  Sounds like florals with oud, capturing that vibe of dried petals mixed with infusions. What really stands out are those ambergris molecules (not sure if synthetic) that I’ve never been able to isolate, but I assume they give Ambre its identity. Sometimes it has that glorious, hay-like luminosity of incense, rising faster thanks to the push of the green notes. But there’s something powdery, a screen, like the glass of a snowball. The theological heights this incense promises turn out to be a model, a diorama that fits in the palm of your hand. It’s the souvenir figurine, surrounded by glitter inside a glass sphere. Here, though, the glass is rough and grayish. That’s how I see Ambre’s musk note: as an enveloping matrix. Like a smoked screen that darkens the sparkle of green-gold flecks of clove and winged cardamom without milk. As it dries, the light fuses with the glass. That celestial diorama of sharp angels like rays of light fades away, too ethereal for this world, leaving only its reflection in the glass, very similar to candle wax, dried petals again, and smoke. Almost creamy, but not because it’s silky—purely due to powdery density.
