Amethyst Fatale

I had only a very light sniff from a perfumed page before I bought it. When I received the actual perfume I freaked out because the smell was so strong and overwhelming but I decided to give it a try anyway. And that is when I fell in love with it, the smell has softened after a bit of time and it smelled so sophisticated, alluring and mature. Very rich fragrance in my opinion suited for a mysterious, strong and sexy woman. I could say this perfume is for "queens" and not "princesses". It stays on extremely long too. I got quite a few compliments for the smell and some men kept telling me how amazing I smell when I wore it :) It's quite heavy though so I find it best suited for evenings, winter and fall. Personally though I liked it enough to wear it all the time 'till I finished the bottle.

This is the ultimate poison of fragrance! Just astonishing. It begins slightly vinegary and minty but the whole process of aging on your skin, of developing is amazing. It brings you that deadly sexuality that every women desires. I don't know why but I prefer this perfume for winter cold days because that is the time when you need your inner sexuality to be shown and sensed from far away (since clothes cover up the rest ;) ) When I first smelt it I thought that I couldn't handle it but the smell learns to except your body as you learn to except the smell. Feel it and you will love it. The pure poisonous and mysterious smell.

This Frangrance owns up to it's name Amethyst Fatale. with lucious Plums & Vanilla. makes this perfume worth while. Purple satin sheets over the walls floors and a round bed Amethyst Crystals hanging around the room Purple Lights Shines allover. A Woman wearing a Crushed Plum Colored blackless shelf dress with pale skin long black hair dark mauve lips long Dark plum nails with grey eyes and a Darkly handsome man tall Slides his hand over her bare back and she tilts her head back in Exstacy and lie gentily on the bed. The Ultimate Femme Fatale. Frangrance

My goodness!! After a long and demanding days and hours of finding this gem, I finally have to surrender to the fact that this perfume is not available anymore in my country. I cheered myself and revisiting its violet liquid in miniature, this afternoon. All of a sudden lighting strikes and the desire is no longer there. It reminds me of something I'm familiar with! And it's my new perfume; M by Marcel Marongiu, also from Oriflame!! So happy that I don't have to waste more money and most of all, I have the replacement of my lovely Amethyst Fatale!!

I bought Petal Quartz(the pink one) by this house yesterday and I regret it now...it is nice but today I smelled this one in a perfume shop and I fell in love with it :( I tested several famous perfumes afterwards but this one was the magic one, dark, sexy, not too sweet...sth that I was searching for.

god i love this perfume. i dug this out of my drawer last nite- i hadn't worn it since April? I wore this for my boyfriend last night and he told me 3 times throughout the evening how good i smell, and fervently pounced... yeah, enough said.

Love this scent alot,it's very mystery just like amethyst stone's color and so seductive just like its name amethyst faltale,so sad that i can't own it, at least one time in life.

Love this one! Lots of sexy roses in it! Long lasting and floral, suits women that like to be in the center of men's attention. Night and date-time perfume, pasional and warm.

This one is soo yummy yummy!! Great sillage and staying power!!! REALLY sensual. Reminds me of DKNY Delicious night the purple apple. Just fantastic!

I find this one mysterious. Hard to describe -- it's warm, elegant, and sophisticated, but also deep, sexy, and alluring... Truly interesting.

İt is the best best best in my life.super sexy super long lasting and so oriental.by far the best in all oriflame perfumes

Beautiful deep rich mysterious Amethyst Fatale - it's a stunning gem! I love it. It's a fabulous femme fatale. Beautiful.

Francis Kurkdjian is a real genius! Thanks to Sofiapap i have a mini! Now looking for a large bottle!! Thanks, Action

Wow Sissi that review sold me! I just ordered a bottle from ebay. Great review!! I hope I love it too!

WOW. This lives up to its name. Very addicting and intoxicating in a sexy way. I LOVE this perfume!!!

Gorgeous, gothic, and sexy. If anyone has a bottle they would like to sell please send me a dm.

Amazing! Like, floral, like powdery, beautiful perfume, I really love it!

One of the best perfumes I ever tried!. Anyone knows where can I get it?

Over the last dozen or so years, Oriflame has released three absolutely phenomenal women's fragrances. These are Mirage, Marcel and Amethyst Fatale. The withdrawal of all three is certainly a great loss for perfumery, because they were phenomenal fragrances not only in the mass market segment, they were the art of perfumery of the highest order. Amethyst Fatale was the first of the big three, the creator of the fragrance was Francis Kurkdjian. He created an extremely essential, balsamic fragrance in which the main roles are played by the collaboration of the iris-rose duo, the rest of the ingredients are subordinated to these two, but also noticeable, especially in the later development of the composition. I have the impression that the author was somehow inspired by the great work of Lalique Perles (Amethyst Fatale was published a year after the premiere of Perles). During the first few hours, you can feel the great similarity between these fragrances, mainly due to the same rose in both perfumes - cellar, smoky, dark, mysterious - accompanied by iris. However, Pearls are a cold and raw scent, while Amethyst Fatale is warm, passionate, intoxicating and sweet. The beginning of the composition is a strong woody hit of powdery rose, delicately spiced with pepper and red fruits, and then for the next 3-4 hours we have a beautiful rose-iris concert delicately sweetened with sandalwood, the powderiness of the iris softens with time and we feel a delicious rose jam. After about 4 hours, the scent softens slightly, the rose and iris recede and a wonderfully creamy, balsamic base emerges. A musky-amber base with slightly chocolate patchouli and a vanilla aftertaste, and it lasts for a good few hours. The parameters on my skin are really great, initially the projection is very high, after about 2 hours it becomes moderate and the scent is very noticeable for about 7 hours. However, when applied close to the skin, it stays on the skin all day long. The purple color perfectly matches the mysterious aura of the fragrance. Amethyst fatale is a strong and expressive fragrance, mysterious and disturbing, in my opinion even slightly unisex, despite the powderiness of iris and feminine rose, it has some masculine element. If you have the opportunity, test it because it's worth it! 9/10

Amethyst Fatale starts out with pepper, dark berries and a touch of rosewood. The opulent floral heart was constructed around iris, rose and sandalwood. Patchouli, musk, benzoin and amber round the fragrance in its basenotes. On initial spray Amethyst Fatale is all about pepper and patchouli. It may sound weird but this blend creates a cold, almost metallic feel and, at the same time, it feels hot! Within a few moments luscious, rich and intensely fragrant dark berries (I can see why many people smell plum!) burst the hot/cold bubble and, at once, make Amethyst Fatale just so incredibly feminine. A touch of rosewood grounds the sexy scent cloud before a dark rose picks up on the cold-and-hot play of notes. Dark, but still transparent and somewhat light, is how I would describe the heart's rose. The iris note is heavenly sweet, powdery and intense and with the addition of sandalwood it feels creamy and even somewhat milky - milk drops on iris petals is probably the best way I can describe the feel. The base is all about patchouli and soft cozy accords of ambra and benzoin with a touch of musk. All in all Amethyst Fatale is definitely made for femmes fatales! It is beautiful, feminine, sexy, alluring and extremely seductive (but without being vulgar) - like its ideal wearer. The fragrance lasts all day long (12+ hours) and projects with above-average strength. My husband said this fragrance is not fashion but true style. I couldn't agree more! 11 stars!

I don't think this smells like a rip off of anything. I definitely don't think it smells like Armani Code (which I like), Feerie (not a fan), or Extraodinary (which I also like) I do think it shares some of the same vibe as David Yurman and Tous Touch but just the "cover" vibe, the balance is it's own. As with DY and TT I agree it is a heavier perfume, more "serious" and sophisticated. Not one of the light fruity florals that cruise around so often. I think the bottle gives the right impression for what you are about to experience, although sadly it doesn't look as nice in person, the scent however is. Amethyst Fatal is elegant and feminine with a slightly sexy edge. There's a hint of rose but it's super soft, and a good feel of berries and woody notes with nothing overwhelming the other. It's a nice even blend. Since I am a fan of rosewood, amber, berries, and sandalwood, I suppose that explains the attraction. I was hooked from the first sniff.

I had a sample of the three and this one is the best. I used to be an Oriflame agent. My problem with Oriflame is that their perfumes are rip-offs of eminent brands right down to the bottles. They smell like one and the bottles look like another. The problem is that they cost just as much. It is like a buying an expensiive rip-off! This bottle is like Armani Code. Anyway, this is the best of the three.

I tried it on a piece of paper that I forgot in my bag for a couple of dies. It was shocking at first and mesmerizing afterwards. It reminds me of incense at times, but anyway I purchased three bottles of this. A bit heavy but not in a bad way.

good staying power, powdery scent ,heavy but in good way, but i prefer petal quartz than this one.

we need this back, one of the best and most unique scents oriflame has ever done

Not my cup of tea ☕️ Smells quite generic (it is generic:D) Old school type of fragrance even though it was created by such a talented artist.

The opening is very woody and peppery with an accord of berries. I can feel rose and amber too. Nice dark dense and intense fragrance with a good lasting power (8 hours on my skin). And I wouldn't classify this as chypre.

Tried this on and immediately knew I smelt something similar before. On me it is a sister perfume of Lalique Le Perfum (which I really disliked) but this one is less heady. Both are not my cup of tea...

I had it and sold it. I remember it had a plum note, it was mature and sweet and all in all was pleasant, a bit dark, but notes didn't change much so I got rid of it because I got quickly bored.

Heavy and powdery. I don't get the 'alluring', but perhaps it's supposed to smell sexy. Only wore it occasionally for evening events. After a while I got sick of it anyways.

i do not like it sory, and i find it very intoxicated, it smells like an expired lipstick . not for me

At first I liked it but now I think it's awful. Granny smell.

I know very well what you're talking about, janhvi.fairy! BUT when it comes to this one: the bottle is Armani Code, but the smell is not. It's actually quite good for an Oriflame. If you like iris, powder and violet, it is a gothic, a little bit incensy take on these notes. I think this, Enigma and Mirage(weak drydown here, though) are really well done and worth attention, for Oriflame products. In sum: nice little gothic-lolita thing.

Purple-smelling boudoir scent.. soft but deep, l'heure purple. Seems similar to L'Heure Bleu, not as somber in mood tho, and a touch different flavor.. I like this much better. More mellow than most iris/rose combo's out there, not so bright. In flavor it reminds me of Anna Sui, but not as sweet. Richer & more smooth with the nice amber. I like its mix of classic romantic feel and a bit modern feel. Nice sillage too!

Tracershy I totally agree with you. Amethyst Fatale was one of my favourite perfume. After all these years I am still looking something similar but everytime there is something missing... it is not the same :( very sad that Oriflame discontinued them. Surprised that Francis Kurkdjian has not created anything similar under his own brand.

What a lovely modern milky plum intrance.Whispering softly,LOok at me ,take in my divine essence.IT DEEPENS like lovers eyes locked in a i want u stare.It is sooo sexy.U embrace kiss,then smolder down into a bed of roses kissed with amber.I would feel so loved if someone wore this for me.A true gift!!

I love chypres and I love Kurkdjian, and I would also love to know how this smells on me, but that's not happening. There are certain fragrances that I just can't smell on myself, and this is one of them. I've tried three times now, and i just can't carry this scent long enough to evaluate it :-(

I thought this was the first in line. I would assume it's chypre notes last only a few pleasant moments, after that it has a very strong and not really sophisticated but long lasting vanilla scent, which I was not able to wear. Did somabody try the next Gem Petal Quartz?

Starts with a lovely ambrette-y rose-iris: A tiny bit powdery, very rich and feminine. Then it dries down to an oversweet Feerie-style sugared iris-violet that rapidly becomes cloying. I love the onset and wish it lasted longer.

I can't describe the smell as till date i am not able to find the notes of the perfume. its very strong and i will not suggest this. But one thing to say its a good EDP and long lasting.

Wow, this and Marcel Marongiu are the top perfumes by Oriflame This smells so luxurious and expensive, an evening wear rosy amber iris. Almost like something from Guerlain!

like juicy plum and berries up front with a floral heart that’s cozy but not too heavy. It’s pretty easygoing and definitely leans sweet‐fruity rather than edgy or deep. ✨

ACTUAL NOTES (FROM ORIFLAME'S SITE): TOP NOTES: Berries / Pepper / Rosewood MIDDLE NOTES: Rose / Iris / White Sandalwood BASE NOTES: Musk / Amber / Benzoin / Patchouli

I totally agree with Halvah, the fragrance has nice higher notes, then it gets heavy & I didn't like the way it gets!! However, Petal Quartz is very feminine & lovely

If anyone still has this perfume, please contact me on [email protected] . I loved it and i would be overwhelmed if i could find it again.

Certainly not my cup of tea. One bitter sniff was enough to convince me to keep away... I kind of like the other two of this line though.

I love this one .a very log lasting sexy fragrance .my husband loved it too .I will buy another one today

If anyone has this perfume please contact me email [email protected] i really like this perfume

I had it. I loved it for a few weeks, then, all of a sudden, i got sick of it. I hate it now.

Did any one notice a similarity with Extra-ordinary by Avon..i love them both!
