Description Amouage Reflection 45 Extrait is a concentrated, 45%-oil reworking of a modern Amouage signature — a luminous iris-and-lavender floral wrapped in warm, smoky resins. Composed by perfumer Lucas Sieuzac for the Omani house Amouage and released in 2021, Reflection 45 Man takes the airy elegance of the original Reflection Man (2007) and deepens it dramatically. The extra concentration trades some of the original's loud sparkle for a richer, more intimate woodiness. Reviewers describe it as refined, sophisticated, and notably more potent than the eau de parfum. Scent Character Floral — 21% Smoky-Resinous — 21% Woody — 16% Fresh — 16% Sweet — 16% Spicy — 11% Translation: a powdery iris-and-jasmine floral heart sits over a base of frankincense, myrrh and opoponax, giving a soft smoky-resinous warmth. Fresh aromatic herbs and gentle spice up top keep it from feeling heavy, while tonka and vanilla add quiet sweetness. Fragrance Pyramid Top: Benzoin, Cardamom, Clary Sage, Pink Pepper, Lavender, Juniper Berry Heart: Iris, Jasmine, Neroli, Angelica, Tonka Bean, Vanilla Base: Sandalwood, Cedarwood, Frankincense, Myrrh, Opoponax, Patchouli, Vetiver Performance Longevity: Excellent. At 45% concentration this is a true extrait — expect roughly 8–12+ hours on skin, with reviewers reporting it lasting nearly all day and well into the next on clothing. Sillage: Moderate to strong — it forms a steady, elegant scent bubble rather than a room-filling bomb. Slightly softer projection than the original, but far longer-lasting. Projection: Close-to-moderate after the first hour, settling into a refined, intimate trail. Best Occasions & Season Best for Evening and Night Out wear, and suited to Fall, Spring and Winter. Marketed for men, though the powdery floral character reads versatile.

FAQ How is Reflection 45 different from the original Reflection Man?Reflection 45 is a 45%-concentration extrait version. It keeps the iris-lavender floral DNA but is richer, woodier and far longer-lasting, with softer projection than the brighter original. Is this a men's fragrance?It's marketed for men, but its powdery floral-resinous profile is genuinely versatile and works well on anyone who enjoys refined, soft-smoky scents. Does it contain real oud?No. Despite Amouage's reputation for oud, Reflection 45's smoky warmth comes from frankincense, myrrh and opoponax resins — not agarwood. Why try a decant first?A full bottle is a serious investment. A 1 mL, 5 mL or 10 mL decant lets you wear it for several full days and confirm it's right for you first.
