Black Amber

What it smells like

Black amber smells dark, warm and resinous, like a smoky, sweet balsam with a deep, slightly leathery and powdery richness. It feels sensual, mysterious and enveloping. It is used in the base to add a dark, glowing warmth. It pairs well with oud, patchouli, vanilla, incense and leather.
