Kenzo Kenzo Amour Le Parfum is a Parfum launched in 2008, created by Daphné Bugey. The fragrance opens with Basmati Rice and Incense, settles into a heart of Frangipani and Patchouli, and dries down to a base of Amber, Benzoin, and Vanilla.

Our verdict on Kenzo Amour Le Parfum: Acquired

A legendary scent, oft-mourned and highly sought after since its discontinuation. This oriental gem takes the original Amour's comforting rice-pudding sweetness and enriches it with a deep, smoky incense and benzoin embrace. It's a powerhouse of warmth and sophistication, but be warned: a light touch is key to avoid overwhelming its magic.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent projection and longevity, combined with its rich amber and incense profile, makes it less suited for a daily office wear. However, these same characteristics, along with its 'intoxicating' and 'sensual' nature mentioned by reviewers, make it perfect for date nights and formal events, particularly in cooler weather.

About

Imagine stepping into a warmly lit, ancient temple, where the air is thick with the sweet, creamy aroma of basmati rice, intertwined with hypnotic spirals of incense. Golden frangipani blossoms add a touch of exotic floral luxury, while a deep vein of earthy patchouli grounds the composition. The drydown melts into a rich, balsamic amber, warmed by sticky vanilla and resinous benzoin, creating an intoxicating, long-lasting embrace.
