Christian Lacroix Ambre

I absolutely love this! It initially smells of caramel mixed with citrus which gives it a nice edge. it softens after short while to a lovely smooth, delicious, sexy scent. Makes me feel so good! I adore the bottle too. Longevity is moderate. A great perfume for the winter party season.

I absolutely adored the Absynthe, did not like Amethyst and Rogue at all, and so far I'm loving Ambre, maybe even more than Absynthe, I get a lot of compliments wearing it too. The scent is warm and daring, makes you feel confident wearing it.

So I decided to ask my Avon lady for a brochure and it came with a tester for Ambre!! I was so excited! I tested it on my hand and I got the caramel immediately, no citrus at all, but this might be because I dabbed it from the sample bottle, not sprayed it. I decided I would wear it today from fresh in the morning. So I dabbed it more liberally. Again, sweet, warm, comforting (again, I might be biased here because I love amber an I love Christian Lacroix creations for Avon...) I can't detect my beloved amber well, I guess its there, but it smells more vanilla-y at the moment. I don't think it smells like Clinique Happy which to me is very sharp fresh scent, Ambre is calm, enveloping, cozy... but I do see why for some people is nothing special. I will buy it just because i wan't to collect all these gorgeous bottles, and I want to experiment wearing it in different temperatures. I don't want to give up on it! Edit: Wore it for a few hours and its completely dissappeared. Acyually, it only lasted a couple of hours... undecided about buying it or not...

this is boring cheap scent < too heavy bottle and not in a good way , i think it's bottle is boring too ,the whole theme is boring -_- i hate it when they blend citrus with heavy scent like amber , it become strange and there is no harmony at all , but i will wear it cuz i couldn't throw it back i bought the whole bottle already without testing it cuz i THOUGHT it will be perfect .never mind i can stand it it's not that bad after all , just ordinary cheap perfume :( _longevity & sillage are really weak though it's a lot of money cost! update_ it become nice amber scent with a light whisper of mandarin after hours of spraying it , which made me very happy , at least i can enjoy it after the top notes disappear , it become nice and warm , u could say seductive too..

Just ordered this yesterday and going to receive this on Friday! :) I hope that it will smell as good as the notes sound! Recently started wearing my heavy sugars like Far Away by Avon, Fantasy by Britney Spears and Dynastie by Princesse Marina de Bourbon - you can feel the winter coming! I don't really worry about the sillage and longevity as even being quite new to the fragrance loving world, I've noticed that what lingers on some, doesn't on others and vice versa. Anyways, keeping my fingers crossed!
