Houbigant Ambre des Abysses

belongs to Houbigant‘s La Collection Orientale. Launched in 2023 and co-created by master perfumers Luca Maffei and Antoine Lie, this Aromatic Amber unisex Eau de Parfum is a faceted and bold composition that plunges into a hidden, aquatic-like abyss of amber.

The fragrance opens with a luminous Fresh Mint leaf accord, blended with sparkling Bergamot and the subtle sweetness of Orange Blossom. As the mint cools the senses, a warm, spicy heart emerges: Rosemary and Geranium intertwine with seductive Jasmine, supported by a base of earthy Patchouli and molten Amber. The dry-down is a rich, smooth, and surprisingly sweet conclusion: creamy Vanilla and Tonka Bean meld with a masculine Leather accord and grounded by earthy Oakmoss.

Unapologetically elegant and assertive, Ambre des Abysses offers excellent longevity and a moderate, sophisticated sillage. It is a perfect signature for cooler days and evening wear, embodying the daring, contrasting spirit of the Orient characterised by rich ambery notes wrapped in aromatic freshness.
