Which Should You Buy?
This one's a divisive beast. If you're into bold, challenging leather scents, you'll probably adore it; a lot of people rave about how unique and elegant it is. But if you're not a fan of that smoky, intense leather note, prepare for an absolute nightmare.
A warm embrace of spice and leather, Ambre Cristal is a sophisticated beast. Its character unfolds with a rich complexity, though some may find its woody dry-down a touch too assertive.
