Amouage Interlude Black Iris EDP
Description
Amouage Interlude Black Iris EDP is the smoother, more wearable evolution of the legendary Interlude Man — trading raw smoke for buttery iris and creamy resinous depth.
Composed by perfumer Pierre Negrin for the Omani luxury house Amouage and launched in 2020, this Oriental-Woody fragrance opens cool and sparkling before settling into a refined haze of orris, frankincense, leather and agarwood. Reviewers describe it as a black-tie reimagining of the original Interlude Man — less abrasive, more elegant, and built around the regal beauty of Florentine iris.
Scent Character
- Oud — 40%
- Fresh — 20%
- Woody — 13%
- Floral — 13%
- Sweet — 13%
Translation: a smoky, resinous agarwood core wrapped in cool violet-leaf freshness, dry woods and powdery iris — rich and nocturnal without ever turning sweet or sharp.
Fragrance Pyramid
Top: Rosemary, Violet Leaf, Bergamot
Heart: Frankincense, Florentine Iris Absolute, Myrrh, Orris Butter, Amber, Cistus, Vanilla
Base: Smoked Leather, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Cedarwood, Oud
Performance
Longevity: Excellent — expect 10–12+ hours on skin, with the leather-and-oud base lingering well into the next day. This is true Amouage performance.
Sillage: Strong but refined — it projects confidently for the first few hours before settling into a sophisticated, gentlemanly aura.
Projection: Bold on application, then close-and-personal in the dry-down. A few sprays carry an evening with ease.
Best Occasions & Season
Built for Evening and Night Out wear, at its best in Fall and Winter when its smoky, resinous warmth shines.
Gender: Unisex — wearable by anyone drawn to iris, leather and agarwood.
