Yes ? No ? Maybe!
Once again I get a scent of Maison Francis Kurkdjian under my nose and again it's one that has haunted me since the beginning of my perfume days. Since I have experienced really great scents with my two scents tested so far by MFK, called Oud and Grand Soir, I was hoping for a similar enthusiasm from my side. How often did I read "A Part of Me" in the fragrance consultations, how often did I see it in collections. There must be something about this fragrance that inspires others and that I might have missed so far. I couldn't help but organize the fragrance as a bottling and get a picture of this perfume for myself.
At the moment, my passion for testing is again - for me - taking on overflowing traits, which is why I had many different grades under my nose. That's positive in so far as, from a certain level on, you can break down the notes and chords which you like and which you don't like so much. Especially in the last few weeks I have also experienced some scents that gave me a shiver. So I could find out that dark vetivernotes appeal to me, the lighter ones often seem soapy. Furthermore, that rose in combination with woods leads to my known problems, but that the combination with resinous notes, amber or honey are much more compatible. Even with fresh scents I have no problems with neroli and green plants, as long as they are incorporated into a sweetish blend or covered with wood.
Now in APOM the orange blossom is very much in the foreground. Without anticipating everything, this note is definitely on my black list in its purity, as in this fragrance. An ingredient that beamed me right away the first time I sprayed it on and reminds me of the little refreshing scents from my grandmother's bathroom.
APOM is a true representative of pure orange blossom. Only APOM can be truly intense, clear and pure. After this rhyme I have to say that this soap that projects my skin is simply not mine. I fully acknowledge the quality of the perfume, as the scent does not have any frills, but focuses on the orange blossom. I definitely notice how the notes in the background attach themselves to the blossom. These fine woody notes and a gossamer sweetness seem to go right through and know how to please. However, they also remain far away, making the fragrance not more pleasant for me.
The Sillage was really striking on my skin just at the beginning and enveloped me with this intense flower composition. This is not what you expect from such fragrances and it surprised me a bit. As soon as this fades away the scent becomes like a second skin and lies down undisturbed. You can hear the scent from time to time during movements without it becoming disturbing. But I could hear this already with the other two MFKs. The durability is here also not negatively noticed and does its work well
This fragrance is not what I had hoped for, but it was interesting to see how pure and fine this orange blossom was transformed. I could already see the quality in the other two fragrances and I am always amazed. So now I can check off the next fragrance that has been buzzing around in my head for a long time.
But please test it yourself and be surprised.
