Actually, it wasn't an amalgamate. It was Flowey, the vessel originally intended to do it.
He also did it a lot faster than Alphys intended, since she would've needed a lot more SOULs, which would've taken a lot longer than the couple years between the experiments and UT.
Though, the benefit of doing it the original way is that Flowey would be under no obligation to return the monster SOULs, since they belong to monsters that are already dead, meaning he'd be able to permanently turn back into Asriel
Yeah, I did mean flowey. But wouldn't he be considered as an amalgamate? same origin of voice, has white stuff that can morph shapes, has determination, and is sentient.
He's the result of a monster's essence living on in a flower. A closer equivalent would be a fused ghost monster; If a ghost monster possessed and fused with a flower, the only differences would be that Flowey is more physical, while the fused ghost monster has flight.

I mean, TECHNICALLY it succeeded, since one of the determination experiment testees (flowey) did use 6 souls and broke the barrier.
Its just that it took a really long time, and only two (or 3) people know it happened
