Beautiful floral
Amyris Femme Extrait is the second fragrance from the house of Maison Francis Kurkdjian that I have tried. Though my expectations weren't high because of the scent profile of this fragrance, I had some expectations considering the status of this luxury house. The fact that Baccarat Rouge 540 was the first fragrance from MFK I had tried, my expectations were somewhat elevated for sure.

Amyris Femme Extrait opens with a sour yet light floral note. I get hints of iris and the sourness must be some kind of citrus. The composition is nice, yet boring, in my opinion. I do hope I'm not offending anyone, but I've never been a fan of florals and my expectations for a MFK fragrance are high.
The fragrance is quite ordinary, I cannot imagine many disliking it, which makes it even more uninteresting to me, but at the same time I image that it's one of its appeals. No toes will be stepped on with this one.

This fragrance reminds me a lot of how I remember Yves Saint Laurent Parisienne smelling like and even Mon Evidence by Yves Rocher. However, Mon Evidence is more delicious and unique for a fraction of the expense.

Something about Amyris Femme Extrait is quite aquatic and hints at a resemblance of an air refresher. On paper, the fragrance is actually more pleasant. It remains lighter and with hints of conference pear, sweet and fresh. On my skin, the fragrance becomes deeper and with a soapy undertone. This fragrance might be more suited for Spring. But alas, I won't be revisiting it, it just isn't for me.

Amyris Femme Extrait is, however, very beautifully presented in its glass bottle and light pink fluid, and the eau de parfum is even prettier!
I'm happy I received a sample of this fragrance with one of my orders, but florals, no matter how high end, will never have a chance with me, I guess.

My fragrance journey (blind comment number 3)
This review is created in the context of a blind test. The dear First has sent a package with 9 fragrances on the road, of which I may now write a blind comment to three.

The tube with the "number 3" smells like lemon from the outside. I spray some on my wrist and perceive increased citrus notes, possibly bergamot. But also a floral component competes in the prelude with the freshness.

Immediately I have to think of a fragrance: "My Burberry" which I used to wear very much. However, this was a little creamier and slightly sweeter in my memory.
Fitting to "My Burberry" my mental fragrance journey also starts in England. I see myself walking through a rose garden in a trench coat. It has recently rained and it smells fresh and flowery.
As my journey continues, I am in Italy by the sea. A light breeze caresses through my hair and carries the fresh sea air to my face. Flowers are now no longer here, but I smell herbaceous notes like sage. Also, the citrus freshness from the nearby lemon grove continues to accompany me

Unfortunately, my fragrance journey does not last too long, after about 6 hours, the whole fun is also already over. The sillage was just fine even for a very fresh fragrance.

For me an everyday / day fragrance for the warmer season & spring.

Thank you dear First for the many scent journeys you have sent me on with this walking letter :) Who is interested can also very happy to read through my other reviews of the fragrances that I was allowed to test blind :)

Very helpful Review 3  
Noble and beautiful but too flowery for me...
I have tested this fragrance for quite a long time now, because I was very unsure how I should describe or evaluate the fragrance...

The scent is really nice, actually super nice but somehow also very classic, for me too classic and definitely too flowery.

Strangely enough, the head notes don't get through at all, but only the heart notes, which are there immediately. Jasmine and Lily immediately play the leading roles, not sharp notes but very creamy and pleasant and perfectly balanced notes...Pretty fast the scent becomes slightly woody by the Amyris, which makes this scent more interesting than most floral scents. Lily and Jasmine are still the main protagonists, which makes this fragrance look too mature and almost a bit old-fashioned for me...

I really like the scent a lot but it just doesn't suit me. What kind of woman I have in mind when I smell the scent...: A secretary. She's between 40 and 50, beautiful and dressed in a very classic way... Amyris Femme is a great flower scent, great for the office. Beautiful, not at all pushy and just classic... For me, the fragrance does not fit my personality but it is still simply beautiful and noble ...

Durability on the skin is about 4 hours, Sillage weak to medium....
