06 Amanu

Amanu is a woody fragrance, but the highlight is not the woods, these are in the background, but the remarkable note of blood orange, which appears cool but not incisive, with a sweet spot, floral nuances with similar facets to neroli achieved by the point of jasmine and all this makes a fragrance with a very natural feel and accomplished background. Amanu has a green dot due to Galbanum that highlights not only the citrus scent of orange, but leads us to the smell of leaves and other point that makes us smell the tree trunk in the middle notes thanks to the contribution of wood cedar. The musky dry skin sets in this facet wooded until the final drying with a musky and slightly damp spot. The qualities and the mixture are good. right length without being excellent and low projection, which makes it ideal for daytime use and hot seasons. For my taste more wake would have been better. The effect is to be smelling an orange as a whole: first we open the fruit, then wring the leaves and finally a piece of bark and even roots, all with a very realistic effect. Rating: 6

I really like this, and don't understand the negative reviews. I like to wear Mandragore by Annick Goutal (I like the orange woodiness of it) and since Im out I was about to place an order when I came across this at a super cheap price. I blind bought it hoping for the best, and Im happy to report it's one of my more successful blind buys. 06 opens with a brisk blood orange that reminds me of the opening of Hermes Eau de Rhubarbe Ecarlate. But instead of the fruity musk that plagues Hermes, this is more floral. The white flowers are sweet like they are in Tom Ford Soliel Blanc but way more smooth and they stay far in the background. Then the cedar and green notes kick in and this part has a mild medicinal/antiseptic feel. This unusual contrast tames the floral/citrus notes and makes them seem clean, modern and tilts this slightly masculine. Overall high quality, unusual, distinctive and elegant. Thumbs way way up.

gelo999 has described this fragrance well, so no need for me to reinvent the wheel. I'll limit myself in saying that this is a great scent, but unfortunately overspraying is mandatory given its historically poor performance . A "love" downgraded to just "like" because of its poor performance - unacceptable for a fragrance at that price point. Really great unisex and unique scent, but glad I paid only a fraction of its original price for a partial bottle on ebay. Spring/Fall days, 25+ Edit: this scent is simply heavenly: ultra relaistic fresh/whie floral garden on top on a rounded musky cedar base, with a vague impression of tobacco in the late drydown (moss). Upgraded to a small love, as a bit of overspraying solves many problems.
