Carolina Herrera Amber Desire is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Anne Flipo. Amber Desire opens with Cinnamon, settles into a heart of Date, Rose, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Amber, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Labdanum. Carolina Herrera's Amber Desire carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

A truly gorgeous, luxurious amber, this. However, it's a bit pricey for the performance on offer, and consensus is split on whether the date note is even present.

About

Amber Desire opens with a sophisticated, powdery sweetness, quickly embracing a rich, warm amber heart. The interplay of sticky dates and soft vanilla creates a gourmand edge, beautifully balanced by the classic romance of rose and the subtle spice of cinnamon. Labdanum adds a deep, balsamic resinousness, grounding the fragrance in a luxurious, enveloping warmth that lingers on the skin.
