What does Amber Incense smell like?

Both its longevity and its sillage are rated strong, with voters scoring each one high. The number of votes is small, so those ratings are best read with some caution. Its value for money is also rated well.

The top notes are bergamot, pimento and oregano, giving an opening that is spicy with a green edge. Towards the heart, frankincense, amber, opoponax and cistus build a resinous, smoky body. The base of oud, patchouli, leather and sandalwood leaves a warm, woody trail. Amouage Interlude 53 and Amouage Interlude Man have a close profile.
