Ambre Latte

from the very first sniff, I had that familiar feeling of recognising something I'd smelt before. It opens with a creamy almond note, quickly followed by a comforting blend of caramel, tonka bean and vanilla. The overall impression is smooth and milky, but not overly sweet. As it develops on my skin, a prominent musky - woody amber accord begins to emerge, adding depth and warmth to the composition. It was at this point that it clicked for me, Ambre Latte to me is a lighter interpretation of Vanilla Haze Extrait by Fugazzi. Both fragrances share a nutty opening, followed by a rich combination of caramel, vanilla, tonka and musk, although Ambre Latte feels a little airier and less intense. Longevity on my skin is around six hours with moderate sillage. This fragrance will resonate with anyone who likes modern vanilla - amber combination. I genuinely enjoy this fragrance and think it's beautifully composed. However, I won't be purchasing a full bottle, as I already own Vanilla Haze Extrait and the two are really close.

Although I was reminded of a few perfumes I own or have smelt, this one is missing all the harsh and booze notes, and isn’t as overwhelmingingly pungent, and therefore is now the perfect iteration of all those other ones. I can stand any of the other ones about 30 minutes (after just one spray), and become nauseated. This one put a smile on my face every time I got a whiff. I’m so glad I ordered a sample. And I love this house. They use recyclable packaging, refillable bottles, hire amazing perfumers, and don’t charge an arm and a leg. The dry-down is the best of all its cousins. It’s so smooth, warm, cozy. Not all perfumes need to make a statement. What happened to the perfume world that people don’t just want to smell and feel good, and not offend all their seat mates while doing so. If my seat mate smelt like this, I’d definitely ask what they’re wearing. If it was my hubby, I’d want to do other things. But I’m keeping this one for myself.

This fragrance is a mix of bianco latte with a sweet fresh base of akigala wood which to me gives off the same vibe as bois imperial. I don't get any plasticky notes from it (and i get them a bit from bianco latte). It sounds strange but if you like bois imperial and aren't afraid of the sweet notes in the opening, I think you will like this. Ambrofix smells like mold to me in perfumes that are filled with it (like vanilla skin, glosier you etc) and i can pick it up almost instantly. So I was pleasantly surprised that i don't notice it here. Overall it's a new love for me, will be buying a full bottle of this, but judging from the reviews not blind buy safe.

I'm currently testing a sample of this fragrance. Ambre Latte opens with a crisp almond note that is slightly sweet, creamy, and still feels surprisingly fresh. Beneath it lies a comforting blanket of woody notes, making this far from your typical gourmand perfume. Projection is moderate—not too loud, but certainly not a skin scent either. Longevity is excellent on both my skin and clothes. Is it an ultra-special niche fragrance? No. Yet that's not necessarily what I look for in a perfume. To me, Ambre Latte is a true masterpiece: comforting, beautifully blended, incredibly easy to wear, yet still unique. I can't wait to get a full bottle.

I don’t get the hate on this perfume. If you want a lactonic perfume, but want something different than Milk, with some sweetness but not an overly sweet gourmand, this is it. It is realistic and cozy, but to me sexy and mysterious as well. The ambre adds depth, and it is just so pleasant on skin. Better than Milk in my opinion. If you love this, DEFINITELY try to layer it with the Rare beauty Amber Vanilla layering balm. They have a different opening but the dry down is quite similar. They compliment eachother beautifully.
