Maison Francis Kurkdjian Amyris Femme was launched in 2021, created by Francis Kurkdjian with notes of lemon blossom, orange, amyris, iris, vetiver, musk and amber. A beautifully elegant perfume you can wear anywhere - wedding, office, night out. It is a clean scent rendered much more interesting that most clean scents I've smelled. There is something so hopeful in it, where it feels like eventually everything will work out. If BR540 is an MFK that doesn't work for you, Amyris may definitely be perfect, though it seems to have wildly different perceptions based on chemistry or how you smell certain notes. This is the edp, eau de parfum. It's also become a TikTok Rich Girl Perfume Fave.
Fragrantica - "This is definitely a scent that deserves the hype it gets. It's an incredible blend of woodiness and florals with a bit of citrus to it that makes the final fragrance lean more toward the feminine side. This scent is what I imagine when I think of Juliet as she sat at her window in that balmy midsummer, wondering about Romeo who was just below, longing for her as much as she was for him. This is fresh sugared citrus yet at the same time it's a warm cup of spiced and honeyed tea during a late night. This is a fairie or a fae, it's unpredictable yet that unpredictability is what gives it charm. It's all encompassing and fresh in a way that reminds you of a new Spring. It's a new lover, an old friend, and a beginning in the middle of a story. "
Fragrantica - "Oh my God… I really didn’t want to love this perfume because it’s so expensive, but I just got a sample in the mail today and I’m sure it’s all I’ll be thinking about for weeks. Gorgeous, balanced, warm floral with a citrusy opening, grounded with vetiver, and not a hint of old lady. It’s modern, fresh, feminine and absolutely stunning. 10/10."
Fragrantica - "Absolutely gorgeous. Lately, I tend to enjoy more unisex fragrances, but Amyris Femme is one exception. The combination of florals and citrus is unlike any other perfume I’ve ever smelled. It may seem simple to some, but on my skin, it’s a highly unique, fresh scent."
Fragrantica - "This has become a very dear favorite. When i first smelled it ,it transported me back to youth when life seemed mysterious and hopeful and not too jaded. It’s beautiful"
Fragrantica - "I get the hype for this scent-I’ve never smelled anything like it and on me it smells so earthy and woody, like being out hiking in the woods the day after a rainstorm. It’s fresh, light, and feminine. It’s my signature scent and I will be repurchasing over and over again."
