The notes read as a single whole: rose and carnation bring the floral side, met by the fruity sweetness of plum and sangria. Honey, almond and tonka bean push the gourmand angle, while coffee and patchouli add an earthy depth. Amber, musk and orris root form a powdery, resinous base.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it makes itself felt without filling the room. It is unisex in character. Few people have rated it, so these figures are a rough guide rather than a firm verdict. Histoires de Parfums Ambre 114 and Les Senteurs Gourmandes Amber Oud have a close profile.
