Basso by Sospiro starts sharp and citrus, with grapefruit giving it an almost bitter brightness. Carnation and labdanum move the heart somewhere warmer and slightly spiced. The base is where it turns serious: black pepper, cedar, oakmoss, pink pepper, sandalwood and vetiver, earthy and dense underneath the initial brightness. It launched in 2022 and suits men and women who like a woody scent with real grip rather than something soft. Voters keep it for autumn and winter, and it works equally through the day or at night. The community vote lands clearly on eternal for longevity, and clearly on enormous for sillage, so one spray fills a room. Try it as a 10ml decant if you already know you like heavy woods.

The community verdict
Basso opens with grapefruit before carnation and labdanum lead into black pepper, cedar and oakmoss. Most wearers report long-lasting wear and strong projection. Its woody, earthy character fits autumn nights best, though winter and daytime work too.

The house
More from Sospiro
Sospiro is an Italian niche house, founded by Sergio Momo in 2010, that builds its perfumes around music, down to the names. The style is rich and polished, with bergamot and grapefruit up top and patchouli, amber, cedar and oakmoss below. Mezzo, from 2025, is aromatic and woody with a peppery bite. Il Padrino, also new in 2025, is the warm, boozy one, where amaretto meets spice. Basso goes deep and earthy, with vetiver and patchouli in the lead. Vibrato is the lightest of the four: citrus and flowers finished with a powdery touch. Salah Al Zarooni, Christian Provenzano and Nathalie Templer are among the perfumers behind the range. All of them are unisex, so wear whichever suits your mood.
