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.
