The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2022, Amber+Smoke by Michael Malul London is a captivating Oriental fragrance crafted by perfumer Ilias Ermenidis. The composition opens with the bright zing of lemon zest and saffron, creating an initial contrast before diving into its heart notes of orange blossom and Egyptian jasmine. This floral warmth then settles into a rich base of amber, oakmoss, smoke, pine tree, and tobacco, evoking a sense of earthy sophistication.

How to wear it

Apply one to two sprays for a lasting effect. The smoky base notes are slow to bloom but carry through the day, so it's best suited for evening wear or cooler weather when you want a deeper, richer scent.
