    This was my most expensive blind buy ever.
    Someone was selling an unopened flacon of this rare vintage perfume in the original box on Finnish online market and, because I was feeling adventurous, I decided to buy it although I was low on money and the price was ridiculously high and I had to travel by train to a small village just to pick up the flacon from the seller. But… the idea of an unopened bottle of a vintage perfume, that was discontinued half a century ago, was so intriguing that I just had to do it even if it meant that I couldn’t afford to eat anything else than oat porridge for a few weeks.
    The opening of A’Suma feels like distant fireworks over the dark night sky. There’s similarity with L’Heure Bleue – same kind of comforting melancholy and vintage beauty. Both of them are mysterious night scents to wear with heartache and silk.
    A’Suma is rich, complex and poetic leather oriental. Dark and peculiar. Lavender and heliotrope are the main stars in it. They are accompanied with incense, patchouli, oakmoss and civet. Mint and camphor add to the fragrance’s unique and peculiar character and vanilla is there to make everything smoother and less intimidating. Sometimes the scent is almost
    gourmand-esque and there’s something that reminds me of chocolate.
    I’m glad I have this treasure on my shelf.

    Fragrance Review For A’Suma By Coty
    Top Notes: Bergamot Mint Camphor
    Middle Notes: Tuberose Lavender Heliotrope Incense
    Base Notes: Sandalwood Oak Moss Leather Patchouli Vanilla Tonka Civet Ambergris
    A’Suma is an exotic floral Oriental perfume. It’s reminiscent of such purple and blue floral frags like L’Heure Bleue and Jaipur. The Oriental nature of this fragrance comes from the camphor and incense not to mention the patchouli. It’s aromatic and smoky. The civet and musky accords are also quite strong, very unisex and I’m reminded of Passion by Elizabeth Taylor. This was first released in 1934 and has long been discontinued. An older friend of mine in London has a bottle of the vintage original and I was blown away. It turned to powder and had lost the incense but it clearly reminded me of perfumes with smoky accords and that L’Heure Bleue thing going on. Very elegant, classy, and a tad tropical and aquatic. There is an ambergris note that really stands out and smells as animalic as the civet. This is very hard to wear and I don’t see how it’s possible it could work in today’s world but it was very magical. It smells like Ursula from the Little Mermaid, a witchy purple octopus smell. The incense, the lavender, heliotrope, the patchouli, the leather, all of it gives it a kind of strong villainous witch like nature. Not quite Poison not quite Magie Noire, something oddly in between. It’s floral and feminine but with an evil bite. Gorgeous. Too bad it can’t be reformulated and returned to the market again. So many gorgeous long lost perfumes out there.
