What does Colonia Ambrata smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick it for evening, though daytime, business and leisure wear also get votes. It sits in the middle ground between masculine and feminine.

It opens green and fresh with bergamot and ivy. The heart turns soft and floral through white rose, violet and cashmere wood. In the base, patchouli, ebony, labdanum and musk take over, and the dry-down becomes earthy, resinous, slightly smoky and leathery, with a sweet edge.
