Amouage Search EDP
Amouage Search EDP
Description
Search is Amouage's zesty, smoke-tinged citrus, a contemporary unisex eau de parfum from perfumer Alexis Grugeon that opens with a bright wash of lime, lemon, and mandarin before shifting into a resinous, peppery heart of frankincense and elemi. The base of cade oil, vetiver, and guaiac wood gives it a smoky, tar-like woodiness that keeps the citrus from ever reading as simple or sweet. It's Amouage's take on a fresh fragrance, sharper and more resinous than most citrus scents on the market.
