Estee Lauder Sensuous Eau De Parfum

Estée Lauder Sensuous Eau De Parfum was launched in 2008 and created by perfumer Annie Buzantian. Designed as a celebration of the many facets of femininity, Sensuous is a warm, woody, and floral fragrance that redefines sensuality with a smooth and radiant signature. Unlike typical sweet or heavily floral perfumes, Sensuous captures a more intimate, mature expression of allure—subtle, confident, and graceful.

The fragrance opens with a gentle and luminous bouquet of ghost lily accord, magnolia, and jasmine petals. These floral notes feel airy yet substantial, offering a smooth and comforting introduction that sets the tone for the rest of the fragrance. Rather than bursting with brightness, the top notes invite with a sense of softness and calm, evoking the elegance of fresh white petals on warm skin.

At the heart of Sensuous lies a distinctive blend of molten woods and amber. This core is where the fragrance departs from traditional florals and embraces a warmly textured sensuality. The molten woods accord, combined with amber, provides a rich and enveloping warmth that feels intimate, slightly resinous, and softly smoky. It mirrors the tactile feel of polished wood or cashmere—smooth, deep, and quietly luxurious.

The base of the fragrance deepens into a combination of creamy sandalwood, a touch of spicy black pepper, sweet golden honey, and juicy mandarin orange pulp. The pepper and mandarin add nuance and vibrancy, while the honey lends a soothing roundness. The result is a finish that is both grounded and glowing—warm without being heavy, and lasting without overwhelming.
