Perris Monte Carlo Ambre Gris is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. Ambre Gris opens with Artemisia, settles into a heart of Rose and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Perris Monte Carlo's Ambre Gris carries an Acquired verdict, an amber-led wear.

This amber scent is wildly polarising - a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Some find it a dirty, animalic bomb, others a sophisticated and sensual marvel. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so test it on your skin before committing.

Given its strong projection and lasting power, Ambre Gris is best reserved for romantic evenings or formal affairs, where its intensity can be appreciated. It's too bold and potentially distracting for the office or casual day wear, as many reviews highlight its "beast mode" performance.

About

Ambre Gris opens with a fleeting, sharp herbaceousness from artemisia, quickly giving way to a rich, warm heart of labdanum, amber, and vanilla. A powdery rose and geranium lend a plush, almost vintage make-up feel, while musky and woody undertones of sandalwood and cedar provide depth and a hint of something primal. It settles into a sweet, balsamic warmth, skin-like and deeply sensual.
