Il Padrino by Sospiro opens boozy and dark, black currant, rum and amaretto over a lift of bergamot. Amber and patchouli move in at the centre, with sandalwood keeping it smooth rather than sharp. The base is where it turns properly sweet: vanilla, Siam benzoin and labdanum build a warm, resinous amber that sits close to the skin. Released in 2025, it is worn by men and women who like their fragrance rich and a little theatrical rather than quiet. Voters save it for winter and autumn nights, almost exclusively after dark. Wearers mostly vote it long-lasting, and the sillage vote is equally clear at strong, so one or two sprays go a long way. Try a 3ml decant on a dark winter evening and see if that boozy warmth is one you keep reaching for.

The community verdict
On winter nights, Il Padrino brings Rum and Amaretto together with Black Currant before settling into Amber, woods and Vanilla. Most find it long-lasting with strong projection. Autumn works too, and its sweet, boozy warmth suits someone in the mood for a rich, spicy scent.

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.
