Ambre d'Or Il Profvmo 2004

Okay, the title sounds worse, but what I want to express is that the scent has an extremely oily consistency and I never want to try something like this again :D
Because you should know that I really dislike oily things on my fingers, so it's always a horror for me when I see people eating chicken with their hands, but NOT using a napkin… and touching everything on the table with their greasy and sticky fingers… uuhhh….

Anyway. The scent, however, turned out to be quite okay, even if I don't find it particularly special. Or rather, not outstanding compared to other amber fragrances.

The scent:
At first, a light amber scent greets you, which is then increasingly overshadowed by resinous, smoky notes. Alongside, there are light, spicy notes, but these remain more in the background.
I'm not so sure about the opium, as I don't know exactly how that smells. Maybe this is the one slightly unfamiliar note that I perceive as more spicy, or I just smell the spices that have become stronger, I can't say for sure.
Later, woods come into play, which settle into the background and form a good base. You can also smell the honey, but you have to get a bit closer to the applied spot for that.
Later, the scent takes a familiar direction, as one often knows from amber fragrances. Heavily sweet with spicy and even very slightly soft-powdery notes.

The longevity and sillage:
I can't say much about the longevity, as I eventually washed off the scent due to its oily consistency…
The sillage didn't seem that strong to me despite being an amber scent. Sure, at first, it's quite noticeable, but then it quickly drops to an average level.

The bottle:
The bottle is nice, but a bit simple. It is rectangular and slightly widens towards the neck. It is filled with a yellow fragrance liquid. The cap is silver or chrome and cylindrical. I particularly like the label, as it features beautiful Corinthian (or Composite? I couldn't tell exactly…) columns as a frame.

Yaaa,… actually, Ambre d’Or is a nicely made amber scent, but it's not particularly outstanding among all the other amber fragrances. I think there are much better ones, like Ambra by Omnia Profumi or Ambre Gris by Balmain.

Additionally, the scent is very oily and thus not only causes greasy fingers (with a splash), but can also leave stains on clothing. Therefore, everyone has to decide for themselves whether they want something like this.
The scent is, as is often the case with amber fragrances, more of an autumn and winter scent, but since it doesn't feel too heavy, it can be used as a daytime fragrance. For going out, even for quieter occasions, it is a bit too unremarkable.
