Parfum d'Empire Ambre Russe is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2003, created by Marc-Antoine Corticchiato. Ambre Russe opens with Champagne Rosé and Vodka, settles into a heart of Leather, Birch, Cinnamon, and Coriander, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Incense. Parfum d'Empire's Ambre Russe carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

A boozy, opulent amber that oozes old-world charm. It's a statement piece, but be warned, some find its boozy opening a bit much, making it a love-it-or-loathe-it affair. For those who love it, Ambre Russe is a masterpiece.

About

Ambre Russe plunges headfirst into a rich, boozy embrace of vodka and sparkling champagne, then seamlessly transitions to a decadent heart of spicy cinnamon, aromatic tea, and nuanced leather. The dry down settles into a grand, smoky amber, deepened by incense and a subtle, animalic musk. It's a journey through an opulent scene, from grand toasts to quiet, contemplative moments by a crackling fire.
