Amouage Decision in plain words

What it smells like, how it wears and who it suits.

What it smells like

A bright, spicy start of bergamot and cardamom gives way to smoky incense and a resinous heart. It dries down into dry woods and a soft, sweet finish that stays warm for hours.

How it wears

The perfume community reports long-lasting wear, with some calling it exceptionally long, and strong projection, so it fills the air around you through the evening.

When to wear it

Wearers reach for it on autumn evenings first, and it also works on winter nights when you want something rich.

Who it suits

It suits people who enjoy incense and woods and like a perfume that makes itself known. It is better for an evening out than for a quiet desk.
