The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2019, Amber Santal by Ajmal is a blend of woody and amber accords that captures the essence of Middle Eastern elegance. The fragrance opens with fresh spicy notes from cypress and pepper, giving way to a heart of nutmeg and incense. The base layers in sandalwood, cedar, and patchouli, creating a smoky warmth that is both comforting and sophisticated. This composition seamlessly blends the fresh spiciness of its top notes with the rich, balsamic depth of its base, making it a versatile choice for any occasion.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance in light layers — it develops its full depth within an hour. The smoky base notes are best appreciated close to skin rather than from across a room.
