hello again, 90s yellow flower amber
To me smells dated, but divinely so! Sunny, sultry yellow floral with sweet, warm amber. Like a red-checkered slip dress with a white t-shirt and straw hat with a giant daisy. Ad the Docs and John Lennon round sunglasses and I am right back in the prime of my youth. Nostalgic in the best way!
We just don't see these powder-bomb ylangs anymore, which is a crying shame. Think Goutal's Songes, but with a bright tea rose and semi-soapy lily. Relaxed, but put-together. Hard-working, but with a sense of humor. All subjectives aside, if you enjoy sort of heavy-lidded yellow florals, coquettish blush of sweetness, and grounding amber-woods, try Ombre d'Or (golden shade). I have the EDP but plan to get the parfum, too, to see if it has more throw (will update on that page). As-is, the EDP is low-moderate sillage/projection. Just lovely.
