What does Harrods Amber (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the small number of votes means this should be read with caution. It is classed as unisex, and no clear season or occasion stands out.

Amber and benzoin give it a resinous warmth, while jasmine, rose and osmanthus carry the floral side. Saffron, nutmeg and white pepper add spice, and sandalwood, oud and myrrh set a woody, slightly animalic depth. Bergamot and musk soften the dense mix. Bond No. 9 New York Amber (Extrait de Parfum) and Fragrance Du Bois Oud Noir Intense have a close profile.
