Paying homage to Poseidon
A fragrance from under the hand of Karine Vinchon-Spehner, who created my favorite perfumes for Amouage so far, namely Myths, Boundless, and Overture. I was quite skeptical about it at first; on paper it appeared as incense and by the first reviewers it was described as a marine fragrance. This caused some dissonance; moreover, neither one nor the other strand is among my favorites. However, I trusted the author and I will say that I was not disappointed and in fact very positively surprised.
The first puff, I sniffed and the beginning seemed very unpleasant: sweet, marine, even fishy. Then I thought: "what have I done, why did I need it?". However, it's a matter of a few minutes and there is a transition to the right scent and this one is downright fantastic! A very comfortable patchouli and sea fragrance, which vibrates with a gentle minerality known for example from Megamare (here, fortunately, in a light version). Frankincense, on the other hand, occurs deep in the background, making the scent create a mint-menthol bubble around us. A cool cooling effect that probably gets the job done on warmer days. In the deep base the patchouli becomes a bit more spicy. The fragrance could be described as a temple of Poseidon perched on a cliff washed by the waves of the Mediterranean. In short: my favorite among the brand's recent releases.
