Interlude Woman

Interlude Woman by Amouage

Released in 2012 alongside its masculine counterpart, Amouage Interlude Woman is the more floral, slightly softer sibling in the Interlude collection — but make no mistake, this is still a powerful, presence-driven niche fragrance. Created by perfumer Karine Vinchon-Spehner, Interlude Woman wraps Amouage’s signature smoky-resinous DNA in a heart of rose, jasmine, and amber, creating something both bold and feminine, both ancient and modern.

Amouage Interlude Woman retails for around €290 at official retailers. Our interpretation captures the same dramatic floral-resinous signature at €49 for a full 50ml of long-lasting Eau de Parfum.

How It Smells

The opening is immediately rich — Tunisian orange blossom, ginger, and amber introduce themselves with warmth rather than freshness. There’s a sense of theatrical presence from the first spray, as if the curtain has just risen.

The heart is built around rose absolute and jasmine, joined by spices and a creamy warmth that softens the smoky-resinous DNA beneath. The dry-down is where Interlude Woman becomes magnificent: frankincense, myrrh, agarwood (oud), patchouli, leather, and warm amber settle into a base that lingers on skin and fabric for hours with dignified, slightly mysterious depth.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

We don’t claim this is identical — no dupe ever truly is. What we’ve built is a faithful interpretation of Interlude Woman’s dramatic floral-resinous signature: the same warm orange blossom opening, the same rose-jasmine heart, the same smoky frankincense-oud base. Where Amouage’s original retails for approximately €290, ours is €49 for the same 50ml format with up to 40% perfume oil concentration — typically 8 to 10 hours on skin, longer on fabric.

Who It’s For

Interlude Woman is unmistakably feminine but never girlish — for women who love floral fragrances with serious character and depth. Autumn and winter especially shine. Evening, formal occasions, dramatic events. Pairs naturally with silk, velvet, and other niche florals or oriental fragrances.
