Amado
Amado is a fragrance house founded in 2014 with a French formulation framework and Saudi Arabian operational base. The brand positions itself toward the Gulf luxury market — high oil concentrations, opulent oud and amber compositions, heavily ornamented flacons — while drawing on a roster of European perfumers including Christian Provenzano, Ian Watt, Claire Paulson, Kevin Mathys, and Anna Chiara di Trolio. The catalogue runs to several dozen references, with Intuitive, My Muse, Professor, and Velvet Patchouli among the more cited. Amado adheres to IFRA standards and emphasises natural extracts in its marketing, distinguishing itself from purely traditional Arabian houses by leaning into French-style construction. Distribution covers the Gulf, parts of Europe, and a US presence; the dump's listing of the United States as country of origin appears mistaken.
DNA over time
Each column is an era. Each colored band shows that family’s share of accord weight across every perfume the house released in that window. Bigger band = the house leaned harder on that family.
