Quick answer: Mykonos Untamed is a strong Sunforged extrait de parfum that is clean and warm at once: crisp linen and blackcurrant, praline and coconut soap, then black amber and cashmeran. It is unisex and made in 100 ml only.
Untamed is one of the harder Mykonos perfumes to describe, and one of the easier ones to like. It opens clean, like fresh linen and blackcurrant, then warms into praline and a soft coconut-soap accord, and finishes on black amber and cashmeran. It is part of the Sunforged line and is made only in 100 ml. Here is how it wears.
What Mykonos Untamed smells like
The opening is bright and airy: blackcurrant, bergamot and lemon with aldehydes and a crisp linen accord. Aldehydes give that sparkling, "just laundered" effect, and the linen accord reinforces it.
The heart turns softer and warmer: praline, musk, jasmine and violet, with a coconut-soap accord. The coconut soap is clean rather than tropical, and together with the praline it gives Untamed its characteristic creamy-clean feel.
The base is black amber, cedarwood, vetiver, musk, vanilla and cashmeran. Cashmeran is a soft, musky-woody material with a velvety texture, and with the amber it creates a warm, enveloping drydown.
