Amarige D'amour Perfume
The Amarige D'amour Perfume
is a wonderful fragrance. It has a formal feel which limits
me to wearing it at night and for special occasions. This
is too bad, but I would feel uncomfortable using this as a
knock around fragrance. It simply goes better with evening
gowns than night gowns, better with black silk than blue jeans.
For this reason and because it is expensive, I rarely have
Amarige D'amour Perfume on my own table. The Amarige D'amour Perfume is a thick, multi-layered
perfume that is perfect for September through May. I would
highly recommend it for those months, and I wear it (almost)
every day. It's a little spicy and a little exotic, but still
has a sweet, romantic edge. .Despite the efforts we go to
when picking perfume and worrying about what will attract
a man, it seems as if most men don't notice whether you're
wearing the K-Mart $2 perfume or the Saks Fifth Avenue $200
perfume. the is different - people notice it and like it!
I have been asked during several first dates what perfume
it is that I'm wearing. That doesn't happen with any other
perfume I wear.
The Amarige D'amour Perfume
comes in a lovely and classic perfume bottle topped by a frosted
capper that is reminiscent of a candle flame in the wind.
It's packaged in a vibrant (and holiday-festive) red box that
makes it great as a present. The only downside (and this is
actually a good thing, but just a warning!) is that a little
goes a loooong way. You don't need several sprays on each
wrist the way you do with other watered-down fragrances; just
a little spritz and you'll smell fabulous all day! Amarige D'amour Perfume
has a nice balance of all these elements. When it first sprays
on, it is mostly fruity.
There
is an aroma of mandarin or mimosa oranges, white pepper, and
violets in the Amarige D'amour Perfume. I like this violet aroma which is
much more subtle than the average rose scent that so many
perfumes seem to have. These first scents last a surprisingly
long time. Usually within 20 minutes or so I'm losing those
first scents to the heart of the perfume. While I lose the
peppercorn fairly quickly, the mandarin and violet stay about
30 to 40 minutes. Those first aromas eventually fade into
jasmine, orange blossom, melon, plum, apricot and wisteria.
The sweet fruit here keeps the floral element from being overpowering.
The background scents in the Amarige D'amour Perfume are sandalwood, cedarwood
and iris. I really like the way sandalwood brings depth to
floral scents. It is fast becoming my favorite wood tone.
The cedar is a nice element, too. The iris adds a nice balance.
