Epic Woman

Amouage, 2009, for women

spicy, smoky, rose and amber

Notes

Rose Petals, honey and a touch of wine; can lean fresh and dewy or deep and jammy.
Geranium Green, minty rose-leaf scent with a slightly metallic, lemony brightness.
Jasmine Sweet, heady white blossom with an indolic, almost animal warmth.
Tea Leafy, softly smoky and clean, ranging from fresh green to dark infusion.

Amber A warm, golden, resin-and-vanilla effect, soft, sweet and enveloping.
Musk Soft, clean, skin-like warmth, from fresh laundry to warm skin.
Oud Dark, resinous, smoky and slightly medicinal wood, with a rich, leathery depth.
Incense Dry, smoky and resinous, like smoke curling through a stone chapel.
Guaiac Wood Smoky, sweet and tea-like wood with a gentle, leathery warmth.
Iris Cool, buttery, powdery and slightly earthy, like lipstick and cold stone; taken from the root, not the flower.
Sandalwood Creamy, milky and softly sweet wood, smooth as polished timber.
Patchouli Earthy, damp and chocolatey, dark leaf with a camphor edge.
Vanilla Warm, creamy, sweet and slightly smoky, like a custard-soft cloud.
