What does Ambrosia smell like?

The floral side leads: blue lotus, ylang-ylang, neroli and frangipani, lifted by citrusy mandarin orange. Tonka bean and Mysore sandalwood keep it creamy and sweet, cinnamon leaf and cardamom add a light spice, and patchouli and Atlas cedar give it an earthy, woody footing.

Voters find both its longevity and its sillage good. Autumn and winter lead, with spring close behind, and it leans towards leisure, night-out and evening wear. Feminine votes run slightly ahead, though masculine votes are there too. It has been discontinued.
