Amber Aquilaria
by Electimuss
Amber Aquilaria by Electimuss is a bold, opulent amber-oude cognac fragrance that commands attention. It opens with a sharp, boozy burst of cognac and bergamotâsome find it initially overwhelming, likening it to cough syrup or a sterile dental cleanâthough this intensity fades into a smooth, velvety core of ambergris, vanilla, and sandalwood. The scent settles into a luxurious, warm, and slightly animalic aura, marked by a pronounced ambergris presence that gives it its signature hedonistic, gilded elegance. It maintains a strong projection and excellent longevity, making it ideal for winter or formal occasions, particularly nighttime wear. While some find the sweetness overwhelming or the initial sharpness too much, those who give it time report transformative after-effectsâcomplex, layered, and deeply satisfying. The fragrance leans unisex but feels masculine in its boldness, with rich textures and surprising depth beyond a simple sweet-boozy profile.
