Knock on Wood
Ambre Noir sent me into a strange little emotional spin as it made me both sad and happy to discover it.
Sad, because it had been on my test list for a long time due to its lush notes and enigmatic name ... But ended up leaving me feeling "meh".
Happy however, because I now won't have to get a bottle.
Split reaction for a split personality scent, especially in the early stages of development.
One side of the coin is warm and honeyed and the other has antiseptic medicinal qualities reminiscent of a heat rub.
It progresses from then on to being a dusty amber with very pronounced wood undertones, quite similar to Youth Dew in fact.
I prefer my amber sweeter and smoother but if you're after a woody one, then this fits the bill nicely.
