Amouage Overture Woman EDP

Description

Overture Woman is Amouage's dramatic answer to modern oriental perfumery, an opulent eau de parfum from the Omani house founded under the patronage of the Sultan of Oman, built by perfumer Annick Ménardo around a striking cognac accord. It opens on a boozy brandy-and-apple top laced with saffron, moves into a spiced heart of cinnamon, myrrh, and rose, and settles into a resinous base of leather, frankincense, and labdanum. The result is bold and dramatic rather than delicate, a fragrance for a woman who wants to command a room.
