Amouage Opus XI Sample
Opus XI by Amouage, as a decant
Amouage Opus XI is a perfume from the Amouage line-up. Our data holds its name and its house, not its notes, and we leave it at that. Skin, weather and habit change how any perfume comes across, and a sample shows you your version of it. Do not judge it next to other perfumes on the same arm, as they blur each other.

On the skin
How it unfolds
-
Without a pyramid
No note list is on record for Amouage Opus XI; wear it and judge. We would rather give you a clean sample than a description we cannot stand behind. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.
-
Asking for this sample
Amouage Opus XI is listed so that you can ask for it. Send the form on this page and your interest is noted; we do not name a date. Smell it right after applying and again later in the day, because the first minutes rarely tell the whole story.
-
The vial
We fill Opus XI from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and label it ourselves. The sizes are 2, 5 or 10 ml. Pick the small vial if you only want to know whether you like it, and a larger one if you want to live with it for a while.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
With no season on file for Amouage Opus XI, the fair test is simply several different days. Start light; you can always add a spray on the next wearing. Wear it on at least three different days before you decide.
Who it is for
Whether Amouage Opus XI is marketed to men, women or everyone is not in our record; wear it if you enjoy it. Whoever wears it decides whether it fits, not the label. A label like that is a hint, not a rule: wear what suits you.
Why try Amouage Opus XI as a sample first
Choosing a bottle unsmelled is a gamble, and a decant takes the gamble out of it. It is our own decant from the original bottle, labelled by us. This is not an official brand sample and the house is not involved.

Frequently asked
Is this the same perfume as the full bottle?
Yes. The liquid is taken from the original bottle of Amouage Opus XI and filled into a glass spray vial by FragranceGems. The vial carries our own label, so it is a decant and not a sample made by the brand.
Why does this page list no notes?
No note list is on record with us for Amouage Opus XI, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
Will Opus XI be the same on me as on someone else?
Probably not exactly. Skin, weather and the amount you apply all change how a perfume comes across, which is the reason to wear Amouage Opus XI yourself before deciding.
The brand
About Amouage
Amouage has composed perfume in the Sultanate of Oman since 1983, with frankincense, myrrh and resins never far from the formula. Its Eau de Parfums are dosed between 20 and 30% perfume oil and aged for several weeks, so even the fresher ones carry weight on skin and change a lot over a day. That makes the house a textbook case for sampling: a 10 ml decant gives you time to live with the drydown before you choose a bottle.
- Founded in 1983 in the Sultanate of Oman; most perfumes are made in Muscat
- Eau de Parfum dosed at 15 to 35% perfume oil on the brand's own scale, Extrait at 40 to 56%
- Guidance 46 is an Extrait dosed at 46%; Outlands is an Essence at 30%, infused for six months

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
