I'm enjoying wearing Ambra Aurea so intensively today, I had to write a few words to honor it. I own and enjoy other ambers this one seems to grab them up together in one huge warm private hug which lasts all day long. Full of bitter and slightly sweet resins, Ambra Aurea is rich and smoky but still manages to sparkle and shine. You could connect with ancient mediterranean history through it, but I don't feel it as decadent in any way. Has a great longevity but it isn't overwhelming or invasive if you keep up to a couple of sprays. An investment for all true amber lovers.
