What does Tender Amber Intense smell like?

Floral notes of tuberose, magnolia and rose sit over the amber, while exotic fruits, lemon and blackcurrant keep it fresh and fruity. Saffron adds spice, frankincense and labdanum bring resin, and cedar and cashmere wood give a woody base. Vanilla and musk soften the sweetness, and the accords carry a faint smoky, synthetic edge.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn not far behind; it is chosen mostly for daily and leisure wear, with evenings also fitting. It is classed as masculine. Zara Tender Amber and Maison Alhambra Rosso have a close profile.
