Angela Flanders Ambre Noir is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008. Ambre Noir settles into a heart of Jasmine and Tobacco, and dries down to a base of Amber, Patchouli, Tonka Bean, and Labdanum. Angela Flanders's Ambre Noir carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-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.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

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.
