What do reviewers say about Ambre Sultan and Pure Incense?
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
Natural resins and incense come together in a blend that smells like a temple at dusk, sacred smoke, not showmanship. The darkness of the opening gives way to something cleaner, warmer.Pure Incense
