What does 1881 Amber (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It opens with the cool bite of violet leaf, ozonic notes and green pepper. Lavender, jasmine and rose bring a soft floral heart. The base of vetiver, cedar and amber leaves it earthy, woody and slightly sweet, with spicy and synthetic touches along the way.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, and daily and business wear. It reads masculine and classic. Dimensione Uomo Sensual Fougère and Korres Vetiver Root have a close profile.
