Ambre Premier

I decided to seek-out more AFFORDABLE alternatives to Profumum Roma "Ambra Aurea," which I owned and love. But Profumum Roma fragrances only come in 100ml bottles. And the liquid in my last expensive Ambra Aurea bottle turned thick, dark, very oily and super-resinous towards its end. For many reasons, I cannot blow-through a 100ml bottle of Ambra Aurea... But I CAN blow through a 100ml bottle of "Ambre Premiere." To me, Ambre Premier is beautiful, it truly is. Ambre Premier is a very straightforward, rather linear, amber perfume with vanilla. The fragrance's opening is a lovely burst of beautiful amber with LOTS of vanilla. There's a wee-bit of citrus in the opening that dissipates. The drydown is a heavenly blend of amber, vanilla, DEFINITELY rose and patchouli. Becomes noticeably spicier and slightly powdery in the drydown, as well. Ambre Premiere is one of the most feminine-leaning, comforting, amber perfumes I've owned, or experienced. As a side note, I sampled Ambre Premiere about 13 years back, shortly after its launch. I liked it then; I adore it now! LOVE all the way! It's a keeper.

In my opinion it is perfectly unisex perfume. Those into amber type perfumes, regardless of gender, would love it. On my skin I don't have any citruses at all at any point and it stay linear and barely changes after first 2 minutes. I would say it is 50% amber, 25% patchouli, and other 25% equally shared between rose, spices and vanilla. The only difference between opening and drydown is vanilla becomes a bit more evident as it progresses and spices and rose disappear almost completely in last 4 hours. On my skin it lasts 8-12 hours in Fall and Spring, but only 5-6 hours in Winter (since I don't wear any lotions or oils). Sillage and projection drops in Winter too unless I use twice more than in Fall-Spring. It lacks originality, but is safe blind buy. Don't see how anyone would hate it or be irritated by it. In worst case scenario it would be indifference. Very suitable for office use in colder months. Scent 9/10 Originality 5/10 Longevity 8/10 Projection 7/10 Sillage 6/10

Ambre Premier by Jovoy Paris what to say !? Pure magic for my sense of smell. Divine blend of excellent caliber. In the opening notes a masterful minuet between light citrus chords and warm épices notes, in the dry a symphonic heart of rose emerges which is sealed with a dry down that magically catapults into the east; the empire of the senses ... an erotic elixir, very luxurious, where the sweetness of vanilla is expertly blended with the mysticism of amber, a sublime rarity, which time makes powdery and impalpable. Sensory experience that I invite to try for all amber lovers. Pure orgasm. Surprising sillage, amber and warm spicy. The duration for me is infinite. Absolute love.

From the notes and my nose, this seems like another boring amber perfume that is a weak skin scent after half hour, and it’s been done by tons of other perfumers. I have decants all over the place of these same kinds of weak boring amber perfumes. Dont get me wrong it’s still a very nice scent, just that it’s been done before. I like Jovoy, some of my most beloved perfumes come from Jovoy, but they also have put out a bunch of duds, imho . This one being one of them. I’m disappointed, I expected so much more from Jovoy. I love amber scents and am always looking for a best mode Amber, patchouli, rose, musk perfume. Til then I will have to use up the decants I have.

Elegant amber with herbaceous (slightly medicinal) opening and beautiful soft vanilla in the base. It’s very well balanced. Of course, it’s strong, but it’s not in-your-face type of fragrance. It has a round patchouli that is hard to find. Lovely! Ps: for me it’s better than Ambre 114, because geranium in there is giving off a barbershop type of vibe. Follow me on IG: scent.guide

A beautiful, full bodied amber. I also own the Elie Saab Amber (voted most similar) and that amber is sweeter, with more vanilla and fades fairly quickly. I think there’s a higher concentration of oils in the Jovoy. I do love this beautiful aroma- spicy and smooth. There’s just a touch of vanilla. Bottle is going on my buy list. I wish Jovoy made 30ml size!

Warm spicy amber with floral aspects. Vanilla comes around in dry down and stays through... A little bit citruss at the begining and fades away quickly. The whole thing is cozy yet spicy and chic.on the righte skin could be so femminen and has the potency to be edgy Great lasting and beautibful presentation. Recommended to patchouli and amber lovers.

Ambre Premier is a rich, golden embrace of warm amber wrapped in spiced candied orange, A hint of rose softens the edges before settling into a sensual base of musk, vanilla, and patchouli. Sweet yet sophisticated, it lingers like a sun-drenched memory, both comforting and bold. I love it as a bedtime scent on a cold night, it is warming and cozy.

This is great. I know they are not similar, but this is somewhat what i wished/expected Grand Soir to smell like. Candied citrus, vanilla, and patchouli make beautiful combo. I also get the bubblegum others were talking about, but only if i am really looking for it. Unfortunately, performance is just okay for me.

One of the best amber fragances that i have been tried recently. To sweet and depth. More fresh and less incensey than Ambre Fetiche, for example (I love Ambre Fetiche too). Longevity is only decent (no more than 5-6 hours) and sillage is moderate-low. scent: 7/10 longevity: 7/10 sillage: 6/10

Unlike other amber-oriented scents I've tried, Ambre Premier is quite delicate. The amber here is like a powdery bubblegum. A nutty, starchy vanilla and clean patchouli complement this fruity amber. Animalic labdanum, pierces through the layers to give this fragrance a more formal edge.

Just sprayed my free sample on my girlfriend and sent her off to a party. She has a cold and can't smell too well, but she likes amber and she likes this. I fairly well doused her in it. So I'll see how she fares...

Gorgeous amber and natural vanilla ala Pierre Guillaume Felanilla and Ex Idolo Love and Crime. Great performance as expected from Jovoy.

A really quality vanilla, spicy amber! It's not very complecated but if you like amber you will like this.

A "grown up" amber perfume. Great drydown. I like it even more than I did initially.

...Barely noticeable after two hours. That's not so good.

Citrusy and Rosy Amber Dirtied w/ Patchouli... When I sprayed Jovoy AP for the first time I though I had sprayed myself with Jovoy Psychedelique by mistake. I had to look at the bottles to make sure I had not switched them. But I didn't. Then of course, after some minutes I started to notice the differences. The reason for thinking I had made a mistake is that AP, like Psychedelique , is an amber and patchouli fragrance. Also, they both have rose, vanilla, and musk as ingredients. However, the big difference between the 2 is that naturally amber is the main star of AP while patchouli is the main star of Psychedelique, which is why AP feels sweeter. AP also differentiates itself in the opening by having citrus notes, more notably orange, and having a little pinch of spice accompanying it. Just initially, at the opening, the rose is a little more noticeable in AP than in Psychedelique. During the dry down I notice little difference between AP and Psychedelique ...the both exude this ambery-patchoulic-vanillic-musky drydown...one in which AP's version perhaps is a tad sweeter and softer. So, if you want to feel more patchouli (smokier, woodier, denser), go w/ Psychedelique; if you want to feel more amber (sweeter, lighter, citrusy), go w/ AP. Not matter what, you will get a degree of that delicious amber-patchouli vibe. AP is totally unisex. I disagree w/ Fragrantica's classifying AP as a woman's fragrance. AP is very elegant, attractive, pleasantly and moderately sweet without being cloying...very wearable and easy going...I like this amber fragrance...

I love surprises and this was the biggest for me in my October 2017 Fumerie sample pack, which had an exceptional selection and I recommend highly. At first sniff, woah, alcohol! Then, a lovely orange citrus takes over. It slowly shifts into a salty-sweet profile with just a bit of coastal air freshness. The orange mostly fades as a warmth moves in and begins to remind me of sea salt caramels. For a few hours after the opening, it settles into a slightly sweet, deep, and creamy amber with a lovely, powdery vanilla cloud. A subtle rose takes the final bow. I love ambergris based fragrances, but had completely overlooked Jovoy. Although I am enjoying the sample, I have far too many amber fragrances to run and buy a full bottle. It is Autumn now, but I will definitely be trying this in warmer weather as an alternative to some of my spicier ambers.

Ambre Premier is a nice, easygoing amber with a sweet twist. It kicks off with that classic warm, spicy amber vibe, but pretty quickly a rose note joins in. It doesn’t smell like a fresh, natural rose—more like rosewater, the kind you’d find in Turkish delight. That candy-like combo sticks around for a bit before fading. You’re left with a simple, smooth amber base. Nothing overly complex or resin-heavy—this is one of the lighter, airier ambers, not a thick, dark one. It’s cozy and warm without feeling too heavy or dramatic. Performance is solid: it has moderate projection that stays close enough to be office-safe, but it lasts well on skin. Overall, it’s a pleasant, no-fuss amber with a sweet twist—great if you’re into Turkish delight vibes or want a soft, wearable amber for daily use.

Vanillic amber (french labdanum dominant), non-describe soft warm spicy (cinnamon,soft clovec tint hint of caraway) powdery vanilla almost giving chocolate, citrus jelly. Romantic, but it can also remind you of citrus urinal ball. This is successful blind buy. I love the way this smell on my skin. Citrus support can be slight artificial. // September 12, 2024 I stay with Amber Premier for a day and it turn out present than I except. The opening is citrus and sweet amber before transit into more powdery side and rose. Very classy, in both polite and feminine at the same time. :) I like this one.
