What does Royal Amber smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it is worn mainly for nights out and evenings. Most voters read it as masculine, though it stays unisex in spirit.
It opens with bergamot, apricot and ginger, a fruity and spicy start. The heart brings lavender, rose and cardamom, where the floral side comes forward. In the base, gaiac wood, praliné and sandalwood settle it into a sweet, gourmand and woody finish.
