The Panouge Datura Amaretti Eau de Parfum for women features a floral-chypre fragrance. Initially intended to highlight a biscuit accord, the composition evolved unexpectedly, as the notes came together to create a powerful and unpredictable aroma. The desired biscuit essence took a back seat, giving way to the dominant and contrasting accords of datura and almond. The Datura Amaretti fragrance can be compared to a femme fatale of the Baroque era. She is sunny, light, and playful, yet simultaneously mad, mysterious, and "poisonous." This contradiction results in a scent that feels velvety yet scandalous, mysterious yet bright.
The fragrance opens with sparkling notes of mandarin and cherry, providing a flawless introduction to the bold pyramid of Datura Amaretti. At its heart, creamy, slightly gourmand ylang-ylang accords are present, accompanied by datura flower notes. These notes are sunny, open, and warm, yet also narcotic, unsettling, and addictive. The perfume composition boasts a lasting trail, thanks to a vivid base woven from resinous cedarwood, unsettling almond, and sensual, seductive musk.
This perfume is incredibly long-lasting with a very strong scent. It fills the entire space and lingers in the air for a couple of hours after application.
I have been using this perfume water for two months, spraying it five times, and I can barely even hear it on myself. The scent is weak, delicate, floral, and not long-lasting, nor does it leave a trail.
A vibrant scent of white flowers, I suspect it to be datura, which is also known as the flower of intoxication. Afterwards, gourmet and sweet notes become apparent. It is very unique and unlike anything else. I really liked it.
The packaging is nice, well-sealed, and there was no air leakage. However, when I first pressed it, there was some spraying. The scent is pleasant, slightly sweet, but not overwhelming. In my opinion, the initial notes are very noticeable lily of the valley fragrance, followed by a light musky scent. It's not a bad option for winter. The perfume doesn't last long and doesn't leave a lingering trail.
