Armaf Purple Amethyst is an Eau de Parfum. Purple Amethyst opens with Lemon, Rose, and Litchi, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Iris, and Magnolia, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Patchouli. Armaf's Purple Amethyst carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

Seriously divisive, Armaf's Purple Amethyst is either a sophisticated, clean floral or a cheap, soapy mess. Many find the rose-iris combo overwhelming and feminine, making it a tricky wear.

Office Date

Its delicate sillage and clean, soapy character make it suitable for office and casual wear, even the gym, as some reviewers suggest. It might not stand out for formal events due to its perceived lack of 'oomph' or for dates if strong projection is desired.

About

It kicks off with a sharp, albeit sometimes sour, lemon and litchi, quickly joined by a dominant, powdery rose and iris. Magnolia and orange blossom add a soft, clean floral layer, settling into a musky, subtly ambered patchouli base. Imagine a high-end bar of floral soap, then add a bit of 'oomph'.
