Davidoff Amber Blend

Davidoff Amber Blend is in the same vein as the other members of the collection that I've tried, Leather Blend and Agar Blend, but with a fitting emphasis on the eponymous note of amber. It's amber-intensive but very spicy as well, no doubt due to the inclusion of cinnamon, though the rum accord is sharp, as well, to my nose, the primary sweetness, then, coming from the resins themselves. With the rum and cinnamon both in the mix, Amber Blend comes off a bit sharp, surely on the sharper side of sweet amber fragrances that I've tried. It's sweet, yes, but emphatically, practically overwhelmingly spicy. One needs to like the rum and cinnamon just as much as the amber to appreciate the whole blend. Surely that could've been the intention in its composition, though, a relatively acerbic offering to the comparatively smoother Agar and especially Leather Blends. Its performance is great, like Leather and Agar; it's a dense, cold-weather-leaning option. Found at the right price, a bottle (standard size of 100ml) could be a nice acquisition that would ostensibly last a user a while. It appears to never have been made available in US markets and is only sold in the Middle East, so acquiring it in the states seems to be a matter of using a secondary market or intermediary. Amber Blend is bold, well-done, and enjoyable, but is edged but out Agar Blend and especially Leather Blend. 8 out of 10

Amber, amber, amber! Amber Blend is absolutely true to its name. It smells like an almost unadulterated amber. Amber, as a note, is basically a vanillic, woody, rich smell. It doesn't exist as a natural material, unlike ambergris which is a whale secretion & gets confused a lot with amber. In Amber Blend you get what you are promised. Soft, woody, rich, mildly sweet amber. The amber facet is further enhanced by another ambery note in rum. And then it is spiced up with cinnamon. A soft, ambery, rich, woody, sweet, spicy scent. It has that Arabic theme to it. The Blend line has surly delivered with Leather Blend & Amber Blend. You can find them very affordable at discounters (~$45) & they are really worth the money. I would classify Blend line among the affordable niche-like class that people usually hunt for, that is headed by Bentley's Intense for men & Lalique's Encre Noire. A mature, cool weather, formal wear. Suits both genders, but leans a bit masculine. Amber Blend gets a "Love"

I love it! One of my favorite Amber frags. Amber Blend definitely carries the DNA from the Davidoff Blend line but is significantly different from the Leather and Agar Blend. This resinous beauty is driven by the Amber and Peru Balsam. I adore the spicy opening where Cinnamon seems to lead the way. It contains an underlying sweetness most probably derived from the rum undertone with a smoothness through the drydown from the background Sandalwood. Logevity and projection are above average with a good 3-4 hr push and another 4 hrs of solid performance. I own Leather Blend and find this much more resinous and detect no leather or oud in this frag. I'm thrilled to own this and put this in my top 10 of Autumn fragrances. PS. I purchased this from Fragrancenet so this juice has finally found its way to discounters and US markets!

TL;DR: Sweet, spicy amber with good performance. Similar to Leather Blend, as others have noted. As if Davidoff substituted the leather in Leather Blend with amber & called it "Amber Blend". Chance are you will like this one if you liked Leather Blend. The scent: starts with a blast of spicy sweetness. The sweetness dials down rapidly to reveal the powdery amber in the core but it never disappears. It remains like that, sweet spicy amber, for the rest of its life. Quite a lovely spicy combination. The performance: as with the rest of Davidoff's Blend collection, very good sillage & longevity wise. In short, a niche-quality amber release from Davidoff. PS: respect to Davidoff for releasing a niche private collection at a somewhat an affordable price. Unlike Armani, Bvlgari...etc.

I've received this as a gift, and I love it! It is a beautiful amber, quite spicy and smoky, very smooth and appealing. It is very very comfortable, the sillage is nice - just around me a few feet, and lovely enough to have received many compliments from people a few feet away, and it lasts extremely well..well into the evening from early in the morning. Really lovely - I suppose it's on the masculine side, but it really suits me. Definitely up with my favourites. It gives me a feeling of strength and courage to go for it! My husband loves it too, and it smells quite a lot more spicy and boozy on him. On me it's more smoky, with a very smooth cinnamon and sandalwood. Beautiful dry-down, soft, yet lovely and rich. Definitely gorgeous!

A good friend gave me a decant of this years ago. I have 5 cigar boxes full of decants that I've picked up along the years and always try to spray something in the morning I haven't given much wear. Every time I come across this decant, I spray it because it's so damn luxurious. It reminds me a bit of Robert Graham Fortitude but a little darker/resinous and a tad longer lasting. The resin/amber/spices are blended to perfection. I hate myself for not picking up a bottle when it could still be found. I need to do a deeper dive to find a bottle because this is absolutely amazing. Cheers!

Tried it last week in Dubai Mall. It's a nice smoky well done amber with a hint of spiciness on top. Performance and sillage is in the average range but it's a good intriguing fragrance. This will fall behind Leather Blend but definitely better than Agar Blend. Good attempt by the house considering the number of amber based perfumes from each and every house. It will not blow you away but it will definitely try to entertain you. It leans more towards masculine side but a woman with an attitude can pull this off.

Amber Blend is an elegant and beautiful scent to my nose. A dense, rich, resinous, and luxurious amber. Although amber is featured, is does not dominate the stage. Instead, spice, woods, and a touch of booziness all join in and add to the splendor of the fragrance. I get great projection and longevity on my skin. AB is very much a unisex fragrance, however, I find it leans a bit to the masculine side. AB works in either formal or casual attire. This one is worth a sample.

Less than $60 on the discount sites I'm sure that more folks will blind buy this gem. Don't get fooled by the amber name. It does have amber but this is more on the boozy and spicy side rather than the powdery amber than most are used to. This smells like some very high end stuff but at the fraction of the cost. Diehard amber fans won't enjoy this too much but if you are looking for a long lasting,elegant scent with the right amount of sillage then this is it.

My first bottle from davidoff blend collection. As others reviewer said, it surely resinous, ambery, and spicy. I also found a hint of sweetness comming from nutmeg, not overly sweet but something that made the composition well balanced together. For the lover of resinous fragrance this one definitely must have imho. Dont wait until this been discontinued and the price amped up. 10/10

Amber is one of my fave notes in fragrance and this one is such a comforting amber scent. Perfect for stay at home weekend, me time, and fully rest. An amber woody slightly spicy and boozy creation from Olivier Pescheux; with cinnamon, nutmeg, rum, peru balsam, and creamy sandalwood. The Blend Collection is worth to hunt because now it's so rare to be found.

I just got my bottle a couple of days ago and it smells amazing, but it does remind me of Calvin Klein One Shock. Let's just say, this is the niche version of CK One Shock. It's smooth and the blend of notes is simply stunning. It's a linear fragrance though.

Oh what a beauty! Niche luxury smell in a designer price! David has just effed Off the entire industry with this one! I just sprayed once on my hand and now I want to eat my hand! Beware! This fragrance has the power to turn you into a potential cannibal!

I regret selling my backup bottle. Now it is a rarity. Even at the hiked-up price, this is still worth it. It is a more wearable version of Myrrthe Imperiale. This is worth a blind buy. You will experience all the notes in a wonderous blend.

Great blend, I can smell all listed notes, all done just right! Good for amber beginners too as this is not just amber but a combination of amber with spicy-sweet-boozy combo. Must try!!!

Stunning beautiful aromatic warm resinous woody scent with cinnamon. Strong projection and sillage. Last for 2 days. I give it 4.5/5.0.

The notes are very different, but overall this gives me the same feel as M7 by Yves Saint Laurent with the difference being the Oud.

One of the best amber scents I've ever smelled. It is so groundbreakingly luxurious and lasts for a super long time on my skin.

Wow it smell soo good with beast mode projection , ambry boozy with rum it’s delicious , nich quality 9.5/10

the whole line is a gem....in short.gotta own all three...davidoff thank you :)
