Lovely unisex intersection of fresh, sweet, powdery, resinous--well done jack of all trades
Happyland Amberland is one of my favorite perfumes from this Ohio-based independent house of many hits. Its dominant orange blossom note is rounded by citruses, resins, sandalwood, vanilla, and patchouli, which is more or less the full list, the result being a great mix of sharp, sweet, citrus, hearty, resinous, and just a wee bit spicy. It’s refreshing yet bold, something that wakes me up in the morning and feels safe enough while still being noticeable and provocative.
Like the rest of the Happyland catalogue, the pricing on Amberland is very reasonable, at $55/42 for 50/30ml, and it performs very well, maybe not the very best of the house (I might get the best performance out of Se7en, myself), but outstanding, regardless of price.
And, like several other Happyland releases, Amberland is quite versatile, bold while still feeling year-round appropriate, comforting yet invigorating and provocative, a sort of unisex modern niche signature scent that somehow still demonstrates an awareness of the classics. Se7en remains my favorite from the house but together with Happyland Signature, Amberland is a close second.
It’s an excellent release and one I’d recommend that everyone try.
