Francis, show me your soft side
Oh, Francis. How many times have I told you to stay away from me with those Sillage monsters. It's too sweet, too strong, too much. Almost always. Be it APOM Homme, whose orange blossom smells beguilingly, but puts you on the run faster than you can think. Or be it Gentle Fluidity Gold. An abstract combination of juniper and vanilla, where I seriously thought "Is this art or can this go away?"
I must admit, I like your success scent Le Male. If it's dosed right, mind you. Unfortunately, unfortunately, most carriers out there with him may not succeed. Not until today
Amyris was the first work that bore your signature, which taught me better. Of course, Amyris also has a powerful aura. Yet, even when overdosed, he never gets on my nerves. On the contrary. Amyris always seems finely balanced by his combination of fresh and sweet notes, which I like very much.
Yeah, I already liked the EdT. But the Extrait adds another one here. Francis, if there's a softer side to you, this is it. Despite the strong sillage, we have an almost tender scent here, with citrus, floral and woody notes balancing each other. None of the ingredients roar loudly "here", but they seem to play music together, and that as if perfectly rehearsed. Even the saffron, which I actually never really like, is so finely woven here that it can't annoy me at all. The tonka bean, which I sometimes find pompous, especially when I'm booming, smells delicious here. In my comment to the EdT I already wrote about the effect of Amyris on the soul. And in the current time such a soul-scent does simply incredibly well. Amyris Extrait refreshes and calms at the same time. Yes, this scent makes you happy.
My lover wore it recently on a beautiful summer's day. Although I instructed him that we were dealing with an extra, he naturally had to wear it lavishly. I liked it anyway. With every breath of wind I could catch a breeze of the delicious scent. And even in the evening hours the elixir had hardly lost anything.
It is admittedly a bit slippery. I have to admit that. My one tiny little criticism. If you want rough edges, Amyris isn't exactly the place for them. But on some days you don't need any nooks and crannies, you just need a simple, delicate, lovable companion, which should do nothing else but lift the mood. And Amyris does that with bravura.
Yes, Francis. I really like that soft side. It's a pity you don't show it often.
