What does Ambre (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
It opens with bergamot and apple, but cinnamon, honey and sesame warm it almost at once. In the heart, rose, cardamom and fir balsam bring a floral, resinous balance. The base keeps the sweetness going with amber, vanilla and benzoin, while tobacco and rum add a darker, gourmand edge.
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring in third place. Evening and night out are the most common occasions. Masculine and feminine votes sit close together, with masculine slightly ahead.
