Wonderful Development.

The opening: a thick patch of too much caramel and hazelnut slaps you in the face.

This quickly fades though into a beautiful spicy wood freshness with vetiver and hay, accompanied by a twist of licorice.
Very Refined and Yum!

I admire this second stage, it is superbly composed.
It leaves me wondering where all the previous -oppressive- sweetness went.
Probably justifiably downgraded to serve the above mentioned concoction.

I only wish this second stage was a tad stronger.
Or have I become so numb while testing heavy perfumes, that any scent will have to blow my head of in order to be able to appreciate any sillage?...

A must try!

Aomassaï No.10

This fragrance opens with an interesting blend of woods, toasted hazelnuts and caramel. Incense and liquorice frame these notes and provide a salty-smoky contrast. Together with vetiver and various woods, incense dominates the mid development of the scent. The gourmand notes — nuts, caramel and orange — sweeten and balance the composition, but are no longer prominent. The more the fragrance develops, the more it loses substance and the woodsy notes give way to dried grass. Spices warm the last stages of the progression and create a beautiful woodsy-earthy dry down that is representative for the whole scent.

Burnt sugar, coffee-inflected woods

Aomassaï finds that common thread between hazelnuts, orange peel, caramel, and vanilla sugar the smoky, dark bitterness they all share when approaching smoking point, and emphasizes it with equally dark elements such as wenge wood, resins, and black, soft licorice.

It could have been a treacly mess, a sop to the modern taste for simple syrup in the gourmand category, but Aomassaï is never too sweet. Instead, the foodie elements are subjected to intense heat and distorted beyond what is commonly accepted as pleasant smelling. It is sweet and bitter in equal measure. Furthermore, the smoking resins, grassy vetiver, hay, and dark wenge woods tether the sweet notes and prevent them from becoming cloying.

Barely anybody mentions the vanilla in Aomassaï. I had used maybe a full quarter of my bottle before I realized that it has the most beautiful vanilla in the dry-down. Once I had mentally subtracted all of the burned caramel and incense and nutty notes, I finally noticed it, and the sense of revelation was like finally spotting the image in a Magic Eye painting. Now it's almost my favorite part of Aomassaï, that deep, dark vanilla. It is both smoking hot and paper dry.

Specifically, to me, it smells like someone peeling an orange in a coffee shop fragrant with the aroma of burned coffee grounds and old newspapers strewn everywhere on dark, rickety wooden tables. In my mind's eye, this coffee place is intimately dark and cozy. It's not the kind of place you'd wander into casually. You'd have to mean it. But once you're there, you're one of the regulars.

It owns my heart.

Again, another one that I find to be super sexy. I can't understand it! I don't like caramel, nor liquorice, and I hate most of the orange notes but somehow, he mixes them soooo well that I can't stop thinking about it. The opening is very coffee-centered, and then I lose my attention thinking how bad I want to smell it on my boyfriend's neck. Ah, Guillaume. He makes me horny.
