Persolaise - Love At First Scent - perfume reviews - Episode 32 - feat. Armani Prive, Acqua Di Parma

Episode 32 of Love At First Scent

This was a YouTube Live broadcast streamed on Sunday 19th May 2019. Unscripted. Unedited. Unrehearsed.

[Technology gremlins again! Unfortunately, there was a problem with uploading this video permanently to YouTube which seems to have resulted in the loss of all the 'live' chat from viewers. Very sorry about that, but I don't seem to be able to do anything about it. I suppose there's a chance the live chat option might pop up again at some point.]

In this episode, I covered:

- Musc Shamal from Armani Prive (at the start of the video)
- L'Homme Ideal Cool from Guerlain (at the 15:00 minute mark)
- Blu Mediterraneo Cipresso Di Toscana from Acqua Di Parma (at the 31:00 minute mark)
- Night Train from Wide Society (at the 50:30 minute mark)
- Up In The Air from Wide Society (at the 57:00 minute mark)

and the classic choice was

- Hiris from Hermes (at the 41:30 minute mark)

Here's the blotter update...

- The Armani has become significantly sweeter, but it remains interesting; the contrast between hot and cold is going strong. I sprayed some on skin and, as expected, the seams between the two elements became much harder to discern.
- L'Homme Ideal Cool has turned into a juvenile, pretty uninvolving rendition of the original L'Homme Ideal idea.
- The Acqua Di Parma is now more dry-powdery (almost chalky, rather than baby powder talc-like) and still very elegant and refined.
- Night Train is still firmly in 80s chypre territory, perhaps closer to the likes of Aromatics Elixir than it was at the start. Classy stuff.
- Up In The Air has lost some of its more intriguing elements (that boozy danger!) but the saffron-leathery drydown is appealing.
- Hiris has gone very quiet, but it absolutely hasn't disappeared. Serenely meditative.

Thanks again for watching!
