What does Amber+Smoke smell like?
It opens with lemon zest, orange blossom and saffron, bright and spicy. The heart of tobacco, Egyptian jasmine and amber adds a soft warmth. In the base, pine wood and moss lay a woody floor, sugar pulls the scent towards gourmand, and pipe tobacco smoke leaves a lingering trail. The overall feel is sweet, creamy and resinous.
Voters rate its longevity as good and its sillage as moderate, though the number of votes is small, so take this as a first impression. With its dense, oriental character and masculine leaning, it should sit more comfortably in cooler weather and evening hours.
