If you are looking for something truly niche with a powerful, captivating trail, Amouage's creations are definitely worth your attention. The Lineage composition is a blend of spices, salty incense, and mineral warmth. According to the creators themselves, this is a fragrance of meditation and a journey far from home to become closer to oneself through solitude. The perfume unfolds on the skin in a very unusual way, alternating between vibrant ginger, citrus sparks, woody-powdery notes, and something reminiscent of iodine-rich seaweed.
Top note seems to propel you out of the mundane with a sunny and warming trio of ginger, saffron, and Sichuan pepper, with its mineral tang.
Heart note conveys that very union with oneself through a combination of myrrh, frankincense, and sweet fenugreek.
Base note completes the play with a soft, enveloping light, like a warm sunset. Here, the salty nuances of frankincense and myrrh are still discernible, accompanied by labdanum, warm benzoin, and smoky vetiver with patchouli.
Personally, I find this incense to be quite lovely. More specifically, it has a pleasant church-like aroma.
