Lucrethia

Lucrethia by V Canto is a rich, gourmand floral with a bold yet refined opening of lime blossom, pear, pink pepper, and laurel. Its core revolves around a velvety fusion of vanilla, amber, coffee, and clove, layered over a deep patchouli and cedar base. The early notes carry a slightly soapy or astringent quality, which evolves into a soft, creamy, and deeply sweet drydown marked by honeysuckle, vanilla, and woods. While its initial sharpness may seem overwhelming to some, it settles into a warm, enveloping scent that feels particularly alluring in the colder months. The performance is highly inconsistent: some users report enduring sillage and longevity of up to 10 hours, others find it vanishes quickly and lacks projection. Overall, the scent centers around a nostalgic, dessert-like aura with clear comparisons to YSL Black Opium, but with a more textural and layered execution.
