Amouage Ubar is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1995. Ubar opens with Litsea Cubeba, Orange, Violet Leaf, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rosewood, Jasmine, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Vetiver, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Amouage's Ubar carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This perfume is a divisive, intoxicating beast. It's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, with some finding it a masterpiece of rich, animalic florals and others utterly repulsed by what they describe as

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.

Its potent projection and distinctive, animalic character make it unsuitable for office wear. This is a showstopper for special occasions or intimate dates, best enjoyed in cooler weather due to its rich, heavy accords.

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.

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

Ubar opens with a sparkling burst of citrus and violet leaf, quickly giving way to a rich, indolic white floral heart where jasmine, ylang-ylang, and tuberose intertwine. As it settles, a warm, balsamic ambergris emerges, grounding the composition with animalic depth and a creamy sandalwood finish. It’s a complex, ever-evolving scent that whispers of ancient opulence.
