Scent Profile

Composition

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Winter

Amarige's opulent bouquet of white and yellow florals shines in cool spring and autumn air, where its richness and projection can be fully appreciated. Its warmth and sillage can become overwhelming in high heat, but it remains inviting and plush in winter and transitional seasons.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

This is a powerhouse floral best suited to formal events or confident evening wear, where its presence can truly command a room. Its strength and vintage character can be too much for office or casual daytime settings and is wholly unsuitable for sporty or active occasions.

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

Amarige is a dazzling, opulent cloud of creamy white and golden yellow florals, led by tuberose, mimosa, and ylang-ylang, swirled with juicy peach and plum. The heart radiates honeyed warmth and a touch of spicy carnation, unfolding over a plush, sensual base of sandalwood, vanilla, amber, and musk. The effect is both exuberant and nostalgic-like an overflowing bridal bouquet drenched in sunlight, with a bold, unforgettable sillage that lingers long after you leave the room. Amarige is a vintage powerhouse, both comforting and regal, for those who love their florals lush, complex, and unapologetically grand.
