Amber – Rook Perfumes – saffron & black musk

Top note: Saffron, smoke
Middle notes: Incense, amber, maple
Base note: Black musk, tonka bean, resin

Amber takes amber literally: more resin and embers than sweet-warm perfume. The saffron and smoke give a dry, slightly burnt feeling in the opening, then comes incense and the amber-like warmth with a maple note that feels like a mineral and earthy sweetness rather than dessert.

Perfect when you want something that sits close to the skin but still has weight: a vernissage, a late dinner, a nice evening walk. It also works well as a layering perfume under a lighter citrus to make it more interesting.

Fragrance family: Oriental/amber, smoky, spicy

Available as a full size as well as a 10 ml travel atomizer and 2 ml tester.
