What a great review! I totally understand when you say it's a tough one to describe, it is one that has a certain smell that you just have to try to know what it's all about!
Love all your Amouage reviews! I'm waiting now for the Jubilation 25 one! For your personnal tastes, among Beloved Woman, Epic Woman, Lyric Woman and Memoir Woman, which one do you prefer the most? which of them would be the second one? and the third one?
Thanks!!! Hmm if I had to put them in order it would be. 1. Memoir 2.Epic 3. Lyric 4. Beloved. HOWEVER, my best Amouage fragrance ever is OPUS IX. (9). Nothing has come close to that one since, the big jasmine, back pepper and Animalic one. It's truly dark and gorgeous.
I just received this is the mail today. I must admit I was so put off at first. First thought was Oh My Goodness I made a bad buy. However, I forgot I need to wait for the dry down. 😅 I can’t keep my hand away from nose it smells so good!!! It is difficult to describe as mentioned, but I am really enjoying this. Amouage has become one of my favorite houses for sure. This is my 4th fragrance from them. Looking to get my nose on Overture next.
You did a wonderful job on this review! It is a really though one to pick apart. I agree that it feels extremely French and vintage...I love that you referred to it as glamorous...it really is. I get complemented very often when I wear it. It really is beautiful and not what you would expect from Amouage! I have no evidence, but I believe this could be Amouages nod to Bal A Versailles. Great review Tom!!!😘
I knew I wanted it to be my next Amouage review because it's SO beautiful but it was kinda LOOMING over me and that's sad. haha. I hate it when a fragrance betters me lmao. Sometimes they are supposed to just be Beloved and not dissected. :) I love this one.
ouch110 Fragrance Reviews I’m glad you love it! I think it gets lost in the sea of “Arabic” scents that they release, and that makes me sad. I hope your review will encourage more people to try it. The opening is weird, but I find most openings to be a bit off putting, especially the first time bc you have no clue what’s coming lol.
Yes Amouage openings can be head scratchers but they are always worth the wait. I have SO many more Amouage samples I need to review. I think I will do Dia next. It's kinda a similar feeling to this one but a bit darker. The drydown? Wow.
ouch110 Fragrance Reviews I haven’t tried that one yet, I’ll be looking for that review to decide if I wanna give it a go! I’ve heard mixed reviews on it...you have a way of reviewing scents that I really feel like I can judge by. You are really great at what you do!
Beloved Woman will be my fifth Amouage. I am a Guerlain devotee, but I have grown to love Amouage very much. How would you rate Beloved, Dia, Ciel, Ubar, and Jubilation 25 from most favourite to least favourite? Do you plan to review the new Harrod's exclusive Overture Woman any time soon? The notes look wonderful, but with so few reviews, it would be a risky blind buy at full retail price.
Hello! I actually emailed Amouage just to be cheeky and see if they would send me samples of some of the new things but haven't had a reply in weeks. :( From least fave to fave I would say. 5. Ciel 4. Ubar 3. Jubilation 2. Beloved 1. Dia. :)
I love love love your videos!!! Please would you share where you get your samples from in the UK? I’m a bit skeptical about ordering from some places because I worry the samples aren’t genuine or they add a ton of alcohol to dilute it! Thank you xx
Thank you! Some of them I got directly through Amouage, but I also got some from a site called Notino. There is also a great sample site called Fragrance Samples Uk. They have Amouage there. :)
Wow that t shirt !!! I have smelled this but i forgot about it !! Have you tried Dia also by amouage ! I'm not sure what will your opinion be about it. I was thinking only yesterday if amouage come up with a new fragrance that matches this season and has a pumpkin note it,, imagining how will it be !!!!!!!
Haha thanks. Oh yes I have tried Dia it's another beautiful one and I think it kinda feels a bit like this in terms of tone and character. I will review my sample eventually too! I try to do at least one Amouage a month. I'll make that one the next one. :)
A powdery floral bouquet with slight animalic-leathery (myrrh, civet, castoreum?) incense (vanillin and frankincense) background. In the same category as Shalimar eu De Cologne (the leathery one) ? I feel that because of the nearly sickly sweet density of this perfume, the "Guerlinade accord," might be in this perfume? Here: perfumeshrine.blogspot.ca/2009/09/history-of-guerlinade-accord-original.html *Notes I get: ylang ylang is definitely the most prominent top floral note, I get a lot of powdery iris woody scent too (alpha/beta ion on). The violet floral seem more prominent than the rose/jasmine bouquet of florals. I also get a woody floral in there too...which might be a tiny amount of carrot seed e.o.? in combination with camomile and the ionones? Not certain :-( I get middle eastern resins in the background (likely benzoin, frankincense, myrrh and vanilla) probably some coumarin to add lift to the middle notes + I get some civet as well (the civet/vanilla/ jasmine combo a near urine/honey/deer musk scent)as well as numerous spices... perhaps nutmeg, anise, several others? Because of the cool, smooth oily fine grain wood texture (again very fine grain, not DRY like cedar or anything) of the scent I wouldn't be surprised if there was a small amount of sandalwood in here either. Like you said, this is a PERFUME perfume. SELF REFERENTIAL... its supposed to be a perfume - well balanced, and ***not representative of anything in nature.***Glamorous, French, 1920`S Yes!! All in all a very well balanced scent...I completely agree hard to pick out the motes for sure. :-) Were I forced to guess the central materials: bergamot, ylang ylang e.o., ylang ylang absolute, synthetic violet powders, frankincense, myrrh, rose, vanillin, sandalwood.
Based off my two favorite perfumes (Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb and DKNY Be Delicious) which Amouage perfume do you recommend? Or any other perfume you recommend for my palette?
What is performance like? How are projection and sillage? I generally expect arm's length projection or better with Amouages. Is this one pretty close to skin and quiet??
This one is one of the softer ones from Amouage, but still with great longevity. Projection isn't a much as say myths or some of the opus line but with them? You're always gonna get good longevity. 6 hours upwards.
I adore this one. I love all of Amouage perfumes, my favorite house, even more than Tom Ford.
I love them too, I have a few now and enjoy wearing them lots!!!
What a great review! I totally understand when you say it's a tough one to describe, it is one that has a certain smell that you just have to try to know what it's all about!
Yes! I have found the same with "Dia" too which I think will be my next Amouage review. They just smell of "one thing" very difficult.
Love all your Amouage reviews! I'm waiting now for the Jubilation 25 one!

They're really cool if you like opulence! I enjoy many of them for their complexity and that they aren't boring. :)
Great review, I was wondering if I should go ahead with 10ml decant as opportunity opened up ... After watching this video, I`m definatly hitting it!
I love your amouage videos and how you go about explaining fragrances. I feel like you hit them on the head. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! Will do!
I love your reviews. Ur the best fragrance reviewer on You Tube.

@@ouch110 Hi! Interesting. Dia is the next one on my radar from their back catalog.

Based off my two favorite perfumes (Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb and DKNY Be Delicious) which Amouage perfume do you recommend? Or any other perfume you recommend for my palette?
I would definitely start with their "love" line. Lilac Love, Blossom Love and also, Sunshine. :)
What is performance like? How are projection and sillage? I generally expect arm's length projection or better with Amouages. Is this one pretty close to skin and quiet??
This one is one of the softer ones from Amouage, but still with great longevity. Projection isn't a much as say myths or some of the opus line but with them? You're always gonna get good longevity. 6 hours upwards.
@@ouch110 Thank you. I thought it wore close to the skin and wondered if it was just my bottle or not. It is lovely, though.
Beloved verses Beach Hut woman?
Hi Ouch. Could you do a review on Donna Karan's Black Cashmere (round-shaped bottle)?
:( I don't have a sample I'm afraid. I think I used to but...I have NO idea where it's gone. It's not on my sample list. DAMN!
Do you still love this Amouage perfume? I would like to know what are your thoughts right now. 🤩
Wearable, classic French-style Amouage? Sold.
Hehe, yeah it's really lovely, I'm going to review Dia as my next Amouage and its also got the Frenchy feeling.
Would u do a review on Thierry
Mugler' s "Angel Muse " ??
Thanks 🙂
K Smith it's in the works!! I got the bottle last week
ouch110 Fragrance Reviews
