Fort & Manlé / Amber Absolutely

In my opinion, the best fragrance of this brand. Beautiful and perfectly composed. At the beginning it is hitting the nose - warm amber (resins, labdanum) combined with the scent of plum, blackcurrant and some spices. Later, wood, resins and vetiver come to the fore, which hold the composition and together with ambergris and labdanum make the fragrance sweeter. Musk is slightly noticeable in the background. He doesn't feel the rose at all (maybe it's in a very small amount). A beautiful fragrance, elegant, luxurious and worth knowing at least. A fragrance for fall and winter - given the slight sweetness and warmth of the projection. Despite the fact that I am not a fan of broadly understood 'ambergris' - it is this fragrance, and even though it is sweet - it really charmed me. I think there will be a bottle. I RECOMMEND

Plum does the trick

Amber Absolutely Olfactory Description

Black currant and Plum mingle with a sensual Rose in the heart which is elevated by a sweet cedar and soft hay-like vetiver note swirling around a succulent Amber resin; with a touch of benzoin adding richness to an opulent base of musk and leather-like Labdanum. Once all intertwined an elixir of some of the most costly of all perfumer materials accosting everyone in its trail with a scent which Middle Eastern Royalty would be celebratory of. Gum Resins which have been used in perfumery for millennia with origins from the Middle East have been taken by Fort & Manle and blended them with the sumptuous notes of plum and black currant so well to create a scent which is both alluring and majestic.

Amber barber shop

This is a weird amber perfume. I have pressed the i LOVE Burton, because i can recognize a good quality here, although this is not a perfume that i would wear. I ser the notes List but this is not what i smell. I sobre say thelist is wrobg because if i think and abstracto myself i can recog ize this notes but the first impresión is totally different. If i wouldnt see the list i would say this a bsrber shop kind of perfume, very masculine, with a very ambery and balsámic background but without loosing his fougere? And classic Style. I get Aldo some honey vibe which makesme remember perfumes like tabú by dana.the performance is better than other f&m perfumes and i think It leans a bit more masculine although the sweetness makes It easily worn by women. It has also some decicinal vibe. For cold weather better.

Dear Aunt Manlé,
I am infinitely grateful for the recipe you sent me last week. You were completely right that vegetarianism is not an escape for us just because we no longer enjoy meat. It’s all about the preparation, how true that is. With your "Amber Absolutely," you have even managed to create a multi-course menu in just one piece. That is masterful, Aunt Manlé.
This fruity-spicy plum, whose sweetness is merely tempered by a light tartness of blackcurrant and flanked by a minimal nuance of rose, is an extraordinary aperitif, as it allows us to start with dessert like greedy children. I could hardly believe it was possible to infuse meat with such a scent. I enjoyed this appetizer for several hours before I slowly moved on to the second course.
I know you knew it, Aunt, but I must express my gratitude once again at this point: I love smoked meat, especially when it is resinous-ambered and lightly woody as here. This main course melts away sweetly balsamic for hours, stays warm for a long time, perfectly balancing amber, benzoin, and labdanum, and only rarely allows a cool green spiciness to peek through. That’s how I like people. Who needs a sweet dessert when you don’t want to stop enjoying the main course, especially when it becomes so light and airy that you could take it to bed with you? I know, dear aunt, you once forbade me to take food to bed because of the stains, but can’t we make an exception just this once?
