One of the favorites in my collection. Everytime I bring Meander to meet-ups it's a huge win and people end up ordering bottles. Beautiful creamy sandalwood with green touches, iris and incense. Melancholic, calm, with a bit of bracing freshness in the open. Truly a showcase of fragrance as an art.
Really, really beautiful scent, although my bottle is emptying quite quickly as it just doesn't last long on my skin, but while it does last....wow, I'm in heaven!
@@robes08 I had to revisit & update this comment, as I just got a new bottle of Meander & it lasts much longer than the bottle I bought when it was first released. Maybe they went back & fixed the issues people were having with it.
I like the lightness of this scent. When I tried it, I was expecting to be slapped in the face with something really strong but this was so soft and calming. Great stuff 👍
Another one I have a sample of 😁 I get everything you said, I also have Lost Alice, from what I smell imagine Lost Alice get stuck in the opening, a little more feminine, but more comforting IMO, I find Meander a little harsher, they go in very different ways when they hit the dry down, for me the winner was Lost Alice, I now have a bottle, need more time with Meander. The other two that grow on me are: Purpose and Royal Tobacco, those are the ones I'm going to get first. I think for most the new direction that Amouage is taking is difficult to grasp, Amouage is a beloved brand for a lot of people, change is always hard, but I think Mr. Salmon is doing an excellent job and his very careful and thorough in his decision making for the brand, I really like were Amouage is going. Excellent Samplin' thank you Marc!!!
Great one...I tried it in the summer and I couldn't even sense it but on a third time I sense all the magnificent that this scent is producing...Great review as always 😊😊
Cheers Marc,haven’t smelt anything after C.C.left the building 😮, I am not surprised as Amouage like the vast majority of houses have to go by way of the trends ,and the growth of the market ,plus the newer fragrance users have their own scent profile favorites that are sadly not what us older fragrance lovers would consider a complex game changer offering,so it’s a win for the young newbie with cash to burn and the fragrance house who can sit on their hands and all regurgitate this new genre for bigger profits and less interesting ingredients etc 😊, That said they are most probably really enjoyable scents that are here to stay for a generation wanting more of the same .✌️🙏👍
with newer amouages i wouldnt even buy a sample until i hear both you and ramsey's opinion lol. as im sure you know, hes not a big "fish man" fan haha. but you convinced me to check this out with your review
I have sampled most of the newer Amouage fragrance after Chong left, and none of them are bottle worthy imo. Good quality, but not worth that Amouage price! 😬
