Lilac Love
Lilac Love by Amouage is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with lilac, heliotrope, peony and gardenia, moves into iris, cocoa and tonka bean and dries down to sandalwood, patchouli and vanilla. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Lilac Cool, powdery spring floral. Nostalgic and slightly soapy.
- Heliotrope Almond, vanilla and powder. Smells like marzipan and old-fashioned makeup.
- Peony Pink, watery and slightly peppery. Modern and inoffensive.
- Gardenia Creamy white floral with a mushroomy edge. Lush and old-Hollywood.
Heart
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Cocoa Dry, dusty chocolate. Bitter rather than sweet.
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
