Ambergreen

I just wanted to post an update as I have tried this gem again. So well composed and put together. Very green and very fresh. It lingers on my skin for a long time. It definitely has the ambroxan thing going and I am a fan of that. I believe Molecule and Dolce and She Wood share the same type of ingredient. But Ambergreen has the lovely green note that feels extremely fresh extremely exhilarating. All in all this really is a gem niche fragrance and I must get a full size bottle. I just received a lovely sample of this fragrance through Fragrantica as a giveaway I believe. First and foremost thank you for this wonderful site. I would like to thank Oliver & Co. for giving me the opportunity to sample this wonderful fragrance. Upon first spray I knew I loved it. Ambergreen is the perfect name as that's what I smell upon first spray. A very green and ambery opening opening unlike anything else I have ever smelled before. I adore the initial smell. It starts to settle in about 30 seconds and transforms into a slightly different but equally beautiful aroma. Pleasant and very enjoyable from beginning to end. This is truly unisex without leaning to masculine nor to feminine. Quite often I purchase a fragrance that is stated unisex but it often is to heavy and masculine for me. This one is not. It is a beauty. Normally with samples I don't every purchase a full size bottle but I am compelled to with this one. I honestly think I will. The price tag is somewhat higher then I normally spend but I feel this one is worth it as it's truly niche. A gorgeous fragrance that is truly wearable safely by both genders - it's not at all a gender bender but a luxurious unisex gem!

Deep, deep, deep, deep sweet green.... Wow... Totally amazing... love child of 1828 Histoire d’Parfums 1828 Jules Verne and Comme Des Garçon Amazing Green overdosed on steroids... So... now supplants my fave two alternatives in a scent for which I know no other comparable alternatives... what a shame I bought the last bottle and his business is winding up... so sad... So... a cavalcade of wet mashed basil, parsley and coriander and hod knows what other greens and sweet green stems with a succulent deep dark sweet green bell pepper brightened and bodied out on top by citrus - I get the tangerine but sometimes I feel wafts of juicy lime and graduated with a cut grassy feel down to the green depths... The citrus changes this from an Exquisite almost gourmand to a gorgeous unique perfume. Bright, invigorating, left field and probably the best perfume for me for 2021..

My personal favourite among the offerings of this wonderful house. A weird green radioactive bomb that works amazingly on skin and has no parallel with any other fragrance (that I know). As most Olivers be ready to be fulfilled with a dense potion. In this case fresh and enigmatic but not soft at all. This is the kind of jewels I wouldn't let my friends know its name... partly because they may hate me for the recommendation ( = no safe blindbuy I think) and partly because I would live it as a tragedy if another person nearby smells the same. It is too one of a kind for two wearers to share. What a pity Oliver doesn't sell the 16ml anymore as those were wonderful wonderful wonderful. Don't miss taking a look at the whole line, you shall be more than surprised!

Out of all the wonderful fragrances I own, Ambergreen has attracted the most compliments from colleagues and friends. I find that so funny simply because Ambergreen is clearly not trying to be a perfume. I don't even feel it's trying to smell pleasant or wearable. The smell is just as bracing and biting as sticking your nose into freshly cut parsley. A little bit jagged and intensely green. Intriguing, natural and truly niche.

Ambergreen is another offering from a niche house with ambroxan and other aroma chemicals. This was a blind buy based on older recommendations in the forum and based on the reviews that exist here. Well, it's not what I was expecting but still is as good as any scent with the same philosophy as Dior Sauvage. It opens very harsh, synthetic to the maximum. It's bitter-green and sour at the same time with a very strong acidic green vibe. For a few seconds feels like you spilled something nasty from a laboratory but quickly it settles down into a moderate projecting scent. I get mild basil, coriander, strong shiso, mild powdery orris root, very strong amyl salicylate, strong ambroxan, strong galbanum which tries to emerge from the pool with the rest strong chemicals but in vain.. it is vivid but not dominant. Then comes a green note like a green pepper, strong but synthetic. The green mandarin, the fig leaf and the grass stay at the background supporting the rest notes. They are faint but present. Overall it's a nice scent which becomes better through time. I also get something citrusy/woody/cedar-ish which looks like similar to the Iso E Super used by the Escentric Molecules house and a spicy note which looks like rhubarb especially at the opening. At the late dry down I get a fresh and slightly sour and spicy green pepper smell with something which looks like papyrus. The ambroxan which is used here is smooth and it doesn't burn my nose. Same as in Sauvage Christian Dior , Noir Gabardine LM Parfums , Boucheron's exclusives Néroli d'Ispahan Boucheron but not as smooth as for example in Giuseppe Naso Di Raza or in Lalique's exclusives Fleur Universelle Lalique , Terres Aromatiques Lalique . Ambergreen is quite safe after the initial green chemical shock and suitable for year round use IMO except very high temperatures. It doesn't feel natural or realistic by any means.. think of a green Dior Sauvage for example. Nothing natural about it but pleasant. A nice surprise was its longevity which is remarkable. First time I tested it survived a whole day on my hand, I went to gym, I took a shower, I washed the dishes, I washed some more times my hands and it still was there as a skin scent. Even the next day until the noon before lunch.. then it gone with the dish washing. And the smell was something like an old book, dust from an old bookshelf, a very familiar smell of mine. The sillage is moderate. The projection is moderate to soft and most of it's life is a subtle scent which stays close to the skin. For the compliment hunters, the first day I wore it I got two compliments from a woman and from a male friend. I don't think that it's challenging if you like this type of scents. Definitely not a safe blind buy just as Dior Sauvage. I don't regret from this blind buy but anyone who want natural greens should stay away from this. If you like ambroxan, Escentric Molecules house and in general synthetic scents just as Zarkoperfume, One of Those NU-BE, Aether give it a try. Ambergreen has the same quality as the top offerings from Escentric Molecules house such as The Beautiful Mind Series line. Rich in aromas and strong.
