100BON Ambre & Tonka is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Céline Ellena. Ambre & Tonka opens with Mandarin, settles into a heart of Geranium and Labdanum, and dries down to a base of Vanilla and Tonka Bean. 100BON's Ambre & Tonka carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a divisive gourmand. Some reckon it's a luscious vanilla bomb that fills a room, a cozy, non-obvious treat. Others find it a strange, almost sweaty blend of citrus and labdanum that's simply unusable. Definitely not a safe blind buy.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its strong projection and sweet, warm accords make it less suitable for office environments, as it can be overwhelming. However, its sensual and cozy nature is perfect for date nights and evening casual wear. While it has a touch of elegance, its gourmand sweetness might be too informal for truly strict formal events.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Ambre & Tonka opens with a fleeting zest of mandarin before diving into a thick, sweet heart of labdanum, providing a resinous depth, subtly roughened by geranium. The dry down is a full-bodied, warm embrace of vanilla and tonka bean, creating a rich, almost caramel-like gourmand experience. It's a sweet, aromatic journey with an underlying balsamic warmth.
