Today I bring you Sarawen's perfume in Ambrosia.
Sarawen describes 'Ambrosia' as: A scrumptious blend of tasty treats over a base of amber with a touch of patchouli. Delight!
I'm normally not a patchouli girl, but with the notes of chocolate, honey, and vanilla cream, how could I resist? I'm a foodie.
On my skin, 'Ambrosia' smells like HOLY CRAP HEAVEN IN A BOTTLE. For me at least.
The chocolate is so pronounced and I love it. It is deep, dark chocolate, not overly sweet. The vanilla is there, but is subtle, and the honey gives it a nice lift. The patchouili at the base is not too heavy, it lets the food notes come through.
This is a date perfume. Because even though most of us like to smell sexy, or like whatever fragrance WE love on a date -- guys like food. I once heard to put on pure vanilla extract as a fragrance. I did it before a date, and the guy went crazy like 'oh my what is that?'.
It is sad, but true.
Anyways, enough of the rambling. I really think this is a decadent fragrance.

Thanks for the review, I have some Sarawen perfumes I bought a while back and kind of forgot about (I have so many perfumes that tends to happen...), but I hauled them out again recently and I love them and want more! This one was kind of hovering on and off my list because of the patchouli - not a fan of it, really - but your description makes it sound like it would be right up my alley. It's definitely on my list now. :-)
