Numero Uno I – Karus – Extrait de Parfum

ADAMO – a niche perfume label that launched in 2023 with the Roman Collection: geometric black-and-white bottles, made in Italy, and a Rome that stands for power, ceremony and sensual excess. Numero Uno I – Karus belongs to that first series and was composed by Christian Provenzano.

Numero Uno I smells powdery-floral, spicy and a little intoxicating – a violet fragrance with rum in the glass. Pink pepper and rum open warm and spicy, violet and sweet raspberry take over in the heart, and patchouli and cedarwood lay down a warm, woody base.

Numero Uno I suits every season and can be worn by day as well as by night. The genderneutral fragrance is soft in its entrance, yet has a clear signature.

What makes Numero Uno I special to us is the rum: instead of leaving the violet purely powdery-sweet, it drapes a satin-soft, slightly heady veil over it – and the violet gains backbone.
