Alkemia – Autumn Alchemy 2018


{undercover review of own purchase}⁠

the passing of the seasons is always a surreal display of natural beauty beyond human comprehension, but autumn's transition has to be the most spectacular of them all.⁠
in the blink of an eye, green leaves turn into a kaleidoscope of red, orange and gold.⁠
even as the temperature starts to drop, the landscape is transformed by the rich hues of fire and flame; both the canopy and ground alike take on the colours of glowing embers in a breathtaking spectacle.⁠
one might say it's almost like magic... or alchemy.⁠
a fitting backdrop for today's scent of the day «Autumn Alchemy» by Alkemia Perfumes. they've made different variations over the years and this is their limited-edition 2018 version.⁠
from the first sniffs, «Autumn Alchemy 2018» enchants its wearer with a potent combination of sugar, spice and everything nice about autumn.⁠
true to its listed notes, this is a cosy and comforting blend of sweet maple and rich sugar pumpkin, with a base of soft amber and a smattering of spices evocative of a warm cup of pumpkin chai on a cool fall morning.⁠
this is another of those scents that's so well-blended, the whole ends up being so much more than the sum of its parts.⁠
i couldn't stop huffing my wrist to enjoy this when i first tested it, and i know that this one is going to end up being my scent of the day many more times to come.⁠
«Autumn Alchemy 2018» is the essence of the season distilled into a scent - to me, this perfectly captures the magic of fall, while still being wearable all year round.⁠
📝 official notes: "a blend of maple candyfloss, spiced amber, sugar pumpkin, ripe fig, and brown sugar."⁠
