When Fragrance du Bois set their sights on amber as a main component for their newest Prive release, our expectations- and imaginations- were sky high. After all, the Prive line is defined by exceedingly rare ingredients, including their proprietary 100% organic vintage oud, as well as a willingness to simultaneously embrace and defy convention, to deliver scents that knew when to follow traditional structure, and when to take bold risks. To that end, Amber Intense is certainly an amber scent- loaded with rich, resinous, balsamic fullness- but with its spicy, floral complexity, it's also so much more.
Amber Intense opens with a spice and citrus laden burst, where notes of bergamot, tangerine, black pepper and cinnamon pop and fizz with vibrant energy. As the rich floral heart unfolds, an exquisite blend of rose, jasmine and neroli captives against the rich amber accord, a warmly resinous blend of styrax, labdanum and patchouli that doubles down with enduring base notes of benzoin and peru balsam alongside Fragrance du Bois' unparalleled vintage oud. The result is a scent that's rich but never heavy, complex but never confusing, with an undeniably confident elegance.
