Amouage Decision EDP

Description

Amouage Decision is a brooding woody-aromatic incense fragrance built around frankincense, juniper and a luminous vanilla heart. Composed by perfumer Quentin Bisch for the Omani house Amouage and released in 2025, Decision opens bright and sharp before settling into a familiar, resinous incense drydown. Reviewers describe it as polarizing in the best way (sleek, sweet and serious) with one calling it a versatile all-year-round masterpiece.

Translation: a smoky frankincense-and-myrrh core lifted by bright bergamot and pink pepper, softened with juniper and clary sage, and grounded in a creamy vanilla-cedarwood drydown. Resinous and incense-forward, yet sweet and approachable.
