What does Tales of Amber smell like?

Cinnamon brings a spicy warmth, while orange blossom and iris add a powdery, creamy floral softness. Australian oud and New Zealand ambergris pull the balance toward the woody and resinous side, and the Ambre accord smooths the sweetness and carries it through. It reads as one whole rather than as separate layers.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with evenings and nights out leading, though business and daily wear still get a fair share. It leans somewhat masculine in the votes, yet a sizeable group finds it feminine.
