Maison Alhambra Narissa Ambre is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022. Narissa Ambre opens with Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Frangipani, settles into a heart of Musk and Amber, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Vanilla, and Cashmeran.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

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:
Spring Fall Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

Its moderate projection and comforting floral-musk profile make it highly versatile for casual wear and dates. While not overly formal, it's generally inoffensive enough for the office, but its warmth means it's less suited for active or high-energy occasions.

Declarable allergens

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

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

Opening with a creamy, exotic bouquet of frangipani, ylang-ylang, and jasmine, this scent quickly settles into a soft, inviting heart of musk and golden amber. The dry down is a comforting embrace of skin-like cashmeran, earthy cedar, and a whisper of sweet vanilla, creating a well-rounded and subtly sensual warmth from start to finish.
