Van Cleef and Arpels The Amara

Thé Amara, from the prestigious Collection Extraordinaire, is a floral aromatic fragrance that captures the uplifting, soothing spirit of a happy tea. Launched in 2017 and created by master perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin, this unisex Eau de Parfum is an olfactory journey to the gardens where the finest white tea leaves unfurl under a gentle sun. The name “Amara” evokes both the bitterness of tea and the sweetness of happiness, creating a perfect balance of contrasts.

The composition opens with the fresh, delicate brightness of White Tea Accord, combined with the crisp zest of Bergamot and the green, slightly peppery notes of Mate Absolute. This luminous introduction awakens the senses like the first sip of a perfectly brewed infusion. At its heart, a soft, sensual bouquet of Jasmine Sambac, Orange Blossom, and Neroli unfolds, adding a creamy, floral elegance that is both calming and sophisticated. The base is a warm, clean, and long‑lasting embrace of White Woods, Musk, and a touch of Amber, leaving a silky, comforting trail on the skin.

Perfect for daily wear, all seasons, and any moment you seek serenity and joy, Thé Amara offers moderate sillage and impressive longevity. It is an elegant, timeless signature for both women and men who appreciate the art of refined simplicity.
