Amouage | Dia 40 | Extrait de Parfum
A vibrant and sophisticated homage to vintage aldehydic florals, the original Dia Woman Extrait de Parfum makes a distinctive statement on the beguiling, timeless mystique of femininity. With a 40% concentration, Dia 40 Woman Extrait is the new delicate, yet undeniably lavish and generous incarnation of Amouage's icon. A fragrance of grace and nobility, Dia 40 elegantly balances its many layers to conjure a sense of passing time in three acts: sunrise, zenith, and sunset.
What makes Dia 40 Woman an "Exceptional Extraits"?

A fragrance is usually a mix of a concentrate (containing fragrant oils) and an alcoholic base. Some fragrances can also contain a bit of water and additives like liquid UV filters, stabilizers, or colourants. Therefore, fragrances with a higher fragrance concentration contain more perfume oils and less alcohol, and vice-versa.
