What does Accord No. 03: Ambre smell like?

Oakmoss and amyris give it an earthy, green base, while ambrette seed and osmanthus soften that base. Tonka bean, Peru balsam and styrax bring out the sweet, resinous side, with a spicy accord running behind them.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards evenings and leisure wear. Votes split evenly between masculine and feminine, so it sits comfortably in the middle. Walden Perfumes A Different Drummer and Pineward Hayride have a close profile.
