Amethyst (for women)
Designer: Lalique Olfactive Group: Floral Fruity
!This perfume was presented in 2007. It was created by Nathalie Lorson of Firmenich, who enriched the top notes with nutmeg, blackberry and currant.
The heart beats with the accords of intoxicating rose, it is spiced with pepper, peony, lily and sweet, floral ylang-ylang. The base is powdery and soft with Bourboni vanilla and sensual musk.
The designer of the bottle is Lalique, of course, and it was inspired by Ralf Lalique’s object for bathroom, Epines – thorns designed in 1920. The bottle for perfume extract carries crystal blackberries on the top and is clothed in seductive purple. It is available as 50 and 100 ml edp and 50 ml perfume extract.

Don't like it. Nothing special. Too fruity. Too soapy. The scent doesn't match the bottle, which is wonderful. It shouldn't be purple. Maybe yellow.

It smells exactly like black current leaves or black current tea to me. I love the scent and i thought i will love the fragrance, but though the idea is wonderful i personally think the fragrance could be done better. It is very strong and after a while becomes overwhelming, especially in hot weather. The black current dominates and is not undertoned by almost any other ingredients. It pleases me for about 15 minutes and then i just get bothered.

My favourite for summer. Forest fruits and bourbon vanilla(the ylang ylang touch gives it a subtle freshness), that's how it smells on me and it is gorgeous, scuse the lack of modesty :))
Sweet perfume but not overpowering, a delightful one!!! Did I mention I love this? received compliments from men also(20-30 years old range to be more precise). Not your typical fruity floral they come up these days also(I picture Nina, the red one, etc...)

At beginning, this have an impressive and catching mixture of blueberry and pepper! ... soft sparkling black currant...
After few seconds appear a delicate peony...
The drydown its more floral, calm, energetic! This fragrance have much personality, and definitively confirm the very good taste of Nathalie Lorson :)
Its elegant and perfect for work activities, and for extrovert women, in my opinion.

At the very beginning this one releases something I thought woody and very strong black currant with a bit of blueberries. It'd be nice but at first there's a feeling of Vodka + Black currant juice that really makes me sick (the same story with Amor Amor Tentation) But it wasn't that intense as Tentaion, so I suffered and waited until alcohol evaporates. Now, after few hours it's woody and still black currant on me. I can feel pepper and peony too. I find it quite wearable only I'm not sure if I like it.
Staying power and projection seems ok.

I was always unsure about this scent, so i tested it again and i find it quite nice. The black currant note is very dominat and i smell some blackberries and blueberries out of it, ist a very juicy scent which reminds me also on bordeaux red wine. I dont find something soapy there, i think „Amethyst“ is good for summer. I like this fragrance more than Perles, maybe because of the fruity sort, its currently my favorite from lalique. The bottle describes the scent very well, if i could give this smell a colour it would be „purple“ of course. I found nothing wrong there, so 4 of 5 stars.

Very strong black-currant and maracuja fruity note. Nothing outstanding, but very long-lasting and nice on young girls. Have to confess that it was the flacon only I was interested in...
The fragrance is rather artificial, the fruity impact emerges from potent aromachemicals. Can give you a headache...

Oh my God.J'adore that fragrance.The black currant is so irresistible.I had the perfume since 10 months and i can get more and more.I could not resist it!

very nice bottle,if the perfume was just a bit closer to my chemistry I would buy it.
it smells so so.it's not bad,but not something that people remember.I can even hardly smell something from it.
peony and ylang-ylang are not my cup of the tea.
I should confess that it's a very sophisticated perfume,not provocative nor sexy,but concentrates on MIND not BODY.
it smells a bit like soap,if you can smell something at all.

I love the smell of pure black current in the top notes. It's so fresh and juicy,- simply wonderful! But unfortunately my skin chemistry doesn't work with it - the black currant scent disappears quite fast leaving just a soapy lingering scent.

Could not resist the Lalique bottle and the fragrance is an explosion of floral ecstasy. This was purchased on a whim and a surprise find indeed!

I received a free sample of it actually and immediately loved it because it is a very nice scent. It seemed to linger 4 hours. This will definately be my next scent!
10/28/08 07:51:51
Yes, exactly: fresh floral. Very nice everyday-scent.
06/26/08 05:49:23
It's a very fresh floral scent. Perfect for a sunny spring or summer day.
