Amouage Lineage is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Karine Vinchon-Spehner. The fragrance opens with Pink Pepper, Sichuan Pepper, Saffron, and Ginger, settles into a heart of Fenugreek, Frankincense, and Myrrh, and dries down to a base of Labdanum, Vetiver, Patchouli, and Benzoin.

Our verdict on Lineage: Acquired

This one's a divisive marvel. Lineage conjures up anything from a serene seaside temple to a full-blown fish market disaster, but you can't deny its unique, mineral-infused incense character. It's not a crowd-pleaser, it's a conversation starter.

About

Lineage opens with a punch of peppery ginger and warm saffron, quickly ushering in a distinctly mineralic experience. Frankincense and myrrh weave through, creating a churchy, ancient feel, balanced by fenugreek's subtle sweetness. The dry down is a sophisticated blend of earthy vetiver and patchouli, softened by balsamic labdanum and benzoin, leaving a lasting impression of salty air and smouldering resins.
