What does Ambre Céruléen smell like?

Opoponax and myrrh give it a resinous warmth, while sandalwood lays a woody base. Cardamom adds a spicy edge, tonka bean pulls the whole toward a gourmand, powdery sweetness, and Moroccan neroli softens that richness a little.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it is chosen most often for evenings and nights out. Feminine and masculine votes are close, so it reads as truly unisex. Valmont Gaggia Medio I and Profumum Roma Oxiana have a close profile.
