Voyage 2019
by Hiram Green
Voyage 2019 by Hiram Green is a deeply atmospheric, amber-floral scent with a warm, honeyed foundation that evokes vintage elegance. The opening is strong and slightly spiced—some note a citrus burst, others detect honeycomb or soft cinnamon—but it quickly evolves into a seductive blend of lush floral notes, creamy vanilla, and rich amber. The lotus gives a delicate oriental flow, but isn’t watery or overly floral; it integrates seamlessly into the broader amber-vanilla-sweet accord. The drydown reveals a quietly opulent, slightly powdery vanilla that lingers with a comforting warmth, reminiscent of Shalimar but softer, quieter, and more restrained. It feels more like an old-world perfume shop—incense, wooden carvings, vintage fabrics—than a modern fragrance.
Pros
- +its notably long lasting and well-blended construction
- +the scent is elegant, creamy, and evokes a retro, vintage opulence
- +it works beautifully as a subtle, evening or winter wear fragrance
Cons
- −the amber base is very prominent and may feel overwhelming for some
- −it lacks strong citrus or bright floral notes, making it less suitable for spring or daytime wear
- −the drydown is very vanilla-heavy, which may not appeal to those who dislike sweet or creamy bases
