Kenzo Amour is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006, created by Olivier Cresp and Daphné Bugey. Amour opens with Rice and Tea, settles into a heart of Cherry Blossom, Heliotrope, and Frangipani, and dries down to a base of Musk, Vanilla, Incense, and Thanaka Wood. Kenzo's Amour carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

Kenzo Amour is the ultimate cosy hug in a bottle, perfect for those who crave warmth and comfort. It's a beloved classic for a reason, despite some chatter about its longevity and an unexpected 'Play-Doh' nuance from a vocal minority.

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.

Best For:

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Amour opens with a soft whisper of white tea and creamy basmati rice, quickly blossoming into a lush, powdery floral heart of frangipani, cherry blossom, and heliotrope. The base settles into a comforting, subtly musky vanilla laced with a hint of smoky incense and the unique, woody depth of Thanaka wood. It’s a lactonic vanilla dream that feels both delicate and enveloping.
