Discover Overture 41 Exceptional Extrait by Amouage, an extraordinarily concentrated interpretation of Overture Woman, intensified to reveal its opulent floral, spicy and ambery character in new dimensions.
Created by perfumer Annick Ménardo at a monumental 41% concentration, Overture 41 amplifies the original composition with an expressive opening of saffron, Calvados, frankincense and cinnamon. At the heart, Centifolia rose unfolds with benzoin and geranium, enriched by Sandalwood Drèches — a sophisticated material crafted through a precise re-distillation process that enhances the rose with smooth, woody depth.
Vanilla, labdanum, patchouli and leather anchor the fragrance in a rich, enveloping base, bringing gravitas to its more extravagant facets. Aged for six weeks, matured for four and macerated for two, Overture 41 is an exceptionally concentrated expression of Overture Woman, defined by richness, intensity and vibrancy.
