The story behind the bottle.
Améline by Phlur was launched in 2018 with the expert hand of perfumer Nathalie Benareau. This fragrance opens with a bright citrus freshness that immediately lifts and invigorates, before transitioning into a heart of rose and soft florals. The base notes of woody accords and patchouli provide warmth and depth, grounding the composition in earthy sensuality. Améline is neither overly sweet nor heavy; instead, it balances brightness with richness, creating an elegant and versatile scent.
Apply Améline lightly but evenly for best results. The citrus notes are bright and can be overpowering if used too heavily, while the woody base takes time to develop its full depth. This fragrance is ideal for daytime wear, where it reads as both fresh and warm.
