What does Ambrose (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?

The top notes are mint and Bulgarian rose, which give a fresh, citrusy, green opening with a floral edge from the rose. Aniseed in the heart adds a spicy touch. In the base, amber and sandalwood settle the scent into something woody, oriental and creamy.

Those who have rated it find both the longevity and the sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so these impressions are still tentative. It reads as neither strongly masculine nor feminine, and sits comfortably on any skin. Xerjoff Rose Gold and Dior Cologne Royale have a close profile.
