Love it or hate it in pure culture / Look at the lower shelves!
In short: This fragrance is a sensation!
I think there's some interesting stuff in the mainstream chains at the bottom of the shelves. That which does not interest the mainstream so much. Good for me - I'm not the Prada L'Homme type (which, by the way, I find frighteningly moderate, other topic).
It was this autumn that boredom drifted along on Düsseldorf's Königsallee into the fragrance shop with the D. Just look, smell, buy nothing. The floor shelves, at the bottom where nobody looks - they were unknown flacons. One was blue, with a silver cap. Alyssa Ashley "OUD" for him. Never heard of it, never worn it. Okay, oud's an argument, you can get to that...
Opps, what's that, please? Smell again. Gross. Disturbingly beautiful! What's that, please? And why is this scent at the bottom of the floor dust and my hate scent Prada L'Homme at eye level?
Nah, the blue things of Alyssa Ashley have less to do with OUD - more with the fat load of incense and various incense sticks, almost sticky, a little bit musty, definitely a niche, yeah! And what a.
Weeks later a small perfume tasting (I call it that - coming from the wine world...). Of seven niche scents that would be blindly handed out, this most disturbed and polarized Alyssa Ashley OUD. And yet it was easily recognized again and again by laymen. Ha! If this is not an indication of successful handwriting...
I'm researching: Perfumer is a certain Luca Maffei - a young Italian. He has probably not yet created great mainstream fragrances - apparently he feels quite comfortable in the upscale niche. I order some samples of his creations, I am interested in his style.
Maffei, I read at Parfumo, has created some fragrances for Perris Monte Carlo, a noble blacksmith, including the "OUD IMPERIAL". The madman: Maffei has created his own Dupe with Alyssa Ashley OUD. Anyway, I only smell hair-fine differences between the two, in general it fits together like Düsseldorf and Altbier, but Maffeis version of Alyssa Ashley only costs a fraction. And those who take the trouble to read the comments on Perris Monte Carlo's "OUD IMPERIAL" will remember: the expensive original (is it the original at all or is Ashley the original?) also polarizes the community. Strike!
Conclusion: If you want to attract attention, if you want to polarize, if you want something different - you buy the blue Alyssa Ashleys "OUD". I've been throwing warriors on the net. Gladly - I buy everything on.
