Scents of eras: how perfume reflects the spirit of the times
Every era has its own scent. Not literally, but in how it felt: what it wanted, what it feared, what...
Reflection 45 Amouage, that first saw the light of day in 2021, is positioned as a masculine fragrance, drawing from the fern, east, and balsamic families. The inspiration and craft behind the bottle belong to Lucas Sieuzac and Renaud Salmon. The fragrance is presented as eau de parfum.
Made in Oman, backed by a long and proud tradition. Reflection 45 Amouage unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The note pyramid of Reflection 45 is shaped as a living composition, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The signature of Amouage is recognizable from the opening to the final trail. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum emphasizes the depth and body this composition needs.
At the opening of the pyramid you detect spicy sparkling opening notes: Benzoin, Cardamom, Clary Sage and Juniper berries. These 4 notes shape voluminous spicy depth that is impossible to miss.
In the heart you notice Angelica, Iris, Jasmine, Neroli, Tonka bean and Vanilla keeping a velvety rose-iris direction.
The stylistic positioning is masculine, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
From the group perspective the profile is anchored in Balsamic, Spicy, Aromatic and Fruit. It also reaches into Green, Floral, Whiteflower and Gourmet. Within olfactory families the composition sits in Balsamic, East and Fern.
Overall Reflection 45 sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best judged through real development.
