    What do reviewers say about Amber Wood and Black Horse?

    Spicy, floral, warm. Amber Wood is Ajmal's accessible take on the amber-woody genre. The rose heart is pleasantly soft, and the drydown has genuine staying power.Amber Wood
    Most citrus fragrances play it safe. This one doesn't. The green heart and woody base give it structure, making it less 'first spray on a department store trip' and more 'something you'd reach for.Black Horse
