Well, what can I say about this one? I love amber and this fragrances other notes compliment it splendidly, pushing it to the forfront and adding a sweet wearability. By that I mean many of the other perfumes I've tried from this house are real occasion fragrances and not something you'd wear on a regular basis, this is the exception to the rule. Not sure about the 'reverse drydown' thing? although I've only tried in once I did notice that I instantly liked it and it required no time to settle on the skin before giving me enjoyable, heady waves of good vibes. This was a extra sample vial thrown in with the Achtung range along with Alpha and Coco blanc, I knew that alpha was a male and Coco a unisex beforehand so I'd just assumed this was a female fragrance. I was glad to discover this too was a unisex as Alpha is frankly awful. This however is brilliant...I'm no authority on amber scents or how close to realistic it is, all I know is it smells very good.
