The story behind the bottle.
Ambre by Ex Nihilo, launched in 2016, is a composition that encapsulates the brand's commitment to avant-garde creativity and refined luxury. The fragrance opens with a soft spicy accord, providing an initial warmth that quickly gives way to powdery notes, creating a sense of comfort and intimacy. At its core, Ambre is anchored by rich amber and animalic accords, blending into a deeply sensual and enveloping scent. This unisex Oriental fragrance marries the raw power of its base with the delicate touch of its top notes, resulting in an olfactory experience that feels both modern and lasting.
Apply Ambre to pulse points for a slow build that unfolds over several hours. The powdery top notes are fleeting, so focus on letting the rich amber base take center stage. Best suited for evenings or cooler weather when its warmth can envelop you fully.
