Sunshine, Cocktails and Suncreme in a Bottle
Preface:
Some time ago I had already mentioned in a statement that I like Sunshine Man very much after I received a small sample from our user Greenie07 with another order. Many thanks again for that! Now my better half wanted to have a list from me, which fragrances I would like to have the most, on which Sunshine Man was ranked first so shortly before summer. Last sunday the time had come and I held a heavy cardboard box, wrapped in wrapping paper in my hand. After I freed it from its wrapping, this light blue wrapping shone a big printed sun on me. Very high quality workmanship and the packaging already has the usual opulent Amouage quality with its print, which gives this coastal feeling. For me unfortunately very difficult to describe. Contrary to the other Amouage's this box is however differently conceived and is opened lying down from above, which I found somewhat unfortunate, since I like to see you standing on your pedestal in the glass cabinet, which is not possible for me with this kind. But enough of the gibberish and let's get to the scent.
Description of fragrance:
This perfume is very untypical for Amouage. It begins very sweet-alcoholic, reminiscent of cocktails, which is probably due to the orange brandy note. No frankincense, no oud, no strong spices that you would normally expect from the perfumery in Oman. But on the other hand, it is as strong as ever and radiates an aura that can be smelled at a distance of 2-3 meters with a light gust of wind. I have ice cream (Ed v. Schleck?) and sunscreen in front of my eyes as soon as I have the scent in my nose. I can't make out a big fragrance development in Sunshine Man, but he radiates this creamy cocktail/ice note for 6-8 hours, until I was surprised that he couldn't hide his origin towards the end and still becomes slightly spicy. But that's just a short snapshot before it disappears. Sunshine Man is also more likely to be worn in a casual casual outfit instead of a suit. Who likes Herod, or is not averse to sweet perfumes in general, will surely also like the SM.
Yesterday I then dared to experiment and let my girlfriend test the scent on her before we drove into town, as I didn't have a moment where I thought it would be misplaced on a woman. With the statements of some ladies, I had enough arguments that she has no doubts anymore ;-) And we were not disappointed. I first noticed how brute the scent is. The charisma is really enormous. Apparently she not only really likes it on me, but has now also discovered it for herself, where she normally doesn't touch men's fragrances. So I have to put my bottle in a safe place first. :-)
Finally, I would like to thank Greenie07 and her for adding the bottle to my collection. Because of its sweetness (and its price...) it's certainly not something for every day, but it deserves its place.
I'm gonna go have another cocktail on my skin. Cheers and enjoy the summer!
