by Areej Le Doré
Atlantic Ambergris by Areej Le Doré is a complex, opulent fragrance that unfolds like a narrative of the deep sea and ancient spiced voyages. The opening features a vibrant dance of bergamot, cardamom, and pine, evoking a maritime freshness that quickly deepens into a rich, warm core of ambergris, cloves, nutmeg, and tonka. This evolves into a deeply aromatic, woody-balsamic drydown with hints of labdanum, myrrh, cypriol oil, oakmoss, and violet leaf, creating a lasting impression of intensity and subtlety. While some perceive it as marine or oceanic—descriptions include 'aromatic sea requiem' and 'spice of the sea rover'—others note a warm, spicy, chocolate-like depth that feels dry, dusty, and intricately blended. The fragrance carries a striking presence with moderate sillage, long longevity, and a distinctive character that invites both admiration and contemplation.
