      ‘The best Agarwood resin, as cited throughout ancient religious scriptures, is extracted from the Aquilaria tree. Its rich cognac notes form the base of this exquisite fragrance. Amber Aquilaria opens with a bright, sparking bergamot that melts into a heart of roses – rich, velvet petals that mesmerise before falling into an opulent pillow of warm amber, sandalwood, Bourbon, vanilla and Aquilaria Oud. Passion for perfume was woven into the tapestry of everyday life for the Romans. Their fountains were scented rose water and perfume was part of cleansing rituals, celebration, feasts, seduction and worship. The Romans collected the finest and rarest oils from across the Empire, from West to East and that obsession, creativity and quest for the finest is at the heart of Amber Aquilaria Electimuss means “to choose the best” in Latin and that ethos is the essence of Amber Aquilaria. The finest oils and resins in this fragrance are rare and precious and have been blended with meticulous attention paid to every note and detail. This fragrance that exudes luxury and elegance and is connoisseur crowd pleaser.’

      Amber Aquilaria was a strange one to me. My initial reaction was a strong dislike, but I ended up liking it quite a bit.

      The first impression it gave me was that of a sweet chewing gum. It’s a big fragrance with big performance and that weird opening lasts long on me, but after a whole, it’s starting to change for the better.

      This gets boozy, with a vanilla sweetness (different than the sweetness in the opening). Warm spices, as in Casamorati 1888 or Moresque Contessa, but drenched in cognac. It’s woody and heavy.

      I’ll have to revisit this one at some point, but for now I’m intrigued, albeit that the opening would probably keep me from ever owning a bottle.
