About This Perfume
Amarige by Givenchy is a Floral fragrance for women. Amarige was launched in 1991. The nose behind this fragrance is Dominique Ropion. Top notes are Orange Blossom, Peach, Plum, Neroli, Brazilian Rosewood, Violet and Mandarin Orange; middle notes are Tuberose, Mimosa, Gardenia, Ylang-Ylang, Jasmine, Black locust, Carnation, Black Currant, Red Berries, Rose, Cassia and Orchid; base notes are Sandalwood, Amber, Woody Notes, Vanilla, Musk, Tonka Bean and Cedar. The name of the perfume 'Amarige' is an anagram of the French word 'Mariage.' That is why this fragrance is as intensive as a strong feeling, merry, juicy and unforgettable as a moment of happy mariage. It is so opulent and floral that it seems like its composition includes all the beautiful flowers that exist in the world. The Amarige woman is graceful, playful and charming, a real French woman in love. She radiates joy and gives a happy smile. The top notes are composed of fresh fruit: peach, plum, orange, mandarin, with the sweetness of rose wood and neroli. The floral bouquet, very intense and luscious, is created of mimosa, neroli, tuberose, gardenia and acacia with a gourmand hint of black currant. The warm woody base is composed of musk, sandalwood, vanilla, amber, Tonka bean and cedar. The perfume was created by Dominique Ropion in 1991.
