Fragrance information:

Philosophy is more than just a brand—it is an entire philosophy of life born in New York. Its fragrances inspire you to seek beauty within yourself.

In 2015, My Philosophy Empowered was introduced—a women’s woody fragrance with a very strong sillage, released as an eau de parfum.

This fragrance is part of the My Philosophy collection, which consists of six complementary compositions. They can be worn individually or blended together to create your own unique bouquet.

Empowered, which translates as “endowed with strength,” adds velvety depth and mystery to the collection.

At the heart of the fragrance is soft, slightly smoky cashmere wood, accented by coniferous cedar and the most delicate amber.

This is a calm, harmonious scent that feels enveloping and feminine.

Thanks to its very strong sillage, it leaves a memorable trail, making it perfect for the colder months and evening outings.

If you liked Empowered, take a look at similar fragrances: Escentric Molecules Molecule 05, The Merchant of Venice Amber Crystal, and Michael Kors Stylish Amber.

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The composition of My Philosophy Empowered is built around three key notes that create a soft, smoky, enveloping woody profile.

At its heart is amber, which lends the fragrance warmth and sensuality. It is complemented by Cashmeran—a synthetic note with a velvety, woody-musky character.

The pyramid is completed by cedar, adding dryness, refinement, and a subtle coniferous freshness. Together, these ingredients create a harmonious, calm, and elegant sillage.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Very high (more than 12 hours)
5
Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage
Very conspicuous
5
Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

This perfume is undoubtedly the most memorable of the entire line. It's truly deeper and richer, feeling like a high-quality and multi-layered fragrance. It reminds me of sandalwood powder with a light milky and sweet nuance, as well as a slight oriental accent. A very cozy and warm scent that gives a feeling of comfort ))
