Good work Mr. Bonneville
.... It's now been six months since my niche fragrance journey with YOU began. I heard about you, tested you in KaDeWe and was blown away at the first sniff. Your golden eyes, your warm, creamy ambery tail had me in stitches, but I was still a little green behind the ears. I didn't see your true sensual beauty next to the dragon conquerors and bodybuilders like Ombre Nomade. Sure, you were beautiful, incredibly beautiful, but still a little reserved in your appearance. I didn't realize your intention at the time, that sometimes silence is golden. You don't have ADHD, you don't have to talk much and prefer to observe, but you still seduce those who come close to you. Now I know that elegance doesn't have to be intrusive. You act in the background and yet you are incredibly self-confident and still somehow there. I had to have you back then, bought you, and on my further journey you got a little lost in my wardrobe next to all the beasts and we parted ways. I never got over it and when I gained more knowledge I ventured back to Ku'damm and bought you a second time. The job of an amber fragrance is not to fill entire concert halls. It is not in your interest to stand in the middle and shout that you are there and that people should please pay attention to you. You, my dear Dark Amber, are incredibly beautiful just the way you are. Everyone around you notices you, but not over 300 meters away. A partner will notice you for an incredibly long time, I will also notice you for a long time and others will also recognize you in the open air and be seduced by your beauty.
Mr. Bonneville has done a great job with this perfume and it is not without reason that he is the most popular Birkholz. As I just described, amber fragrances are seen the wrong way from my point of view and I was like that at the beginning. They are not screamers but very soft and sensual. Dark Amber is pretty much the most beautiful amber fragrance I've had under my nose and, above all, it retains its boundless beauty, whereas Amber Star, one of Xerjoff's most popular amber fragrances, eventually develops a very unpleasant sweetness. I have a comparison, but I won't go into it here. The bottle is generally rated a 7.4. If you consider that the bottle of Le Male by Gaultier is rated with a 7.7, you should realize that the value of the Dark Amber bottle is absolutely absurd and in no way reflects reality and no, I am not a Birkholz fanboy, if then from Xerjoff. The longevity is absolutely outstanding and the sillage is very good by amber standards. The fragrance comes with a perfect amber-vanilla-tonka bean combination, the sweet seductive scent makes me dream over and over again. I have never smelled anything like it before and I have really spent a lot of money on testers from many well-known manufacturers in the last six months.
