Niche version of Prada L'Homme Intense

Ambre des Abysses by Houbigant.

Just as all their other fragrances, this one is just the same a masterpiece. Ambre des Abysses is a proper but sweet scent. For those of you that have seen Suits, I think this is a scent which Mr Harvey Specter could and would wear. The scent could definetly be worn to the office, but containing a bit of sexiness. And for me this would be one I would wear to the office, the fragrance reminds me a little of Prada L'Homme but niche. Which does not mean better! This fragrance is just less made to please the crowd. If you like Prada L'Homme or YSL Tuxedo - Le Vestiaire, definetly give this one a try!

The scent itself is exactly what the layers tell you. It opens great fresh with mint and orange blossom, I even smell a little bit of amber in here already. Then, ofcourse, come the middle and base notes. For me this fragrance is quite interesting, because the skin and clothing smell differs greatly. I find that extremely interesing about this fragrance, but unfortunately I do not know why or how that works... The scent on the skin keeps hanging at the heart, or middle notes with a fresh flowery patchouli-like smell, amazing. Then as we continue on this journey in the abysses, where the clothes do seem to reach, the leather, tonka bean and vanilla come forth greatly, this part of the scent seems a little bit like Tabac Nomad, but more proper, this could be worn to the office.
Ambre des Abysses. A great fragrance which has the best place as a daily or office scent, however I would not recommend this one to be worn in the summer, or above 20/25 degrees.
