I'm really enjoying it. Its VERY masculine and has a slightly oddball resinous fruity tinge running through what is predominantly a HQ smokey chypre base. Its a little confusing at first but its very enjoyable to wear and in a different league of interest compared to the (IMHO) massively dissapointing Honour Man.
It puts me in a similar mindset of Montale Dark Aoud where its quite ballsy and has a little sinister streak about it. Good stuff.
My 3 lovely sisters surprised me on my birthday with:
To say I'm happy is a bit of an understatement!!

a favourite of mine too. cannot say the same about their latest releases, 'white, red and black' and 'amazingreen', disappointing! i think they are attempting to break the mainstream market and it's just sad but i guess it makes sense from a business point of view. talking about amazingreen, he 'flint/gunpowder accord' and smoke and vetiver are non existent, the only thing i'm smelling is the so called 'jungle leaves' and 'palm tree' as the first thought that popped to my mind when smelling it was 'damn, amazonian rainforest!!'.

I know it's summer, but hey, I found it at a good deal so:
It's the new packaging but the content smells like I remember it and it's also long-lasting on my skin.

Sweet Redemption. My first Kilian. I'm closing a chapter in my life, and the narrative for this one is "the end," so it was just the push off the ledge that I needed! And the packaging! I'm such a sucker for that!

... welcome home my Amouage Interlude Man...
An attractive smoky sweet leather scent. It is incens-y, boozy. Not in-your-face like some other Amouage scent, Interlude is quite dreamy. If you find OpusIV or IV is too much, then Interlude is the right answer. With one spray, Interlude can be your signature summer scent.
