prada amber intense..not many men amber out there..

I will second the Amber Absolute. I get around 8-10 hrs. Strong projection for the fist 6 hours or so. Gorgeous incense/amber.

[Jack Hunter]

hdP Ambre 114 - I get about seven hours from it and the projection is average.

[hedonist222]

All of the above are good.

Amber Sultan too. Also Mitzah and Extreme Amber but my reference عنبر is Versilia Vintage Ambra Mediterrenea - Profumi del Forte. Embracing and glowing.

[trex57]

For me its Ambre Sultan from SL. A loud herbal smack at opening but it quiets down (somewhat) after 30min. or so. The longevity for me is at least 8 to 10hrs. the projection above average.

Cheers Rex

Not saying they are the best, but my favorites are:

HdP Abrarem
L'Air du desert Marocain
MPG Ambre Precieux

All of the above lasts 8+ hours and have above average projection.

[Ken_Russell]

Azzaro PH - great longevity, up to 8-10 hours

[alfarom]

Versilia Vintage Ambra Mediterrenea - Profumi del Forte.

^^^^ THIS! + Ambre Precieux, Ambre 114, Ambre Russe.

[hobbes22]

Personal favorites:

my reference is Versilia Vintage Ambra Mediterrenea - Profumi del Forte. Embracing and glowing.

I really need to try this one and Ambrarem...

[alfarom]

I really need to try this one

If you like amber, AM is MANDATORY!

[drseid]

My favorite amber is Les Nombres d'Or Ambre by Mona di Orio. It has above average projection and superb longevity. The thing I like most about it is it is not sickeningly sweet like most ambers are. The dry-down is out of this world incredible. A hidden gem to be sure.

The first runner-up is Ambre 114 by Histoire de Parfums, followed by the very different but equally superb Ambre Sultan and Versilia Vintage Ambra.

[Stew]

I have about 8 ambers I still need to try so I won't pick a favorite, but is anyone familiar with Etro's Ambra?

[G.303]

New York Amber by Bond No.9.....Longevity is not a problem.....Gary

[DNT]

L'ombre Fauve is a good animalic amber.

[hobbes22]

If you like amber, AM is MANDATORY!

I really should have asked for a sample of this and some Mona di Orio's with my Turtle Vetiver Front order at Luckyscent...

[laph]

There is no best....

prada amber intense..not many men amber out there..

I have this often overlooked fragrance and like it quite a lot, but the amber is not the biggest player in this. Amber is there with a lot of other things, very nice. Also Amber Sultan and for a darker edge, By Kilian Amber Oud.

[Primrose]

PdE Ambre Russe.

[hedonist222]

Tsk tsk tsk shame on you! Not only are you in the US, you are in the same state as LuckyScent.
Its an ordeal for me to order perfumes/samples from LS but it should be a breeze for you.

Order it now!

[Reza]

One more for HdP Ambre 114.

[CityFan21]

I really enjoy Tom Ford Amber Absolute, it has a fantastic balance of incense and amber. Try Profumum Ambra Aurea if you want just a pure amber.

[grigoran1986]

i tried and really enjoyed ambre soie by armani.. but i ve been told that projection and duration are really poor with this one.. plus its very pricy

[Fraghead]

Tom Ford Amber Absolute...10 hours longevity on me and average projection.

+1, only I get 24 hours longevity and excellent projection for the duration. To me, this is a 'dirty' amber. I remember reading a review that said this smells like dirt; I sort of know where the reviewer is coming from, but it's a very authentic, unashamed amber. Quite linear but if you like amber, this won't bother you.

[>BOOMER<]

I really enjoy amber, when it's done right that is.

The discontinued, but wonderful, Gucci Pour Homme I.

All day and then some.

[Trauerkraut]

Ambre Précieux.

[MrAndySais]

The best one hasn't been mentioned yet: Armani Privé - Ambre orient

[sacredsystem]

Amber Absolute; excellent projection and longevity.

[hawk]

amber absolute all the way!
and sorry to say this but Versilia Vintage Ambra Mediterranea TO ME of course, smells so shrill and full of synthetics. I tried it from 2 different samples with the same result everytime >>> Chemical bomb!

[Oupavoc]

TF Amber Absolute
SL Ambre Sultan

[Tappio]

Ambre Sultan, Ambre Precieux and Halston Man Amber.
