I like it

So… lots of people will no doubt find this fragrance not to their liking. It is very synthetic/floral, and frankly, is a bit of a departure from every other Amouage I’ve sampled. On the other hand, I don’t like those nearly as much as I like this. I tend to like synthetics in general, and while this isn’t even my favorite synthetic, I find that when I wear this I frequently stop and ask myself “hmm..do I like this?” And the answer is “yes I do.” So in that way it works for me.

It does have some sillage, as this is the only fragrance my husband has noticed me wearing without being right up next to him. It lasts about 10-12 hours on my skin to the faintest traces. I actually prefer it after a few hours once it isn’t quite so aggressively rose-y. I got a manufacture’s sample of it and didn’t like at first because I thought it was too heavy and loud. It was only later I noticed that I liked the way my wrist smelled.

I don’t think it is worth the price of a full bottle, if only because the bottles are really expensive. I did buy a decant after I used up my sample though.
