About amber
Where it comes from
Not fossilised resin, despite the name. Perfumery amber is an accord, traditionally labdanum and vanilla together, sometimes with benzoin.
What it smells like
Warm, resinous and sweet, with a powdery softness. It smells like heat.
How it wears
A base note and a long one. Amber is the reason many oriental fragrances feel heavier in the last hours than in the first.
