About this deal

The camp that loves Sunshine with whole-hearted enthusiasm is best represented by “Musette” on The Perfume Posse. For her, Sunshine felt like “the brightest gold,” and she wrote with enthusiasm about how it was “a grounded, warm scent, with a core of burnished brightness.” Patty White was a bit more ambivalent in her review because the perfume had elements of “freshness,” which she isn’t generally keen on, but she ultimately liked Sunshine, too, because of its happy brightness. She wrote, in part: I have to say that even though I've been testing the fragrance for months, I didn't even have that association.

I had already started writing the review yesterday evening, to be more specific. Like probably everyone who writes a review I sprayed the fragrance and then started typing to really have the scent in front of my eyes again. Sunshine I've had for a while ie I would have said until this evening that was more than enough time to get to know it. The company was founded in Oman with a vision to create “The Gift of Kings” – fragrances for those who deserve nothing but the best. The House of Amouage produces perfumes, colognes, and other beauty products for women and men, often classified as luxurious oriental floral fragrances. Traditional Western ingredients are combined with spices from the Middle East such as ambergris, frankincense, or myrrh to produce a distinctive style of scents. First of all, Sunshine Woman is an outstandingly handcrafted composition, which first in the second cycle, then in longer, precisely calculated time intervals, always puts a new twist on the parquet. First harmlessly citric-mandelious, then currant-vanilla, then the tobacco crawls out, then the whole thing combines with jasmine, patchouli to an overall picture. I think reaction to Sunshine will be firmly split, and will probably depend on two things: your skin chemistry, and how you felt about the old Amouage style. You should try it for yourself to see and, hopefully, on your skin, it will be pleasantly pretty. There's one thing you should definitely consider: Sunshine is present. Really, every time I had Sunshine on, someone would talk to me. To be fair, you have to say positive throughout. But as soon as you put a sprayer on it, no matter where on the body, it is perceived. The alcoholic effect of the "lavender-orange-whatever-always-note" can be seen throughout. I write something like this in a distorted way, because I absolutely like lavender and somehow I could not understand that so many perfumes here smell or are said to smell lavender intensively. If I compare it with Caron's absolutely fantastic fragrance "Caron pour un Homme", one discovers a similarity, but this is more to do with vanilla. The vanilla of Sunshine gives the fragrance a slightly smoky (tonka bean?), synthetic but sweet-powdery note that remains constantly present. That's what I'm talking about now. Absolutely positive. The longer I tested the fragrance, the better I found the composition, because you always smell a slightly different side of the fragrance. Many also speak of an alcoholic or tipsy orange. I myself perceive a fresh, citrus-like note that is somewhat menthol-alcoholic. I guess it's the bergamot and juniper berry that's supposed to be in there. But I have to confess that I don't smell anything at all (anyone who knows gin or drinks juniper might be able to confirm that). In any case, this note makes the fragrance a little more versatile. But with all my versatility, I must confess: Classic fragrance? Nothing. I get the impression there are two stages. First a warm-up with a huge load of sweetness, vanilla icing sugar poured over one and then simply after about 10-15 minutes a never-ending exposure of sweet alcohol and sugared orange slices - very strongly sugared orange slices. You notice I struggle with myself to describe the scent. He clearly reads worse than he is. But it might make it clear why it took me an incredibly long time to like it.Sunshine is really a fragrance that has needed something but now belongs to my absolute favorites :) and I imagine him on late summer evenings beautiful :)!

He starts herbaceous with lavender and immortelle. Lavender is indeed there on the Pityusen definitely not ostensibly cultivated, but rather in Provence, but even there it can smell herbaceous-fresh, one goes a little further away from the particularly touristy regions and travels inland. We did that very often when we had rented a quad bike and also there the obligatory suntan lotion could not be missing of course. Later the vanilla also comes along, VERY much later (1-2 hours?!). It'll be nicer, but not really nice. Because of the lavender notes, which I still detect later on, I also find it wonderfully suitable for both sexes. On Mr. Polly, however, I like this holiday flatterer better than on me. I myself don't like to have immortelle directly in my nose, but prefer to sniff the strawflower a bit from a distance. In the base, Sunshine Man finally becomes the perfect sunscreen and holiday scent with vanilla, tonka and woody notes. The tonka bean is not too dominant, which I like extremely well. It goes on all sparkly and fresh. Yeah, there, I said it, the part that I want to hate. I haaaaaate fresh perfumes. But I don’t really hate this exactly. I sorta hate it, but it is liquid gold and sunny and bright and, yikes! still fresh’ish. […]Honour Woman is a sweet, warm, and inviting fragrance. Gardenia, tuberose, jasmine, lily-of-the-valley, and carnation are all indolic flowers in the middle note. amber, which is known for its rich amber color and its vanilla sweetness, can evoke spiritual feelings or a pure connection with mother earth.

As with all the fragrances from Amouage that I know, the scent develops continuously by presenting the scent actors one after the other - like in a play - and they have their "special moment" in the process. Even after that the fragrance does not remain a silent treader. The lavender of the top note announces the herbal heart note that follows. After about an hour I can perceive the Muscat Sage as a slightly soapy note - and in this development it often reminds me of the Vintage Kouros (but of course only the Muscat Sage, not all the rest). Unfortunately, I could not yet perceive juniper berry from the mentioned fragrance pyramid. Sunshine fits, as a name well somehow the fragrance makes me happy and I schnupperTE ;( like to her, even if I have worn another fragrance.Memoir was awarded a 4.8/5 star score from 5 addicts, and we chose that word because each one raved about this scent. Take a look at the snapshot below to see for yourself: Amouage was founded in 1983 by the ladies and gentlemen of Oman Perfumery LLC. The brand is a branch of the Omani SABCO Group, a national mineral water company. Where is Amouage made? You’ll discover an extraordinarily feminine yet decidedly potent scent with Amouage Honour Woman. A resolute blend wrapped in stirring layers of amber, incense, and opoponax that will leave you feeling the best version of yourself anytime. With a collection of over 50 scents, the brand has a total of 12 boutiques and is sold in more than 1k stores around the world. It is evening and my husband has invited me to dinner. The rascal always does that when he has done something wrong and has to bend it straight again. Hmm... yes, I like to eat well. And he knows it
