Rive d’Ambre

by Olivier Gillotin

Tom Ford Rive d’Ambre is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Olivier Gillotin. Rive d’Ambre settles into a heart of Tolu Balsam, Bitter Orange, Tarragon, and Lemon. Tom Ford's Rive d’Ambre carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

A truly gorgeous Tom Ford Private Blend that is unfortunately plagued by woeful longevity, leaving fans clamouring for a re-release with improved performance. The scent itself is a masterclass in citrus, a bright, effervescent dream.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its bright, fresh, and subtle character makes it ideal for office wear and casual settings, as it's unlikely to offend. The poor longevity and projection mean it's less suited for formal events or dates where a more impactful presence is desired, though its clean nature works well for light sporting activities.

About

Rive d'Ambre bursts open with an invigorating, almost fizzy array of citruses, led by sparkling lemon and bitter orange. Herbal notes of tarragon and a hint of mint provide a fresh, aromatic counterpoint, while a subtle whisper of cardamom and cognac adds sophisticated warmth. The famed amber provides a creamy, barely-there base, grounding the vibrant top notes without ever becoming heavy.
