    What do reviewers say about Ambra and Opoponax?

    The amber-vanilla Oriental is familiar territory, but Ambra plays it with genuine conviction. The incense-patchouli heart can divide, mildly smoky on some, assertively resinous on others.Ambra
    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
