Very sweet amber

Ambre d'Or starts out very sweet and a little bit dusty, like candied fruit with a touch of Arabian spice. It's no doubt a gourmand at first sight and the top and heart notes are delicious and alluring, if a bit too saccharine for some people's tastes.

The surprise I got, however, was in the drydown, where the perfume shed half its sweetness and a beautiful oriental, resinous, creamy dream revealed itself on my skin. Reminded me of Must de Cartier and Imperial Opoponax, with its vintage air, sensual smooth texture and rich warmth.

It smells like a far-out place, both in time and in space.
