Amouage Remain is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2026, created by Pierre Negrin. Remain opens with Allspice, Bergamot, Mandarin, and Frankincense, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, Lily, and Juniper, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Guaiac Wood, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. Amouage's Remain carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

Amouage Remain is a divisive amber-vanilla bomb - some adore its regal depth and unique spice, others dismiss it as unoriginal or a shadow of pricier rivals. It's a statement scent for those who crave attention, with a love-it-or-hate-it intensity.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Remain is a strong, projecting scent that's best suited for evenings and cooler weather given its heavy amber and vanilla accords. While too prominent for most office settings, its bold nature makes it ideal for dates and formal events where leaving a memorable impression is key.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Vanillin from Vanilla
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Remain opens with a bold, almost waxy punch of pimiento and frankincense, brightened by a whisper of bergamot and mandarin. This quickly melts into a rich heart of creamy jasmine, lily, and ylang-ylang, given an aromatic edge by juniper. The final act is a deep, enveloping embrace of vanilla, tonka, and ambergris, grounded by guaiac wood and a hint of earthy patchouli, leaving a luxuriously spiced, sweet trail.
