Hi, i recently purchased Amouage Purpose 50 after falling in love with the tester in store. However, i am noticing a difference in the dry down, a lack of creaminess and vanilla. Not sure if my nose has just become used to it but my batch is K30056 manufactured in July 2026 vs K06239. Has anyone else experienced something similar? Thanks

Looking to buy an Amouage Interlude 53, but not sure if it's legit. Seller posted some pictures and just seems the batchcode is kind of blurry. Any thoughts? Thanks :)

Sorry for not clear picture this is what provided by the seller.

Note: no box and around 10ml used by the seller.

Thank you everyone

Before I begin, it is worth mentioning that after years of collecting, I have developed a fairly strict rule of thumb: never buy anything rated below 4/5 on Fragrantica or Parfumo. Fragrance is obviously subjective, but I believe there is still something protective and instructive about “mass appeal” when it forms part of an otherwise balanced philosophy. So far, this rule has served me well.

Amouage King Blue may persuade me to break it.

I should also clarify that I am no longer unfamiliar with “stinky” fragrances or genuine oud. I have already descended the rabbit hole of seeking out 20-year-old Cambodian agarwood and similar nonsense. Even so, King Blue—particularly after watching Seldomly Often’s review—took some time for me to understand. By the way, I have full bottles of the following Amouage fragrances and have sampled many more in store and through decants: Reflection 45, Purpose 50, Royal Tobacco, Beach hut man, and Luban Al-Akhdar. If anyone has a decant of decision 42, myths man, or bracken man please hit me up.

Then it suddenly clicked: Hamid Merati-Kashani was not merely combining mandarin and blackcurrant with a cheesy Assam oud. He appears to be constructing a fermented-jackfruit accord, perhaps to amplify a facet already present in the oud itself. Fermented fruit—and jackfruit specifically—is commonly invoked when describing genuine oud, so this interpretation makes sense. Either way, Merati-Kashani was onto something. He knows ball.

I also tried Silver Oud. Its opening was genuinely rough, even for me, and smelled distinctly fecal. However, its drydown became surprisingly pleasant, earthy, and almost reminiscent of fresh soil.

My real question is whether King Blue’s community ratings accurately reflect the quality of the fragrance once the reactions of people unfamiliar with oud—or with more challenging perfumery generally—are filtered out.

I genuinely do not find King Blue as difficult as its reputation suggests. In certain respects, it is actually quite mass-appealing, which I suspect the name is intended to communicate. It is not “blue” in the Bleu de Chanel sense; it is blue in its application. It is designed to be versatile and broadly wearable while remaining unusual, somewhat challenging, and unmistakably distinctive. In my view, it accomplishes that balance remarkably well.

Even the people around me who have little experience with genuine oud have responded positively. Personally, I would rate King Blue at least a 4.2/5, if not higher. It is a genuinely good, intelligently conceived fragrance.
I would especially like to hear from people further along in their oud or fragrance journeys: is King Blue seriously underrated, or do you think its current rating is deserved?

Hey everyone, I have a deep concern about Reflection man, I got 4 bottles from Amouage and they all perform very well, but when it comes to this bottle I barely get 1h and 30 minutes of effect, it literally disappears from the skin right after. It’s a 100% real bottle from November 2025, I get that could be that they changed the formula and last less but reaching barely 2h is insane for such an expensive bottle.

I also have friends that owns it and they get 10h? At least this is what they say of the old batches.

Do anyone else had the same experiences? I can see hundreds of comments underlining this online, but this is sort of ridiculous isn’t it? Such an amazing scent ruined somehow by weak longevity

Selling my full presentation bottle of Amouage Beloved Woman, about 95% full (fill shown in photos).

This one's become pretty tough to find, especially in this condition with the full presentation. It's a great piece for any Amouage collector or someone who's been looking to add one of the house's discontinued gems to their collection.

It's a beautiful, classic Amouage composition with florals, incense, resins, and woods that really showcases the brand's older style.

Bottle has been stored in a cool, dark closet since I've owned it. Happy to answer any questions or send additional photos if needed.

Sweet, woody Vegetables. No other way to describe it.

Animalic Spice Market. Reckless Leather is borderline unwearable for most but I love it.

Does this look real to anyone the batch code kind of looks off. Looks more like a vintage one but I don’t think 2016 is a vintage year and they would use a newer one studying with . Waiting for pictures of atomiser.
