    Ambre Fétiche by Annick Goutal

    I'll let the others gt into the scent of this, but let me just add this...

    I made the mistake of using two sprays on my first application. It was overwhelming and my friends were making negative comments and rolling down windows. The opening smell was overbearingly incense-based for me, and almost made me sick to my stomach. I've learn one spray to one wrist, dabbing to the other and dabbing on my neck is PLENTY. The spray is literally around twice what I get out of any other bottle I currently own.

    It also sticks around. if you dont like it, youre out of luck. I took a shower when I get back from that trip the first use, and scrubbed my arms HARD with soap and could STILL smell it. It took 4-5 scrubs to get it clear. This one will stick around.

    This one is worth wearing out. When the overbearing of the incense fades, I rather enjoy it.

    Ambre Sultan by Serge Lutens Les Salons du Palais Royal Shiseido

    My favorite fragrance of all time. I avoid the note reviews as I am a comparative beginner...

    100% accurate with the medicinal and herbal hints on the opening. This fragrance, however, was able to individually teach me to not judge a fragrance by its first 45 minutes. Between the 0:45-1:15 mark it almost transforms from medicinal and herbal with a faint hint of amber into a stunning and impressive sweet (but not overbearing) amber scent.

    Amongst my 3 least enjoyable for the first half hour, and my FAVORITE thereafter. Try this one out, and dont judge it until the dry down.
