‘The flame of Ama casts a soft amber glow that sustains through difficult times. It is a warm golden sanctuary, a haven from the wolves at the door, a scent-temple of tenderness. A fragrant milk of human kindness, Ama is pure heart essence, an intoxicating liqueur of creativity and gentleness. Silken Smooth Comfort.’ – Teone Reinthal
A floral fragrance that packs a punch.
At first I thought this would go animalic. I get a civet-esque hint in the opening, perhaps the acidity from the ginger. Sweet, but acidic and rather loud.
A few minutes later, it becomes greener on me. Slightly grassy/mossy, but very floral. A hint of the tropical-sweetness that you expect from ylang-ylang and frangipani, but understated.
As with others from TRNP, this one instantly reminds me of Hiram Green’s work, despite not having a one of one match for the scent.
