From your scent profile
Dr. Vranjes Ambra is a sweet, spicy amber scent with a powdery, resinous and woody build, a warm and dense unisex character that has been discontinued.
Skunky's take: The votes point to evening; dressed for a nice dinner.

Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
People close to you notice, nobody gets overwhelmed.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

What does Ambra smell like?
It opens with geranium and iris, then moves into a heart of patchouli, labdanum, amber and cistus. Sandalwood, vanilla and cedarwood sit underneath and soften the whole into something sweeter. Animal and chypre touches keep the powdery sweetness from reading as a plain vanilla.
Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, with scores above seven, though few people have voted. The warm, resinous structure leans towards cooler weather. It reads neither masculine nor feminine, and Réminiscence Ambre and Tauerville Amber Flash have a close profile.
