What do reviewers say about Opoponax and Ambre Sultan?
Sweet and resinous enough to draw people in, but it stays close to the skin, not a room-filler. If you want a fragrance that whispers and works, this is the one.Opoponax
This is not the amber of amber-filled cookies or syrups. It is raw, resinous, and aggressively warm, with herbal and savory notes that emerge depending on your skin chemistry.Ambre Sultan
