Lyric Woman stages a crimson rose in a swirl of spice and resin, opening with cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, and a lift of bergamot before the bouquet deepens into rose with angelica, jasmine, ylang ylang, geranium, and orris. The finish moves toward incense-toned woods with oakmoss, musk, patchouli, vetiver, sandalwood, vanilla, and tonka, creating an elegant, slow-burning aura that feels timeless and assured on skin.

Story and Positioning
Amouage presents Lyric as a floral oriental inspired by the rose, described as a melody held in time. The house specifies twenty-five percent perfume oil with a six-week ageing regimen that includes three weeks of maceration and three weeks of maturation, lending the scent its poised diffusion and longevity. For lovers of opulent rose colored by spice and incense, this stands as a refined statement within the house canon.
Bottle and Design
The feminine flacon appears in a rich garnet lacquer with rounded corners and a thick glass base that sits securely in the hand. A domed cap aligns neatly over a polished collar, while the raised sun seal and crisp lettering give the face a composed, gallery-like symmetry. The sprayer releases a smooth, fine cloud so a light press dresses pulse points evenly, and the presentation box cradles the bottle for an elegant unboxing moment.
