Profumum Roma Ambra Aurea is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1998. Ambra Aurea settles into a heart of Myrrh and Incense, and dries down to a base of Amber. Profumum Roma's Ambra Aurea carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

This is it - the holy grail of amber fragrances for many. Profumum Roma's Ambra Aurea is a divisive beast, a love-it-or-hate-it scent that commands attention. Expect nothing less than a rich, ancient, and deeply transportive experience, but sample first, because this isn't for the faint of heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

This scent is a powerhouse with formidable longevity and sillage, making it too intense for an office environment and completely unsuitable for sport. Its deep, rich amber and incense profile lends itself well to formal events and intimate dates, while its unique character might be appreciated by an experienced nose in casual settings.

About

Ambra Aurea opens with a powerful, raw burst of deep, resinous amber, almost sticky and warm. As it settles, the ancient, smoky echoes of myrrh and incense emerge, weaving through the dominant amber core. It's a journey into a dark, smouldering intensity, subtly balanced by a whisper of sweetness and a surprising salty, animalic edge that prevents it from becoming overly gourmand. This is a complex, almost primal amber offering, rich and unwavering from opening to close.
