The heritage of the bitter autumn raspberries
The perfume brand Amado from Saudi Arabia was completely unknown to me until recently. By chance I discovered six of them at Beauty Affair in Düsseldorf and had to get to the bottom of the label. Of course, the striking flacons in the noble smoked glass flatter the eyes, but a glance at Parfumo also showed that Amado is olfactorically very popular with a current average value of 7.9 points and 90 ratings.
Arabian Heritage made me the most curious because of its name, especially since, contrary to expectations, no oud but raspberry was used in the recipe. At first I think of the heritage of Tuscan Leather rather than Arabic, but then again the leather is missing. So it can be exciting ...
The raspberry in question also makes itself felt most strongly when sprayed on, accompanied by rose, a few currants and a mychen of cinnamon. What follows after a few minutes is incense in a discreet form plus unobtrusive woody notes and rather light patchouli. Although officially no leather is indicated, one thinks to perceive it somehow. Arabian Heritage is not a simple Tuscan Leather clone, but a fine soft eau de parfum with a fruity, oriental and smoky character.
In the base, the indicated notes amber, benzoin and musk do not come across as really recognizable and mix to an expected as well as suitable soft finish with the red aggregate stone fruit as core.
Normally I'd make a good bow about raspberry scents (Tom Ford's scent is also more than ok), but here she fits in her relatively unsweet nature ideally into the rather harsh environment and makes Arabian Heritage an exciting creation, which gives the wearer an absolutely extraordinary, but not overly detached aura. I think autumn and winter is the most interesting time.
