On me, this one is STRONG, soapy, very masculine -- alot like someone else's aftershave. The drydown took 3+ hours but I still didn't get anything rose-y or even feminine. Staying power was not anything exceptional although the aftershave part did affix to my shirt. I guess this one just doesn't work for my skin chemistry... total bummer! I really wanted to like it.

I want to smell of Homage forever!
True classic quality in the tradition of 'Joy'.
Amouage still use real ingredients, not tested on animals along the way according to the labels, and the sort of stuff that the French houses are shying away from due to meddling from E.E.C. do-gooders who think that we're too dumb to read the labels & work out if we're allergic to the ingredients.
This is a seamless blend of Rose Taifi, silver frankincense, silver oud, tayyiba (jasmine/sweet amber), al andalus (citrus & sandalwood).
When Eastern & French traditions collide in this way perfection is unsurprising.

OK. I like this fragrance. I wore it several wearings to get a good feel for it and it definitely wore very different from the other reviews I've read - for me anyway. I realize all these bottles are hand blended in a fairly small fragrance shop and it is possible that there is some variation between batches. My bottle of Hamage was very far from a rose attar - but was a blend. The roses and the oud played a much smaller and less prominent role in the blend than I thought they might. Nothing like any of the Montales or any other rose fragrance I've tried. It is a blend of notes put together very harmoniously. Equal in smell to the rose is orange (possibly neroli) along with a beautiful frankincense note as well. Homage is an attar of equal parts rose, orange and frankincense that is very concentrated and intense, but still is soft. A nice oil that is not ground breaking - but it is pleasant enough. Worth the money??

this is pleasant, I think the hype is really clouding peoples' brains over it though. it really dries down to a kind of meh white flower...
lyric for men seems a much smarter better choice if its rose you seek

This is literally to die for. I remember la sierne by carthalugia. It is the same breathless beckoning. I wore it and this man stuck his nose in my neck and sheepishly said "excuse me, Ma'am but I need to know the fragrance you have on because I am sure it could save my marriage". That was a first and I am sure Lucky scent will have this gentleman as a client for life.

I recently sampled this and initially did not get it. That changed in a hurry. This is one of the most special scents I have come across. Once the scent stabilizes, it is simply magic. I can't wait for my bottle to arrive.

I have the lyric so I thought the homage attar would be as nice. Not so. Smells like my grandfather's sweater, tobacco and leather. I am glad I bought a sample.

astonishing cocoction! This scent has the subtlety I wanted in gold which is a bit strong. The rose is the only version that can be worn by man- the rest of the ingredients develop as times moves on until a slightly sweet smoke remains at the end of the day. Try some and monitor your experience. I think you will be amazed. The scent complexity seems to merge my male/female identities to the point of confusion and I don't care. This stuff should be a restricted substance, in fact it is by the price! Worth every cent for such a high quality and amazing scent.

I sample about 300 samples a year. This is absolutley one of the top 5 currently made fragrances on the planet. I actually can't think of another 4 that are in the same league, but that's just my opinion.
Amouage has failed to impress me with the rest of their line. You can't possibly prepare yourself for how incredible this Attar effects your senses. It's sexy, masculine, feminine, sultry...............and just mesmerizing in the way it makes you feel inside when your wearing it. The quality of the incredients will just make you realize how inferior the rest of your wardrobe is by comparison.
Most scents have very little sillage and lasting power on my dry skin. I applied one single small dab on one wrist. This stuff will fill an entire room with one dab and the lasting power is excellent.
The high price of $350.00 for 12ml seems high until you experience it - then you realize it's a steal. I thought my Wife might get a little upset with me if I bought a bottle - so I bought a bottle for her for Christmas and I'm planning on sharing dabs with her.
Homage is marketed for women, but I don't care- I love this one so much I'm not going to deprive myself of the pleasure of wearing it.

Absoulute poetry. A masterpiece. Amouage can do roses like no one else.

This is such a gorgeous fragrance! I'm so glad that LS offers samples...just a dab is all you need. The opening was odd on me...but only briefly. It had an undertone of lemon soapiness then transitioned nicely into the floral/incense. This smells pure and light though...not heavy. Much more ethereal than the earlier Amouages. The lasting power was also great given my 2 small dabs. If I had to choose between this and Lyric...it would be a tough choice!

If you can afford it, buy it. Even if you're not a rose fanatic, this is one of the loveliest floral blends I've ever come across. It's surprisingly light and ethereal on skin (Ashley at Scent Bar was kind enough to apply a drop on my arm). The rose is oh-so-refined, the amber and musk give it an almost edible edge, and the sandalwood keeps it smelling sophisticated and expensive. Beautiful ... beautiful ... that's the only way to describe Homage Attar.

I have bought several Amouage perfumes in the past and even the 350$ cost would not have stopped me had the quantity not been so little. I just cant bring myself to spend that amount of money for just 6ml of the perfume. No way.Sorry i meant 12ml of the perfume. My bad.

If there is a Mount Olympus of fragrance , amouage homage would be immortal. The most wonderful rose scent ever created. Bite the bulet and buy it!

Beautiful piece of work -- the rose is probably one of the nicest I've yet run across. The life span is shorter than I would prefer, but it's definitely a scent to be experienced. Bears some similarities to Lyric for Women, but the spices are lighter and the rose is more pure.
