Scentrack: Jamiroquai - Everyday

For
some reason, I did not see the hidden beauty of this composition. To my nose,
Ambre was a banal and weak composition of the German fashion house
Baldessarini. Until one day I finally saw (smelt) the idea behind. Apparently Master
Morillas took a glass of Johnnie Walker Black and recreated the fruity and peaty
smell of the blend. Ambre possesses all the dram qualities – light fruitiness,
peated body and light sweetness. It opens with apple and very soft mandarin orange,
but soon the composition is overwhelmed by light leather and whisky nuances. It
further develops with amber and soft oak and vanilla that mimic a whisky cask.
Amber
is warm and soft, introverted, yet masculine. It is a pleasure to wear Ambre.
However, I would like Ambre to be a little bit stronger and outspoken. Ambre
Intense?
Ambre
is romantic like Riga during fall. Rich and introverted. Warm like a piece of
Baltic amber or a sip of whisky on a cold Daugava wind.

Really like your reviews! I'm very interested on this one. Seems good enough to blind buy it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words. Ambre is a very nice fragrance, unfortunately with spotty performance. Hope, you will like it.
