What does Sensual Amber smell like?

It opens with bergamot, orange blossom and magnolia, a lightly fruity floral start. In the heart, orchid, vanilla and almond push it towards a gourmand sweetness. The base of amber, sequoia wood and tonka bean leaves a warm, resinous, woody ground, with spicy and oriental touches running through it.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick autumn, with winter and spring close behind. It leans towards leisure and daily wear and also suits the office. Voters mostly read it as feminine. Fragonard Rose Ambre and Paris Corner Mehwish have a close profile.
