Ambre Sultan is an aromatic-oriental, amber-centric composition designed to evoke a scented amber wax found in a souk. It is built around resins and herbs, producing a dusty, resinous amber that is both green/herbal and sweet/resinous. The common note listing includes top notes of angelica root, coriander, bay leaf, myrtle, and oregano, providing a green, herbal, and slightly medicinal opening. The heart features labdanum (cistus), tolu balm, benzoin, styrax, and amber, contributing a resinous, honeyed, and tarry character. The base consists of sandalwood, dry/powdery vanilla, patchouli, and cistus/amber resin, leading to a long, warm drydown. The fragrance is characterized by an herbal-green and spicy opening that quickly transitions into a warm, resinous amber, with labdanum/beeswax, benzoin, and dry vanilla forming a sticky, somewhat smoky/dusty base. Repeated descriptors include amber, labdanum/cistus, beeswax, resinous, smoky/incense-like, dusty, honeyed, warm, and slightly boozy/woody.
