Amouage Unveils the Romantic Floral Adventure of Blossom Love
International luxury brand, Amouage, introduces Blossom Love. This new fragrance is the most recent addition to its floral themed The Secret Garden Collection in which thoughts, feelings and experiences are freely explored without the complications of the contemporary world
“Blossom Love is inspired by the sassy nature and loyal heart of the vivacious modern woman. She defies conventions as she unabashedly lives for love, romance and new adventure,” explains Amouage Creative Director, Christopher Chong.
Blossom Love reveals the romance of a perfumed secret garden where the light, sweet and delicate nature of cherry blossom nectar marries with rose to reveal inner boldness, and a memorable heart caressed by the exotic sophistication of Ylang Ylang. This floral love story is embraced by the seductive allure of amaretto, tonka bean, and vanilla before melting into sandalwood and cashmeran, to create an intense and enduring fragrant bouquet of memories.
Classically elegant, the timeless flower motif of the Blossom Love presentation box evokes memories of precious moments and tender feelings. The delicately curved rose pink bottle is quintessentially feminine and romantic, while the sparkling light rose Swarovski crystal on the cap emotes joy and love in bloom.
Blossom Love will be available exclusively at all Amouage stores in Oman, GUM and TSUM in Moscow and Harrods in London starting February 1st, followed by all Amouage standalone stores worldwide in March and all other stockiest in April 2017.

The Scoop
The concept of “sacred geometry, ” the inspiration behind Oud For Greatness, is that recurring symbols and motifs- including the sacred scent of oud- are so powerful and holy that they are imbued with these hidden connections to the world at large, transcending the material plane to align those who smell it with the vibrations of the universe. In other words, experiencing the true scent of oud is a tonic for physical, emotional, and spiritual health. With Oud For Greatness, Initio taps into that hidden source of power, delivering a vibrant, sensual, richly spicy fragrance deeply imbued with oud from beginning to end. It’s a highly concentrated blend of pure, natural agarwood oil and natural oud wood, a rich accord that melds the dark, spicy, sweet, and smoky characteristics of this precious substance into an impossibly complex elixir, both energetic and contemplative, narcotic and seductive. An additional burst of savory spice comes by way of a rich blend of saffron and nutmeg, while bright lavender pushes it towards the sexy and masculine- though make no mistake, this scent is devastatingly sexy on men and women alike. While it might seem inexact to say that a fragrance offers something for everyone, we don’t know how else to describe Oud For Greatness- we suppose a perfume this in tune with the hidden patterns of the world ought to smell this downright incredible.

JUS INTERDIT
Woody, spicy, oriental
Sometimes too much isn't enough. In matters of sensuality, excess can never be exaggerated. In the great Oriental tradition, Jus Interdit plays the sorcerer and toys with the limits of decency, daring to defy propriety by invoking generous proportions of oud, patchouli, cedar and benzoin. A sumptuous mukhallat dedicated to 21st Century princes and princesses, overtly solar, immensely opulent, infinitely addictive.
Hyrax, patchouli, bemzoin
Woody
These Sombres Dessins have replaced a ‘g’ with an ‘s’, abandoning Machiavellian and slightly worrying dark designs to instead give free reign to draw on the consummate art of conquest. A dark and shadowy seducer, this perfume plays on emotions and is always three moves ahead on the chessboard of feelings. Hot and urbane, spicy and sensual, he kindles the fire that is under the ice. When finesse is coupled with unfailing instinct, resistance is futile.
PAVILLON ROUGE
Woody, oriental
As daylight starts to decline, a schooner is busy readying itself to dock. It’s distinctive lines leave no doubt to the sharpened eye of an onlooker. “This one must be a privateer…” mumble the old people assembled in the port as they gaze across at the looming warship; “he must have made a mistake, docking here!” As the wind rises there can be no more ambiguity for a Jolly Roger slams into view and whistles a Memento Mori that reminds us that life is fragile, so we must live it well. But here the skull and crossbones are emblazoned on a red flag, meaning a short but good life is better!
Sucked in by the promises of the amber and vanilla aromas of rum and whiskey, a buccaneer rushes out onto the dock and blends into the crowd for a fleeting moment of tranquility during his overnight stopover. He knows that his proud ship will be gone before dawn. Disappeared completely, leaving only a trail of exotic spices and the precious woods of the treasures that fill his holds alongside the promise he made to an elegant woman to return one day “provided God gives her life”.
A perfume of conquest and adventure, Pavillon Rouge is an ode to life. It invites conquering both day and night, without any fear and with the confidence of those who have braved death for some long-lost fortune or legendary glory.
Whisky, leather, ebony
INCIDENT DIPLOMATIQUE
Woody, aromatic
We brush by it, we risk it, without ever thinking about the consequences… Incident Diplomatique clearly possesses its share of superb provocation – bold, owned, and entirely inevitable when desire exudes from our every pore. As unexpected as it is audacious, the fragrance refuses convention and knowingly parades itself. Just as we might give into a staggering impulse too strong to resist, it declares its urges, teasing tension to the breaking point…
Vetiver, mandarine, patchouli
