Amazone

by Maurice Maurin

Hermès Amazone is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1974, created by Maurice Maurin. Amazone opens with Rosewood, Violet Leaf, Neroli, and Redcurrant Leaf, settles into a heart of Lily Of The Valley, Iris, Blackcurrant, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Ylang-Ylang, Sandalwood, and Oakmoss. Hermès's Amazone carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

This isn't just a classic; it's a confident, complex green floral that smells far more modern than its age suggests. Forget "mumsy" - Amazone brings a unique bitter fruitiness that sets it apart from the crowd, pleasing some while intimidating others.

Its green, clean, and classic character makes it office-appropriate, though its bold opening might be too much for some. The unique profile suits elegant casual wear and could add a touch of sophisticated intrigue to a date night, but it's not a go-to for sport.

About

Opens with a sharp, verdant burst of galbanum and violet leaf, underscored by tart blackcurrant and redcurrant leaf, evolving into a sophisticated bouquet of orris, iris, and hyacinth. The journey culminates in a rich, earthy drydown of vetiver, oakmoss, and sandalwood, with a surprising subtle warmth from amber and cinnamon.
