Earthy Essential Oil Blend
Red Flower AMBRETTE perfume oil (the roll-on) smells initially a lot like dirty geranium essential oil to me. As the composition develops, the geranium fades to some extent and the ambrette and incense and other elements begin to assert themselves. There is always a dark, dirty facet, and, to be honest, I initially thought that the oil might have turned slightly rancid. However, by the drydown AMBRETTE smells very nice. Still, in spite of its name, AMBRETTE is much less of an ambrette perfume than is Bond no 9 HARRODS ROSE.
I find that there is a sort of "homemade" feeling to this creation, as though someone mixed together organic, all-natural essential oils rather than composing a perfume in the usual way. The end result is fairly green and earthy, with something of a hippy vibe, it seems to me. AMBRETTE would perhaps be too earthy for me to wear as a perfume to go out in, but it is enjoyable around the house. Unfortunately, the longevity is not very good on my skin, despite the oil medium.
