Ambra

A Florentine embrace between warmth and mystery. Launched in 2021 and signed by the nose Paolo Vranjes, Ambra is not just a fragrance, but a sensorial experience that immediately transports you to the historic living rooms of Florence, where fine wood meets the softness of oriental fabrics. This fragrance belongs to the Oriental Unisex group, and stands out for a balanced structure that avoids excessive sweetness, focusing instead on a sophisticated woody depth. Discrete elegance: Unlike many "loud" ambers, Dr. Vranjes's is whispery. It is a fragrance that stands out for its class, not for its intrusiveness. Although amber recalls winter warmth, the presence of geranium and iris makes it wearable even on spring evenings, maintaining a subtle freshness. It's a perfect example of gender balance; patchouli and cedar offer a masculine backbone, while iris and vanilla provide a typically feminine softness. Ambra by Dr. Vranjes is the ideal perfume for those looking for an olfactory "cashmere blanket". It's reassuring, deep and decidedly chic. If you love fragrances that smell of history, ancient resins and precious woods, this creation by Paolo Vranjes deserves a place of honor in your collection.

this is grandsoir mixed with spices about a 40-60 ratio, this is lovely and nice to turn to when i don’t want to wear grand soir. it’s not a dupe but more like a ‘flanker’, i’m a good man but i pray this gets gatekept

For amber lovers, this is a bliss in a bottle. It does resemble GS, but it's a bit more aromatic to my nose. Easy love!

Strong and rather jarring opening. However it develops beautifully. Lovely ambra.

I bought this because I use the diffuser in my house which I just adore so naturally I had to have the perfume. It literally smells like home. It's beautiful and deep and amber-y and cinnamon-y and just gorgeous. A lady came up to me in the street and said I smelled amazing. She was a very classy lady which is exactly what this scent is. Somehow I feel it's more of an autumn/winter scent. It's very comforting. Almost Christmassy. I'm going to work my way through all the Dr Vranjes fragrances because they are all beautiful. One thing I noticed which was kind of weird: the actual spray of perfume (the liquid itself) somehow feels lighter and warmer than other perfumes. I know that sounds strange. Anyhow, it's gorgeous. Easy to wear and smells divine.

Sweet, cinnamon, sometimes almondy, heavy amberwoody but not aggressively rough like so many others, this one smells more natural. Addendum: If I leave this perfume alone for a while, when I next come to spray it, the cap smells of coconut massively and it smells like straight up coconut for a couple of blasts until you some 'fresh' liquid up the tube. Very odd. Does anyone else get this?? Most scents these days say good for 36 months on the label. This one only says 24, for some reason? Mine doesn't smell as strongly as it did when I bought it.

A divine veil of patchouli and amber. Mostly (very) reminiscent of L’Eau de George Sand by Maison Nicolas de Barry, though Ambra is a touch wetter and sweeter, whereas George Sand is more airy, powdery, and refined. There’s some mention of Grand Soir, which I also smell in here - the rum/raisin thing, really. A gorgeous scent and yes it smells cinnamon-y! Similar to the cinnamon Musc Ravageur.

A lovely amber, probably my current favorite. It's got this warm, resinous depth to it, a touch of delicious ambery stank but it's also got this fresh, sparkly nature to it. Not fresh like an aquatic, not rather citrusy either. A faint plum vibe even though it's not listed. Gorgeous and underrated fragrance. Gonna be a winter favorite for me for sure.

These are my secret addiction. Smells like luxury Italian holidays. Clean body, fresh clothes is a must have to wear them, three sprays and you feel classy, rich and beautiful. I was so disappointed when I saw them in shops in my country, I wanted them to only be mine. Best wooden fragrance in performance.

Really bad start but developed into a beautifully blended warm and cosy symphony after a few minutes. Definitely for cold weather, Christmasy and luxurious.

This is an absolute powerhouse. If you're into strong (and I mean singeing your nostril hair-strong) and like sweet amber perfumes, this is your perfume.
