Amaranthine Penhaligon`s for women

full of colours is right, this is wonderfull but weak and so close to the skin, it is intimate scent !
but there is a pure parfum version you can see it in the pictures with a little violet coloured bottle with silver at the top, like a fruit, it costs about 500 $ and 399 euros i think !!

if i was rich i woul buy it, yes cause this perfume is really dangerous, it is like a liquorous milky venom, exotic it smells like tropical plants, imagine yourself in a very sweaty environment, heat and warm with very green smells of leafs of tropical trees, this is really mysterious and dirty very sensual but not provocative you feel like" une créature à part " you feel like you are not in the place, like if everything is moving but you , an experience to live !

This is lovely but so close to the skin that I can barely smell it after an hour. Oh well!

Amaranthine reminds me of a lighter, more transparent L'Instant de Guerlain.

At first, it opens sweet and rather soapy, kind of like a tropical fragrance shampoo, then it dries down to a more natural, yet intoxicating leafy smell, reminding of a humid exotic greenhouse. It's somehow simultaneously very realistic and very artificial, plastic and nature, side by side.

Amaranthine is probably at its best on warm spring and summer days, its lasting power is okay (around 8 hours) and the sillage is modest. It will not choke anyone around you.

As a final note, do not blind buy this! Chances are there will be quite a huge difference between what you will expect by reading about it and what you will actually get.

The drydown is very ripe, very alluring, very close to the skin. Great for date night.

I feel like I am having lunch with Indian friends in a green house of tropical plants. Spicy and Green, Lovely.

This scent is really nice. It reminds me somewhat of Organza because it's essentially a lot of white floral notes warmed by some cozy, creamy notes. Personally I think I like Amaranthine more. I think this could be a lovely perfume to wear during months where there are a lot of cool, spring showers. It's also a warmer, richer alternative to the standard white floral perfume. Sillage is great, yet it's a light enough scent that it could be worn every day.

Also, something about this made me feel it could be the shyer, quieter cousin of Dior Addict.

nice blend of everything I like. Warmed, creamy flower notes with a tropical upbeat. There is a disturbing note though which kept appearing and disappearing during those 4-5 hours i spent with this fragrance. Not sure whether it is the cloves?

Creamy sweet lily.

To begin with there’s a harsh greenish-woody note that quickly settles into a slightly indolic white floral. I don’t get much in the way of spices, mostly the jasmine and a soapy note. Oddly, after a half hour or so there seems to be a lot of sillage, redolent of harsh wood and what must be condensed milk (not something I indulge in since I can’t stand the taste and it gives me an upset stomach) but not much close to the skin.

Eventually the white floral fades away into a faint sandalwood, with the whole thing lasting about 5-6 hours. Basically, Amaranthine is a white floral. There are quite a few perfumes in that genre that I like better, so am not sure why so many people seem to love it.

Gorgeous! Tropical fruit and spice, followed by lush white flowers on a base of sweet milk and tonka. Pretty good sillage and longlasting for Penhaligon's. I am not sure I get the banana reference exactly but I do get the tropical feeling - I feel transported to a beautifully heady coastal rainforest when I wear this. It is definitely not your average fruity floral - it is a real treat.

On me it is quite floral, typical Penhaligon's: elegant and a little strict, a Real Lady's scent. I want to like it so much, but it has a note (the same as in Lacoste pour femme, I think it is freesia) that I'm not fond of ((( But in Amaranthine this note isn't too nasty, so may be we'll be friends with this scent. I recommend this for those who's not afraid of freesia and want an elegant classic and modern scent in one bottle.

Amaranthine opens with sparkling fresh green notes that after few minutes became warmer thanks to flowers. In its heart i can recognize rose and carnation stronger that the others. Then the drydown is very sweet and it's like vanilla powder.i think taht condensed milk gives cremosity to the composition.i recomend it for who loves mistery and wants to be seductive...

since im an obvlious florientalgirl i love this one too! perfect for colder days
this brand has amazing stayingpower, i did remember trying it and it stayed on my wrist for quite a while,im obsessed with ellenisia right now but amaranthine could be my next purchase, i secretly suspect they had enya as their inspiration to name it:)

This is really unique. however i've tried my decant a couple of times and i keep detecting a strange note that gives it a vegetal,watery note similar to frederic malle's perfume d therese- a little bit of a wet diaper note. I would suggest trying it to ensure it doesn't clash with skin chemistry b/c it certainly is interesting.

Rich, dense tropical flowers with a creamy smooth sensation that reminds me of Star Jasmine blooming on the tree in sunlight. Lush, silky and gorgeous, it's summer vacation in a bottle. I don't care for white flowers, but I love this. Perhaps it's the green and slightly dirty notes that change it from a dreaded Big White Floral to a evocative poem of beauty. Loving it.

Top notes were very weak to my nose, I barely caught them at all.

It has since bloomed to smell like a twin to YSL Cinema, albeit without the rich oiliness. Admittedly my nose isn't very sophisticated so I compared the notes and aside from Jasmine, Musk & Vanilla (in almost everything anyway), they have nothing in common. I cannot understand where this is coming from but I find them virtually indistinguishable.

Of course I really like it but I already have Cinema so a purchase of Amaranthine would be redundant.

First of all, Songes! This so reminds me of Annick Goutals Songes. Which I love so naturally I really really like Amaranthine.

It's beautiful, can't stop sniffing it. One of those intoxicating scents that make you go mmmm.. and smile content. It has such a lush feel to it, like green plants freshened by rain.
A bouquet of addicting flowers and some tropical green leaves.

Besides reminding me of Songes, Amaranthine makes me think of a certain place in the north of Israel where the hot humid air is heavy with the scent of flowers.

I had great expectations for this. An oriental floral with such a beautiful name and packaging could be my new treasure! When I had tha chance to try it on my skin, not only on paper, I felt very disappointed. It smells disturbingly vegetale from start to end. It smells of green leaves, namely banana leaves and then I smell a metallic edge. Where is the beauty of african Orange flower, ylang-ylang, rose, musk, vanilla??? Milk? Maybe an acrid one. It has a nauseous rotten vegetal smell that it slightly reminding of Cacharel Eden, even if the whole scent is different.
I will test it again, you never know, but I had this scent on my wrist and on jacket sleeves for many hours and didn't like it at all.

It starts green and floral, like fantasy tropical flower. It reminds me of a lily but fleshier, like thick jasmine. As it dries the floral gets sweaty and creamier. It's absolutely gorgeous. It's a steamy island fantasy.

Amazing how perfumers nowadays succeed to create such a rare and original fragrance while an inumerable diversity of perfumes already is on the market. This scent is unique in its composition as it is oriental but not heavy in the base and starts with quite unusual and surprisingly bitter top notes. It is this development from a fresh bitterness in the beginning which layers down to a woody-creamy slightly vanillic scent that makes it bold and unique. On my skin may be a bit too masculine and edgy, I certainly will enjoy smelling it on others.

This is that rare thing, a transparent oriental floral. I've worn it several times over the last week, in our cold and rainy weather, and I think it might be even more wearable in springtime, or for the evening at the end of summer.

What Amaranthine reminds me most of is an orchid greenhouse I visited during a trip to the Big Island of Hawaii, where we'd gone to see the volcanoes. That side of the island lacks resorts and that "tropical paradise tourist spot" vibe. It's greeeeeen, sprinkled here and there with flowers, but less suntan-oil-and-bikinis-and-maitais, more plump Hawaiian grandmas in bright housedress-like muu-muus, gardening outside their modest houses. It's *real* in a way that Maui is not.

And Amaranthine is *real* too - I smell the green banana and the freesia most strongly in it, along with a bit of orange blossom. It's not marine, but it is a bit watery, so that you think of, say, a light rain that lasts half an hour, and then goes away. There is just a hint of spice; to my nose it's far less than I expected given the list of notes. This dewy white floral eventually fades into a light, but sensual skin scent that is mostly wood and tonka bean on me, with a smoothness probably from the milky note, and there's the suggestion of warm, moist skin - not quite sweaty, but that humid breath skin seems to give off in a warm evening.

It's beautiful.

I have only smelled this once, whilst visiting Penhaligon's in September, but I can still remember the sensual "meatiness" of it weeks later. It is a hugely attractive, womanly perfume that is incredibly addictive. The milky, musky, woody basenotes give it a creamy gravitas and the banana and cardamom only add to the feeling of burgeoning ripeness. I predict this will be very popullar.
