SOTD - Reflection 45 Man by Amouage

YES!! I love this stuff. I thought I loved the OG, but this is one of my all-time favorites. The weather is finally lousy here in the desert and it's a perfect day for 45.

This is the extrait version of the OG and actually has a 45% oil concentration. I understand that Amouage also lets it mature for four months. It's a very clean, floral, gentlemanly frag and it's denser, darker, and more substantial than the OG.

The opening on this is lavender and neroli, but with some heft. It has a slight gin-like vibe too and an aromatic, herbs note that the OG lacks. The iris (root) is present in the mid and gives the frag a really nice floral note. The base has frankincense (olibanum), myrrh, and opoponax which I understand gives it a smoky, and masculine feel that makes its quality unmistakable.

It sits closer to the skin than the OG but it's there for MUCH longer than you realize. After about 6 hours, somebody may say, "You smell really nice. What IS that?" Amouage quality strikes again.

I love this stuff and I'll always have it in my collection. Along with Amouage Interlude 53, this is a solid:
