What do reviewers say about Ambre Gris and Ambre Chromatique?
This is ambergris done the old way. No ozone, no aquatic trick. Just the waxy, slightly animalic sweetness of the real thing, cushioned by powder and vanilla.Ambre Gris
Ambre Chromatique isn't trying to win you over in the first spray. It's the kind of amber that earns its space on your skin over hours, shifting from smoke to sweetness without ever losing its nerve.Ambre Chromatique
