Ambre Sultan
Eau de Parfum
by Serge Lutens

The Scoop
Mysterious and strangely moving, Ambre Sultan is the antithesis of the golden, powdery ambers you may be familiar with. This stunning fragrance is deep, resinous scent, loaded with spices, deep amber, earthy patchouli, dark resins and quiet vanilla, all of which combine to make a visceral and raw scent experience. It’s a trip to a Bedouin tent in a desert far away and stealing a look inside…thick incense burning on coal with spices filling the air, mysterious eyes flashing and a very real feeling that you’ve never smelled anything like this magnificent amber perfume before. A devilishly dark aroma that goes beyond sensual or coy, Ambre Sultan is flat out oozing sexuality, deeply exotic and utterly, totally and completely unforgettable. Once you smell it, it will haunt your dreams until you find your way back to it.

Ambre Sultan Notes
coriander, amber, oregano, bay leaf, myrtle, angelica root, sandalwood, patchouli, benzoin, vanilla

Some ambers subtly caress you, like Le Labo's Ambrette 9. This just shouts loudly in your face. The benzoin leaves a harsh taste in the back of my throat.

Thick and smoky. Very intense, which I like. It stays on your skin for hours and hours, so you get good value in a bottle. Would like to smell this on a man ;)

The benzoin and resins are really prominent on me an unfortuantely I don't like my ambers this thick and strong, I feel like an incense shop. Then again, I've never had any Lutens work on my skin, not one of them, so i'm not surprised that this is no different. Also I appreciate theherbs/spices that create a different take on amber but they give this a masculine edge on me.

l really wanted to be wowed by this, but l'm not. lt opens with the strong, medicinal, fresh-cut-wood blast that l've come to expect from a decent amber, but then it becomes very dry, with aromatic herbs & pine needles, before eventually settling into a benzoin-like, but still herbal sweetness, by which time it's fading fast. l respect it's quality & construction, but like all Serge's scents the sillage & longevity are poor on me, & it doesn't have the rich, deep sweetness that l crave in an amber. Not for me.

This is the most beautiful amber fragrance I have ever smelled. No suprise, it is another great scent by master, Serge Lutens. I am not an amber lover. I don't think I will be purchasing Ambre Sultan for myself, just because amber is not my thing. I might be buying it for a friend of mine who loves amber notes. I could be wearing Ambre Sultan myself however when I can reach for Arabie or Bois Oriental... I just don't need this one. But about the scent itself? I actually never liked amber in perfumes. As much as I love incense, spices and everything else that's oriental, amber was just never my thing. BUT If I were an amber lover, Ambre Sultan would be my number one HG scent. It is such a beautiful, warm, spicy perfume. As the time goes by it actually deepens leaving behind the cloud of Serge Luten's signature spices. I absolutely agree with everyone who says this is a gorgeous scent... even when I prefer Arabie over Ambre Sultan, still I have to say AS is beautofil and rich. Very well-made.

This is an unforgetable scent! After all I have a bottle and it is the warmest perfume I have. The more you ware it the more it flowerishes, it keeps on getting stronger and more sensual as time goes by. I try to detect the notes and it feels like looking down at a deep clove, you want to go there but there is no way down or up again. Ambre Sultan takes you within its wild world. I hope it does it to the ones next to me when i ware it.........

A very close tie with another amber favorite... Warm, a touch powdery, a LOT amber-y; I find the cumin aspect perfect for gentlemen. 4 1/2 stars keep-sniffing-your-wrist delicious!

This was my first SL purchase a few years ago and I love it. Its probably my second favorite perfume ever (only after Serge's Chypre Rouge). It stays on forever. The scent is intoxicatingly warm and spicy and reminds me of living in the middle east. Very sexy. I'm not sure how it would smell on a man - I think its definitely more womanly!

A true perfume for men or women. Pure, deep, rich, and sensual. It lasts for days nut never screams or overwhelms. It's the kind of ambery/vanilla that works in cold and warm climates. It never fails to attract compliments. A classic that will live forever.

What I love most is the dried herbs in the middle notes, the oregano and bay leaf combined with the sweet amber and vanilla work strange beauty. For about 2 hours, this scent is PURE heaven and about as great as any. It kind of reminds me of Dior's Dune, which has that dry hay smell on top. However, the dry-down is very very sweet. Not the "cheap chocolate" of Dune but a nice vanilla honey sweetness -- but quite sweet nevertheless, which is not really my thing.

My favorite amber of the ten I've tried. Thrilling, deep, sensual. I kid you not. My next purchase. A scent for colder months, nightime, romance.

Deep, rich, silky yet thick--this fragrance is warm, dark and completely yummy. A lifelong favorite!

I love this. It really is mesmerizing to me. It has the same strange appeal of People of the Labyrinths but then it mixes with warm, resinous amber. I'm a huge fan of POTL but I think I prefer this. It is not a sweet, pretty scent-its a gorgeous, warm and utterly unique fragrance.

This is a wonderful, sultry, long lasting fragrance. The atomiser is not good, though, for the price.
