Ambar

Ambar (not only) for women It's light and subtle almost like a cologne but, nevetheless, it's very addictive. Use it with the spring and fall mild temperatures, as well on summer nights. The scent lingers lightly in the air around you . It's an agreable and easy to wear fragrance that will never offend anybody. The bottle is very preety, with an almost opaque ambery golden colour. It also stands out in any shelf. The evolution starts with some citrus and heavy mandarin, followed by dark green tea (together with an alluring peony note) and finishing with amber and cedar. Quite enjoyable and definitely a unisex scent. It's not to a compliment gather, but ment for you to enjoy it on your own, preferable at leisure. It's a perfect non intrusive office scent. It has got an inviting price, just like a cologne, making it easy for you to respray at your will. Let's check the math for Jesus de Pozo Amber: - Scent opening: 8.5 - Scent drydown: 7.5 (drydown nice but weak) - Longevity: 7.0 (up to 5 hours - 3 sprays) - Sillage: 6.0 (up to an arm lenght with almost 1,5 hours of weak projection - 3 sprays) - Uniqueness: 8.5 (unique with its freshness for an amber scent) - Versatility: 9.0 (Use it almost everywhere although not the best choice for a night out or clubbing; fantastic for the office) - Wearability: 7.0 (Use it Spring, Fall and Summer nights). - Compliments: 5.0 (never offensive, agreable but not enough for compliments) - Quality: 8.0 (a bit synthetic; good quality flask and sprayer) - Presentation: 9.0 (quite nice) - Price: 10.0 (100 ml non tester for 10 Euros) Average: 7.77 / 10.00 - between 7 and 8 = above average; - between 8 and 9 = recomended; - bigger than 9 = don't miss it; Advice: For the price I paid, you can easily blind buy it! You may leave it in the toilets counter for a fresh amber after shower, or in the office for an easy respray. Music: Salvador Sobral: "Amar pelos dois"

Starts off with blurry, non-astringent citrus that persists for several hours. Beneath that, I can isolate what must be the amber accord (a synthesized, fictional accord, as true amber from prehistoric resin has no smell). It is exotic, slightly woody and resinous, non-vanilla, and there is a similar facet to Sarah Jessica Parker’s “Twilight”, although Twilight and Ambar have a radically different effect. If I spray Ambar (I love that name!) on before bedtime, by morning it has become a pleasant and rather unisex skin-scent, the citrus and amber melded into one. I still have to road-test it in tropical heat, but in winter in northern Europe, the scent so far has been dry (non-sweet), non-floral, unobtrusive, the perfect backdrop for, say, writing a thesis. The scent goes fast, since I need two or three sprays to really feel its presence. The bottle, full or otherwise, is a true gem, and suggests something far more medieval or mystical than the scent itself.

Just bought this blind in my quest for a spicy winter perfume and I was not disappointed at all. Lovely bottle and packaging and a very reasonable price, less than 8GBP for 30ml. At first spray it smells a bit like Cointreau, then the gentle spices kick in. My first thought was "Wow, you can tell this is Spanish" but to be honest, I don't know what "Spanish" should smell like. Maybe it was the tart orange opening scent. You can smell Cardoman, oranges, a whisper of vanilla (just enough to warm it up) and a warm finish. There is amber, spices and oranges. It smells very clean and fresh and wouldn't smell out of place on a man either. It was just what I was hoping for and since I bought it online and don't live near masses of perfume shops, I am pretty sure I will smell unique too. Excellent all round!

I wanted to smell this after buying it blind, but was already wearing scent. I sprayed it on a tissue and was greeted by the most pleasant and unexpected surprise: the sharp, soapy, floral scent of my grandmother's powder room in the 80s, when I was a little girl. I am certain that Ambar will develop differently on my skin than on tissue, but for this little bit of memory alone the purchase was worth it. I can't wait to spray this on a tissue for my mother and see her delight as she recognizes it, too. More later, when I've worn it... UPDATE: On my skin, Ambar is a very light, powdery fragrance. Amber is present, but subtly blended into a lovely mix of orange, flowers, and mild, herbal woods. It's airy, feminine, delicate, and quite lovely.

What a stunning perfume... I brought this blind (after swearing I would never blind buy again after a couple of bad purchases) but glad I ignored the inner me. Some reviews say this is a fresh scent not on me, I found it to be a warm scent very unique and very classy, this reminded me a little of the Armani Elle (grey version) which I wore several years ago. So beautiful on me that I will wear this for special occasions, evenings out etc as too beautiful as an 'every day' perfume. Sprayed on my wrist in the morning could still smell 4-6 hours later So taken with this little beauty that have already ordered another large bottle, think I may have just found my new signature scent :)

I'm wearing it now, and it's really a mild spicy floral. Really inoffensive, can't see anyone scrunching ching their nose at this one. It's also pretty similar to Felicity by Oriflame. However, Felicity is sweeter and more vanilla based, and as such better suited to winter, at least for the winter we experience in India. Amber lover's at the beginner level (like me :)) can surely give this one a try! Update - This is just Gorgeous in hot weather! Clean, fresh, calming and somewhat sexy too! With lasting power to boot!

I blindly ordered Ambar and kept my fingers crossed. I mean, Marie Salamange and Jesus Del Pozo sounded like a good mix to me, especially that I adored both Duende and Esencia de Duende by this house. It arrived today and, oh my! It did not disappoint. It's giving Esencia de Duende vibes and I couldn't be happier. I agree with everyone who said that the name doesn't quite fit the juice because it really is more like a citrusy tea. Fresh, delicate and simply beautiful.

A lovely close to skin fragrance, w/o the yucky musk so common in the "your skin but better" scents. Soft, refreshing, pretty, light, clean, and/but cozy/comforting. Has a nice warmth too. Fine all year, any time of day. Easy reach. Well-blended. Delightfully affordable, smells like a far more expensive fragrance. Another Marie Salamagne winner.

This is a very soothing fragrance. I boughht it blind and like it a lot! It is a bit soapy on my skin, fresh, very clean and elegant. Not offensive at all. Unfortunately needs to be re-applied often. But love it! Edit: i could still smell it on my scarf after a couple of days and it reminded me of Jasmin Noir. The amber, fantastic...

My number one for +/-10 years now. I don't ware it daily, I keep it for "special" occasions, as it makes me feel super sexy - in a mature way sexy: not sweet, girly, but like fully confident of herself woman :-) Deep red lipstick, high heels, the unobvious Ambar smell... you get the picture :-)

This is very Prada-ish. To me it smells like a mixture of Prada Iris and Prada Amber. I like both, so this is a winner for me. The bottle is pretty and unique. It's suppose to symbolise amber stone. I like the paperboard box too, creative idea. Very nice surprise, go get it! :)

This is citrusy and shower fresh in the beginning. You get a feeling on squeaky clean skin. Soon it warms up and turns to ambery soft goodness. IMO one of the rare ambers that can be used in summer heat too. Great everyday scent and perfect for office and casual wear.

This is a very nice one for everyday use. Fresh and oriental at the same time. There is not much of sweetness - good for office. It's also easy to bear - I can spray this three or four times a day and it still feels good and comfortable.

ottimo ed economico. si apre con note agrumate per assestarsi su ambra e cardamomo. i sentori di fondo sono arricchiti di legno di cedro e iris.

This a new fragrance from JDP.The bottle is beatiful and everithyng is linked to Ambar as color shape and smell.Congratulations for JDP:

It's light and subtle but, nevetheless, very addictive either when used with mild weather or during summer nights

great tea with spices scent the name is misleading but the more i wear it the more i like it

This fragrance has been described as citrusy and when I first sniffed the bottle I could really smell the citrus notes but once I sprayed it on me, the cardamom really tames the opening citrus notes and seconds into spraying this on my skin it takes on a very spicy exotic sweetness. Although there is no vanilla in the notes listed, I can definitely smell the faint scent of vanilla that seems to pull and blend the different notes into a creamy yummy concoction. Despite its name, amber is not a dominant note in this composition, at least not on my skin. There is just enough of it to warm it up but this is really a spicy, sweet and very exotic scent. As the fragrance starts to dry down the floral notes start to develop, giving it yet another layer and making it even more beautiful. This fragrance is multifaceted, very unique and very sweet but not in a “bubblegum” way, more like an exotic desert or pudding served during Diwali. Like an Indian bride, in a colourful flowing sari and dripping in sparkling gold, this fragrance is stunning. Very respectable silage and lasts a good 6-7 hours on my skin. EDIT: I don't know what happened but the longevity of this fragrance has dwindled on me. When I initially sprayed this the first time (from a tester) it lasted for hours and now that I have purchased a full bottle, I spray it on and it's gone in a couple of hours. I need to keep rapplying. At first I thought it was a fluke but after wearing this fragrance for several days I have decided that the concentration in the tester is NOT that which is in retail sale bottle. I'm gutted! Will not repurchase this again.

I agree with Nikkafragrance, this is a fairly masculine scent. Initially I get a blast of mandarin and cardamom, very soapy and sharp. After a few minutes the cedar, tea notes and bergamot begin to show up. Eventually the iris and amber make an appearance, and the peony only comes out on my skin type after about 6 hours. I'm quite fond of the final effect, a soft, warm, soapy, slightly sweet scent. However, I do wish that there were more peony in Ambar. It's a good intensity for the office, but just too masculine on me without adjustment. I find that pairing this with a vanilla infused moisturizer brings out the best in the scent, toning down the soapiness, and bringing out the spiciness of the florals. A good staple for office wear. I think this would be a terrific scent for a man, and it reminds me quite a lot of CK One, which is unisex. If you are not comfortable with very soapy perfumes, don't blind buy this- but if you do like very herby green scents, this may be right for you. EDIT: In warmer and more humid weather, Ambar loses that masculine oakmossy edge on my skin, and instead develops something I can only describe as a deep purple plush tone...a really fascinating contrast to the bright clear amber intro. Very sultry, almost plummy, but not sweet. Just deep, dark, and very intriguing. Kinda like the shadow that emphasizes the light...

Ambar is now on the stores and yesterday I was able to try it. And it's a gorgeous scent! It opens very citrusy, very fresh bergamot and tangerine I guess, but not a synthetic citrus. No. A natural citrusy sparkling feeling that made me wanna purchase it right away! Then, it slowly calms and settled down to a blooming bouquet of peonies with an ambery feeling, but still it has that citrusy note that doesn't entirely fade away and remains for a long time. At this time, I was adoring the scent because is fresh but ambery and soothing. Very well blended, very well balanced... a perfect Fall scent! Then, in the base, I can still feel that ambery feeling, the citrus are gonne and I was left with a blend of iris and woods that instantly remind me of Prada Infusion d'Iris. Though, Ambar is a great scent. It's modern, uplifting, with character, it does have an ambery aspect to it (although not as much as some might expect because of it's name). It's young and vibrant and I recommend it!=) The sillage is OK and the lasting power is good for an EDT. Another remark: as all Jésus del Pozo fragrances, Ambar is very affordable (a bottle of 100ml can be purchased for 36.50€). So try it! You won't regret it!=)
