Ambre Sultan 确实是一款极好的琥珀参考香水,适合那些想进一步了解这一香水家族的人,但它的意义远不止于此。这款琥珀是目前市场上最好的琥珀之一,在网上能买到如此便宜的琥珀,实在令人印象深刻。它将琥珀带入了一个比你想象中更芳香的方向。琥珀的香气本身就非常浓郁--大量干燥、厚重的树脂和粉末状的木香中夹杂着丝丝甜腻的香草味。然而,在香味变得过于热烈之前,这种浓郁的草本芳香开始发挥作用,让人感到无比崇高;闻起来像月桂叶,既干燥又翠绿,带着叶香和茎香,不知为何与对立的香调形成了完美的互补。我非常喜欢这款香水,它是 Serge Lutens 最出色的香水之一。我非常喜欢这款样品香水,希望很快就能买到一整瓶。令人难以置信的香水。
If I'd never smelled Interlude Man I'd think this was the best amber ever, but it's very similar, but slightly inferior to the Amouage for me.
The first 10 minutes were almost a scrub situation for me. It was a cacophonous blur of heavy and biting herbs in resin. After 30 minutes, I started coming around on it. The unsweet vanilla does a lot to take the blend to a place that makes sense. I like the amber at this point and the warmth is very well done. Deep dry down is very pleasant but not as interesting and too much patchouli. Overall I'd find it challenging to wear this with any regularity. Agree with others that it's a little weak sillage/longevity especially given the scent profile.
I remember trying this few years ago and the power of the scent was overwhelming. It was so harsh and brash that I didn’t know when to wear it even if I loved it a lot. That time I wore quite crowd pleasing scents. I don’t like when so many (almost all) scents are diluted nowadays and they are just a shadow of their former glory. I have to admit that now Ambre Sultan is very wearable, it’s sophisticated and the notes are performing charmingly yet still opulent. Anyway it’s too bright compared to the older formulation - not only the color but the nature of the juice as well and what is, or what was, Serge Lutens dna, is gone. Almost all adjectives how to describe this are the opposite like it used to be and sorry to say but this new formula is somewhat redundant in my collection. I think I will give this one to my husband since it performs darker and denser on his skin while it still remains light enough for everyday use. Ambre Sultan is warm mix of Resins, Myrrh, Benzoin, spices, herbs and Amber with Vanilla and Patchouli which is quite hidden in the new formula. Vanilla in the new formula is more prominent than in the old one and it’s the note which makes this smell too generic. Old formula is very complex whilst the new one is linear. Some day I will try to find a very old vintage bottle just because it’s a splendid and sublime piece of history what comes to Amber scents.

这款香水是 Serge Lutens 的经典香水之一,我曾经尝试过,但直到现在才真正了解它。我能说什么呢?Ambre Sultan 是一款令人沉醉的琥珀香水,坦率地说,它是最好的香水之一......这一点也不奇怪。它包含了我喜欢的所有香味...温暖的琥珀、树脂香料、檀香和香草带来的淡淡奶油味。难得的是,琥珀的香味如此扑面而来,但我却不会有鼻孔灼热的感觉,即使是我最喜欢的一些琥珀香味浓郁的香水也是如此。我认为这是因为这款香水的成分非常好,浓郁而顺滑,是一款真正的好香水。
这闻起来像教堂的香。我能闻到的只有天主教堂的味道。完全不知道怎么会有人推荐这款香水?
