Quentin Bisch

"Ambre Impérial is a warm, refined amber fragrance with a distinctly unisex character. It opens with a bright, gently piquant combination of bergamot and pink pepper. The heart develops into a smooth blend of amber, tonka bean, vanilla, and benzoin, giving the composition sweetness, warmth, and balsamic depth. Woody notes anchor the fragrance and keep the sweetness polished rather than overly dense. Its overall style is luxurious, comfortable, and enveloping, with a balance between freshness and rich oriental warmth. The fragrance is particularly well suited to cool weather, evening wear, and moments when a sophisticated amber presence is desired."
