Amber Is Great

Zimaya Amber Is Great is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. The fragrance opens with Citrus, Woody, Cotton Candy, and Saffron, settles into a heart of Herbal, Amber, Lemon, and Orange, and dries down to a base of Spicy, Oakmoss, and Ambergris.

Our verdict on Amber Is Great: Favourite

This one is a divisive amber bomb, a 'love it or hate it' fragrance that punches above its price point. It's often compared to Erba Pura but with its own ambery, woody twist. Expect a potentially harsh opening for some, but a seductive dry down for those who stick with it.

About

Zimaya's Amber Is Great kicks off with a burst of bright citrus and sweet cotton candy, softened by a hint of saffron. The heart develops into a rich, warm amber, underscored by more citrusy facets of lemon and orange, and a touch of herbal greenness. The dry down is deep and sensual, with spicy notes, earthy oakmoss, and a prominent ambergris lending a luxurious, animalic warmth.
