About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Amouage Myths, launched in 2016, is a smoky oriental for men that opens with a curious top note: a CSS rule. Ignore that digital artifact; the real composition begins with a heart of elemi, rum, vetiver, and rose. The elemi lends a resinous lift, while rum adds a boozy warmth that quickly gives way to earthy vetiver and a restrained rose. The base is where Myths earns its name: ash, leather, and labdanum create a dry, tarry foundation that smolders on skin. The ash note is literal and striking, evoking cold fire pits and smoked leather. Labdanum's sticky sweetness keeps it from turning acrid. With 100% smoky and 87% aromatic accords, this is not a shy fragrance. It suits collectors who appreciate dark, challenging compositions and want something distinct from typical Amouage opulence. Ideal for cool evenings, it demands confidence and a tolerance for ash. Not a crowd-pleaser, but a conversation piece for those who enjoy the smell of burnt offerings.
中文簡介
Amouage Myths 男士東方調,2016年推出。前調意外混入一段 CSS 代碼,可忽略;真正核心係中調嘅欖香脂、蘭姆酒、香根草同玫瑰。欖香脂帶樹脂感,蘭姆酒散發微醺暖意,香根草泥土氣息濃厚,玫瑰低調點綴。基調用灰燼、皮革同勞丹脂,營造乾燥焦油感,灰燼味寫實,似熄滅營火同煙燻皮革,勞丹脂嘅黏甜防止過於苦澀。煙燻感100%,芳香87%,絕非含蓄之作。適合追求暗黑、挑戰性香氣嘅收藏家,秋冬夜晚使用,需要自信同接受灰燼味。唔係討好大眾嘅香,但係獨特嘅話題之作。

Price ranges are compiled from our own recorded transactions, not from asking prices.
A batch code cannot prove authenticity on its own, but it can expose contradictions — a code that decodes to a date before the fragrance existed, or a bottle and box that disagree.
