The Story
Why it exists.
The beginning
Sandra Casagrande arrived in France to study perfumery. Stepping off the train in Nice, she caught something on the sea breeze, an intoxicating smell she couldn't shake. Years later, she finally made it to Grasse. Amyi 2.15 is the fragrance she built from that journey: the Riviera's warm air, the memory of arrival, the yellow florals she first dreamed about in that coastal light.
Bergamot and clove leaf open the composition with a bright-spice tension that's resolved by raspberry's sweetness, a luminous note that bridges citrus and warmth. The heart builds through yellow florals: mimosa brings its characteristic honeyed sweetness and powdery texture, magnolia adds creamy petals with a subtle lemon nuance, and lily of the valley contributes fresh, green brightness that keeps the heart from becoming heavy. Together, they create a powdery softness that's the signature of this fragrance.
The evolution
Bergamot hits first, crisp and clean. Clove leaf adds warmth beneath the surface. Raspberry arrives sweet and bright, like sunlight cutting through spice. Twenty minutes in, the florals emerge. Mimosa takes the lead, honeyed, slightly powdery. Magnolia and lily of the valley soften everything, creating a creamy floral warmth. The drydown belongs to vanilla and patchouli, wrapping the florals in warmth. Musk and vetiver ground it. The drydown stays close, intimate, warm but never heavy, powdery but never dusty.
Cultural impact
Amyi 2.15 occupies a quiet corner of the 2021 Oriental Floral space, powdery, warm, intimate. Built for those who want florals that don't announce themselves. The kind of fragrance that rewards patience, unfolding slowly over hours rather than making a statement on its first spray.
The House
AmyiAmyi is a fragrance house that has released multiple scent collections spanning from 2019 through 2025. The brand's naming convention reveals a structured approach to fragrance development, with releases organized into series marked by both numerical sequences (such as the 2.x series featuring 2.10, 2.11, 2.12, and 2.13) and Roman numeral designations (I through VII). This systematic methodology suggests a brand built around coherent collections rather than standalone releases. The house has maintained consistent output across multiple years, with notable activity in 2019 (the Roman numeral series) and 2021 (the 2.x series), followed by new additions in 2025. Publicly available information about the founder, creative director, or perfumer behind Amyi remains limited, making this a relatively opaque house in an industry where brand identity often centers on individual creatives.
The Creator
Sandra CasagrandeSandra favors a transparent palette that highlights natural extracts. She often begins with a clear top note—citrus or green accords—to set the stage, then introduces heart ingredients such as jasmine, rose, or tea that add depth without masking.
