What does Ambre Fumé smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, which suits anyone wanting a dense, warm scent. The vote count is small, though, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It reads equally well on men and women.

Vanilla, caramel, tonka bean and almond carry the sweetness, while roasted chestnut adds a baked warmth. Cardamom and clove bring spice, and amber, benzoin and frankincense give a soft resinous body. Thai oud and gaiac wood add a smoky depth.
