Serge Lutens Ambre Sultan is one of the early Serge Lutens fragrances and is considered a bellweather amber scent. If you don't know if you love amber, try this, you'll find out quickly! If you love amber, this is a must-have for any amber-lover's fragrance collection. Notes of rose, musk and myrtle support and enliven the amber, and it is incredibly long-lasting, pretty much shower-to-shower!
Review of Serge Lutens Ambre Sultan from other noses that may or may not sniff like your nose.
from bestmenscolognes - "Ambre Sultan opens up with the amber note, that is joined by quite a resinous aroma, and a healthy dose of spice. Coriander, bay leaf, and some herbal spices are fairly heavy at the start of this fragrance. I was expecting it to be a warmer and sweeter fragrance than it is, but I instead get, a lot of sandalwood and the aforementioned spice notes. It does get somewhat sweeter, as it wears on, but it’s nothing super dramatic."
from olfactoriastravels - "I thought an amber fragrance from our dear Serge would blast me clean out of my boots, to put it mildly. What I got was a purring kitten, sleeping in my lap, spreading its warmth, not a roaring tiger that is out to have me for dinner. Ambre Sultan is a gorgeous perfume, an amber to love, an amber to cherish, an amber perfect in its execution, but it does not pack a punch like Annick Goutal Ambre Fetiche, Armani Privé Ambre Orient, Parfums d’Empire Ambre Russe or Tom Ford’s Amber Absolute, it is a lot subtler and lower in volume."
