Amoral

This fragrance is very enticing and interesting. At first sniff, it's very dusty, powdery, dirty, oily (I almost think of some form of oil/petroleum), although it's not even like that. But those are some of the first associations that last instantly when the perfume is applied. Then this miracle turns into something most beautiful dirty, dusty, powdery, I would say slightly animalistic. A very seductive perfume with an interesting character that is definitely not for everyone and may not suit everyone. If I could make it easier for people here with this comparison. Trussardi - Behind The Curtain, Philip Plein- No Limits, Fragrance One by Jeremy- Black Tie.. These would be some kind of guidelines and comparisons. Although this perfume is made in a totally different way, but in layman's terms it can belong to this category of perfumes mentioned above. And it is definitely the crown above all those listed here. Truly a masterpiece. 9/10 Definitely to try, definitely to give a chance, definitely expensive, definitely interesting concept and backstory of the perfume/brand in general, definitely a stupid marketing move to double the price of the perfume on Black Friday (instead of the original amount of 200 euros they increased it to 400 euros, and when buying on Black Friday at the price 400 euros you donated 50% for children with mental difficulties. I consider it a very nice gesture, a really humane gesture for once.. but a relatively young, enthusiastic, art, charismatic brand to double the price for 50 ml. of juice on Black Friday? Yes.. ok guys but f*** off with this. I don't want to appear that I don't support any humanitarian action, but it is known that a humanitarian action can be separated from a purchase or a part of a purchase. It can be an action in the sense - we reduced only 10% on Black Friday, but those 10 % goes to donations. I think that would be a much smarter marketing move.I repeat that I respect, support and appreciate any humanitarian action. No doubt. But this is apparently simply the wrong time in the wrong place. That I'm rich? I would probably buy and support this kind of action. But how many of us small ordinary people with basic jobs and medium incomes are here, who like "expensive" niche perfumes? I was saving money for Black Friday to buy Amoral..expecting a discount..and in the end I had a table to see... anger and some kind of positive side worked in me. A bit of a disappointment of course...but I was more of an attitude...don't screw me up. LoL / WT* is this ?? Come on.., don't f**** me / Is this possible? Is this happening?? this would be an ideal example : You as a child.. you look forward to Santa Claus, put a sock by the fireplace or under the Christmas tree, and instead of Santa Claus, the Grinch comes to you and brings you Easter eggs and a nest ,and a chocolate rabbit. + You get a whip from Krampus. Fragrance: 9/10 Uniqueness : 8/10 Durability: 8/10 Excellent durability, I am very satisfied, it projects for 2 hours quite a bit, then subsides and stays on the skin for a long time. Price : With its uniqueness, durability, projection, it justifies this amount of 200 euros for 50 ml. of this unique juice. And it is a perfume extract, so it makes sense. Design / Koncept: An interesting brand, which won me over with its approach, idea about everything,how they create and how. A very interesting young duo. The bottles are beautiful and have a heavy cap, which I personally love in fragrances.

Aromatic powdery and dry woody opening Gives off very clean vibes Soon spicy and aromatic cardamom takes over but is quickly pushed to the background as dry powdery woods become the center The oud here is not the typical skanky variation but it's rather dry and only a bit aromatic I'd say the fragrance is more focused on sandalwood, with iris for powdery qualities and cardamom for aromatics As it's completely dried it gets a bit animalic (i'm gussing the oud qualities popping through) It's a linear fragrance so don't expect much development from it however, it's beautiful to wear especially in the autumn as it's clean and polished and makes for a great transition fragrance for cooler weather It reminds me a bit of gris charnel minus the fig and more aromatic (i guess, have to revisit gris haha) It has beautiful sillage and i am completely obsessed with it

I'm happy that some people don't like it, thanks for the gatekeeping. : D The notes in it harmonize very well with each other. I really like the strange "inky" oud at the start, which is not as harsh as in the case of Alexandria II for example. It doesn't have that "old furniture" or "hospital" vibes at all, more like modern, inky vibe. But then, during the dry down...I'm not sure what I feel. I think the mix of the plum and iris but not an overly sweet, fruity one. More like a subtle, seducing, smokey-powdery plum and iris. The most noticeable and addictve note in it. It has quite good silage with very good longevity (eternal on clothes). In my opinion this masterpiece requires some wears to fully understand.

I agree with the previous evaluations it's woody, smokey with soap bar freshness. It leans towards matured masculine profile. The only thing I hate is the cumin note in the perfumery which is also the case here. Still I love it. 8.5/10 Update: Coming back after 1 week of trying and I think it's one the best fragrances in the lineup. It's so clean, mysterious and long lasting. I mentioned that I hate cumin note because it's typically too intense cuisine like or invokes sweaty notes. Here they defined how cumin should be used in perfumery. Such a smooth blend.

The more I wear this the more I love it and realize how unique it is! Signature scent worthy. Dry dusty woody. Dusty dryness antique shop. Sophisticated, clean. I didn't really get the lime or plum notes at first, but they are there, subtly (not in a fruity way). More like the skin of an old dry lime. Dryness, tea, spices, cardamom, woods. The oud is not anything like the oud in "Hacivat Oud"... it's very smooth, nothing barnyard or funky. I think it could be too much to wear to the office, but wear it out and about around the city, shopping, drinks, etc.

-How would a dark mystery smell like? -How can dirt (in a pleasant way) and cleanness get along and so well blended? -How can flora’s raw materials captivating also fauna’s animalic secrets? -How can an ethical man becoming Amoral? This masterpiece from Pernoire is not for everybody. You have to embrace it first, in order to get along with it. Some say it shares the same dna with Alexandria II from Xerjoff but as a person who wore both, there is no comparison. Amoral is a next level showcase scent. @strange_scents

A dry dusty like scent with a dash of powder. I've never tried Alexendria from Xerjoff so to me this is pretty unique. This ones requires multiple wearings and scenarios to understand. My initial thought is. Not for me, not that special. My rating would be 7/10. I appreciate it, but not for me. If my mind changes after multiple wears, i'll update my score. Update... Ok, yes now I get it. This is amazing. The dry aspect started to smooth out and it got very sophisticated. Very addictive. Updating my score 9/10

Really woody, smokey, dark scent, at the drydown it picks up some soapy/fresh scent, but oud/wood is still like 90% of the scent, perfect for gloomy winter days, it lasts almost a whole day. Between this and Masar, which is similar, I chose Amoral because it's more dark and woody, while Masar is more lively and more ambery/leathery, but don't get me wrong, Masar is also really good. I really dig this one, it goes with my character, and I'm planning to make it my signature scent for the winter.

Absolute stunner. Master class in perfumery. Not overly powdery as it’s been said to be. Didn’t get a bit of that. The oud is beautiful Smokey and smooth, the plum is dark but sweet and it’s all blended together with elegant iris for a gorgeous blend like nothing else. Absolutely wipes the floor with Alexandria II as it has none of those annoying amber woods. Much like the statue of David depicted on the bottle, it is a work of art in its own rite. 10/10.

Amoral is an easy top 10 fragrance. Beautiful and sophisticated and well crafted. Smoky iris and oud brought together with the rich vanilla in the tonka. Hints of spice but its very light. I feel like this is a more refined and mature version of Dior homme intense. Pernoire make great fragrance and this is definitely one of them. Couldn't recommend it as a blind buy unless you like either oud or Dior homme intense

Lovely beast! Oud and smoke. It gets a bit soapy at the end and that’s not my fav though.

It's special but I don't appreciate the oud/cumin combo

reminds me of the musuems in athens

I ordered samples of the three new Pernoire frags - Poka, Anelo and Melos, appreciated the complexity and went back to my discovery set. first time around I was not blown away by anything for myself and thought all of them leaned too masculine for my taste. But now after revising all samples I actually like quite a few. these are complex scents, not light, not easy wear, but very alluring and special. this particular one definitely leans masculine in my view, but it's the most special in the set and among the perfumes that I sampled and consider masculine, for two reasons: 1) you reeeeeally need to give it 15mins, it has to open to show its beauty; 2) it's a beautiful powdery iris in the heart which magically doesn't take away from masculinity. Really special.

Seems like everyone smells this a little differently, but to me this is mainly a smooth plum and oud. Opens with a very slightly funky sweat which dissipates quickly so there may be some real oud in here and not just cypriol. Not getting much tea or smoke, just an ambery oud dry down with some spices (not getting too much cumin except for the sweaty note maybe). As you would expect it lasts a long time, but doesn’t project heavily. Good but can’t say I would pay for a full bottle. I usually don’t bother pairing clothes with fragrance but I feel like this calls for a black suit, but could just be the name suggestion.

Amoral The first whiff I took from this fragrance it immediately reminded me of Alexandria from Xerjoff. It has good projection and if you like fragrances that are more dirty and powdery, then you should try this one out. It’s a fragrance that I go back for a second smell, to try to embrace it and inderstand it. For the price, projection, sillage and everything around it this fragrance is a solid 8

Powdery fragrances throw me off. This one is an interesting one. It has moments where the powderiness of the iris dominates, then at others it seems to verge on a gourmand. Then again, there's a smoky quality. More testing needed. I'm not mad about it though. I'm quite enjoying being taken for a ride

Smoky oud with dark florals and plum, it’s definitely one of the more approachable smoky oud scents, smells like the color dark purple, and honestly would do really well on a dark and seductive woman. Villainous or a bit of an anti-hero with an edge to it.

This smells like smoked leather but there is no leather note in it.Leather accord created by mixture of spices(cumin,cardamom), oud and cypriol oil.like everything i tried from this house, it is smooth, smell high quality,natural and interesting

More masculine, dirtier Alexandria with amped up, barnyard type oud. Actually very pleasant and develops a lot during the whole time.

Two hours in and it still smells the same. It reminds me of a flea shampoo I bought my dog once. 🤔 Never again will I blind buy based on the hype of a "reviewer". Doesn't smell bad but definitely nothing special. Its not worth the money especially with it being so linear. This is an initial impression after 2 hrs so if anything changes after spending more time with it I'll be sure to update my review. BTW this can be worn year round with it being more suitable in the day time IMHO.

Western Oud with waxy Iris. Good quality but nothing groundbreaking. Smelled this many times before, the Wax in here reminds me of Bvlgari Man In Black. After 30min this transforms completely and it turns almost completely floral, violet and orange blossom are definitely there. It's a chameleon fragrance, starts masculine leaning unisex and ends up feminine, not for my liking but I appreciate what they did here.

Tried this on my skin and it was Very woody and dark, i got oud and woody notes and thats it but i probably get some iris too. It is very masculine and Incredibly Strong lasts more then 14h and projects very good, beast mode woody masculine dark. Not bad

Reminds me of Kiste by Slumberhouse (don't witch hunt me based on notes!). A smell of prunes, rubber and burning wood. An OK scent - brooding and pretentious. A scent with opinions. I imagine this scent rolling its eyes at me and flipping its hair in disgust at my ignorance.

Yikes, this stuff stinks on my skin. It's been two hours and it smells almost exactly like the industrial hand soap they have at hospital or airport bathrooms. Thank goodness I was gifted a 7.5ml travel decant of this stuff, and I didn't actually pay for it. I don't even know what makes it smell this way? Maybe the cypriol, cumin, plum, and smoke are combining into one of the most rank stenches ever? Either way, I'll probably be throwing this in the trash as I have no use for it. Ho hum.

I feel like something is broken with my nose when it comes to this fragrance. The note pyramid and many of the reviews are completely different than my perception of this scent. I don't get anything that resembles oud as I know it. To me it has a sharp, sour wood smell mixed with soap, but not like luxury hotel soap like Imagination. This is like an industrial detergent. It leans powdery but not aggressively so. It triggered a scent memory of the bottom level of my grandmother's split-level 1950s home that was full of wood paneling, old carpet, and leather furniture. I actually like it overall, but I'm sad that it doesn't have the complexity that other people attest to. Don't think I would buy this at the asking price.

@therock you write like a 5yo. Instead of leaving these barely legible word salads everywhere on this site you should save up and get your brain fixed instead.

after drydown is 80% the same as alexandria orientale. I love it. Longlasting and projection outstanding.

Cumin and pink chewing gum, for me. Eew. I really don’t get the hype despite trying it several times.

Never smelled this combination of notes before and sounds interesting. Might get a sample.

smells like those old beige organic gall soap bars
