Bright citrus meets resinous incense in Amouage Search, finished with peppery wood. Lemon, lime and mandarin orange make a sharp, sunny start. The heart is Omani green frankincense with elemi resin and black pepper, and the base of cade juniper, gaiac wood and vetiver dries down smoky and green.
It is unisex and made for daytime from spring through fall, casual enough for everyday wear. It was released in 2023. It lasts a long time and projects to about arm's length. The honest part: at this price, it scores lower on value than most bottles we track, blind-buy safety is below average, and opinion is fairly split, largely down to the smoky cade in the base.
Around $395.
