Gentle Start, but then...
When I read the list of fragrance notes above, I wonder what all can be packed into an amber scent. And above all, does it really have to be this way? Too many cooks spoil the broth, and unfortunately, this is a case of that.
The opening is wonderfully gentle. Not sweet, just a nice hint of warmth. Very close to the skin for me. Personally, it's a bit too gentle, but that’s why I would never rate the fragrance poorly.
But unfortunately, after about 2.5 hours, it turned harsh, for me a distinctly cheap aftershave note. The amber had completely transformed for me, from beautiful to yuck. I have no idea what causes it. Is there a note that clashes with my skin?
At least the longevity wasn’t too strong; after 5 hours, it was all over.

Sunny Fruity Amber Beauty
“Ambra” by Mazzolari is a wonderful fragrance for me. I organized my first sharing for it, and now I would like to dedicate my first comment to it.

Right from the first test, I knew: This is a scent for me! Immediately upon spraying, “Ambra” feels bright, sunny-warm, friendly, natural, and pleasantly sweet.

The sweetness harmoniously combines various aspects: I perceive a hint of citrus-freshness, something balsamic, and a fruity note, all perfectly balanced. I want to emphasize that I do not like very sweet or very fruity fragrances, but here the dosage is pleasant and just right for me - it shouldn't be more, but it is also not too much. A lovely boundary-crosser, so to speak.

A gentle yet distinct fragrance note then adds to it, which I have not noticed in any other perfume. I wouldn't have been able to say what it is without help. Knowing the fragrance pyramid, I strongly suspect that it is the ginger and chamomile that are responsible for this beautiful facet. They give the scent something special, individual, somehow comforting and natural.

“Ambra” has a touch of elegance, a small hint of “perfuminess,” but just a little. Overall, it is rather a natural beauty that does not seek the spotlight or set itself apart, but simply exists and shines in a completely unpretentious way.

“Ambra” is present but not intrusive. The fragrance envelops me, wrapping me in a warm, friendly scent veil and giving me a cozy, snuggly feeling. However, in my feeling, it is not a typical winter fragrance at all - on the contrary, I believe I will enjoy wearing it in every season, except when it gets really hot in summer. Then “Ambra” will become too balsamic, too sweet, too intense. But for a slightly cooler summer day, I can well imagine it. For spring, autumn, and winter, definitely.

My nose is still quite inexperienced, but I can still say that Mazzolari’s “Ambra” is not a typical amber scent. Of course, it has its warm and balsamic facets, but the fruitiness and the chamomile-ginger hint make it brighter and lighter than many other amber fragrances.

“Ambra” is suitable for daylight, everyday wear, year-round, and I would say even for the office. Nevertheless, it is also suitable for special occasions, perhaps then a bit more heavily dosed. In everyday life, three sprays are enough to surround me with a beautiful, well-perceptible, but not too strong scent veil. In this assessment, I rely on the comments I have received so far from others, which have all been positive, by the way. The fragrance does not undergo a significant development on me. It doesn’t need to.

So far, I know three perfumes from Mazzolari, all of which I like exceptionally well. “Ambra” is currently one of my favorite fragrances and a centerpiece of my small collection.

The geisha weeps ginger tears and scatters chamomile blossoms. Jasmine tea shimmers in jade green bowls. Sandalwood twilight.

Basically, "Ambre Nuit | Dior" is high-quality, soft, elegant, and better balanced! This is how I wished the original would be.

Those expecting amber will find little. Very fruity and creamy, almost kitschy. Reminds me a lot of "11 Semma". Too lukewarm.

If you love tea, especially Earl Grey and chamomile, you'll truly enjoy this perfume. The combination is really interesting.

Patchy-floral amber scent. Light citrus sharpness from ginger and bergamot. Mainly, though, still amber (not Earl Grey tea).
