The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2008 by Amouage, Lyric Woman is a creation of perfumer Daniel Maurel that blends the brand's traditional Middle Eastern influences with modern olfactory artistry. This fragrance opens with a burst of cardamom and cinnamon, giving way to the heart notes of rose and ylang-ylang. The base notes of sandalwood, musk, and vanilla create an enveloping warmth, making it a scent that is both bold and intimate.
Lyric Woman has a long-lasting base that blooms over time. Apply it to pulse points for warmth throughout the day. It pairs well with a light jacket or sweater, allowing the fragrance to remain close to skin rather than filling a room.
