Evolution & Experience

Amarige opens with a vibrant burst of juicy fruits—peach, plum, and mandarin—tempered by flutters of neroli, orange blossom, and violet, making for a radiant and fruity‑floral introduction. As it blooms, the heart delivers a lush bouquet of white and yellow flowers: tuberose, gardenia, jasmine, mimosa, ylang‑ylang, and orchid, with spicy carnation and sweet berries enhancing the floral richness. In the dry‑down, the fragrance transitions to a warm, comforting base: sandalwood, vanilla, amber, musk, cedar, and tonka bean lend a creamy, sensual finish that lingers.

Longevity & Projection

Amarige is known for being long‑lasting with strong projection. It fills the air, makes its presence known, and stays on clothing and skin for many hours. It’s not discreet—it’s made to shine.

Best Use / Occasions

Best for special occasions, evening wear, weddings, or times when you want to feel particularly radiant and luxurious. It works beautifully in spring, fall, and mild winter climates when its floral richness and warmth are comfortable rather than overwhelming.

Character & Vibe

Amarige is luxurious, exuberant, romantic, and feminine. It has an old‑school glamour — rich, heady florals entwined with fruity sweetness and warm woods. It makes a strong impression and evokes feelings of classic elegance and joyful beauty
