The Essences: Act II - The Geometry of Time An olfactory expression of the value of time. Crafted through a revolutionary process: a double-infusion with sandalwood and artisanal oakwood barrels. Each fragrance is highly concentrated, containing 30% pure perfume oils, and underwent a meticulous six-month aging process, including a double infusion with sandalwood chips and oakwood barrels, resulting in a deep, layered scent experience. Housed in a new bottle – the first new design introduced by Amouage in 15 years – the Essences represent a pinnacle of olfactory artisanship. Remain by perfumer Pierre Negrin A single dot - the origin, the pure potential, the spark from which creation bursts forth. Spices ignite the composition with green aromatic freshness, while carrot and bergamot add a golden glow. At the heart of this creation, vanilla emerges as a paradox, both raw and refined, primal yet velvety. Wrapped in the floral warmth of ylang-ylang and jasmine, it takes on a luminous, almost celestial quality. The base is a foundation of sacred frankincense, deep sandalwood, and castoreum, anchoring the fragrance in the very roots of perfumery’s history.
