In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Vintage'13 is a spice-forward, aromatic woody scent built around clove, black pepper and ginger. A bright bergamot lift leads into thyme and dry woods, with sandalwood, vetiver and amyris smoothing the base. Vanilla sits in the background, more warm glow than dessert sweetness. If you enjoy warm spices that feel clean…

Reviews →

Ambre Royale reads as a dry, earthy amber-wood fragrance with a spicy opening and a green, mossy base. Cinnamon and bergamot add lift early on, then patchouli, amber and oakmoss give it a more textured, classic feel. It looks best suited to shoppers who enjoy aromatic woods over sweet, plush amber styles.
