Versilia Vintage Ambra Mediterranea Profumi del Forte for women and men

A magnificent concoction of top quality amber (among the best available on the market) and straight ahead frankincense with a considerable woody presence. Warm, embracing, succulent, velvety, deep yet somehow crisp and enriched by sharpened details. The creme brulee of ambers.

For anyone who's into amber and incense Ambra Mediterranea is a mandatory stop. T-E-R-R-I-F-I-C! Insanely powerful and potentially cloying, be careful with dosage.

Kudos to Mr.Duchaufour!

I love amber scents. Sweet and yummy amber scents.
This one belongs in that category and is very enjoyable to me.
On me I cannot detect any orange or flowers, just delightful sweetness with a malty and caramelly note.
AM definitely has similarity to Pure Malt. If you like Pure Malt you might like Ambra Mediterranea or vice versa.
The scent develops more and more sweetness with time, displaying a soft woody chocolate aroma. Nothing is scratchy or harsh in this composition. Very pleasant and suitable for gourmand lovers.
There is another scent I find vaguely similar : Amber Absolute by Tom Ford but AM is less strong. Nevertheless, it is a long-lasting perfume with very nice sillage.
Downpoint : only available as 100ml and the price....but you get a pretty good value for that.

What a fabulous amber!

At first, coriander seed and orange rind dance together, creating so much electricity that - whoof! - they quite literally smoulder. There is a good hour with this perfume that it's predominantly a lovely smoky wood, with all the warmth and dryness that implies. There's a little salty airiness to this as well, which I suppose is the 'Meditarranea' part.

This mellows into an amber-patchouli that should, by rights, smell ordinary, but has just enough edge to keep it fascinating.

The sillage, interestingly enough, is quite vanillic and almost sweet, but I can barely smell anything vanilla with my nose to my wrist. It makes for a lovely contrast.

Definitely unisex - truly unisex, I should say. I don't want anything softer or feminine from it for myself, but I also think it would smell amazing on a guy.

The parfum opens wih coriander, than it goes sweet on my skin (Orange?). Sweet, sweeter and sweeter like honey. But the same way it keeps on to be very dry and woody. There is no Flower scent at all! It is pure oriental - woody fragrance on me. Like I've already said before it has something in common with Black Afgano, but with more sweetness. It is pretty sophisticated scent, multifaceted and adult. But I'm just not sure that I really love it.

Ciao Ofelia,a me sembra molto simile a Duro di Nasomatto,solo che qui si sente di più l'ambra.
Great perfume,to me it seems very similar to Nasomatto's Duro.
Great longevity and sillage.
Notwhistanding luxuriuos packaging,I think
the price is too much.
