Francesca Dell'Oro Ambrosine is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013. Ambrosine opens with Orange and Cinnamon, settles into a heart of Rose and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Sandalwood, and Oakmoss. Francesca Dell'Oro's Ambrosine carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This is a polarising amber, rose, and woody scent that evokes vintage glamour. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with some finding its powdery, animalic depth bewitching, while others perceive it as dated and overwhelming. Definitely not a blind buy.

About

Opening with a fizzy hit of orange and warm cinnamon, Ambrosine quickly deepens into a rich heart of powdery rose and jasmine. The base is an enveloping embrace of amber, creamy sandalwood, and earthy oakmoss, softened by musk. It has an almost 'boudoir' feel, with some hints of a playful, almost 'skanky' nuance. It's a warm, sensual journey with a distinctly retro vibe.
