What does Amber Noir smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong by most voters, though the number of votes is small, so the picture is tentative. There are no season or occasion votes, so it can't be tied to one time of year. Being unisex, it doesn't lean towards masculine or feminine.

The top holds fig, elemi resin and carrot, giving a green, spicy start. Lily of the valley in the heart adds a soft, powdery turn. The base of cedarwood, sandalwood and musk builds a warm, woody foundation. Birkholz Iris N' Wood and Jacques Bogart Santal Fig have a close profile.
