Amouage Remain is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2026, created by Pierre Negrin. Remain opens with Pimiento, 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, an amber-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.

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.
