The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2024, Ambra by Santa Maria Novella is a fragrance that bridges the enigmatic East with the cherished citrus notes of Florence's Medici family. The composition opens with vibrant bergamot, which transitions into deep amber and myrrh, evoking an ancient winter garden within the Florentine court. The warm base of patchouli and sandalwood adds a rich layer that feels both lasting and modern.
Apply Ambra lightly to pulse points for a more nuanced experience. The bergamot top note fades quickly, but the base notes will develop beautifully over time, making it ideal for an evening out.
