    Real talk

    Warm without getting heavy-handed. That balance is harder to find than houses let on, most oud fragrances lean toward being showy. This one earns its richness through restraint.Ambre Dore
    The sharp opening stops people in their tracks. Nutmeg and thyme, before the warmth kicks in. That's the whole play, bold, herbal, then amber takes over. This isn't another sweet amber.Ambre 114
