What does Ambre Épices smell like?

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these figures are only a rough guide. Its unisex profile means it sits comfortably on either men or women.

The notes read as one continuous composition: mandarin orange and bergamot give it a fruity lift, while juniper berry and patchouli ground it in wood. Labdanum, myrrh and ambrette seed add a sweet, resinous, lightly spiced warmth, and ambroxan softens the whole. Jesus del Pozo Peony and Ajmal Amber Wood (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
