A Rich Opening
From the very first spritz, Amber Intrigue greets the senses with a striking combination of date accord and olibanum oil. The sweet yet spiced essence of dates adds a sense of warmth, while olibanum (often referred to as frankincense) adds a resinous and slightly woody element, grounding the fragrance. This rich, earthy opening is bold and attention-grabbing, setting the stage for what’s to come.
A Transition to Wood and Spice
As the fragrance develops, it transitions smoothly into a core of sandalwood oil and vetiver oil from Haiti. Sandalwood, known for its smooth and creamy texture, creates a soft, warm heart for the fragrance, while vetiver adds a touch of smoky, earthy freshness. Together, these notes offer a harmony between smooth woods and a slight green edge, giving the fragrance both warmth and intrigue. This heart phase embodies the duality of cool and warm, light and dark, that makes Amber Intrigue a complex and alluring composition.
The Deep Amber Finish
The final phase of Amber Intrigue is where the scent’s namesake truly shines. Amber accord and labdanum form the base of the fragrance, creating a rich, enveloping warmth that lingers long on the skin. Amber brings an intoxicating sweetness, while labdanum adds a leathery, resinous depth that makes the fragrance deeply sensual and lasting. This base lingers, offering a luxurious finish to the scent’s evolving character.
