Guerlain Ambre Samar is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Delphine Jelk. Ambre Samar opens with Cardamom, Almond, and Frankincense, settles into a heart of Davana and Amber, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Tonka Bean, and Benzoin. Guerlain's Ambre Samar carries an Acquired verdict, an amber-led wear.

Ambre Samar is a polarising beast. For some, it's a sublime, spicy amber, a true masterpiece of warmth and sophistication. For others, it's a generic mess, a cloying Christmas candle, or just too much. Definitely try before you buy this intense Guerlain offering.

About

Ambre Samar opens with a potent blast of warm, spicy cardamom, intertwined with a nutty almond and ethereal frankincense. As it settles, a rich, resinous amber heart emerges, deepened by the fruity subtlety of davana. The dry down is a comforting, balsamic embrace of creamy benzoin and tonka bean, grounded by a hint of earthy patchouli. It’s a dense, opulent amber fragrance with significant character.
