Alambar

Most voters pick fall and winter, with evenings and nights out leading and leisure wear close behind. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Votes split almost evenly between feminine and masculine, so it sits comfortably in between.

It opens with amber, cocoa and bergamot, then cinnamon and vanilla join in the heart, while amber carries through to the base. The result is sweet and gourmand, with a spicy, resinous and woody warmth underneath, and a powdery, slightly smoky edge. Rare Beauty Amber Vanilla and Akro Dark have a close profile.
