Interlude Man Amouage 2012

I have from Amouage, besides Interlude, Reflection, Sunshine, and Lyric so far. However, in my opinion, Interlude stands out significantly.

In terms of longevity, no perfume can compete with Interlude. I was able to smell it on my turtleneck even 3 weeks later. Also, when it comes to sillage, no one can match it. When you wear it, people can smell you before you even enter the room. 100%.

It should also be mentioned that, despite its strength, it simply doesn't overwhelm me. This is probably because the ingredients are very natural, hardly artificially made. So it is very pleasant to wear. Only when it comes to the scent occasionally hitting the nose can it become a bit nauseating, but that can be overlooked.

Now let's talk about the scent itself. Very, very resinous and smoky, but with a slight touch of "luxuriousness." And the scent gets better the longer it lingers.

What seems to go unnoticed by everyone here, but I can definitely smell, is that it becomes very, very chocolatey in the dry down. I wouldn't classify it as a gourmand because of the opening, but it becomes very, very deliciously chocolatey after about 5-6 hours. I have rarely experienced such a versatile scent. Definitely worth every cent. A clear 10/10 in all 4 categories.
