About This Perfume
Amouage Enclave smells like warm amber incense with spiced herbs and leather undertones. Spearmint, cardamom, cinnamon and pink pepper open it cool and spicy at once. Frankincense, patchouli, rose absolute and vetiver form a smoky, earthy heart, and Amber Xtreme, labdanum and Saffiano settle into a rich amber and leather base.
It reads unisex and works in every season, day or night. The community reaches for it on dates and nights out, when you want warmth with an aromatic lift. It launched in 2020.
It lasts a long time and projects enough to fill a room. At this price, the community rates its value below average, so wear a sample for a full day before deciding.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone who loves amber and incense with a fresh mint and spice opening.
- Sample first if: spearmint in a warm scent sounds unusual to you.
- Skip if: you want a sweet gourmand or a light daytime freshie.
Around $395.

Sandalwood, rose, and patchouli lead on notes, with frankincense and labdanum close behind. Prices run $80 to $590, with a $395 median, the highest of any brand on Scendira and well above mass-market Arabic houses.

Is Amouage Right for You?
Best for: shoppers who want niche, prestige-tier Arabic perfumery, with a resinous woody-amber-incense signature and a $395 median price. Sample first if: you're new to niche pricing; Amouage sits well above mass-market Arabic houses, so a decant or sample is the lower-risk way in. Skip if: you're working with a budget under $80; Amouage's entire catalogue starts above that floor.
Most-Discussed Amouage Perfumes on Scendira
