Decision by Amouage is a Woody Aromatic fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Decision was launched in 2025. The nose behind this fragrance is Quentin Bisch. Top notes are Cardamom, Bergamot and Pink Pepper; middle notes are Frankincense, Juniper Berries and Myrrh; base notes are Vanilla, Cedarwood and Patchouli. Starting with an olfactory bolt of lightning, Decision banishes the darkness of uncertainty – an effect achieved through a combination of the cool woodiness and citrus-mineralic sparkle of Frankincense, Bergamot, Myrrh and Juniper Berries. After this striking opening, the light spreads further, aided by the gleaming sheen of Atlas Cedarwood. Finally, a warm Vanilla in the base conveys the profoundly liberating effect of acceptance. Uncompromising, distinctive and incandescent, Decision captures the paradox that lies at the core of all of life’s most powerful decisions: it is focused on its goal while remaining open to countless possibilities. 33% oil concentration, 5 weeks ageing: 3 weeks maceration, 2 weeks maturation
