My new Amouage favourite
I've owned or sampled lots of Amouage fragrances but Purpose is my favourite so far. I'm perplexed why it doesn't have any reviews on here. And dumbfounded by its relatively low rating on FragrantIca. It's a stunner and quite unlike any other fragrance I've smelt. The top is a fresh spicy pepper and supposedly frankincense but not the usual Amouage heavy incense DNA. It's there, but subtle. In the heart, I definitely get a soft Vetiver evolving into a woody base. There's an intriguing almost cumin note that apparently is the pimento berry that lingers and gives it a wonderful "biological" smell (can't describe it any other way) that moves beyond fragrance and makes it feel like it's your own body creating the smell. It projects well and longevity is great (a friend could smell it the next day on her dog after I cuddled the puppy!)
Thanks as always to the wonderful team at Libertine in New Farm Brisbane.
