Amouage

Lyric Woman

“Cardamom, cinnamon, and Turkish rose over incense — Amouage's spicy floral feminine, dense and serious.”

Lyric Woman
warm spicy
woody
rose

Daniel Maurel's 2008 counterpart to Lyric Man: a rose heart spiced with cardamom, set over an incense and sandalwood base. Warm-spice and woody accords lead, with rose and amber beneath. It reads warmer than its counterpart, carrying the spice into a woody, balsamic drydown. Guerlain's 2024 Rose Amira sits close in profile. Wears strongest in fall and winter, evening-leaning.
