Amber L`Occitane en Provence for women

Purely for information.
The site of L'Occitane says that the following are the real notes:

Top:
- Bergamot
- Freesia

Middle:
- Labdanum
- Tonkabean

Base:
- Amber
- Vanilla
- Cedarwood

This seems like something I'd love, so I'll be testing this soon.

This one is gorgeous and almost identical with another beauty: Rochas Absolu. Absolu has only better lasting power and better projection. But well done!!!!

This was more sharp wood than amber on me, so disappointing. The L'Occitane Amber room scent was a stronger more buttery amber than this one. I ended up scrubbing this off.

Finally found this one is L'Occitane today on sale so rushed to try it.
The opening is soft and sweet, but then it becomes extremely medicinal. As it gets into the dry down it becomes creamy and powdery and sweet, divine really. But the medicinal quality is far too prevalent and for too long to tempt me to buy. Deeply surprised that there are no more notes listed with how this develops on the skin.

Went to L'Occitane today to get a bottle of this (used to be £13 for 30ml - great!!) Now it's gone and everything has gone up in price by another £20 - what a disappointment!!!

Great news for all you Ambre lovers; this perfume will be re-launched sometime in Spring 2012- just contacted L'Occitane!

Perfect amber, loved the warm and comfortable feeling for fall and winter! Unfortunately discontinued. Shame on you L'Occitane!

£135 on ebay.co.uk!!! WOW!!! It must be good!!!!

I love this one. It's long-lasting, warm and quite masculine, so broadcasts a sense of confidence. A friend said to me once, when I was wearing it, 'Ooh, that smells expensive', but it wasn't! Shame it's no longer available.

I do miss this one. It wasn't a sophisticated amber, but it was a respectable amber, with just a hint of vanilla. Great longevity.

L'Occitane has a knack for discontinuing their best scents, and now all of their new scents just seem like flaccid flower water. Boo.

I liked this quite enough, but never loved. I much prefer L'Artisan L'Eau d'Ambre and only sometimes Reminiscence Ambre, but L'Occitane Ambre is a nice one, maybe simpler not so sophisticated, a little domestic, not pouring flows of astonishing real ambergris and actually quite powdery vanillic. It is good smelling and lasting. Or should I say it was? I entered a L'Occitane shop a few days ago and they told me it is discontinued. No more Ambre.

"Sexy" is certainly in the eye of the beholder. To me personally this is comfort and indulgence. L'occitane Amber is an ambery vanilla, soft and comforting, sweet but not sickly. Choose this if you're looking for a dark vanilla, rather than dark amber if you know what I mean. Nevertheless, it's an autumn goodie for me. :)

I don't know, everybody talks about some sexy and warm perfume here.. I don't know which one they're talking about! I was in the shop today and sprayed it on a paper and it appealed so soapy to me. Real amber-soap. And the first time when I tested this, it was on the skin... It was somewhat warmer and less piercing, though both times, I didn't find it sexy actually.

best amber scent, even better than prada amber..pure amber, soft warm but long lasting with a good sillage even it is an edt..sweet but not cloyingly, you like yourself in it, you like people wearing it, an optimistic perfume evoking happy feelings inside..I think galbanum avoids being oversweet..antique design of the bottle is very very nice..

Rich, spicy, faintly powdery vanilla amber. This one is nearly edible. Lovely.

It is ambre in heaven, romantically sexy, sinfully abundant with wild notes of herbs, musky tones, flowers, woodies and the essences of the earth. It satisfies a hunger you knew not you had, as you embrace its initial salute to your nasal passages. As you continue to breathe it in, you indulge in thoughts; mine began to make me feel sexy, wild and passionate -it promised me exctasy.
This is the one you wear when you want more than just one night of romance, more than a touch of love; this one calls forth the wildness in you to take measure and risk the sensuality of the dusk. It is irrefutably challenging at each stage of its olfactory assault from freshly sprayed to lingering morning after. The fragrance you savour with someone special. Never wear it alone.

Amazing winter perfume! Very sophisticated, oriental, woody, comforting and addictive!! Provides such cozy feeling, wraps around you and warms You up, smokey delish smells a bit like a wooden box. Nice sillage and amazing lasting power.

This one is realy, realy sensual, merges with skin beautifully.

Ambre is reminiscent on coming back home after long trip. Idle afternoon in front of the fire place, eating chocolate cookies. Watching family black and white records from your childhood. You are driving first bicycle down the street, and your brother shouts on plastic dolls in backyard. You nestle on the floor next to mothers feet. Not in the black and white tape record, now, in grown desolated today.

If you like Gucci EDP or Dior Homme you should give this a try. Ambre is unisex, warm, long lasting perfume, preferably warn in winter time. Although I find it comfortable and appealing, think it would be too much for day after day wearing.

Now that my nose has been seasoned a bit & has smelled a few other ambers, I gave this another go. This IS a sweet amber, not vanilla candy-sweet, more the sweet of rich(unsmoked)pipe tobacco. This is on the rich, sweet, spicy & woody spectrum of ambers. Just a hint of earthy resin, NOT a fresh herbal green. It's warm, long-lasting, and well-blended. Another review said it's a bit boozy, and I agree byt not cheap, more a rich, well-aged brandy kind of boozy. Nothing synthetic or chemical-smelling to it, which is such a pleasure compared to so many mainstream frags. So, SO glad I hung on to it.

Lovely, cheap and sexy amber perfect for your handbag. One of the only perfumes I've used every scrap of.

This bottle isn't just a clever play on an old-fashioned cologne bottle shape. The bottle itself is pretty smart. It knows what it's doing. Both times when I sprayed (on paper strip, and then on myself) the tester bottle gave me just a little bit. And this is all that is needed.

A little bit went truly a long way for me. This is not a type of scent that enters the room while you're only thinking about entering. Not that I want that effect. I'd much rather come closer to someone and let them whiff the scent and start trying to get closer to me to smell it again and to figure out its mystery.

It's amber, dark amber, and some spices. I'm positive I smell a touch cloves in it, elusive and not annoying at all, some cinnamon, and some sandalwood. There's no sweet notes in it, yet there is warmth.

If I were to live in my own perfect amber bubble, I'd need two scents only - the Sensuous Amber for daytime and this one for nights. The Sensuous Amber is light and slightly fruity, it is like an EDT (which it is). The L'Occitane's Amber is an EDT as well, but it stays and smells like an EDP would. I sprayed it in the morning and I smelled it all day as well as a little bit into the night. And it even stayed on my coat potently enough to give me a new application, so I am enjoying the shadow of this gorgeous scent again. Ooohhh, my amber bubble...

This is amber at its best! Very similar to Gaultier 2 but more on the feminine side. The drydown is powdery and sweet and envelops you like a cosy cashmere pullover. Amber scents always evoke pictures of a fireplace and amaretto in my head and so does Amber - I find it very cosy and comforting. A must-try for all lovers of warm and earthy amber scents.

This is a very special amber scent.Extremely warm,,sexy,seductive.It has something in it that reminds of Dior`s Addict on my skin+warm amber.It is very long lastin,perfect for cold days and nights.I feel very very self-confident wearing it.It is for real amber lovers :)

one of my favorite ambers. amazing lasting power, warm and its sweetness is really non-cloying. just don't spray too much! i love it and will wear it in the winter.

Ambre just smells like the earth and sun, so warm, intimate and completely blended with the skin, but there is no freshness in it.Although there is no vanilla in part, to me smells like a combination of amber, sandalwood and vanilla. If you love oriental scents you can't go wrong with Ambre, it's lasting and doesn't lose it softness to the end... perhaps even sexy because it gives the impression that it was the smell of your skin.

Great fragrance,its so calming and warm.I have recently found out that i love amber,and i adore this..its very similair to bvlgari black,another one i love very much.But this one is even better.

buen perfume, no es para salidas especiales, es mas para todos los dias, pero el unico problema es que es muy caro!!!

Comfortable, warm amber.

mmmmmm, Amber. But that's pretty much it. One squirt and it was there the rest of the day. The EDT is somewhat oily. It's a very sweet, mild Amber very close to VS Amber Romance. I might want to have a FB down the road. Still on the fence on this one. I like Mac's MV3's take on amber. A little sexier and more depth. UPDATE- Love this, addicting scent. It has a warm maple syrup, spicy-woodiness to it. The dry down is powdery sweet still smelling slightly of a wooden box. Love it more than MAC mv3 which is too leathery now.

I really like it...pure, strong amber. It reminds me of Gaultier2.
