My favorite cologne
smells pleasant raspberry
scent of a good life and play
for young women who like to be considered by others

I bought this after I tried at the counter (on tester paper). I really love the smell, so classy, pretty and light. Totally likeable. It gives an impression of a young, beautiful, feminine high class woman. Not so common smell, so it can really makes people curious.

Too bad its not working really well with my body's chemistry. After a while on me, I got a headache and feels like I'm gonna be sick, makes me wanna puke. So I have to really wash it of with soap to make it completely disappear (which is not easy at all, the staying power is GREAT, by the way...).

So, if you wanna try it, go ahead, you might like it. But make sure you try it on you first, before you decide to buy. I really like this, too bad I just cant wear it.

a beautiful fragrance. very feminine, fruity, musky, woody . I love everything about it. Stays on my skin for all day and much longer on my clothes. Love it <3

Dear t for two gifted me this fragrance in her giveaway, and I absolutely love it! Despite the name and the color of the bottle, this is not a purple fragrance, or at least not what I call a purple fragrance. For me purple means violets. This is a juicy berry scent, that morphs into beautiful flowers, and it's classy, young, playful, and simply beautiful! The top notes are particularly gorgeous, I've never smelled such lovely black currants in a scent. It does smell boozy, a bit like black currant syrup, that is simply yummy. The flowers that emerge later are delicate and vaporous, the drydown is clean and soft. Sweet and very charming, this fragrance is presented in a lovely bottle, very feminine.
Recommended to all fruity florals lovers!!!

I had a sample - the fragrance was too dark for me, I remember. Berry notes well detectable, sweet ones. I didn't feel comfortable wearing Amethyst. In my imagination I saw a deep and wild forest, dark one and the berries hidden in it.

I do admit that the fragrance is interesting and classy if you like "purple" fragrances.

really nice purple scent, very blackberry-cassis on the top, a tiny bit too sugary drydown for me, but lovely and quite clean too!

This is very interesting scent. Reminds me compositions annick goutal , .Not some concrete scent but into which delicate manner the scent is developed on the skin . Then how joint are notes of fruit with of wood and a musk.
Subtle and Beautiful...

It is my signature perfume right now because I feel so fresh and clean when I wear this perfume. After a while I can feel the musk so obviously. I prefer it for sunny hot days.

i bought it and now im in a bad way with this perfume...not longevity,notspearding...oh my god....maybe since im in asian country,this perfume send for us in third quality...

Fresh and enticing! Love the opening so much..yummy but not the sweet "give you headache" floral-fruity like. So violet and so floral and it smells like those freshly picked purple fruits; blackberry, blueberry or grape. A unique and well balanced notes.

On my skin it seemed to be very linear, didn't develop to the the middle or base notes. As much as I love the smell, it doesn't linger long, just 2 hours max for me. So low quality for a Lalique. Too bad :(

Given similar name, I prefer Bvlgari Omnia Amethyst than this one for longevity..

my ex boyfriend he likes this perfume on me an he tried hard not to get busy :)

Although so many people seem to like this, it is nothing for me. I couldn't find anything that makes it special from all the other floral fruity scents either.

Yes it's fruity... somewhere beneath the strong and very dominant unsweet rose and that hint of.. what? Ashes? Strange impression to me at first. Lasts not very long on me and I can't make out the base at all. Muddled and flat nature. It might have some refreshing qualities on hot days, but I really like parfumes to be a bit more "beautiful". Won't buy it again.
PS But I love the bottle design!

extremly long lasting fragrance.A strong black berries juice scent last for days and days.

This is just such a wonderful fragrance. It's not your typical girly fruity perfume. Lalique is very refined, mysterious and sexy. Lasting power and sillage are excellent. The bottle is the perfect match for the scent. Purple is the color i imagine while wearing it.

Lalique Amethyst (EDP):
This is not a fruity-floral that we can easily find on the market: intense, exotic and a hint of oriental fragrance is truly unique and distinctive.
Opens with fruity notes (pepper and ylang-ylang and begin to unwrape) so sharp, unequivocal.
Develops toward the center and bottom very slowly, giving rise to musk and flowers, with a faint halo of faint vanilla. It is opulent, sensual, with very good length skin. I would say is an elegant fruit suitable for seduction, at night, even a major holiday.
-Very impressive.

My girl had bvlgari amethyste but EDT as they never tried to think about making EDP... and now I can tell this EDP made my day! As I really loved bvlgari's one but it only lasted for an hour or so.

8/10

The freshness of this perfume is different than others of its kind. Not too sweet, just has perfect balance to my nose. The kind of perfume that makes me want to keep sniffing on it. Bravo!

it's kind of weird that i don't like how this fragrance smelled on my skin at the beggining but i always got a compliment from people around me..so i started to love it:p

I can not understand where all those reviews about "alcohol" smell similarities coming from??? I personally hate alcohol specially smell of it, so would not ever wear any fragrances to make me smell like vodka.
Every time I wear this fragrance friends of mine comment on this fragrance that is very fruity and fresh.I would rather recommend it for warmer days. It is very pleasant and enjoyable fragrance for day time/every day use.I would say not so "sexy" but my husband loves it when I spray it going to bed.I personally like it and I would buy it again as I found it very universal and comfortable fragrance (not plastic or artificial!!! I dont use cheap fragrances)

There's a traditional practice in my hometown of putting a floral-basil necklace on the bride and groom at the end of a wedding. This is exactly what this scent smells like on me at first. it smells like a citrusy basil flower that has been spiked up with some aftershave. Unfortunately,the fantastic smell lasts only till the dry down. The dry down is overly sweet. It almost takes you by surprise because: one, it is too quick to dry down. Two, as the scent transitions, there is nothing that ties its first phase with its dry down, making the ending seem like a car crash. (Both, sudden and unexpected.)

I am not sure am willing to let the dry down turn me away. Maybe I was haste in including this fragrance amongst my lovers, but as I have learnt from my mistake, I won't be too quick to judge or take it down. If I get used to the sharp sweetness at the end, I'll still love it. As for now, I love it because it reminds me of weddings.

When the bride and groom walk away from center stage, all that is left to remind me of the wedding is this scent.

______Update_______

Ok, 12 hours later all that is left of this perfume on my skin is a soft,mellowed dab of the aftershave like note. Strange it didn't take a sharp turn into the sweets shop. It could possibly be that it interacted with my skin differently than it did with my clothes. The two other times I have tried this on my clothes, the sharp sweet note came out only 5 hours later! and now there is hardly ever sweetness in it. I realize that perfumes react differently on someone's skin from the way they would on clothes and other surfaces, but I have never dealt with such a great difference in the way a fragrance reacts & smells, as is the case here.

What I was looking for was something with a dark sweetness to it, maybe along the lines of a gothic J'adore...
Instead, my first impression is "pine tree".
Don't get me wrong, it's a very soft pleasant juniper, probably what others are picking up as "freshness" but I'm not getting any sweetness from the fruit at all that I can discern.
It has settled into a lily-like linear scent, very similar to RL Blue actually.
While it's pleasant, it's not what I was hoping for nor is it unique or memorable enough for me to purchase a bottle.
Next...

AMETHYST is undoubtedly a blackcurrant in the bottle. Natural, fresh and juicy. I love black current vodka but it only reminds me of it in the beginning. The scent of course feels much more refined than the cheerful vodka shot.

This is like picking up and eating fresh blackcurrants right from the bush. In the opening I even feel the blackcurrant leaves, the fresh green scent that mingles with the delicious berry scent. The peony blooms in the heart notes accompanied by light sweetness of the rose. I think it is ylang-ylang and pepper that adds a bit of woodsy and spicy feeling to the heart. The dry-down has a bit of leathery tone for me. I cannot figure out where it is coming from. I almost feel a touch of patchouli in this fragrance but it is not listed.

I do love fruit fragrances. The smell of blackcurrant makes me feel happy and cozy and reminds me of sunny happy summer days when I was picking those tasty berries. I thought that AMETHYST will be mysterious and have a bit of a dark twist like I imagine the precious stone will. But instead it is a nice blackcurrant fragrance with gorgeous peonies. I love it as is but if you are not into berry floral fragrances and are not crazy about blackcurrants, you probably would want to skip this one.

an original unique and fresh fragrance, the smell change so fast in time....

I can smell the blackcurrant when I am using this perfume, it's so refreshing..^^

Well, it is nothing special and as mahanta said - it does smell like Absolute Kurant Vodka (which I adore actually), but I really love this pretty, little thing. It does smell like black currants on a sunny day - those who grow them in their gardens would be happy to try this as there is no synthetic smell to them in Amethyst (thanks god). It's soapy, fresh and lovely smelling. After an hour you start to feel peppery dry-down which is lovely as well.

Nothing special, yes, but I wouldn't mind to add this to my collection for hot summer days.

From my point of view it's very simple fragrance, just pretty fruity-berry water. I expected that one from Yves Rocher, for example, but not from such expected house as Lalique!

Very strong, very interesting scent, but does not fit my chemistry. Reminds me of YSL In love again, but much richer and deeper. Not so girly like.

پس سلطان در خزانه بگشاد و یک بار قاطر آمتیست سفارش داد و فرمود تا زنان فهیم و با‌شعور حرمسرا بدان خود را بیارایند. پس سلطان هیچگاه آمتیست را نشنید. تف بر قبرشان
:)

It is really perfect,No men could resist to smell it more!I finished 2 100 ml bottles.It s so much refreshing.

I just smell it once or twice on my friend: no special feeling about it.
The other time I smelt the bottle: nice grapy-alchoholy scent !

I agree with 'mahanta' this scent has some artificial medical note. It's dull on me. I don't feel refreshed after using it but kinda dirty. It smells very similar to Gucci Eau de Parfum II which in my opinion is better composed and richer.

However, the bottle is very beautiful.

i adore amethyst and i cant smel it on me cs its a part of me.... :)))

Is it just me who thinks it is wayyy too light? lovely, dark fruits, but seems there is no alcohol in that perfume..like a watered version of a scent!! the bottle is lovely though..lalique in my opinion doesnt create great scents, they are always a bit off..

Amethyst has become my signature scent. I've gotten so very many complements on the fragrance. One cab driver went on and on about how wonderful it was and suggested that I never stop wearing it. Men and women alike are very attracted to this wonderful scent.

Amethyst is just Swedish Absolut Kurant Vodka on me. When I put it on there was some strange medical note for a couple of minutes; then it faded away and black currant stepped in, still with strong vodka feel to it. I don't detect a rose, only slightly a peony; no vanilla in the drydown, just light musk. Anyway, it's no that bad, but hey! I really object to smelling of booze for some 4-5 hours...

Just received today.

Amethyst Lalique reveals that currant, nutmeg and blackberry with a hint of that intoxicating rose all drying down to a soft, sweet and sensual powdery musk.

Also smells a bit like expensive soap.
Powder first - then soap.

A keeper - for my lounge around the house on the weekends scent.

I wore this today and I really enjoy it but it does not last long on me. Perhaps I need a spray bottle as opposed to a mini splash.

Update: once it develops (i tend to have little patience in general), it smells quite lovely. Very unique to me..freshly tart and peppery. :-)

hmm this is interesting..i get tart blackberries immediately. Now I am getting the rose. I will have to let this develop to see if i really like it.

I really really want this perfume! The name and the bottle intrigue me, as do the notes! I love amethyst as a stone, and i LOVE nutmeg and dark berries! I may just have to order this unsniffed with no qualms!

I coudn't agree more with Jinalda.. =)
The best-freshly picked-natural-black currant-scent! =D
I don't adore artificial smelling blackcurrant like Paco Rabbanne Ultraviolet Women.. Or too sickening fruity-sweet-candied-fragrance like most of Escada's / Paris Hilton's..
In this Oh-So-Adorable-flacon hides the fresh-sophisticated-juicy-sweet but not sickening-easily adored-pretty fragrance.. =)
Very nice indeed for everyday scent.. ;)

I enjoy this, even if it isn't outstanding or unique. It's a soft peony scent with a lovely black currant and a burst of blackberry. I love blackberry, and I find the name appropriate, I imagine a stain of blackberry juice on my wrist. Not too sweet, less sweet than many modern floral fruities.
It become soapy, as most florals do on my skin, but not too sharp. I feel fresh and feminine, and I will enjoy my large decant, it doesn't resemble any other fragrance I own. It's the first Lalique I've tried, and I don't even have the beautiful bottle-but luckily the scent is pretty enough.

The name and notes are so alluring, but lurking inside the beautiful bottle is an ordinary, everyday, feminine fragrance. It's a nice smell, but it's somehow famaliar, not in a good way. You get a little blueberry and some musk. This would be a good starter perfume for the overtly feminine girl who is just entering the world of fragrances.

I’m not a fan of modern floral and fruity fragrances. If I choose one of them it’s always in case I’m searching for some particular scent. The time I bought this perfume was when I was searching for a blackberry scent (or maybe black currant’s, as an option). In this one I found them both. Also, in my opinion, it is an elegant perfume because it has some acerbity, which makes it a serious scent, not a puerile one.

From a first spray it smells exactly like the natural fresh black currant’s bunch with it’s green leaves just picked in a forest or some garden. In a 10 minutes or so the scent transformed into blackberry’s – I couldn’t notice the particular process of this transformation though I was smelling my wrist during the whole time of transformation, it occurred in a very flow way.

The blackberry is also looks very natural. I remember smelling the bowl full of blackberries carried by me from the forest. Their scent was very light, almost insensible, and very much like in this perfume, but less sweet and more green (because of the green leaves that also were in that bowl).

I’m not sure that there is a real natural blackberry essential oil, and I suppose that the scent of these berries was constructed of other components – maybe it’s a combination of vanilla, ylang-ylang, rose, peony and pepper? I don’t know. And in fact I don’t care ;)

I was wearing it last year and always received complements. Just everybody liked it and they were very curious, because nobody knew the title of the perfume. Several colleagues examined the bottle and wrote the title down.

The bottle is an absolutely something special, even the “purse edition”. That was pleasant to find the blackberry print on the inner side of the carton box. Nice feature ;)

People that I know could find me in public places (twice in a subway) by this scent. It was great, that it was not very popular and it still not – that makes me unique. And that is the best about it!

So gorgeous this perfume has a lovely tartness to it stays light yet sweet with a touch of richness to it. Makes me think of a blackberry pie!

On me, it smells exactly like cough syrup. It's pretty linear too.

I like it very much,everyone asks about it!And it isn't " heavy" it is so light and relaxing fragrance!

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 black current scent and I thought I would love the fragrance, but though the idea is wonderful, I personally think the fragrance could have been done better. It is very strong and after a while becomes overwhelming, especially in hot weather. The black current dominates and stands out in a little more loud way than I would desire. It pleases me for about half and hour and then I just get bothered.

P.S. I couldn't resist myself and finally bought this frag and I'm happy I did! It actually smells great in cold weather, much more delicate. Besides, all my friends are in love with it!

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...)
I wored this again today and is very longlasting, I don't smell any booze...

Definitely interesting. I might not buy another bottle but I just had to check it out... I really like the woody ending...

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.

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!

Yes, exactly: fresh floral. Very nice everyday-scent.

It's a very fresh floral scent. Perfect for a sunny spring or summer day.
