Ambrorient (2008)
by Esteban

In Belgium recently for work I was very happy to wander into a shop selling a few niche perfume lines... one being the Esteban line which was new to me... where I snatched a moment of peaceful sniffing time between the meetings. I sprayed Ambrorient on a blotter and let out such a loud 'Oh!'that all the staff stared at me. 'Oh! Coromandel!' is actually what my surprised nose was thinking, surprised I suppose because I don't expect anything else to smell like Coromandel.

So from this brief (on paper not skin) encounter with Ambrorient the knee jerk reaction is smells like Coromandel but with a slightly fruitier top note. Looking forward to seeing if other reviewers have a similiar reaction.
