The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2015, Amber Flash by Tauerville is an oriental composition that captures the warmth and richness of amber with a subtle play on spices and woods. Perfumer Andy Tauer crafts this scent to be unisex, making it equally appealing for both men and women. The fragrance opens with a bold burst of warm spices before settling into a heart of powdery florals and balsamic notes, creating a harmonious balance between the aromatic warmth and the softness of vanilla and musk. Patchouli adds an earthy touch to the base, grounding the entire composition in a cozy embrace.

How to wear it

Apply Amber Flash to pulse points and let it build naturally over time. The warm spices are most prominent in the first hour, so a light application will ensure that the powdery and musky base notes have ample space to shine throughout the day.
