Powdery Amber with a Little Fur Animal

Kleos Amber Series Part 13

Dear Claudine has also lent me this sample, thanks again for that!

I find this scent rather delicate and not so "ambery." It even develops a bit powdery on me, which I really like. I mean, there was even a (small) animal nearby, albeit at a distance. But there is a tiny animalistic note present.

There isn't much scent evolution for me. L’Eau de Ambre remains rather light, powdery, delicate, a bit of amber, a tiny bit of animal, really nice, but not so much that this scent blows me away. It is warm, soft, skin-like, light, subtle, unobtrusive, doesn't annoy, but also doesn't excite. At least not me.

I also tested the l’Eau de Ambre extreme from this brand (also from Claudine). So under "extreme," I understand extreme, meaning a notch sharper. However, for me, there was only one note (which I unfortunately can't specify) that was more dominant. Beyond that, I could hardly notice any difference.

I think it's beautiful! I'm really excited about it. Teint de Neige with patchouli. It's going straight onto my wish list, right now!

A herbal throat lozenge, minty, wrapped in patchouli and vanilla. More boring than animalic.

More amber would be too much for me. Here it's finally 'just right':-)) You're just used to heavier scents. Thanks for your testing series, which I follow closely. Very helpful and informative.

For me, the scent was clearly much more "talkative" and expansive than it was for you. Sorry for you, but a fragrance can be like that sometimes. Thanks for the informative comment... *trophy put down*

Perfect! I've thought about getting one of those two fragrances from time to time, but I never quite went for it - they're just too nice and harmless.

You've sparked my interest in the amber note with your amber series. You've really done something there! Thank you!

An exciting brand that I haven't dared to try yet. But I will get to it soon :-)

It's one of my favorite brands, but not all of them are really outstanding.

Every now and then, the little furry creature accompanies me, and I quite like wearing it.

The little fur creature would scare me a bit :), so nothing that needs to go on the wishlist urgently.

I haven't come across the animal yet; I need to go on a safari sometime ;-) But I won't be repurchasing the bottle once it's empty. As you said, the scent is nice, but that's about it.

We had it in our hands before, but we decided to leave it. I found it a bit boring.

Yes, I know that little creature - by the time I had it, it was already quite grown up and definitely not in the mood for cuddling. And it's true: the addition of "extreme" doesn't necessarily indicate an extreme with this brand.
