Would agree, a man could easily wear it.

I recently purchased a sample of this and it is absolutely one of the best colognes I have smelled in a long time. It says it’s for women but I say it’s unisex. Absolutely love it. If you can try it out, make sure it’s on the top of your list!!!

Ah, I see – yes, that does help. I have tried the two ambers from L’Artisan and didn’t like them. I think a more straightforward amber is too sweet and sticky for me – it must be the spices in Sultan that give it a skanky edge that appeals to me. I found a 15ml decant of Ambre Sultan on Ebay and snapped it up, very reasonable price too.

Oh, this is a MUCH simpler scent than AS…more “Italian style”, if that helps.

Oh, this sounds lovely. I have become a huge fan of Ambre Sultan by Serge Lutens, and so far havn’t found an Amber to quite match it. But I guess I’ll be getting a sample of this soon……….

You know, it must be an Eau de Toilette? It really doesn't last long enough….but it is still one of my favorites from this line, and you're right: sweet, but not too sweet.

I received a small decant of Ambra del Nepal earlier this afternoon and as soon as I was done with my bath I applied. Loved it from application right thru drydown. It's sweet and vanilla with an amber background. Not too sweet tho. The only thing I would love to see improved is the strength. It is very weak and needs re-applying as stated by Robin. But it's going to be a lovely spring scent for me.

Thanks K, that is why I should keep boxes! Agree that it is fresh, and not gourmand…but still more amber than I can take in the heat

That sounds perfect, I wish they would import those to the US!

Robin – the back of my box says “Eau de Parfum.” How funny it is to me to read it is a winter choice for you! It's one of my favorite summer scents, as it's take on amber makes it smell rather fresh on me in the hotter weather. I think what I like best about it is that it has such strong vanilla on me, but without even a suggestion of it being a gourmand fragrance.
