An olfactory expression of the value of time. Created through a revolutionary process: a double infusion with sandalwood and handcrafted oak barrels.
Each fragrance is highly concentrated, containing 30% pure perfume oils, and has undergone a meticulous six-month maturation process, including a double infusion with sandalwood flakes and oak barrels, for a profound and layered olfactory experience. Housed in a new bottle – the first new design introduced by Amouage in 15 years – the Essences represent the pinnacle of olfactory craftsmanship.
Reasons by Bertrand Duchaufour
Cause and effect. Echoes of thought. A sequence of events.
In its early stages, Reasons is rather unassuming: its nutty opening presents a comforting yet perhaps surprisingly understated warmth. But within moments, the scent grows, taking on an increasingly grand form. The partly herbaceous and partly fruity personality of davana creates layer upon layer of depth and complexity. Finally, the smoky woodiness of palo santo introduces a resonant, grounding earthiness, rooting the whole in a sense of harmonious and timeless stability.
With tremendous complexity and gravitas, Reasons conveys the idea that while the past may be gone, its effects live on forever, supporting the present and imbuing it with meaning, depth, and value.
