    Real talk

    Amber in this composition presents itself directly, warm and resinous with a subtle sweetness that invites attention. The quality of the amber accord feels substantial.Amber Essence (2016)
    Ambergris gets misused. Either it's stripped into submission or it becomes a punch in the chest. Orca threads the needle, animalic warmth that's worn close, not broadcast. The honey keeps it human.Orca
