my mum loves Amour, I got her it for Christmas

in Tenerife I found Jungle Elephant so sprayed it, on the other arm I tested Shalimar edt, I think they smell similar and I don’t like either of them.

and coming home from Tenerife, at the airport I came across 05:40pm in madgascar, I didn’t have chance to spray it on skin as my mum was shifting me through the duty free but I smelled the bottle and was blown away. this is THE perfect summer scent it actually smells of humidity and what I’d guess as exotic flowers.

but Jungle Elephant and Madagascar aren’t available in the UK as far as I know :/

Glad you love it! Do try the other 2, they're different.

So I've FINALLY tried this on my skin today. It has a good bit more depth on the skin than on paper. The first 20-30 minutes scared me, as it was this weird sweet floral smelling thing, but now that that has calmed, I really love it. I will certainly be buying a bottle when I can, and hopefully trying Holi and Le Parfum soon.

I have tried every new thing Kenzo has come up with, but nothing–I repeat, nothing–beats the original “Flower” fragrance of poppies. That stuff just transports me into another world.

It is very comforting, and the bottle is perfect. I guess it does matter to me what's in it, because the Amour Indian Holi bottle is even better & yet I did not like the juice at all.

God, the bottle is so beautiful it ALMOST wouldn't matter what was in it (the tester I tried at sephora was a milky smooth ceramic blob, very modern, very sleek. Oh why can't all perfumes have such nifty bottles?) Anyway, as anti-sweet stuff as I am, still I found myself liking it. I guess it's the “rice steam” thing which is just such a lovely idea in itself, and the delicate rice-puddingishness it added to the very very soft vanilla milk scent kind of got to me. I'd love to wear this when I'm sick in bed with a cold or something. Comforting and so soft and yummy. Not at all sticky or loud. Very nice.

Oh, if you get lost at Aedes, you can give the GC to me, LOL…

And hope you will enjoy the Kenzo Amour. That is a great bottle.

I didn't find the Fleur du Male, but there is (unfortunately) a Bloomies across the street from my work, so will have to go there and sniff it out.

I'm wishing I had put the Armani code on the other wrist–I found it attractive when it first came out but not compelling enough to buy or even seek out a sample. The similarity only occurred to me deep into the drydown, as I kept getting caught off-guard thinking “now what smells familiar about that?”

I just ordered the Kenzoamour from a discouter–my first FB purchase in a really long time. The discount helped a lot–I have a gift certificate to Aedes and have been dithering over what to do with it, but $30 for the kenzo seemed less intimidating to deal with than the upmarket juice that Aedes sells.

Always glad to help others procrastinate — it is my own specialty as well

I find the Amour to be much more of a comfort scent than Armani Code — and wouldn't have thought them similar, but now will have to try them together. What did you think of Fleur du Male, or did you even find it? I had thought it was still exclusive to Bloomies.
