Lucius Maximus by Fragrance Du Bois is a 2026 parfum built for cold-weather evenings, roasted coffee and orange blossom at its centre. Bitter orange, mandarin, bergamot and pink pepper open it with a sharp citrus snap, before roasted coffee, orange blossom and cedarwood take over through the heart. The base runs deep and resinous: Haitian vetiver, tonka bean, Madagascar vanilla and cypriol, leaving a dark, woody trail that lingers. Unisex in character, it suits anyone drawn to scents with real discipline and weight rather than lightness. Autumn and winter nights are its natural home, worn once the evening starts. Most wearers vote it long-lasting, and the sillage vote is clearly strong, so one or two sprays carry the whole evening. A 3ml decant is a fair way to test its coffee-and-vetiver character before you commit to more.

The community verdict
On autumn evenings, Lucius Maximus opens with bitter orange and bergamot before coffee and cedarwood give way to earthy cypriol. Most find it long-lasting, with strong projection also reported by most. Winter nights work too, especially for someone drawn to a bold, woody coffee scent.
