Love Hibiscus
Love Hibiscus by Amouage is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with salted caramel, passionfruit and bergamot, moves into hibiscus, iris and frankincense and dries down to sandalwood, cypriol and vanilla. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Salted Caramel Caramel with a mineral edge. Less cloying than it sounds.
- Passionfruit Sharp, tropical and slightly sulphurous. Vivid and modern.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Heart
- Hibiscus Tart, lightly fruity petals. More juicy than perfumed.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Cypriol Also called nagarmotha. Smoky, leathery, earthy — a vetiver relative.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
