Amandus: New From Manos Gerakinis at Fragrantica

“If you’ve smelled the fragrances of Manos Gerakinis, you will know that one of the brand’s strengths lies in creating sophisticated fragrances. Another highlight of the brand, though, is the gorgeous gourmands that Manos Gerakinis works with his perfumers to create. Without exception, these are gourmands that indulge in a luxurious excess but without becoming stodgy or deflated.

The latest release from the brand, Amandus, showcases almond, centering it in the spotlight, but it manages to do so in a way that is deceptively sophisticated. This is no ordinary gourmand, nor does it feel part of the wave of trendiness that gourmand is riding at the moment. Instead, it feels like a gourmand of elegance, a gourmand perhaps from some point in the past, but nevertheless a gourmand that is given the truly inimitable Manos Gerakinis spin.”
