Welton London Secret Amber is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2013, created by John-Paul Welton. Secret Amber opens with Rose, settles into a heart of Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Amber, Vanilla, and Clean Musk. Welton London's Secret Amber carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

Secret Amber is a divisive one: some find it a gorgeous, understated amber, others a loud, smothering vanilla bomb. You'll either love this bold, sweet amber or find it completely overwhelming.

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.

Its long-lasting nature and moderate sillage make it a strong contender for dates and evening events, where its bold and sweet character can shine. However, its intensity might be a bit much for a conservative office environment, pulling its score down there.

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

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

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

Opens with a soft, romantic whisper of rose before jasmine weaves into the heart, adding a touch of floral sophistication. The journey culminates in a rich, warm base where creamy vanilla and opulent amber entwine with a clean musk, creating a deep and enveloping sweetness that lingers.
