Lyric Woman

Inspiration
Lyric Woman is Amouage as a poetic rose aria, a fragrance inspired by the beauty and power of the rose and described as a song suspended in time. It opens with bergamot, cardamom, cinnamon and ginger that create a vivid spicy citrus shimmer, like light catching a crimson silk gown. The heart reveals a dark, velvety bouquet of rose, angelica, jasmine, ylang ylang, geranium and orris that feels lush, romantic and slightly enigmatic. In the base, oakmoss, musk, woods, patchouli, vetiver, sandalwood, vanilla, tonka bean and frankincense weave a rich oriental structure that is smoky, creamy and mossy at the same time. Launched in 2008, Lyric Woman has become one of the emblematic Amouage rose incense creations, a floral oriental that feels timeless, emotional and intensely memorable.

What our ParfuMaria team thinks of this fragrance
On our skin, Lyric Woman starts as a wave of warm spices around a deep, wine red rose, instantly recognisable as a true Amouage statement. The cardamom and ginger give a slightly dry, elegant lift so the rose never feels sticky or overly sweet. As the scent develops, jasmine, ylang ylang and orris add creaminess and texture, while the incense, moss and woods slowly rise to the surface and turn the composition into a smoky, resinous cocoon. Vanilla and tonka bean soften the base and create a smooth, almost velvety finish. If you love dramatic rose perfumes, incense rich orientals and long lasting niche fragrances with a distinctive character, Lyric Woman is a masterpiece that can easily become a signature scent.
