Amber FETISH

It took a few wearings, but I finally "get" AG AMBRE FÉTICHE (Amber Fetish).

This is a dirty amber, with incense, leather & a bit of vanilla. As the strongest fragrance in the Les Orientales line, AF has about the same presence on my skin as AP Strip, which is to say ... ALOT. Definitely unisex, maybe even leaning toward masculine, but it's rare for me find a wearable mass market masculine, so this is a win for me.

When you're in need of a skank fest, look her up.

Amber Incense...

I call this one the "dirty" amber. For me it is a very "real" amber, not a sugary, clean one, not a sweet cloying one. This one is sheer, it's full, and it doesn't hold back. Incredible value for money!

Ambre Fétiche opens up with all the resins you could think of: Benzoin, Styrax, Labdanum... followed by Leather and Incense, with an Amber-Vanilla touch to everything. It is multi-faceted, it can be sweet, it can be dirty, it can be rough, it can be smooth... and as the fragrance progresses, it shows all these different faces. I really admire it. I admire it for it's ability to challenge me and envelop the senses with it's warm, golden aroma. It's very lush, and also at times dry, and at other times sheer.

A note I especially like is the Russian Leather aspect, sort of like the leather you would find in a vintage fragrance. This is leather which has been "cured" with birch tar, but it doesn't overwhelm the fragrance. There is enough sultry Vanilla and Labdanum to keep this from being too mouth-wateringly dry or harsh. This is especially prevalent in the dry-down, which leaves the skin smelling warm, sweet, and dusty, like smooth warm leather dusted with powdered brown sugar. The dry-down is the best here, especially as some might find the opening a bit harsh.

Overall, a wonderful value for money fragrance. Two sprays are enough to last you up to six hours, and on clothes this lasts longer. Sweet, smoky, resinous. For all lovers of (true) amber, you should check this one out. Ambre Fétiche has the ability to smell ancient but modern at the same time. Wonderful stuff!

Rich, ambery goodness

Incense is becoming a real love of mine. The more I experience it in fragrances, the more devoted to it I become.

Ambre Fetiche is all about the incense. Not only is it the scent; it's the ash, the smoke and the stuffiness of it all, brought together in one big bottle of harmonious love.

This fragrance is what I had dreamed Ambre Gris by Balmain to smell like. Rich, vanillary, smokey and exotic. It is becoming rather difficult for me to choose between Myrrhe Ardente and this fragrance as my next purchase.

Please don't expect this fragrance to be shy, Ambre Fetiche is the opposite. It wants to be loud and proud. This fragrance is a real head-turner.

The sillage and lasting strength is absolutely incredible. Whoever said that Annick Goutal fragrances don't last, must be mad. Especially during Winter, this fragrance will last, and last and last.

I would find it incredibly difficult to resist any man wearing this fragrance. Hell, I'd find even it difficult to resist myself if I was wearing it too. I feel like such a bad-girl wearing this, and I must say that I like this new-found me.

Do beware that I am one for strong, bold, in-your-face type fragrances, that are not always to people's tastes. The trick is to avoid overdoing the applications. Regardless of whether or not people like Ambre Fetiche, they will absolutely hate it if you go overboard.

Perfect rich evocative amber

I really love amber perfumes and I own a few of them but Ambre Fetiche is my absolute favorite amber perfume. It is warm, rich, medicinal and incensed amber with a great blend of leather, labdanum and benzoin playing a second role and a grown up vanilla patchouli inclusion in the drydown. I associate this smell with mages of antique wood and leather furniture, rich thick granate and gold thread fabrics and venetian paintings by Veronese and Tintoretto. Like a golden fire light in the dark, like the sun itself in the darkness of the universe. Really evocative and in my case truly uplifting. Perfect for winter early night-long dark days.

Ambre fetiche is quite bold so it is not that easy perfume to use on a daily basis in today's perfume extra ruled and controlled landscape. That makes me crave for it even more.

Perfectly unisex, very long lasting and non linear with a changing evolution of which I enjoy all of its stages. Big sillage, be cautious with the number of sprays.

I really hope this one never disappears, it is a masterpiece.

Amber with a capital A

Ambre Fétiche starts of with a slightly medical/ boozy note. But almost immediately after that the powdery and ambery incense kicks in, followed by the sweetness of vanilla and benzoin with a tad of leather and (almost not noticeable) the flowers. The ambery incense remains throughout the whole life span. The journey ends with a lovely soft and powdery vanilla.

This is a scent for the autumn and winter season. It's the most dark and strong perfume I own. Lasting power is good, on my skin the last trail of the scent is still detectable after at least 8 hours.
