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:

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

Its warm, balsamic nature and moderate projection make it suitable for cooler weather and evening events, including dates. While some find it office-appropriate due to its wearability, its inherent warmth might be too much in very formal or restrictive office settings.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Clove Eugenia Caryophyllus Flower Oil from Clove
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Ambre by Molinard opens with a brisk, almost medicinal blend of lavender and citrus, quickly mellowing into a rich, warm heart of clove and incense. Benzoin and a dry, non-gourmand vanilla emerge in the base, wrapped in a musky patchouli. It's a journey from herbal freshness to a comforting, spiced amber embrace, with a unique balance of notes that keeps it from being overwhelmingly sweet.
