Lyric Man

Lyric Man was launched by Amouage in 2008. Daniel Visentin signs the formula, presented in Eau de Parfum. Lyric Man exists in three sizes: 2 ml, 10 ml and 100 ml.

Top

Bergamot and lime open the composition. Bergamot brings a fruity freshness tinged with sugar; lime, with its acidic liveliness, adds a light bitterness to this freshness. These citrus notes give the opening a clean brightness, ahead of the rose and spices.

Heart

The rose takes on a warm turn, of honey and wax; orange blossom extends this wax toward sugar and powder. Angelica brings a herbaceous and woody greenness, galbanum a sharp anise-tinged freshness. Spicy and warm ginger, woody and fresh nutmeg, saffron with leathery and tar accents make up the spicy side.

Base

Sandalwood gives the base a velvety, warm wood. Musk adds an animalic warmth, olibanum a mineral and spicy woody note. Pine brings its resin and holiday scent, while vanilla, sweet and spicy, rounds out the accord with its warmth.

Oriental

The oriental family is recognized by its warm, resinous or ambery materials. In Lyric Man, vanilla, olibanum and sandalwood carry its foundation, while saffron, ginger and nutmeg give it its spicy part, whose warmth the honeyed rose shares.

What the Label Declares

Geraniol and citronellol, constituents of rose essence, echo the rose in the heart; limonene, linalool and citral are found in citrus fruits like bergamot and lime. Eugenol and isoeugenol evoke clove. Also present are hydroxycitronellal, alpha-isomethyl ionone, farnesol, benzyl benzoate and salicylate, benzyl alcohol.
