French Avenue Amber Saffron is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Amber Saffron opens with Citrus, Spicy, Green, and Fruity, settles into a heart of Bergamot, Rose, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Balsam, Woody, Musk, and Amber. French Avenue's Amber Saffron carries an Acquired verdict, a metallic-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Many find it utterly repulsive with its animalic oud opening, while others rave about its unique-niche status and luxury feel, comparing it favourably to much pricier scents. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so sample before you commit.

About

Amber Saffron opens with a bold, complex blast of spicy saffron and invigorating mint, undercut by a metallic edge. A fleeting fruity sweetness and green freshness soon give way to a heart of elegant rose and jasmine. The real show begins in the dry down, where a rich, dark amber and balsamic embrace wraps around a prominent, often polarising, animalic oud and musky wood base.
