In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Numero 2 by Posh Extrait hits the air with a bright flash of grated lemon peel and juicy mandarin. That sunny citrus quickly meets an unexpected dark center. Freshly roasted coffee beans mingle with creamy jasmine petals and a cool, powdery iris root that keeps the sweetness grounded. As the perfume warms on your skin…

Reviews →

Laboratorio Olfattivo Amberbomb punches through the air with a bold opening of dark coffee and tart plum. As the initial sweetness recedes, heavy leather and smoky cypriol oil take over the dry-down. Soft touches of vanilla and tonka bean smooth out the base, keeping the profile grounded for cold winter wear.
