Scent Profile — What You'll Experience
Top Notes

Heart Notes
Guaiac Wood
Base Notes
Benzoin · Sandalwood · Vanilla
The opening arrives with a luminous burst of ambergris and cedarwood, softened by delicate ylang-ylang. Crisp and bright, this top layer speaks to spring and summer mornings—clean, inviting, and distinctly feminine. The composition feels alive from the first spray, drawing you into its warm embrace.
In the heart, myrrh and guaiac wood emerge with quiet sophistication, joined by the resinous warmth of gurjan balsam. This middle passage deepens the fragrance's character, revealing layers of complexity that unfold like a love letter. The heart is where the romance truly blooms—romantic yet never cloying, grounded yet lifting.
The base settles into benzoin, vanilla, opoponax, and sandalwood, creating a creamy, amber-forward dry-down. With 6–8 hours of longevity and a gentle personal sillage, Amber Star lingers as a soft cloud of warmth around your skin—noticeable enough to enchant, delicate enough to feel intimate and personal.
