Hiya Posse Peeps, Amouage Bracken Lady was such a meh once I first tried it. I feel it was at a Libertine season launch. So unusual that I additionally had purchased a 10ml decant of it from my good friend Ruth. So it had sat, forlorn and unloved in one in every of my decant packing containers simply quietly evaporating. Once I refound it there was about 1/4 gone. Possibly I’d spritzed it a few times however I don’t bear in mind. So over the previous few weeks I’ve been LOVING it like loopy. Severely, swoon worthy. Pleasant weirdness that’s wearable. Then I found it was DCd in Australia and getting tougher to seek out across the worlds low cost websites. PANIC BUY ensued. It’s nonetheless out there on the Amouage web site.

That opening smoky greenery is bloody sensational. Thoughts boggling. It catches my consideration and retains it and it lasts a lot longer than most opens.
As we hit the center that smoky leather-based is so cleverly surrounded by flowers and soothing chamomile. The bracken doesn’t let go although. It retains pumping its wonderful bitter darkness however much less intense and has this wonderful fade out and in. That inexperienced wafts by Bracken Lady like darkish smoke in a fairy story.
Surprisingly, the patchouli has been there all alongside however biding its time to make itself recognized. As we attain in direction of dry down the patchouli (I feel it’s the patchouli anyway, perhaps it’s interacting with different notes) is earthy however clear and easy, like new sheets on the mattress. I’m shocked there aren’t some balsams and resins talked about within the word checklist, the dry down undoubtedly has the texture of them. Possibly even a touch of vanilla by that patchouli leather-based smoke? The dry down stays attention-grabbing until the final gasp.
So, I rave as a result of Bracken Lady is bloody great things. Completely unisex, longevity is tremendous wonderful, projection very good for fairly a very long time. Fortunately bizarre assed fragrance. You would possibly wish to attempt it earlier than it’s gone without end.
Sound good?
