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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its warm, sweet, and moderately strong profile makes it less ideal for the office. However, it's perfect for dates and casual outings, offering a 'cozy but sexy' vibe, especially in cooler weather, as noted by many reviewers. Formal wear is an option, but its sweetness might be overpowering for some.

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.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot

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

Sensual Amber opens with a burst of juicy plum and red fruits, brightened by a hint of bergamot. The heart unfolds with delicate florals like rose and iris, providing a soft, powdery counterpoint before settling into a sumptuous base. Here, a rich, sweet amber melds with creamy vanilla, praline, and a touch of grounding sandalwood and musk, creating a warm, inviting, and slightly gourmand embrace.
