Bergamot · Jasmine
The opening unfolds with luminous amber and rose, creating a soft yet commanding presence that draws you in immediately. These top notes establish a warm foundation that feels approachable yet refined, setting the stage for what's to come.
What follows is a sophisticated heart of agarwood, sandalwood, and benzoin, layered with spice notes of nutmeg, pepper, and saffron. Musk and myrrh add depth and sensuality, while osmanthus introduces a delicate floral whisper. This complex middle phase reveals why New York Amber shares a similar profile to the original—it's built to evolve and captivate, offering a warm skin-level presence that wraps around you without overwhelming.
The base grounds everything in bergamot brightness and jasmine warmth, creating a graceful finish that lingers for 6–8 hours. The sillage is noticeable without being aggressive, performing beautifully in mild to warm climates. This is a fragrance that works as hard for you by day as it does by night.
