Pastel Violet Perfection

There are fragrances that I like, but they leave me completely indifferent. Usually, these are scents that I categorize all in the same way: noble, high-quality, but still boring.

Even if I might be virtually stoned for this, Ametista also belongs to this category for me.

Ametista is pleasing and balanced from the very beginning. None of the mentioned notes stands out.

The fruits in the top note are subtly sour, the heart note is full-bodied floral, and the base is delicately sweet. Even the longevity and sillage leave no reason for complaint.

The namesake gemstone fits the fragrance theme very well, in my opinion, as Ametista strikes me as pastel violet.

Personally, Ametista is too smooth and naturally too floral for me. But personal preferences aside, they shouldn't be up for debate, yet it's hard to completely detach from them.

Those who are willing to pay the price for this fragrance probably want exactly that: pastel violet perfection.

Dear Lily, thank you very much for the testing opportunity!

Not everyone loves them, after all.

You should finally clear a shelf so I can put a trophy here too.

The amethyst isn't everyone's stone - I would rather gift you a smoky quartz, ;-).

I’d love to test this because I really like well-cut, clear, violet amethyst. But I prefer the old ones that haven’t been brightened or made more light-violet by irradiation. Shouldn’t Litsea Cubeba be a bit prickly?

I also had the Baldi fragrances as samples, but then I passed them on right away...

I feel the same way about some Amouage fragrances. They're made super elegantly, but they're just not for me :-)

That sounds a bit like polished boredom, and you can probably find that cheaper ;o)

Nice, Mr. Ergo :) I'm totally with you!
The text fits the scent: you'd almost fall asleep ;)

But the Bembel looks great in the picture.
