In the Eye of the Sun...!

Who smells so indescribably good here? This was the question from the lady in the elevator as I was on my way to the pool. Her husband looked aggravated at the question. It wasn't him? What a foolish question when there are three of you in the elevator...or provocative? Something similar or striking always happened to me when I wore Sunshine by Amouage. I still don't know exactly what it is. Guesses...?

Heat and body temperature probably play a decisive role here - they make the fragrance blossom considerably. (We'll leave out the choice of swimming trunks!) An extremely warm and humid straw tree opens the game. Warm, dry hay lightly surrounded by dried lavender. Strongly infused with a liqueur-like orange note. Quaffable and not exactly light. A balsamic-herbaceous clary sage rounds off warmly and very skillfully and softens with an alcoholic-fresh juniper note. Finally, the fragrance sinks like a sunset into an infinitely long and warm note of dry, warm vanilla and spicy, soft, creamy tonka. God knows... pretty attractive!
Conclusion
Lucky is the man who still has a bottle of Amouage Sunshine. That much can already be said. Its prices are now rising astronomically as it is no longer produced for one bottle. I was very lucky to get another bottle of it. Even if only an opened tester on the Canary Islands. After all...! Sunshine Man by Amouage may well be the most expensive sun cream in the world, but it's worth every drop. The sun has been captured here with all its power and glory. And who says the sun is feminine? Maybe it is also male? Who knows...?!

When the heat comes, so does the longing. And faster than expected! When the sea, the beach or the pool calls you, Sunshine by Amouage will make everything more beautiful that can hardly be made more beautiful. Promise....!

And so we look into the eye of the sun...!

I always get asked about my swimming trunks in the elevator... ;-)
Joking aside, it's certainly a beautiful fragrance, but fortunately not for me. You are therefore allowed to wear it (but it would be if I liked it).

Cheers my friend!
I had a very pleasant Cointreau here, great lavender.
At least you got hold of another bottle.
Enjoy the contents!

My dear friend!
I'm glad to have gotten a Sunshine Man of the old generation at all. But I can keep my eyes open. Certainly for you. But I saw one last time for 600€ or 700€!πŸ™ˆπŸ˜‚ Thank you very much and best regards..πŸ™πŸ½πŸ€—

THE moon is female!
So THE sun must be male!

Either way! Whether sun, moon or stars. I'll take them all! Gender has never played a role for me with fragrances and in general anyway. I've always taken what I like. It was the same when choosing a partner! πŸ€­πŸ˜‚ Sunshine Man is also excellent on women, by the way. Unisex for me...!
Thank you my dear...!πŸ™πŸ½πŸ˜‰

Yes, that's true
I'm still wondering if it goes down better at cooler - around 12-16 degrees, due to the sultry note as you described.
I've had it in my collection since 2015 ;_)

The fragrance seems to suit you very well 😊🌞Sounds super nice too. I didn't find the women's version that exciting. I often like the men's fragrances from Amouage better.
Have fun with it! πŸ˜‰

A wonderful comment on a particularly beautiful summer fragrance! My bottle emptied a couple of weeks ago and I was blown away...what a bottle they are asking for. 😳 Too bad.....

The new edition isn't exactly cheap as it is. But an old vintage in a beautiful sky-blue wooden box beats it by far! How lovely to hear from you and a big thank you! πŸ™πŸ½πŸ₯°πŸ˜˜

Aptly described. I also love it very much...on vacation...after a hot day, at sunset, dinner, when the Mediterranean buildings radiate the warmth of the day

So,so stories from the elevator. 😁
I haven't heard of Sunshine Man yet.
Sounds quite pleasant, seems to be a sunny guy.
With Sunshine Woman I got a nasty, synthetic disturbing note, which ruined the fragrance for me.
Whether the current, male new edition can keep up is not yet known.

The lady's question in the elevator sounded more like an accusation than a compliment. I felt a bit sorry for the husband,,,he didn't have much to say!πŸ˜‚ With most of the old generation Amouage, there were rarely any disturbing notes. I can imagine that this is more the case with the new generation. A lot of synthetics have also been used recently. Unfortunately πŸ˜‰
Thank you Mermaids.πŸ™πŸ½ πŸ§œπŸ½β€β™€οΈ 😘

Oh yes, one of my favorite Amouages. It's hard for me to understand why it was discontinued.

I don't understand it either!? You can still buy it from Amouage itself. However, there are only a few remaining stocks of the new generation. Then that's it!πŸ₯Ή

Of course I had a smile on my face because I was able to get hold of another bottle of it πŸŒžπŸ€©πŸ€— But joking aside. I'm very happy to have got hold of an old vintage tester. Spray-on sun is indispensable!🫠🌞πŸ₯°

Your description sounds very seductive, but lavender in combination with vanilla and tonka make me hesitate. I imagine Caron, and although I would have loved this fragrance, it was the opposite in the long run. I recently tried Scotch Lavander, which unfortunately didn't last either. But nothing can beat sunshine and a pool! Have a good rest!

Hello Can777,
very nice review, but I can give you a heads up. The Sunshine is listed for sale again on the Amouage website. 😊
Can777Can777 25 days ago
@ManuTheV
Thank you for the information.πŸ™πŸ½πŸ€— But I know!
However, these are only remnants of the newer generation. Then it no longer exists. A vintage bottle of the old generation is incredibly expensive and very hard to find now. The old Sunshine Man is and was even more powerful and rich...!

I vaguely remember that "Eye of Ra" is not only a symbol of power, but also of enormous destructiveness... 😍

So Sunshine Man is already powerful at the beginning. But not in a destructive way. Rather positive and renewing. He grinds beautiful images...🫠😊

In many languages, the sun is masculine... Congratulations on the bottle! I only know the Sunshine Women so far and like it, help, maybe I would like this one even better... πŸ™ˆ And I would also be curious about the swimming trunks.

Mrs.Can also has the Sunshine Woman. It's beautiful too! Since I know you, I'm also afraid that you would like the Sunshine Man. Compliments are guaranteed! And pssst.... a Speedo in the Brazilian national colors!🀫😊 πŸ‡§πŸ‡·
