How does it perform?
From 75 community ratings, all out of 10.
Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

WoodyWhat does Bois d'Ambrette / Peau d'Ambrette smell like?
Ginger and mandarin orange open it with a citrusy, lightly spicy start. In the heart, ambrette seed, angelica and amyris bring a green, floral feel. Ambroxan, musk and sandalwood settle it onto a soft, powdery woody base.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without crowding the room. Most voters pick spring and fall, and leisure, daily and business wear lead the occasions. Votes for feminine and masculine are nearly even. Escentric Molecules Escentric 02 and Evody Fleur d'Oranger have a close profile.
