Amalgam A Liza Witte 2020
4
Hand rolled in Amsterdam
Liza Witte's fragrances come in a cardboard wrapper. Hand made in every way, which is nice. It adds a bit of indie flavour. Plus it is a Dutch house that combines design with body care products, so we are off to a great start.
Amalgam A is not the most alluring name for a perfume, but I guess it refers somehow to the typical 'golden glow' of amber. Because this is in fact a full-on amber perfume. It starts with a certain cognac-like scent that keeps me in a chokehold for a while, but that gets sorted out along the way. When it all settles down, the amber remains with some faint woody and sugary notes on the side. And lots of smoke, cold smoke.
Apart from the boozy opening the perfume wears light and it is pretty wearable for an indie brand. I guess it shows that she is a product designer and has eye for functionality as well as creativity.
