Amber perfumes stand out for all the right reasons; the complex blends possess warm, spicy notes of rich nutmeg, cloves, orchids and jasmine and offer an intense, long-lasting scent on the skin - no wonder it’s been a firm favourite for centuries! With so many exotic choices to pick from, we’ve expertly chosen 5 of the very best amber perfume offerings available today.
1. Angel by Mugler
For Her
Whether you're a little angelic or a little devilish Angel by Mugler has been created for everyone. Provocative, soft and dare we say it... heavenly (sorry!), it features a beautiful blend of bergamot, pink pepper, red fruits, praline and cedar to create a unique fragrance experience that sits comfortably within the amber family.
