Amir Slama Matcha Phebo for men

Aroma of bush with pear, pleasant but nothing special, however it is different from everything else I have. Very low longevity, but the 200ml bottle allows you to apply generously, for the low price it is an option.
aroma 6.0 / 10
longevity 5.0 / 10

For those who like NATURE: this is a cologne full of green notes and green tea (matcha) with a lily background, which gives a slight sweetness - but nothing nauseating, because the focus is on the fresh green notes, added to the slight bitterness of green tea. You can also feel a little bit of pear on the top notes. Over time, the scents evolve to a lily background with a slightly green touch. Very elegant.
I consider it mostly masculine, but it is shareable thanks to the lily. As a cologne, it needs to be reapplied several times during the day. If applied to clothing, it lasts longer.

Para quem gosta de NATUREZA: esta é uma colônia repleta de notas verdes e chá verde (matcha) com fundo de lírio, que dá uma ligeira doçura - mas nada nauseante, porque o foco são as notas verdes frescas, adicionadas ao ligeiro amargor do chá verde. Você também pode sentir uma pequena nota de pêra nas notas de topo. Com o passar do tempo, o perfume evolui para um lírio de fundo com o toque levemente verde. Bem elegante.
  Eu a considero principalmente masculina, mas é compartilhável graças ao lírio. Como uma colônia, ela precisa ser reaplicada várias vezes ao dia. Se aplicada à roupa, dura mais tempo.

From the Amir Slama Collection, it's the tamest, but it has the same D.N.A. as the others, and right from the start, it has a heavy spice note combined with roots and a natural feel to the extreme.

Right from the bottle, the proposal, the marketing behind it warns that it will be very volatile, after all, what can you expect from teas?! They are always there to soothe, soften and then go away, and this one is no different, so I bought a 260 ml bottle plus a bunch of soaps of the same fragrance to prolong the scent that encourages immediate relaxation.

Juicy at the start, it goes back and forth between the heavy spicy sensation of its central core (D.N.A.) and the fresh fruity note, I like that here. For me it's zero flowers and a lot of greenish sensations of teas, grasses, inputs, sap and anything else that reminds me of the color green in this life! I like to use it to make generous clouds; a point for the spray bottle, which is great and I've never found anything like it in practice.

The smell of Matcha is very natural and starts off a little cold and warms up as the hours go by. It earns some nice compliments and doesn't offend anyone within an arm's length of the user.

An aldehydic foliage.

A tropical interpretation of this tea, which until then had reminded me of coziness in cold weather. Here we have an explosion of leaves, a little bitter, with a glow of aldehydes in small, dewy doses.

It's like an iced tea with almost no sugar. The pear starts the fragrance with a soft juiciness, but the cologne follows an increasingly bitter and leafy path, even with the addition of flowers.

As a cologne, the base is soft and serves only to round off, not so substantial as to promote prolonged duration.

I use it to spend the day on myself, leaving the bottle within reach to replenish. It's a ritual that calls for several reapplications.

First impressions (buying a decant):

Immediately on spraying I really feel the notes of lily and pear (very good here, shame it only lasts a short while), with citrus notes. As these notes subside, you start to feel more of the green and tea notes. For a fragrance called "matcha" I was surprised at how the tea note seemed less prominent. In the drydown I feel more musk and a little amber. Here on Fragrantica this cologne is listed as masculine, but searching on other sites it appears as unisex (on the "Parfumo" site, a kind of Fragrantica only in English, the two Amir Slama colognes appear listed as unisex). Because of the pear and lily in evidence, I thought it opened very floral and fruity, leaning more towards the feminine.

The only things I didn't like so much: 1) the floral tone of the lily, although not strong, is very pungent and lasts throughout the duration of the fragrance. I can't put it into words, but it's a characteristic I feel in certain white florals that even stings my nose a little, and I feel a bit of that in this fragrance; 2) the tea note isn't as evident as I'd like it to be. Apart from these two items, it's a great unisex cologne, it surprised me. It's a light cologne with a very noticeable floral and fruity side.
