Existence

by Quentin Bisch

Amouage Existence is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Quentin Bisch. The fragrance opens with Rose, Lily Of The Valley, and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Labdanum, Woody, and Frankincense, and dries down to a base of Musk, Ambergris, and Benzoin.

Our verdict on Existence: Acquired

This one's a proper divisive scent - people either love its clean, ethereal vibe or absolutely detest its 'toilet cleaner' sharpness. If you're after 'beast mode' clean, this could be your jam, but be warned: it's not for the faint of heart (or nose).

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Formal
Also Works:
Date Casual

Its "beast mode" projection and longevity mean it's likely too overwhelming for an office, with reviews citing it as potentially "offensive." However, its striking, unique freshness and elegance make it suitable for formal events or evening dates, while its clean aspect can work casually if applied sparingly.

About

Existence opens with a sparkling blast of aldehydes, reminiscent of fizzing champagne, lifted by a bright lily of the valley and a jammy, fresh rose. As it settles, a sweet, balsamic warmth emerges from the labdanum and frankincense, grounding the airy florals. The base rounds out with a clean musk and the subtle, salty depth of ambergris, leaving a lasting impression of rich, soapy freshness with an almost lactonic creaminess.
