The forgotten Coke bottle on the chalk cliffs at Cape Arkona and the mineral power of the tides!
Hello everyone,

today at this late hour I would like to write something about Atlantic Ambergris II, because in my opinion it really deserves soooo much more attention.

Before I get to the fragrance, something different and rather personal, any of you who like/love and appreciate the indy niche world - the utmost respect from me - honest and the creativity .... partly WOW, but this direction is not for me, the spiciness, oudiness + the musk are 99% too strong for me. The only wearable option for me in everyday life (except in summer) is the Atlantic Ambergris II !

About the fragrance:

For me, it reflects exactly what I wrote above = spot on.

You notice the spicy cola, the green - woody direction of the pine which is almost balsamic (love that) and you notice the power of the water and there we have the absolute star the mineral amber (-gris) which gives the fragrance an incredible DEPTH and perfection. In the heart and base notes, we see many, many notes and there are probably many more... for me, these are purely marginal notes.

It becomes a little more pleasant and softer in the drydown, but if it is fully wearable even for me ;) then it probably will be for you too.

I really like it and for me it "almost" scratches the title of masterpiece....

Even my wife, who likes it much less than I do - likes it very much and I can only say openly and honestly that one day (sooner or later) I will grab a leftover bottle of it.

Give it a chance, because it deserves it!

A tip from me: test it on your skin and NOT on the fragrance strip or judge it by the spray head. It really works its magic on the skin and I was really stunned by the massive difference!

If I really wasn't convinced, I wouldn't recommend it to you!

And now have a nice day/evening, or whatever you are reading this review, LG the Benny

I like that one!
Many thanks to Nick for the many bottlings :-) There was just enough left in my atomizer of Atlantic Ambergris II to be able to write a review - lucky me ;-) The scent is extremely exciting and I really liked it. The longevity is clear at 7 to 8 hours and the sillage is also successful.

I like the top note best here. It smells totally exciting like an oriental cola with sherbet aromas. This is followed by green, citrusy and woody aromas of pine and bergamot. The heart note has a distinctly spicy scent of cloves and nutmeg. In the background, there are floral notes of jasmine blossom, ylang-ylang and champaca. The base is very complex. Labdanum creates vanilla aromas. Violet leaves and oakmoss bring greenish and earthy notes to the fragrance. Thanks to nagarmotha and opoponax, it also smells smoky, leathery and woody.

Yes, dat thing is really good. But production has apparently been discontinued - what a shame!

Nice Areej
Atlantic Ambergris II opens with a deep, fermented bergamot citrus note ala Musk Lave in conjunction with Russian Adam’s Pine Forest accord most notably found in the Russian Musk series. Here’s it’s dialed down and expertly blended in soft bubblegum florals which calls to mind a vintage Chypre of yesteryear. The moment

A complex, clean ambergris perfume
Like most Areej le Dore perfumes, this one only improved for me and got better and better with time. I must say that I do prefer this version over the first one, as the white ambergris in here is very prominent, while it felt more dormant with the original one. Also, I prefer Atlantic Ambergris over Baikal Gris (the other ambergris-centered perfume from the house) by a large margin.

The perfume is incredibly complex, going through three main stages in the classic top-heart-base perfume structure while combining different genres in one work. It has some Fougere qualities, some Chypre ones, as well as some Oriental ones. The canvas for the entire composition is the white ambergris, which smells incredibly clean, oceanic, salty, and mineral, with a very delicate and mesmerizing profile, as this variety has. And if you are looking for an ambergris-centered perfume, this is hard to top, especially since you will be entertained with much more.
The opening is spicy and juicy. I get bergamot, cloves, and cardamom but also a faint ylang-ylang at this stage already, lending an exotic, fruity-like quality to the opening. Pine is listed as a top note but I don't get that yet. It feels cool and a bit old-fashioned because of the heavy clove, but also very aromatic and warm from the cardamom. The heart unfolds floral facets, that almost feel bubble-gummy at times, as I usually might perceive the combination of ylang-ylang and certain jasmine varieties, and here I also get the pine. Floral and woodsy. In the base, there's warmth given by the resins and earthiness from the moss. It almost feels chewy here, the combination of myrrh, labdanum, and oakmoss. The oceanic minerality is always present, in the background.

A perfume of many colors, facets, and flavors, spanning various genres but always staying true to the main ingredient, ambergris.

Cola through the pines
Atlantic ambergris II opens with a marked resinous note of pine, very balsamic and cardamom.
It turns out sweet and juicy: cola effect for my nose.
Cloves and iris contribute greatly to dustiness and smoothness.
Animalic vibes? Zero!
For me is wearable and not too difficult scent.
I still prefer the more animalic or "oudy" creations by Adam.

Citric opening, ambergris and oakmoss in the base. Salty, spiced with clove and nutmeg. It's also floral, powdery, woody. Perfectly blended.

Clove-heavy, sweet floral. If you expect ocean breeze with Russian forest you will be disappointed. Christmas market next to a flower shop.

Nice, I think of the sea, its clean smell, the amber is very high quality in the perfume, but a little drowned.
