1920 The Origin
Tous 1920 The Origin Eau de Parfum is a warm, spicy woody fragrance from the Spanish house, launched in 2017 and composed by perfumer Daphne Bugey. It is built around aromatic character, with a lively fresh spiciness leading the opening before the scent settles into something deeper and more rounded.
The opening carries a bright, citrusy freshness with a peppery edge, giving the first impression a crisp lift. As it develops, a tea-like heart with a faintly green, aromatic quality softens the spice and leads into a warmer middle. The drydown is where the woods come forward, with a dry, resinous cedar character and a earthy depth that lingers on the skin and sits well alongside the more animalic undertones of the base.
Wearing it feels both classic and modern, with a confident, slightly nostalgic character that works well for those who enjoy layered, spiced compositions. Its moderate projection means it tends to sit comfortably close to the wearer, and it generally holds its character through a full day without becoming overpowering.
It suits the cooler months particularly well, though its freshness also makes it wearable across spring and summer evenings. The character is versatile enough for professional settings, a night out or a more relaxed casual day.
