House of Bō Oro Verde Parfum

What it smells like

Oro Verde (‘Green Gold’) is an aromatic fougère-aquatic — an olfactive expedition through daring waters and lush greenery. It opens with a heady green cannabis accord, bright bergamot and herbal mate tea.

The heart is fresh and juicy, with aromatic basil, watery watermelon and earthy vetiver. The base grounds it in smoky palo santo, salty ambergris and green moss. It is an adventurous, watery-green scent — unusual, natural and invigorating.

The full composition runs from top notes of Cannabis, Bergamot, Mate, through a heart of Basil, Watermelon, Vetiver, to a base of Palo Santo, Ambergris, Oakmoss — a aromatic built to unfold slowly and wear close to the skin. The parfum is housed in House of Bō's signature bottle, finished with a hand-cut, semi-precious stone cap chosen to mirror the mood of the scent.

On skin its principal accords — Green, Aromatic, Aquatic, Fruity and Woody — layer into a rounded, characterful whole, and as a parfum-strength concentration it is built for rich projection and long wear. It is offered here in both a 40 ml and a larger 75 ml bottle.

As founder Bernardo Möller describes it: “Inspired by an exhilarating adventure through the Amazon rainforest that leads you to the enlightening moment when you finally understand: it's about the journey not the destination.”
