Lyric:
With Lyric Woman, Amouage is redefining the use of rose in perfume by rendering the traditional note in a completely unique manner. Spicy and resinous, Lyric Woman is an oriental rose, rich, complex and intricate. The piquant character of the composition is apparent immediately: the top notes blend bracing bergamot with tangy ginger and contrast this cool accord with warm, velvety spiciness of cardamom and cinnamon. The regal, crimson rose, surrounded by a creamy, opulent posse of ylang ylang, jasmine and orris, retains that spicy character in the heart of the fragrance, due to the presence of fiery geranium.
- Top Notes: Rose, Lily-of-the-valley, Incense
- Heart Notes: Myrrh, Jasmine, Orris Root
- Base Notes: Cedar, Civet, Musk, Sandalwood, Amber
