Amaranthine

Amaranthine is a deeply evocative, sensual floral-green perfume with a unique balance of creamy, musky, and spicy elements. It opens with a fresh, vegetal green note—often described as banana leaf or palm frond—mingling with cardamom, coriander, and tea, creating an immediate, almost intoxicating realism. Over time, it unfolds into a lush, warm floral heart dominated by ylang-ylang, jasmine, freesia, rose, and carnation, enriched with a pervasive yet subtle lactonic creaminess and skin-like musk. The drydown is smooth and intimate, featuring velvety vanilla, tonka bean, sandalwood, and a faintly animalic, musky warmth that lingers close to the skin. It is not an overpowering scent; rather, it feels personal, soft, and quietly seductive, like walking through a humid tropical garden at dusk. While many find it dreamy and complex—comparing it to a luxurious, edible, or even 'sensual' fragrance—the initial green notes can be intense and polarizing. Some perceive a slightly dirty or sweaty quality, akin to warm skin in a dense jungle, while others find it refreshingly natural and deeply aromatic. It’s best worn in spring or summer and is often reserved for evening or intimate moments, as its sillage is moderate and its close-to-skin presence can be overwhelming to some. While some struggle with its green, vegetal top note, many come to appreciate its evolving richness, especially in higher doses or in combination with other fragrances. It is a fragrance of contradictions: sweet and animalic, delicate and provocative, mysterious and authentic.
