Ambre

Originaly I pushed the dislike button and have not picked it up in over two years but today someone asked me about it so I decided to spray it on the back of my hand and wow, it's absolutely gorgeous. Exactly what I love, How can this be? All the perfumes I loved I'm not liking so much these days and all the ones I thought I not love I now love. I'm confused but happy to have rediscovered Reminiscence Ambre This is very smooth, sweet, clean, not loud, kinda baby powder type Amber. I must be going through a olfactory sense change as today I love this scent and am going to give it another go. Lucky I tried it again. I'll report back after a really good wearing. Update After a heavy spritz, 5 down each arm and 5 to the torso at around 9pm, it's now 9am and she is still going strong, absolutely beautiful Amber very sweet and feminine. So longevity is very good as she is showing no signs of fading yet. I say she because after wearing mostly Ambre Fetich for the last few years as my amber of choice, this one does come across as the beautiful sweet sister. 15 sprays may sound a lot but this bottle has a very good sprayer that does a fine, light mist, and the perfume it's self is one that starts of quiet then works it's way up, so the longer it's been on my skin the better it's actually got. Second update After the original drenching I've not reapplied and this is still going strong 24 hours later, unbelievable I know but true, it really makes me wonder how long this would last on me if I never had to take a shower lol I highly recommend this fragrance to young people who love vanilla but want to get in to amber because this is a great sweet, long-lasting Amber. A+

Many long years ago, when I was but a charming maid, I bought a very pretty little wooden box, about 1.5' x 1", with a pierced wooden top inlaid with brass. In that box was a chunk of amber that I think was intended to be used as a dry perfume, something you would rub behind your ears maybe. I can't remember if I bought it in a co-op or an apothecary's or a head shop (does that make it more likely that it was a head shop?). I still have it. Over the years the amber has dried out and become a mass of glinting fibers, but it still smells terrific, like sweet, dessicated woody-powder. Amber Reminiscence is more like that amber than any other amber perfume I've ever encountered. It's rich and lasting and deep. I don't smell much of anything other than amber in this, a bit of musk, maybe, a touch of vanilla's richness, but the amber is so good and so mouth-watering that it hardly matters. A very good perfume for situations where a pefumey perfume would be inappropriate. Edit: I wore this all day, to a party no less, and for me the sillage is perfect, about arm's legnth. I've never wanted to drag a trail of scent behind me, making eyes water wherever I go. And it's been eight hours, and I can still smell it when I move. Really lovely.

I blind bought two 100ml bottles of Ambre for 20€ each and I didn't expect that it smells so good. First of all even though that the olfactory pyramid suggests all the ingridients that we need to make a decent amber pie, Reminiscence Ambre is not an amber scent to me nose. This fragrance doesn't change much and what I get is a thick creamy-powdery bubble of (white) Musk and (warm) Ambergris with a delicate topping of Vanilla and Geranium, which makes the scent some kind of sparklier. Now, I am not a big fan of the Vanilla but it is here so perfectly blended that it is hardly detectable even as a main ingredient. Ambre goes in the same direction as Amouage Gold (woman) (but not as refined as Amouage!) and has a little bit of that oldschool aldehydic vibe, but it is not démodé at all. This fragrance is more animalic than you think therefore even not a dark and a loud one, go easy on the trigger, becuse that heavy Ambregris will hit you right in the stomach for sure. Ambre is an unisex perfume with a very good projection and longevity and it worths every penny. If you like Ambergris you should check Colonia Ambra by Acqua di Parma as well.

Having read the very mixed reviews here, i was a bit apprehensive blind ordering this, but I love their Patchouli so i went and ordered it. OMG. By far one of the best amber scents out there. For years I’ve been on the search for either another bottle of the best amber scent i ever smelled, from small Moroccan perfumer, L’Orientalist Marrakech, or similar replacement. I even looked for it in Marrakech, but sadly they seem to have closed their shop. So if anyone knows of any bottle floating somewhere PLEASE 🙏🏼 let me know! Back to Reminiscence Amber... soft, warm, what to me smells like pure amber Plenty of vanilla in there, I don’t get clove at all, perhaps a tiny bit of geranium just right at the start. But only if I really try and look for it Otherwise it’s just nuzzly, soft, cashmere scarf type of scent, I could drown in it Love love love

I had read somewhere that many French women wear this fragrance, and I have great respect for French women's taste and style. I also love amber tremendously so I purchased this blindly. Ambre has a wonderful quality of being both spicy and rich as well as sparkling and somewhat fresh. This gives the fragrance a great radiance. The drydown on me has a slight reference to Guerlain's Mitsouko or Chamade, I'm not sure which. This is such an easy fragrance to wear and compared to other ambers that I have tried, Reminiscence Ambre is light and bright while retaining just enough of that earthy hippie vibe.
