Veiled Ambergris

Ambergris has long been revered as one of the most precious materials in classical perfume, owing to its beguiling complexity. Musky, marine and earthy, this digestive byproduct of the sperm whale is known as “floating gold”. Veiled Ambergris unfolds on an abstracted bouquet of plum blossom, gardenia and rose, made more insinuating with the overripeness of mimosa. Gradually, ambergris makes itself known, its animalic resonance deepened with musk and castoreum.
