What does Ambre (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Clove and geranium open on a spicy, floral note. The heart sets patchouli, cedarwood and sandalwood on a woody footing. At the base, vanilla, musk, amber and benzoin bring sweetness and a powdery, resinous warmth, with an animal edge that adds depth.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters recommend fall and winter, with evening, daily wear and nights out leading the occasions. Most voters read it as feminine, while some call it masculine or classic. Réminiscence Souffle Ambré and Les Perles D'Orient Ambre have a close profile.
