Estate Amber is obviously all about amber - golden, sweet, deep and slightly resinous with subtle notes of cardamom and coriander. The fragrance opens with a sparkling zing but proceeds to a gorgeous and lasting amber. It's an intriguing fragrance that seems to smell different each time you take a sniff - it may be sweet or resinous, warm and sunbaked or slightly smoky. Estate Amber features notes of Solstice Scent's Estate Vanilla, golden amber, amber resin, cardamom absolute and organic coriander.
Created by Angela St. John as part of a collection of fragrances based on the fictional town of Foxcroft, Maine. Estate Amber is an eau de parfum, edp.
SOLSTICE SCENTS ESTATE AMBER REVIEWS
Fragrantica: A gourmand amber that is vanilla, booze, sugar with coriander and cardamom in the top; gets sweeter and more like whipping cream in the drydown.
Fragrantica: A beautiful, spicy amber that gets sweeter with more vanilla after several hours.
Fragrantica: When I first got this in the summer I thought it was way too rich. I kept it for fall/winter and it definitely does not disappoint. Great for the colder months. It is still very strong and very rich. It borders “too rich” and “too sweet” for me but never crosses the line. I do not get any of the sour herbal notes as others have posted. To me it is straight up rich, deep amber and vanilla with a hint of cream. I don’t really exactly detect the coriander or cardamom but I can “feel” them there supporting and broadening the heavier notes. There is a boozy quality, maybe whiskey-ish, but it’s faint. I wouldn’t say it’s unisex but I feel like it would lean masculine on a man and lean feminine on a woman (not sure it that makes sense).
