What does Glistening Amber smell like?

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. The sweet, spicy build makes it a feminine scent that sits more comfortably in cooler weather.

It opens with frangipani and black raspberry, which give a fruity sweetness. In the heart, iris, frankincense and vanilla turn it resinous and slightly powdery. The base of amber, cashmeran and Muscenone® settles into a warm, woody and faintly smoky finish, with a synthetic sheen running through it.
