Ambre Nuit
by Dior
Ambre Nuit by Dior presents a refined, unisex scent centered around a smooth, powdery ambergris accented with a subtle rose and a quiet spiciness from pink pepper. It opens with a bright, effervescent burst of bergamot and grapefruit, which quickly softens into a warm, creamy core where the rose and ambergris harmonize with a delicate, almost incense-like depth. The fragrance evolves linearly, maintaining elegance without dramatic shifts. While some appreciate its sensual, cozy warmth reminiscent of a well-tailored coat or roasted apple cider, others note it has a faintly soapy or powdery nuance that can feel unanchored. Performance is inconsistent—some find it lasting over 8 hours, others report it fading to a faint skin scent within 3 hours. Projection is moderate to strong, ideal for evening or colder months, though not for hot weather. It wears well in both professional and romantic contexts.
