Les Absolus d'Orient Ambre Eternel

Ambre Eternel is a complex, animalic leather-amber fragrance with a strong initial presence and evolving depth. It opens with a sharp, spicy blend of cardamom, cinnamon, and coriander, layered over a dominant, salty animalic ambergris note that gives it a rich, musky, almost medicinal character. This transforms into a well-blended accord of leather, soft peach, ylang-ylang, and woody notes, creating a balsamic, slightly sweet core with an elegant, powdery finish. The scent is highly distinctive and unapologetically bold—sensual, mysterious, and regal in its character, with a dry, suede-like leather base that lingers through the long drydown. While praised for its craftsmanship and sophistication, it tends to become overwhelming for some due to its intense sillage and animalic sharpness. The fragrance unfolds slowly, revealing its layers over several hours, but performance is inconsistent—while some report strong longevity, others find it fades quickly despite solid ingredients.
