Amouage Reasons Essence de Parfum

Cause and effect. Echoes of thought. A sequence of events. When it first emerges, Reasons is somewhat unassuming: its hazelnut opening presents a warmth that is comforting but also perhaps surprisingly unostentatious. But within moments, the scent grows, taking on an increasingly grander form. The part-herbaceous, part-fruity personality of davana creates layer upon layer of depth and complexity. Finally, the smoky woodiness of palo santo introduces a grounding, resonant earthiness – rooting the whole in a sense of timeless, harmonious stability.

With tremendous complexity and gravitas, Reasons conveys the idea that although the past may be gone, its effects live on forever, supporting the present, while giving it meaning, depth and value.

Reasons is authored by legendary master perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour. It is highly concentrated (30% perfume oil) and aged for six-months. It concurrently undergoes a double infusion with sandalwood chips and oakwood barrels, resulting in a deep, layered, and rounded scent experience.
