Carolina Herrera Amethyst Haze is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Véronique Nyberg and Alex Lee. Amethyst Haze opens with Pink Pepper and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Lavender and Coffee, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Carolina Herrera's Amethyst Haze carries a Statement verdict, a spicy-led wear.

This one's a divisive affair. To some, Amethyst Haze is a masterfully blended, cosy caffeine-kick of a fragrance, to others it's a 'urinal cake', synthetic mess. Don't blind buy, sample first.

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.

About

Amethyst Haze opens with a jolt of warm cardamom and a spicy flicker of pink pepper, swiftly transitioning into a heart of aromatic lavender and a subtle coffee nuance. The drydown settles into a comforting, woody vanilla embrace, softened by cashmere wood and a touch of earthy patchouli, creating a smooth and enveloping finish.
