What do reviewers say about Amber Sky and Amber Star?
Amber that broke from convention. This one adds coriander's snap and nutmeg's clean heat, and suddenly it becomes something worth arguing about. The combination transforms what could be predictable.Amber Sky
Amber Star is not a safe blind buy. The smoky guaiac wood and resinous myrrh in the heart are divisive, and the drydown, while gorgeous, requires patience.Amber Star
