Pernoire Amoral is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Andreas Wilhelm. Amoral opens with Smoke, Lime, Cardamom, and Cinnamon, settles into a heart of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Oud, Iris, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Amber, Orange Blossom, Sandalwood, and Tonka Bean. Pernoire's Amoral carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Amoral is a properly divisive beast - you'll either adore its audacious, inky, smoky plum or recoil from what some call industrial cleaner. It's a statement, not a crowd-pleaser, for those who march to their own beat and appreciate a truly unique, challenging scent.

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.

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.

About

Amoral opens with a punchy, almost inky smoke, spiced intensely by cardamom and cumin, with a dark, juicy plum providing a counterpoint. As it settles, a dry, antique woodiness emerges, often likened to a smooth, non-barnyard oud, softened by a subtle, powdery iris. The base rounds out with warm amber and tonka, maintaining that distinct, enigmatic depth.
