SIU Agape — a fragrance of harmony and acceptance

SIU Agape is an eau de parfum from the Dutch brand SIU, launched in 2023.

This unisex fragrance was created for those who appreciate expressive yet comfortable compositions with a floral, oriental and softly gourmand character.

The name Agape refers to the idea of unconditional love, and the perfume’s scent is indeed perceived as warm, enveloping and open to individual interpretation.

SIU is a Dutch perfume brand whose collection includes unisex and women’s fragrances in eau de parfum concentration.

Agape continues this idea of versatility: the composition does not seek to emphasize exclusively masculine or feminine facets, but unfolds differently depending on the wearer’s skin, the temperature and their mood.

Character and olfactory style

SIU Agape is built around a combination of oriental warmth and floral transparency.

The fragrance balances a fresh citrus opening, the delicate powderiness of iris, the creamy sweetness of almond and a rich amber-woody base.

As a result, the composition feels both soft and noticeable, without excessive sharpness.

The opening is bright and clean: lemon adds sparkling freshness, while clary sage contributes a dry aromatic nuance.

As the fragrance develops, the citrus accord grows calmer, giving way to almond, iris and ylang-ylang.

In the dry-down, vanilla sweetness, warm amber and noble oak emerge, creating a cozy, slightly creamy finish.

Special attention should be paid to almond: it softens the transition from the fresh opening to the rich base and gives the composition a delicate gourmand nuance.

Combined with iris, it may smell powdery, while alongside vanilla it becomes creamier and rounder. Ylang-ylang adds a sunny floral facet to the heart without making the fragrance overly sweet.

Notes pyramid and development on the skin

SIU Agape’s olfactory profile combines amber, aromatic, citrus, floral, gourmand, white-floral and woody facets.

This combination makes the fragrance multifaceted: it moves from a fresh, slightly herbal opening to a soft floral heart and then to a warm vanilla-woody base.

The composition belongs to the oriental and floral fragrance families.

It develops gradually on the skin, so the first impression may feel lighter and fresher, while after some time the density of amber, the sweetness of vanilla and the dry texture of oak become more apparent.

Longevity, sillage and dosage

SIU Agape has moderate sillage: the fragrance is noticeable within personal space and leaves a neat trail, but does not seek to fill the entire room.

It is a good choice for those who value expressiveness without excessive volume. Longevity and intensity may vary depending on skin type, weather and the amount applied.

For application to the skin, one or two sprays are enough for the composition to unfold in several stages.

One or two sprays are also recommended on clothing, preferably from a short distance and onto a fabric that is not susceptible to contact with perfume.

In cool weather, the amber-vanilla base becomes more noticeable, while warmth brings out the citrus and floral facets more vividly.

The creators and the fragrance experience

SIU Agape was created by Maud Chabanis, Batiste Jamo and Xavier Blaisot.

The work of several perfumers can be felt in the carefully crafted balance: the fresh top does not compete with the floral heart, while the warm base supports the composition without weighing it down.

Agape is suitable for everyday looks, relaxed meetings, the office and evening strolls.

It feels especially harmonious in autumn, winter and the transitional seasons, although its moderate sillage makes it suitable for wearing indoors at any time of year.

This is a fragrance for those who enjoy soft sweetness, powdery florals, refined woody accents and a versatile character.

If you would like to compare SIU Agape with other compositions, consider Yves Rocher Venice, Tiziana Terenzi Eclix and Mancera Aoud Blue Notes.

They reveal fresh, floral, amber and woody facets in different ways, so this comparison can help you understand Agape’s character more precisely and choose a direction for further exploration.

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The top notes of SIU Agape open with lemon and clary sage: the citrus note is fresh and sparkling, while the sage adds a slightly dry aromatic nuance to the composition.

Almond, iris, and ylang-ylang unfold at the heart.

Almond lends the fragrance softness and a subtle gourmand nuance, iris brings powdery elegance, and ylang-ylang adds a sunny white-floral facet.

The base is built around amber, vanilla, and oak. Amber creates a warm, enveloping effect, vanilla makes it creamier, and oak adds dry woody depth.

Overall, the fragrance pyramid combines citrus, aromatic, floral, gourmand, ambery, and woody accents.

The development moves from a fresh, slightly herbaceous opening to a soft floral heart, then settles into a cozy vanilla-amber finish.

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.

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.

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.
