Created by perfumer Antoine Lie, Ambre Supreme is a technical showcase designed to showcase the true, unadulterated beauty of Natural Ambergris. Utilizing a staggering 10% concentration of Ambergris tincture (sourced from blocks aged for years), Lie avoids the heavy, synthetic sweetness often associated with "amber" accords. Instead, he highlights the mineral, salty, and animalic facets of the real material. It is a fragrance of "sacred clarity," acting as a shimmering, sophisticated veil that evolves uniquely on every wearer's skin.

What does Ambre Supreme smell like? Salty, mineral and luminous rather than sweet. Aldehydes, clary sage, pink pepper and cardamom open it, jasmine, neroli and patchouli form the heart, and a 10% natural ambergris tincture with immortelle gives it a warm, skin-like glow. Composed by Antoine Lie.
Is it a typical amber fragrance? No. Most ambers are built on sweet resins; this one is built on real ambergris, so it is saltier, airier and more animalic.
Should I sample it first? Yes. Ambergris behaves differently on different skin. The 1.5mL sample is the easy way to try it first.
