Amyris Homme is a fragrance by Maison Francis Kurkdjian released in 2012. Mandarin and rosemary open the top, amyris, iris and chocolate make up the heart, while tonka bean and oud hold the base.
Mandarin, sun-kissed, sits alongside rosemary: one unfolds a tonic, sparkling acidity, the other its aromatic notes of thyme, laurel and marjoram.
Amyris, woody, and iris, powdery and woody as well, share the same woody facet in the heart; chocolate, sweet, joins them on a register of cocoa and almond.
Tonka bean, toasted and powdery, and oud, woody and animalic, occupy the base: the dry hay and vanilla of the one sit alongside the warmth and mystery of the other.
