Dia 40 by Amouage opens on aldehydes and cyclamen, given a tart edge by blackcurrant and a green lift from violet leaf, with musk already present from the first minute. The heart is a full bouquet: rose, orange blossom, carnation and ylang-ylang, sharpened by bay leaf and tarragon and grounded by cistus. The base runs long and layered, orris, sandalwood, amyris and guaiac wood building a powdery, woody close that takes its time to settle. It suits men and women who want a floral with real structure rather than something quick and light. Voters keep it for fall and winter, mostly in the evening and at night. Longevity leans long-lasting and sillage leans strong in the votes, so it fills a room slowly and stays. A 3ml decant is enough to sit with it across a few cold evenings before deciding on more.

The community verdict
Aldehydes, blackcurrant and cyclamen introduce Dia 40 before carnation and bay leaf settle into orris and guaiac wood. Wear divides between long-lasting and exceptionally long-lasting; strong projection leads, though some find it room-filling. Its woody floral character suits winter evenings, with autumn and night working too.

More from Amouage
Amouage was founded in Oman in 1983, and its perfumes still carry the country's long history with frankincense and resins. Expect rich, layered compositions: incense and labdanum, saffron and cardamom, rose and jasmine over sandalwood and oud, made to unfold slowly rather than announce themselves. Guidance is the newer face of the range, woody and softly fruity on a warm amber base. Interlude Man is the resinous, spicy one, while Reflection Man sets clean white florals over woods. Honour Woman is a bright, green tuberose for anyone who likes flowers with backbone. A small decant of two or three shows which side of Amouage suits you.
