‘While the original Gladiator pays homage to the traditional art of fougere, Ultimus takes a more futuristic and contemporary direction. The fragrance retains the bold spirit of the original, but builds a completely new identity around the unique accord of violet leaves, osmanthus and marine notes. The composition opens with a sparkling opening of citruses and pineapple, enveloped in a sea breeze. In the heart, spicy nutmeg intertwines with the velvety softness of osmanthus and violet leaves, while the rich base of suede, ambroxan, tonka bean and cedar provides remarkable longevity and a dense trail.’ – Alchemista
