House of Sillage Passion de l’Amour is a Parfum launched in 2014, created by Mark Buxton. Passion de l’Amour opens with Bergamot, Saffron, and Raspberry, settles into a heart of Amyris and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Oud, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Liatris Spicata. House of Sillage's Passion de l’Amour carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Divisive. Some will adore this bold, luxurious raspberry oud; others find the oud too dominant and challenging. Definitely not a blind buy.

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.

About

Passion de l'Amour bursts open with a bright, tart raspberry and a whisper of saffron, quickly joined by the citrus zing of bergamot. As it settles, a sweet, powdery amyris emerges, laced with a subtle lily of the valley. The dry down is a rich tapestry of deep, woody oud and earthy patchouli, softened by a creamy vanilla and a hint of a hay-like liatris, creating a sensual and complex experience.
