AMOUAGE UNVEILS ITS NEWEST FRAGRANCE
The fifth chapter of the second cycle of the Amouage narrative by Creative
Director Christopher Chong, Portrayal, is a manifestation of a person’s
orientation to him or herself, and a reflection of his or her unique
authenticity. “A person who dares to defy the norms of their society,
Portrayal is for the bold,” says Chong. “It is inspired by times of dramatic
social change and the people who pushed beyond the limits of mass
culture during their times. It is a reflection of the birth of a new age and
the freedoms that come with it.”
Portrayal Man is an olfactive depiction of 1920s bohemian culture. Its
woody and leather aroma exudes an air of exquisite audacity. With Vetiver
at its heart and top notes of Violet Leaves, Portrayal Man emits a dandy
yet masculine impression. Its light spicy facet enriches its woody base of
Cade, allowing the fragrance to illustrate an enlightening energy that is
unforgettable. At the heart of Portrayal Woman, meanwhile, is a smoky yet
sweet mélange created by the fusion of Craven ‘A’ Tobacco with a dusting
of Vanilla. Brought together with Jasmine at its top and Elemis at its base,
it recreates 1920’s liberation. The floral fragrance is for the poised and
playfully refined woman who dares to defy.
For Portrayal, Amouage’s signature glass crystal bottles boast an iridescent
pearl finish adorned with a blue Swarovski crystal. The boxes are a
delicate dusty blue with an elegant art deco-inspired jacquard.
