L’Occitane Ambre & Santal ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 27 September 2013 8 Comments

L'Occitane Ambre & Santal

L’Occitane has launched Ambre & Santal, a new addition to their La Collection de Grasse series (see Jasmin & Bergamote, Magnolia & Mûre, Vanille & Narcisse and Thé Vert & Bigarade).

Dare to embrace the ardent fragrance of the Ambre & Santal Eau de Toilette, a solar fusion of Oriental spice and Mediterranean wood.

Gentle top notes of bergamot and rosemary lead to a heart of fig leaves and rose. This woody oriental fragrance has a base of santal and cedar woods, as well as labdanum and vanilla.

Ambre & Santal was developed by house perfumer Karine Dubreuil.

L'Occitane Ambre & Santal is available in 75 ml Eau de Toilette and in matching bath & body products.

    Another lemming…will need to check this out. I’ll probably end up getting the soap.

    I have a feeling Amber fans will stick to the original Amber by L’Occitane.. The Collection de Grasse hasn’t been that impressive imo.

      Possibly…this is almost certainly a lighter scent.

    This sounds pretty. I’ve never tried anything by L’Occitane but I’m interested in one of their skincare products so I’ll probably go into a store soon.
