Néroli Amara

I tried this on the suggestion of a K pop star and he did NOT lie. Neroli Amara is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than Tom Ford's Neroli Portofino and lasts longer, too.

This is soft and strong at the same time - classy light perfectly blended neroli. It’s both uplifting and and just a touch sweet. It’s familiar but better than the thing you remember. I smell orange, but nothing bitter not too fizzy either; the green notes are soothing and blended instead of bright. Even though it is familiar smelling there is something mysterious and alluring in this as well. The perfect iteration of neroli and I smell some kind of tea note in the dry down not bitter just smooth grounded and some fresh green like a pine forest way way in the background. There is something in this that calms me down. This perfume needs to be worn, testing on paper doesn’t do it justice it is also a lovely layering scent - I have received compliments wearing this spritzed with a warm vanilla scent underneath. I usually buy decants because I love chasing new scents but this is full bottle worthy! I can’t wait to try it in spring and summer as well. I’ve heard it shines in warm weather (I’ve only worn it in cold dark winter so far)
