Floris London Amaryllis is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2010. Amaryllis opens with Lily, settles into a heart of Sea Water, Tuberose, Ylang-Ylang, and Myrrh, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Heliotrope, and Caramel. Floris London's Amaryllis carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

This is a captivating, mysterious white floral that leans into the dramatic. It's not a crowd-pleaser for everyone, with some finding it a bit much, but those who love it, really love it. Often compared to Tom Ford's Black Orchid, but with a sweeter and more refined edge.

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

Amaryllis opens with a powerful, almost narcotic lily, quickly joined by the creamy, exotic notes of tuberose and ylang-ylang. A surprising marine accord provides a fleeting salty freshness, before the scent deepens into a rich, resinous heart of incense and myrrh. The dry down is a warm embrace of sweet caramel, earthy patchouli, and powdery heliotrope, leaving a long-lasting, sensual trail.
