What does Ambra smell like?

The top holds bergamot, geranium and frankincense, with the bergamot giving a brief lift. At the heart, patchouli and Peru balsam set a woody, spicy base. The drydown turns creamy and sweet through vanilla, tonka bean and musk, while vetiver adds a dry woody edge. Floral and smoky accords stay in the background.

Voters find the longevity strong and the sillage good. Most pick fall and winter, with evenings and nights out leading and leisure wear close behind. Votes split between masculine and feminine, so it reads as truly unisex. Moresque Soul Batik and Birkholz Berlin Dream have a close profile.
