The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2012 by Le Labo, Ambrette 9 Perfume Oil is a sophisticated blend of floral and fruity notes, designed to evoke the freshness of a summer garden. Created by perfumer Michel Almairac, this fragrance opens with bright citrus and green accords before transitioning into a heart of jasmine and rose, grounded by a musky base that adds depth and warmth. The interplay between its fresh and sweet elements makes it both vibrant and inviting.

How to wear it

Apply Ambrette 9 lightly for a more delicate presence or layer it for a richer experience. The citrus top notes are fleeting, so allow the fragrance to develop over time to fully appreciate its complex layers.
