"Hey, what did you spray - smells good!" :)
I discovered three fragrances from a series by 100Bon while surfing, which were new and not listed on Parfumo: Chap. 3 - Ambre & Tonka is one of them.

The three fragrances are by Jean-Claude and Céline Ellena - even I know that the former is a kind of perfumer legend and the latter is his daughter.
Since I am also active in the research area here, I submitted the fragrances and was curious about how they would turn out :)

In the opening and for a long time afterwards, I can actually pick out a single note here: mandarin.
I have proven to like this note in perfumes, and I have several perfumes with this note in my collection.

However, I cannot discern what this note is intertwined with; of course, I can read which notes are listed here (I submitted the fragrance myself... ;>) but it only provides a general impression:
Beautiful scent. With good sillage, O-Ton (and title of this review) from another room (!) after spraying:
"Hey, what did you spray - smells good!" :)

Since I love vanilla fragrances, vanilla is probably not entirely uninvolved here, but I cannot pick out this note.

In general, while wearing/testing, I had to think of Grand Soir (which I find very beautiful):
The scent does not smell like Grand Soir, but it reminds me of it. Comparing the notes of both fragrances, there are similarities; perhaps the 'overall impression' is similar.

I must specifically mention the sprayer here (this applies to all three fragrances):
It’s amazing, one of the best in my entire collection, it’s like a rain shower that distributes a fine perfume mist instead of water...

Amber scent arrives
on velvet paws,
caressed by vanilla.
Tonka bean turns to dust,
lingering calmly in the air.

Gentle amber scent, spiced with juicy mandarin and tonka bean. Light sweetness. Warm + soft, also suitable for the office due to its subtlety.

This scent immediately brings to mind the color rose gold. Like when the sun sets in winter. It smells wonderfully pure and unpretentious of
