By the editors · 2 min readAmber-Wood opens with an unusual collision: crisp apple meets aromatic lavender, sharpened by cardamom's green spice. It's brighter than the name suggests, almost herbal in those first minutes, before the structure begins to settle and warm.
The heart brings orris and cedar together in a way that feels both powdery and dry, like pressed wood shavings dusted with iris root. This middle phase is where the composition finds its footing, trading that initial freshness for something more grounded and textural.
In the base, amber and patchouli create the promised warmth—resinous, slightly earthy, with enough sweetness to smooth the woods without turning syrupy. This is an approachable oriental that doesn't demand much from the wearer: easy to wear, reliable in its arc from fresh to warm, suited to anyone looking for something versatile that leans woody-ambery without heavy drama.
