10/10

A unisex (leaning a bit more masculine) type of fragrance. A must have in my collection from now on. Not for everyone so I recommend getting a sample before purchasing the 100ml bottle like I did. Doesn’t smell like anything I’ve owned before so I can’t really compare it to anything lol.

Deep Ocean Amber 4/5

It's a unisex fragrance leaning masculine and suitable for all seasons, day or night.
It opens with a luxurious labdanum supported by sweet resins, giving it a fruity character that pushes through the ambery heart. The heart develops a deep, mysterious sweet atmospheric earthiness like reddish light gradating through the ocean. As it develops this unique sweetness my wife says “it smells like apples”. Then to the trained nose slowly this glimmering santal accord appears. Omg it's gorgeous. Its a lacing of gold. It definitely ties it all together. I know sandalwood isn't listed here so maybe what I detect is the golden ambergris in the fragrance beginning to come alive, because the ambergris is certainly laid bare later on at the finish. This fragrance profile created here as a whole is a 10/10. Below is why I knock off a few points.

At the 5 hour mark this frag gets a little too opaque for my taste as overall it transitions back to staying shaded and introverted and not the regal sweet character it has for the first ~3 hours. One thing is that these compounds open up marvelously outdoors, so it might need to be put to more use outside, quite similar to Orca by HoM, which thrives with natural air and body heat.

Rating: 8.8/10 - The textured golden laced opulent accord that develops is a treasure, for sure!! But, I wish the opulence lasted longer into the dry down instead of the unsweetened, opaque reversion. Still a totally great frag all in all and very high quality.
