What does Ambre smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. The vote count is small, which makes this only a rough guide. It reads as unisex, without leaning clearly towards masculine or feminine.

Geranium, orange and lavender open fresh and fruity. In the heart, cistus, vanilla and rose take over, sweetening the scent and giving it a soft, gourmand edge. The base of musk, patchouli, white cedar, sandalwood and ambergris settles into a woody, earthy ground. Maître Parfumeur et Gantier Ambre Tibet and L'Erbolario Méharées have a close profile.
