When autumn arrives the popularity of amber at our experiences increases; a blend that enriches autumnal senses.
We'll choose walks in the woods with crisp leaves under foot as nature puts on its' display of gorgeous golds, reds and browns as the trees shed their summery emerald green leaves. We'll choose scarfs, ankle boots, maybe even wellies and a traditionally British gilet as we slowly switch our wardrobe to embrace a cooler climate - but what about our perfume?
Our fragrance trend this autumn is Amber
The term Amber, is loosely used to describe a scent that is warm, musky, rich and sweet - oriental yet earthy at the same time. Amber originates from ambergris, when translated in French means 'grey amber'. Extraordinarily it's origin isn't as pretty as it's scent. Ambergris is a bi-product left by a sperm whale and is often found on shores. Usually this scent is created by blending vanilla and labdanum and is used to add a sweet and woody base to your perfume.
"At The Perfume Studio, you'll find our unique blend of Amber, an opulent oriental accord that opens with zesty bergamot infused with subtle spices and ends as a warm, sweet, resinous warmth. Perfect for inducing comfort as the darker nights draw in this autumn."
