The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2011 by Bond No 9, Harrods Amber is a bold and sophisticated Oriental Spicy fragrance created by Laurent Le Guernec. The composition opens with saffron and nutmeg, adding a fresh spicy edge before giving way to the warmth of bergamot and pepper. At its heart, jasmine, osmanthus, and rose create an elegant floral bouquet that balances the richness of benzoin and amber. A base of myrrh, musk, sandalwood, and agarwood (oud) anchors the scent with deep woody and musky notes, making it a long-lasting and strong presence.

How to wear it

Given its strong sillage and long-lasting nature, one generous spray is sufficient. The fragrance blooms best close to the skin, so apply directly onto pulse points for optimal warmth and depth.
