What does Baptême Ambré smell like?

Amber and opoponax form the core, with cinnamon adding spicy warmth while rose and geranium bring a soft floral touch. Sweetness leads, but the resinous and smoky sides keep it in balance.

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick winter and fall, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. Voters read it as both feminine and masculine, so it works as a unisex scent. Lattafa Opulent Oud and Jovoy Psychédélique have a close profile.
