Ambra Eau de Parfum by Acqua di Parma was launched in 2019 as a Woody Aromatic fragrance for women and men. Created by François Demachy, this composition opens with a bright burst of Calabrian bergamot and orange, which give way to the warmth of rose and cypriol oil. The heart is anchored by patchouli and sandalwood, while the base notes of ambergris and musk add an animalic depth that is both mysterious and comforting. This fragrance embodies Acqua di Parma's commitment to Italian elegance, blending crisp citrus with rich woods and a subtle hint of incense.

Application Tips
Ambra Eau de Parfum has a rich base that takes time to bloom, so apply it generously and allow at least an hour for the full depth to emerge. The top notes are bright but fleeting, making the fragrance better suited for daytime wear when the woody warmth feels most fitting.
