Episode 30 (Scene 6) of Love At First Scent
This was a KZbin Live broadcast streamed on Monday 15th April 2019. Unscripted. Unedited. Unrehearsed.

This episode focused on Portrayal Woman and Portrayal Man from Amouage.

The blotter update:
- Woman is an irresistible jasmine delight, with just the right measure of creaminess from the tuberose and the musks. Much more accessible and instantly endearing than most Amouages.
- Man has moved firmly to its base of cade, musks and vetivert, the former evoking the leather notes of the likes of Antaeus, but in a less showy way. A thoroughly successful 80s homage.

This scent is everything🤩 I cannot live without it

[@Persolaise]

It’s wonderful when you find a scent you love. Thanks for watching.

I like the 1920s reference with the cigarettes that were smoked back then and contrasting that with what women were expected to do ie. be nice virginal white flowers through which the smoky resinous/dirty tones are trying to break through. Connects beautifully to 1980s with Madonna basically saying to her Papa that she’s still his baby. The bottle having so many colors is very fitting too. I freaking love Portrayal woman and it’s right up there for me with Guerlain Angelique noir as the top 2 fragrances I’d pack if that’s all I could have.

[@Persolaise]

Praise indeed! Thanks very much for watching.

[@Frankhanzen]

Thanks for great introduction to the new Amouages. Imo you are the best source of fragrance related knowledge for sure.

[@Persolaise]

That's so kind, Frank, thank you. And thanks for watching.

The packaging represents a wormhole. Time travel back to the 1920s.

[@Persolaise]

Bongani If only we could do that 😊Just for a few minutes. Thanks very much for watching.

[@GoodDaySir]

First time I’ve seen your channel, you are an entertaining and knowledgeable reviewer. Looking forward to more. Thanks.

[@Persolaise]

What a kind comment to write, thank you so much! I hope you enjoy the other videos.

[@taffyj531]

Oh my gosh, I loved this Scene, despite the KZbin quirks. (Or maybe the quirks just added to the fun and the naturalness.) The chat replay was entertaining too; you make the viewers feel like we're at a warm, welcoming gathering in your home. Now I want to run out and purchase these new Amouages!

[@Persolaise]

What a wonderful comment, thank you. And I do genuinely feel like I'm 'hanging out' with a global group of friendly (and highly knowledgeable!) perfume buddies. If you try the Amouages, please let me know what you think of them.

Hello Dariush, Super great introduction of new Amouage fragrances.thanks for the share, wish you all the best bro.cheers

[@Persolaise]

Thanks very much indeed. And all the best to you too.

[@litespeed65]

The Violet Leaf is a big part of the opening with the Cade oil blooming after 1/2 hour or so. More complex than the 3 listed notes would suggest.

[@Persolaise]

Thanks for that, and for watching 😊

[@ralphfurley123]

[@Persolaise]

Welcome aboard! And thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. Please do let me know what you make of the Amouage if you get to try it.

[@fromtoptobottomp]

When you were referencing eighties masculines were you thinking of Dior Jules by any chance?

[@Persolaise]

Michael M Actually, no, at that moment, I wasn’t, but that’s certainly a relevant one to bring up. The Amouage doesn’t have the fougere structure of Jules, though. It is much closer to a vanillic wood like Heritage.

[@chodoris]

It smells like when jadore is smoking

[@Persolaise]

Thanks very much for watching.
