Amazona

The Heeley brand often leaves me at a loss. I have ordered several times the beautiful test atomizers, which are delivered in a small black box. L'Amandière was in the first order, which was some years ago. At that time I found it unusual, but I was not convinced. The 2nd test was in a phase where chypre and leather scents and a little green were my favourites.
Now was the 3rd test phase, which arose because the glass nebulizer fell and broke while taking another sample. A wonderful smell spread throughout the room.
Lime blossom and almond exist in parallel, along with hyacinth, which is pleasingly less dominant. This light flower mixture with the crisp green almond lasts very long. This is not a fresh fragrance. It is rather a comforter for very personal moments or moods.
So to speak the partner of Serge Lutens "de Profundis". One has his chrysanthemum, the other his almond. L'Amandière is not made for the general public, no everybody's darling, but you wear it for yourself, whether woman or man. A fragrance with recognition value.
I really like him now.

My first comment at Parfumo, because two lines of a statement are not enough to describe this fragrance. I'm in love with shock!
My first day of vacation, I had an appointment, but it was too early. In Corona times, you don't wait. You pass the time. The path led past an owner-operated perfumery. The assortment is not a niche, but also not ordinary.
I got the opportunity to test several fragrances from the brand Le Couvent.
The first thing that caught Solano's eye was the packaging wrapping, which really aroused his curiosity: a wandering dune all around, a cheetah at the edge. Ylang-ylang / Davana describes the main actors. After the spraying I immediately felt transported to the African savannah in the evening, although I have never experienced it live.
Davana is obviously the star of the fragrance. Fruity, flowery, balsamic is the oil that is in the fragrance in a higher percentage. Warm and enveloping is this composition, in which I do not smell any other distinct notes. Davana and a pleasant sweetness and light spiciness. I also like the name. Solano is a hot wind.
He's gonna be a frequent flyer. The scent is clearly unisex. The shelf life is very good. Due to the perfume oil content the Sillage is super. The price is unbeatable for this quality. The whole brand is worth a test. I'm in.
