      Reflection was my first Amouage. It is one of their lighter scents. I currently have Honour which is a really nice floral, however it does have tuberose in it. I would recommend trying Dia which is soapy, aldehydic floral with some other notes like sandalwood. It is light and strong at the same time. I am thinking to get a full bottle. I have the body lotion and several samples of Portrayal. I really like it but for now not wanting a full bottle and to me it definitely has some animalic note in it even though it is not listed. It is beautiful and a bit strange at the same time. For bolder and more oriental scents I love Lyric, Epic and Memoir, but not sure they would be your cup of tea as they are strong. I also love Sunshine.

    The Ivory Route gets way more feminine in the drydown. I'm female and have Ivory routr and my first impression was exactly the same: that it is rather masculine. But that changes quite fast. I recommend you give it abother try for some time on your skin 😊

    I’m glad to hear a fragrance reviewer talk about how some of us like more feminine fragrances. Personally I will go so far as say I don’t like masculine or unisex. For instance I purchased Gris Charnel and loved it for awhile, only to now think it is too masculine. It will be a great gift for my son!

    Ivory route!!!! I was in London, year 2016. Christmas shopping at Harrods. That is where I first experienced Xerjoff and the Penhaligon line. I found one of my favourite Xerjoffs there and have never looked back! Please give it time. Yes, it has that masculine edge but wait for it to mesh with your skin. I know you will LOVE it!!! It is what I imagine Angelina Jolie would wear if she wore a Xerjoff (I love her 😄). Also, test it on your skin. It is so different on skin than on paper.

    Really enjoyed this style of video - speed sampling! Would recommend trying Erawan on skin and giving it some time. At first, I was like, "bracing green men's cologne - NOPE." But 15 minutes later, it'd gone creamy, soft and sweet. It's so unique and peaceful, I had to have it! Not saying you'll necessarily find it FBW, but you may enjoy the drydown. Can't recall what else you've tried from Dusita, but consider sampling more of her florals - Mélodie de l'Amour, Fleur de Lalita and my instant love La Douceur de Siam. Perfumer Pissara does flowers so beautifully, IMO! Her new one, Anamcara, is on its way to meee 🤗

    Totally agree about the Lucky scent fragrance vials! Ivory route reminded me of Initio Rehab, which is basically an overpriced Viktor&Rolf Spicebomb (men's frag), which also smells good. I have an Amouage Portrayal decant and it reminds me of Givenchy l'interdit's older sister, if that makes sense. It's refined, less loud, and the sillage is there! I'd recommend a decant off ebay for around $20. Good luck! ❤ great review.

    Hmmm always hard to predict what people will like and what they won’t but I’m not sure you would love Portrayal, it’s feminine but very bold and the Jasmine really packs a punch. It’s very heady and enveloping. I actually think the most approachable Amouage fragrances I’ve ever tried are Ashore, Reflection (if you don’t mind melon-y cucumber-y vibes) and Meander (oh- and Sunshine haha).
    I think those dabber samples are universally hated ☺️ I can’t understand why luckyscent persist with them. Their customers have been complaining for years!

One you may like is Tiger Tiger (or is it Tyger Tyger?). I can't remember, but that one is deep and warm, encompassing and lovely, and not animalic, or not to my nose 😊

  • @tayloredmonds5105
    @tayloredmonds5105 Před 2 lety

    I have Portrayal and I love it! It starts with a bright, hyperrealistic jasmine laced with a tuberose edge that at times goes just a hint mentholated. Then this deep, warm, resinous base kicks in from the vanilla, tobacco, and elemi. On my skin, the tobacco isn't ashy or smokey. It's more of a cross between an unlit cigarette and unlit cigar. The base is 50% resinous vanilla/elemi, 25% tobacco, 25% white floral. It smells rich (both financially and fragrance-y, lol), and intriguing. I find myself going back to sniff my wrists constantly when I wear it. Since it's a bold jasmine on a deep base, I feel like fans of Alien would enjoy the similar note composition. (It doesn't smell like Alien but follows the same journey if that makes sense). My only concern for you would be that the bold white floral opening could give you a headache. Worth a shot to try on skin!

    I have Fig Tea & love it 🤍 it’s so cozy & I also have Do Son EDP 🌸 it’s so beautiful 😍 & I have Initio Musk Therapy it’s an incredible fragrance - my husband & I share it. Just love the blackcurrant in it 🤍 it’s not a fragrance for beginners I would say. I HAVE tried PORTRAYAL Woman by Amouage & it was WAY too intense for me (thank goodness for samples) It’s very heavy, thick white flowers and has an accord I didn’t like at all. May be the elemi. I think you would like either For Your Love or Luxury by MIZENSIR - they are very feminine and expensive smelling.

    I find all the Amouages challeging. Also Portrayel. None of them goes the "classic" way, and that challenges me a bit. I owned Blossom Love, Love Mimosa and Sunshine. So sold first to.
    I havnt found a feminin, more "classic" scent yet from Amouage, and tested them all..but they are interesting!!!
    The new ones are quite interesting. Cant remember there names though..🤔😊

      No just amouage, I’m struggling with most perfumes, I don’t appreciate this unisex trend. Some things are meant to stay in their role, because I don’t want to walk around smelling masculine or smelling like black currant and lavender. Which are two prominent notes found in men colognes.

  • @nas4947

    I love love tuberose from Amouage. My other favorites are lilac love, lyric, dia and gold (none of these are safe blind buys). I don’t like Portrayal at all! All I can smell in that is tobacco. I’m very surprised that other comments say they mostly smell jasmin. I get no floral, I smell only tobacco.

    • @isabelallard2674
      @isabelallard2674 Před 2 lety +1

      I agree. On my skin it smells like smoke in the dry down, almost like an ashtray, I don't smell fresh tobacco leaves, which I would like. The jasmin is only there in the opening. Sometimes I try it and it's a little different. Overall it's a very hard one to like, and certainly not one for Ilythia imo. 😊

      It’s a very distinct potent woody note that can smell sometimes more dirty or sometimes cleaner depending. Fragrantica describes it as rich, nutty and musty. Once you know it you can’t forget it.
