Lounge Feeling
For a day like this, when the miserable weather forecast has come true and when there is not much more to do than cozy up at home, Ambre Pamplemousse Rose is not a bad choice.

The scent immediately exudes a warm-spicy aura.

I can detect rum and right after that a slightly bitter citrus freshness, which, as is typical for hesperidic top notes, does not last long but hands the scepter back to this olfactory cuddly blanket that appears caramel-colored to me, which I noticed right at the beginning.
I find the color scheme of the label and the cap of the bottle absolutely fitting for the content.

The fragrance does not really reveal the flowers contained within; instead, it moves somewhere between bright-resinous, amber-woody, and subtly smoky, tobacco-like.
Surely, violets and rose contribute to ensuring that the overall impression does not become too harsh and dark, but remains friendly and cozy.

The individual notes are beautifully and harmoniously intertwined and become quieter towards the end without further transformation.
Despite the not-so-strong scent concentration of a cologne, Ambre Pamplemousse Rose lasts many hours on my skin and once again proves that there are also wonderful, noteworthy fragrances in the lower price ranges.

Sometimes it’s worth bending down!

Completely Surprised
In my circle, it used to be said when something astonished us: I was completely surprised - an expression that amplified the feeling of being surprised even more.

So my friend and I curiously stood in front of the L Atelier des Bois de Grasse shelf and both reached for Amber.
We nodded in unison, as this blend of fine rum ball, refreshed by lemon and grapefruit, immediately appealed to us.
Dark roses bloom amidst a shady patch of violets.
Powdery and velvety, accompanied by sandalwood and amber.
The cedar wafts smoky above it.

A valuable impression - and very exclusive.
In this form, I have never smelled such noble ingredients before.

I am instantly in the mood to buy.
I was truly surprised by the uniquely well-tempered statement of this fragrance.

I look at the price tag - 74.99 euros - that seems fair for a hundred-milliliter bottle.

But the hastily arrived saleswoman corrects my reading ability - the suspected 7 was actually a 1!

Now I was really surprised.

Wind Game with Grasses
"Ambre Pampelmousse Rose" is the name of a fragrance I wasn't familiar with until now. And the fragrance company L'Atelier des Bois de Grasse seems to be new as well. At least it could have emerged from "Jeanne Arthes." Regardless.
The scent is fantastic. A "gentle brute" that has forest and meadow as its theme.
It starts off lightly cool and fruity, then the more robust fragrance notes come to the forefront. A wonderfully resinous-earthy "violet rose" reaches my nose. Not prominent, but clearly perceptible.
The impression of a late summer-autumn meadow appears before my inner eye.
Grass blades and wonderfully golden spikes sway in the fresh wind. The shadows grow longer, heralding the imminent sunset. Moist air creeps in from the brook like the finest mist, enhancing the impression even further.
Was there not a slight chill that I now feel?
A warming jacket would be nice right now.
But the fragrance ensures that I do not start to feel cold.
Warm sandalwood and amber notes drape over my shoulders like a delicate wool blanket. Featherlight, yet warming.
This could last forever while I stand here in the sunset, observing the softly rustling waves of the grasses.....

The combination of amber, grapefruit, and floral accents is something special and quite new, especially since the balance is well maintained. Charming!

A fine sandalwood scent,
which is warm and creamy
at its heart.
A bitter aspect on the edge -
lovely immortelle.

Wow, a Chypre - not sweet, with grapefruit at the top, powdery-resinous-floral heart, and a dry-woody base. All delicately green throughout.

Delicate, ambered clouds float, caress, whisper.
Powdered little lemon in a spiced cloak.
Afternoon hour - very serene.

Bargain alert. It starts finely woody and slightly bitter-fresh, becomes dry-floral and warmer, ending with a soft, non-sticky amber sweetness. H&S good for EdC.

Very nice scent for me, somewhere between Lubin Idole edt, Bentley for Men Intense, Bois de Turquie, and Joop Femme. H&S are okay.
