Description & review snapshot

Amber Addiction by Camara Perfumes delivers a bold, resinous aroma built around deep textures and spice.

Reviews →

Kajal Lamar opens with a loud, juicy burst of fresh pineapple and mixed red berries. This tropical sweetness quickly meets a heavy, warm backdrop of cashmere wood and gold amber. It is a bold, sunny perfume designed for individuals who want their scent to make a statement in open air or during warm evening events.
