Arabian dream

I just tried this perfume and I fell immediately in love with it! It's the apotheose of sensuality with the amber main note and its oriental-spicy acchord; a round, involving bouquet perfect for women too expecially by night. The amber base isn't medicinal, but sweet and very strong, but made deeper and richer by the leathery notes and more lively by the spicy touch . Smelling this perfect acchord I imagined to be in the harem of an oriental palace. The sillage is strong and you smell this oriental symphony on your skin for many hours. The price of the perfumes of this special collection is very high, but the quality is the top. Another Guerlain's masterpiece!

Warm and spicy oriental with orange peel

The scent opens for me very unexpectedly: Somehow I detect a strong chewing gum note at the beginning, which fortunately subsides quickly. After that, warm amber paired with spicy herbs flows, if you get very close with your nose. I find the coriander rather attractive here, it almost fascinates me, at least it is so interesting that I lead my nose much more often to the wrist than with other fragrances, which I like better :D Others seem to be more disturbed by it. I hardly smell the cardamom.
The listed orange is not a typical tangy orange like the freshly squeezed orange juice, but rather orange peels, which you put on the fireplace at Christmas time and which spread the typical feel-good atmosphere :)
The leather is only very shallow in my sample and supports the warmth of the amber rather than competing with it.
Guerlain-typical stylish flacon, can be seen.
All in all a nice scent :) I would personally only wear it at home for myself. Not worthy of blind buy.

Cuir Intense + Ambre Eternel

For people to understand Intensely animalic fragrances like these two, something must be understood,
you have got to wait for at least 2 minutes before even thinking of smelling them if you are testing (assuming of course that you have enough intelligence not to buy them blind).

The animalic note is right in the front of everything you are going to smell, and I think that was a smart move by Thierry Wasser, instead of ending up smelling like chewed up shoe after 8-9 hours, the animalic note is right at the beginning, intense and unapologetic, naturally as time goes by it starts to fades away slowly and in the process covering everything else in a layer of class and sophistication that stays until everything dries down completely.

The fruitiness of Ambre Eternel makes it a bit more feminine than Cuir Intense, both perform admirably, smell divine and would challenge even the most seasoned fragrance collector.

Well Done Guerlain, well done.

Strong Leathery one

My First impression is sweet and powdery. Then the leather comes in and it becomes dry and soft and masculine. not bad at all actually, really like this one.
Typical night parfum when you are going out and want to hunt some woman’s. Longevity is strong very strong, tha day after my room was still smelling to this great one.
