Nice and warm spicy scent

Received this cologne today, as my FIRST Scentbird order. The dispenser doesn’t work! What do I do now? The little that leaks out has a wonderful scent! Unfortunately, this pump dispenser is completely useless. Send out a NEW one, if you want a better rating.

Sweet and musky

Even though I love most of the notes, this went on a nasty combination of gingered fruits that got right up my nose and almost hurt. It rapidly settled to a super-spiced vanilla incense with a marked resinous olibanum base, but retained the gingery fruits enough that it smelled very perfumey to me, it that makes sense; Perfume-y in a synthetic, forced combination of notes that represent something fashioned by force rather than combined to the benefit of the whole. Ultimate dry down had a lovely ice cream vanilla amber feel, but the ginger and other notes remained strong and ultimately I grew to hate it. Good side for those who like it: it absolutely WILL NOT DIE. It is powerful and pervasive and has amazing staying power. I couldn't kill it and I tried over and over, all day, for hours. What was left was a very close skin scent of powdery vanilla amber with bright, distinct lavender and ginger. I have given it to my sister, but I suspect it's too loud for her too. Two stars for longevity and the fact that it will work for others.

This is an absolute gorgeous amber and incense unisex winter gem. It's warm, inviting, sexy, and mysterious. This is not an overly sweet or vanilla-centric amber but it's not too dense and resinous. The frankincense hits you heavy up top and leaves a flowing trail of semi-sweet amber accords in its wake. Think Interlude Man by Amouage but draped in a warm liquid amber. An easy 7 out of 5.

Not my scent

So many compliments. Fresh, light, enticing

Ambre Nomade is a smooth take on the amber accord, it's rich and full-bodied with a rounded, polished feel. It falls somewhere between Ambre 114 by Histoires de Parfums and Kalimantan by Chantecaille but without all the raspy powder and sharpness. That isn't to say that Ambre Nomade isn't powdery, it is, but it's very smooth and velvety. All the classic elements that make a good amber are here but with a sticky twist, the apple and apricot blended with resins and florals add a yummy fruit compote flavor that I just love. There's a bit of a spicy kick in the opening too, a little bit of an eye-opener but nothing jarring or harsh. I'm seriously considering a full bottle of this!

stops the room when it is in the air

i received so many compliments, I really liked this scent.

Makes me smell like an old lady

IT'S VERY INVITING IT TRULY STANDS ALONE

The worst smelling fragrance I've gotten from Scentbird. Washed it off immediately.

This perfume is subtle and very long lasting. It has a grounded aroma that doesn’t smell fake or like you put on too much of something. I’m more of a musk, Amber sandlewood go to, this perfume did not disappoint. I received so many compliments on how it set with my body chemistry. Would definitely buy the full version of this.

This scent is very... heavy... thick? Not sure if that makes sense. Its a really rich dark scent. It isn't BAD, just not one I would recommend unless you like weighty, creamy scents.

I like this, but I don't get apricot at all. Lots of spice, patchouli, amber, burnt sugar, no apricot or any fruit to me. I probably won't order again. But I enjoy trying it. I think it's for sure a fall / winter scent, very strong and long lasting on me. I like it best about 2 hours in.

I loved this scent it smells amazing and I still have some left over

I loved this scent for the Amber notes and and how long it lasted. One spray on one wrist and I felt like it was just there all night. It’s definitely a winter or fall fragrance, or something where you want to be reminded of fireplaces and wine and the holidays. But it does have a sophisticated sense to it that I am not sure young people would enjoy unless they like Amber scent in the first place. It’s not an old lady scent, just very much meant for a woman and not a teenager. My husband loved it. I tried it on and got in bed and smelled it all night. It was comforting and relaxing and beautiful. Reminded me of winter nights.

I did not like the combination, it smelled very pungent

Didn’t really like the smell it was a little too strong for me and smelled more like a men’s cologne

First, this scent is very strong. On warm skin, it projects at least 10-12 feet. This would be fine if it didn't smell like concentrated urine. The patchouli is overwhelming, too. Overall, the blend is not harmonious. The combo of labdanum, normally a beautiful sweet resin, and the lavender, which is also pleasant note normally, combine with the patchouli to create a sour, dirty scent. The ginger is also powerful for the first hour and adds to the nose-penetrating power. The citrus and sage are non-existant due to the strength of the other notes. I would think a bit of sage might¹ balance the other notes. Saddest of all, the vanilla note is destroyed, even on drydown. I seriously feel I need a bath and I only sprayed once. Perhaps skin chemistry is an issue for me - It might work for you. Some types of patchouli are terrible on me. I was hoping for more incense, but the patchouli cancelled out any good. Meanwhile, I can't recommend this for anyone who wants a "polite" scent. I wonder if I was sent the correct scent. I've tried many amber fragrances and this was the first one I'd be afraid to wear anywhere. P.S. - I own many amber and resinous fragrances, niche and designer. I love looking on the LuckyScent website for inspiration!

My perfume collection is getting big...and this will be added to it!

Scentbird refuses to send me what I subscribed, paid for and ordered. Interesting how they get my money but give me nothing but excuses. I want what I ordered Scentbird. I'm not listening to any more of your stupid emails about "We're overloaded with emails but will be with you soon. thanks for your patience...." NOPE. Send me what I paid for, subscribed to and selected in trade for taking my money from PayPal.

A combination of berries & woodesy smell

Very wonderful and light. Last all day. My favorite for sure.

A little sweet, a little spicy. More of a casual scent that seems to work well with my body.

Very spicy amber scent. I didn't like this perfume when I first sprayed it because the musk notes were super strong but after it had settled on my skin and warmed up (about half an hour later) the amber and spice came out. I absolutely fell in love with this scent. Great for winter. Could be too strong for the office if you are sensitive or looking for a perfume you can reapply midday.

Smells too much like an old lady

I don’t really like the smell of It. But i could get used to It.

Ambre Nomade is everything it promises to be, so I feel bad giving it only 2 stars (I just want this bloody algorithm to actually work for me one day!). It's too sweet for my tastes, and just slightly more mature than I'd prefer (but please, not the dreaded 'old lady' insult people here like to tag on so many great fragrances! Sorry, I digress...) so I'm thinking of giving it to my mother-in-law-but I think even she might not be the type. What I am trying to say, (in this very rambling review) is that this is a loud scent (the ginger! The rosemary!), and you definitely have to be up for carrying it. The sillage is medium/strong (what my tropical roots tell me a perfume is supposed to be) and longevity is at least five hours. It stands up to the brand's quality and for once I'm not at all concerned that Scentbird sent me a dupe (or worse!). In summary: it's worth the price, I learned I don't like apricot in some interpretations, and that though personally I love how the sage shines through--I just think I would prefer it in a more fresh, maybe aquatic, rendition. I like the citrus layer, but not the powdery aspects. If you love layered perfumes that tell a story, give it a try before you buy. I did enjoy sniffing out the apple and understated lavender; not an office scent for sure, and maaaaybe unisex for the right man (IMO).

My whole car now smells like this, in itself not a bad thing, but the product came in broken and leaked all over the place.

Its a bit off-putting when you first spray it but it settles really well

Based off of the notes I thought that this would be a bit sweeter but instead I think that the notes of ginger, patchouli, and apricot turned a bit sour on my skin.

I absolutely love this fragrance! I have attained so many compliments from co workers to friends. It has a very rich smell to it and perfect for the winter and fall seasons.

Can we stop with the "smells like an old lady" reviews? I see this on every single perfume, which is very unhelpful. How is it old ladies smell like every perfume under the sun? Please give actual details about what the notes smell like.

I received many compliments on this scent.

This fragrance is perfect for winter it’s intense to the point it comes off strong but soften to a fresh smell and that I got lots of compliments on .. I would recommend for a woman who is bold and confident and not afraid to show it ..

I don't get soft sweet and Amber. I get loud and awful like old patchouli. I don't know if mine was bad or old but it was nasty.

This has surprisingly become one of my favorites. I lean more towards the spice scents versus florals, but this has a mix of spice, fruit and herbs. It is not too strong/overpowering but it has stamina and stays with you all day. I will be buying the full size of this.

Not quite sure I like this scent! It has a hint of musk and masculinity. It is a unisex scent but I think it should be a masculine scent!

This scent is so strong and quite obnoxious. It's smells like old men in a leather shop.

This fragrance garnered me compliments all day though its projection isn't strong or offensive. People were just leaning in and asking if I used lotion or what that scent was? It was in the fifties today and sunny, which I think is perfect fall weather for a fragrance like this. It's oriental, but not at all heavy. Rather, it's feminine and floral and spicy and warm and balanced with a just a touch of skin scent and woods that grounds it plus a bit of powder, too. It's really quite incredible what Elisire accomplished here. It's like an updated version of the 80's powerhouse fragrances, but totally approachable and wearable even in the office. Good liquid, and doesn't take a lot of sprays to last all day, either. I get an easy eight hours from three sprays, and may use less in spring.

This scent is a little heavier than I am used to, but not over powering. Definitely can smell the ginger (which I love) but the blend with the sweetness is perfect. this is also the only perfume I have actually received compliments on from the opposite sex!

OLD LADY LOUD AND LONG LASTINGLY LOUD HORRIBLE

I really love this one. Its the 2nd time i ordered this. Its not really strong smelling.

Don’t like this one at all!

First scentbird I have gotten that I immediately just HATED. I tried to pass it off to my friends for free and they still wanted nothing to do with it.. I don't know if I'm missing something.. but this smell is very very "old lady" smelling. I like woodsy, old, natural smells and reading the note description this seems like all of the things I usually like. But no. Absolutely not. Yuk.

Strong initially, but after about a half hour it was pleasantly spicy. Lasted most of the day for me without reapplication. I smelled mostly amber with light notes of ginger and vanilla.

Amber with a bit of vanilla and complex fruit. Strong profile, long-lasting, sophisticated, and not a bit immature. I will purchase this.

This scent has just a bit too much patchouli, but the other notes are quite nice. It is definitely a strong, spicy scent.

I got lots of compliments on this. I wore it for work, and ever day use. Women loved it on me. I got smells of ylang ylang, vanillia, and some light cedar smells. I would reorder this one.

This was rich at first then thick with powdery amber after a while, lasting with a warm scent. One of my favorites so far!

This is a spicy, bourbon-colored, powdery oriental for autumn nights. Lovely dry down, extremely cozy & comforting. Subtle patchouli is present in the background, which keeps it sexy and moody, but vanilla & amber reign. Campfire smoke, cinnamon, and incense also come to mind

Warm and unusual. A spicy take on an amber perfume. I would wear it anytime, day or night, warm or cool weather, but I’m more the type to wear a perfume based on mood anyway.

Powerull elixir of seduction and romance. Not old lady like. Just purely intoxicating. Everyone around me clings to my scent. It stops people in mid speech to ask what is that amazing smell.

I semi enjoyed this scent. I think it smelled too "old" for me at age 20. almost like something my grandmother would wear. However when I layered this scent with sweet perfumes, it really was pleasant.

First, I don't understand why a man would review a perfume ;P Now to the good stuff. This perfume is everything I expected it to be and more. It's not for everyone, and comes on strong when you first spray it. The drydown is soft and beautiful. The reason I left off 1 star is that it has no sillage. The scent fades very quickly and reapplication is a must. I am definitely getting cinnamon in the dry down and I absolutely adore fragrances with cinnamon! Remember Estee Lauder's Cinnabar? I'm not a note-worthy person...but I do know what I like. This scent has it all: Incense-y - CHECK! Spicy - CHECK! Intense, sexy notes - CHECK! This scent reminds me of a church at high mass, or a dark little hole in the wall store that offers anything esoteric while burning Nag Champa. It reminds me of walking through kiosks in the burning hot Moroccan sun looking at Persian rugs for sale. It reminds me of the Earth, walking under the moonlight in a long dark robe cherishing life and wondering what else there is... If you like deep, mysterious fragrances that are not in the mainstream this fragrance is definitely for you!

It was ok but too strong it kind of had more like a female perfume after awhile it was still to strong i liked cause it stay on all day but the smell was a bit too strong.

Smells really good

Doesn't smell good

This perfume I did not like at all. It is very strong and reminds me of a perfume my grandmother used to wear. I love amber, but this scent was not good.

Not too sweet with warm undertones.

Holy moly this is a strong perfume! Definitely cannot wear this to work. It's nice once it mellows out, but it takes a LONG time to do that.

This is a great fragrance once it settles on your skin. It does smell medicinal when you first put it on, but then transforms into a lovely scent that lasts all day.

This is gorgeous! The apricot is sweet, the amber is rich and the entire scent seems to glow from the inside out. It is strong but not overpoweringly so (still, I use a judicious hand when spraying this one). The dry down is smoky and resinous but still has an element of sweetness. Spillage and longevity are both in the large domain—-not beastly, but still big. It reminded me of 80’s orientals having a fling with smoky incense.

My initial impression was gorgeous but this one goes through distinct stages of variable scents, some great, some not but overall long-lasting. I prefer it as a home fragrance rather than on me.

I normally love spicy sexy scents. They just work so well with my body chemistry. Unfortunately this particular perfume wasn’t to my liking. The patchouli notes were overwhelming so as to overpower everything else. It reminds me of incense as soon as it’s sprayed.

Not a fan of it...smells masculine.

Not your typical scent and that is why I like!

I feel like I should be draped in the finest silk, lounging on the plushest velvet. Strong individual notes which settles down to woodsy, earthy spicy scent. I live that my scarf now smells of it!!

It was a but strong but it reminded me of winter time ! The holidays

This scent goes on strong but fades allot . It’s got a very deep spicy scent that is very warm and pleasing but I can’t smell it at all by mid day.
