Sel d'Ambre
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This is a seriously stunning Middle Eastern-inspired rose, deep, jammy, and swathed in rich resins. A love-it-or-hate-it affair for some, but for rose aficionados, its discontinuation was a crime.
This isn't your average syrupy amber; Sel d'Ambre is a divisive, opinionated beast. It's a dry, mineral, and almost austere take on amber that won't be for everyone, but those who love it rave about its unique sophistication and depth.
