BDK Parfums Ambre Saffrano, Sample
BDK Parfums Ambre Saffrano is a unisex scent released in 2022. The prized and highly expensive note of saffron makes the perfect opening accord in this rich, complex and luxurious creation from the esteemed modern niche house of BDK. The opening bursts forth with the vibrant, slightly leathery whisper of saffron, enhanced by the piquant touch of black pepper oil from Madagascar. This spicy introduction is softened by the juicy and slightly tart plum accord, creating a captivating contrast that is both bold and inviting.
As it unfolds, the heart of the fragrance reveals an exquisite Turkish rose, which adds a lush and velvety character. This is beautifully offset by the smoky, resinous depth of olibanum absolute, while the black leather accord introduces a dark, seductive edge. Together, these notes create a magnetic and unforgettable scent, enveloping the wearer in a warm, sophisticated aura.
In the base, the fragrance settles into a rich tapestry of textures, where the smooth creaminess of sandalwood oil from New Caledonia mingles with the earthy, woody tones of oakwood CO2 from France. This is enriched by the sweet and comforting presence of vanilla bean extract CO2 from Madagascar, which adds a touch of warmth and opulence. The interplay of these elements results in an alluring dry-down that lingers gracefully, leaving a lasting impression.
