugia Bianca.
At the same time, Faunus stands out with a more herbal opening and a dense forest-like base, where cool freshness gradually gives way to dry woods and tobacco.
