What does Ambre Chic smell like?

Most voters pick winter, autumn and spring, and few choose summer. It leans towards evenings and nights out, with room for the office and daily wear. Longevity and sillage are rated good, and most votes call it masculine.

It opens with mandarin orange and sage, then iris and tonka bean come through in the heart. Leather and vanilla sit at the base. A gourmand sweetness dominates within a floral, woody, oriental frame. Le Chameau Journey to Heaven and Valentino Valentino Uomo Intense have a close profile.
