The refreshing shades of amber
It is light and subtle, almost like an eau de cologne, but it is very addictive. Use it in spring and autumn, under mild or warm temperatures, and on summer evenings. The fragrance lingers lightly in the air around you. It is pleasant and easy to wear, the kind of fragrance that will not offend anyone.
The bottle is very pretty and stands out on any shelf. It has an almost opaque, golden, attractive, liquid colour. The presentation is a little too feminine, but I can live with it very well. Well... it is marketed as a feminine fragrance.
The development begins with citrus and juicy mandarin, followed by a spicy accord of cardamom and dark green tea. It all combines very well with a seductive peony note. The development ends with a mild and not sweet amber accord with a touch of austere cedarwood. It is very pleasant and it really smells like a unisex gender. What is new about this amber fragrance is that it can be worn in mild and warm weather. You may dissociate it from the common idea of an amber fragrance being advisable for colder temperatures.
It is not a compliment grabber but, as a very versatile fragrance, it that can be enjoyed for instance on your own, and preferably at leisure. It is a perfect, non-intrusive office fragrance. Once you get used to it, you will use up the bottle in no time at all.
Just like a common Eau de Cologne, this EdT has an inviting price and it will be easy on your wallet even if you heavily breathe it in at your leisure time.
Let's take a look at the numbers for Ambar:
___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___
- Opening: 8.5 (citrus and spicy cardamom freshening up the posterior amber development).
- Drydown: 7.5 (pleasant dryness, but too light for my taste; it can hardly be called an oriental fragrance).
- Longevity: 7,0 (up to 5 hours - 3 sprays)
- Sillage: 6.0 (up to an arm's length with almost 1.5 hours of weak projection - 3 sprays)
- Uniqueness: 8.5 (unique with natural freshness but in an amber scent)
- Versatility: 9.0 (can be used almost anywhere, although not the best choice for a night out or clubbing; great for the office)
- Wearability: 7.0 (wear it on spring, autumn and summer evenings; it is not a winter scent)
- Compliments: 5.0 (never overbearing, pleasant to use, but not enough for getting compliments)
- Quality: 8.0 (a tiny bit synthetic; good quality bottle and spray)
- Presentation: 9.0 (very nice)
- Price: 10.0 (100 ml flask for 10 euros in an internet shop - what a bargain)
___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___
Average: 7.77 / 10.00
- between 7 and 8 = above average;
- between 8 and 9 = recommendable;
- greater than 9 = not to be missed;
Recommendation: For the price I paid, you could easily buy it blindly! As a suggestion, you could leave it on the bathroom table for a fresh amber scent after showering, or in the office to just spray it on.
