Angela Flanders Ambre Noir is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008. Ambre Noir opens with Tobacco, settles into a heart of Spicy, and dries down to a base of Amber and Incense. Angela Flanders's Ambre Noir carries an Acquired verdict, a tobacco-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Some find it a richly complex amber with serious longevity, while others are put off by a 'skanky' animalic undertone. Definitely not a blind buy unless you like a gamble.

About

Amber Noir opens with a bold, almost rugged amber, deeply intertwined with the smoky, earthy scent of pipe tobacco. Hints of warm, exotic spices and a subtle sweetness from a whisky accord weave through, creating a rich, opulent, and slightly boozy tapestry. It’s a journey from a raw, intense beginning to a more mellow, lingering amber dry-down.
