It opens nice enough, lemony and green. I even smelled the cardamom. But quickly the black pepper and frankincense take over and ruin everything. Along with the saffron, they make the rose and cedar smell decayed, like they’ve been decomposing with the help of some old spicy licorice.

I see why they added benzoin — to sweeten it up. But that’s the wrong direction, IMHO. Sweeter dirt still smells like dirt. It brightens up the lemon which enhances the mothball vibe.

It’s a twist on the old chypre genre that doesn’t quite pan out. Rather than citrus over oak moss, its mothballs and dirt. My wife absolutelyhates it — “ says it smells like mothballs in a says it smells like mothballs in an old basement.” I’m still trying to understand it. There’s quite an evolution in the dry down
— it’s not linear by a long shot. The licorice and pepper starts to come out more, but that doesn’t make it better. Just more mothballs.

I thought I’d wear this to the office but I think it’s too weird and distracting. People aren’t going to complement you, but they’re gonna react and scratch their heads for sure, which leads me to the name… I don’t think “Epiphany” is right. This doesn’t smell like the satisfaction you get when solving a complex puzzle. A better name would have been “Meh”, which is more apropos should someone ask you how this really strong smelling weird dirt thing smells. YMMV.

I wore a decant of this to the office and I got compliments from women, one in particular who said, “I like my men to smell like men.” I think if you wear chypre or vetiver fragrances, or enjoy occasional musky earthy scents, I think you’re going to like this a lot. It’s not as beast mode or harsh as you might expect, and it’s quite approachable for a Middle Eastern scent if you’re not familiar. It’s an all-purpose scent, good for day or evening. Four sprays on skin (2 to the neck, 2 to the wrists) an hour before arriving to the office was perfect.

Bought this for my woman and she surprised me by wearing it on our anniversary. We met at a restaurant and not realizing she was wearing this, I caught a whiff of something sexy as hell as a breeze flew in when I held the door open for her. I was instantly turned on. We sat down at our table and I caught another whiff, and leaned into my woman. Holy smokes she smelled amazing. And best of all, Amazonia paired with every cocktail and our entire meal. Simply put, ATH knows how to straddle the line between classy, sassy, and smashy. Amazonia wears its name perfectly.

It's like standing on a rugged clifftop overlooking a powerful, churning ocean on a dramatic "electric blue" morning. A strong fresh wind whips around you that carries the scent of the sea mixed with the sharp, zesty aroma of a nearby citrus grove. A large wave crashes against the rocks below and a fine mist sprays up that hits your face like a jolt of cool clean energy that makes you feel wide awake and totally alive. I love this stuff. It's not the most complex formula from ATH, but it's super refreshing and blue-done-right. You can wear this stuff pretty much anywhere. Only thing is that the bottle is pitch black so you have no idea how much is in there, even if you scratch it.

I wore a decant of this to a club last night and an attractive woman walked right up to me, pulling me into her, pressing her body hard up to mine, and fervently said, “Whatever you’re wearing, I want it all over my body.” No joke. Then she asked me what it’s called and I said DesirToxic, and she said, “Of course it is.” I’m buying a full bottle today. Can’t make this stuff up.
