🌙 20. Ambre Samar Review, Video & Sample

Ambre Samar Collage & Samples Nectar Atelier

Crafted by Guerlain perfumer Delphine Jelk, Ambre Samar is a vibrant composition where almond and frankincense swirl with cardamom, while amber, tonka, and patchouli ground the musky shimmer of Guerlain’s own ambergris tincture.

Ambre Samar is not a boring amber. It’s a warm flickering trail of light in the dark, a spicy honeyed amber illuminated by a red moon. Inspired by a red moonlit night, it opens with cardamom, almond, and sacred frankincense, leading into a golden amber accord with warm nuances of vanilla and honey. It opens with a sparkling lift, almost a fizzy, golden concoction of almond, frankincense, and cardamom—before melting into honeyed amber, tonka, and patchouli. There’s a mineral shimmer underneath that adds a sparkling lift and elegance. 

It’s rich but not heavy, and wears like the warmest glow on the skin. It’s an amber that shimmers and dances—its fizzy nature feels effervescent and invigorating.

Amber lit by red moonlight.

Fizzy warmth in the dark.

Apply to pulse points before dusk or when you crave warmth.
