Decision
Decision by Amouage is an unisex eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with pink pepper, bergamot and cardamom, moves into frankincense, juniper berry and myrrh and dries down to patchouli, cedarwood and vanilla. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
Heart
- Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.
- Juniper Berry Gin, basically. Piney, dry and bracing.
- Myrrh Bitter, smoky resin. Ancient-smelling and slightly cool.
Dry-down
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
