What do reviewers say about Ambre Sultan and Bourbon Vanilla?
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
Bourbon Vanilla doesn't play coy. It opens with a saffron-amber punch that reads almost animal-spicy, then waits for you to catch up. Where many vanilla-forward fragrances ease in gently.Bourbon Vanilla
