Ambergris is not whale poop it's whale vomit when they eat shellfish they can't digest the beaks so they spit it back up it ends up on Driftwood or something and then is on the Sea Foam and then it is turned into ambergris for perfume there's no way it's poop
I believe Ambergris is more like a pearl, where it's the secretions that a whale makes to coat undigestible irritants so that it can pass it. It's everything the whale couldn't digest and some kind of biological concrete that binds it all together. If you ever dissected an owl pellet as a kid, it's roughly the whale equivalent. Comes out of the whale all stinky and quite soft, I hear. Then it floats around and reacts with the sea water and sunlight and hardens up and oxidizes into compounds that are actually useful in perfumery. Ambroxan is one of the many many compounds that is found in natural Ambergris.
I love Ambergris! I’ve struggled with Amber fragrances, don’t like Ambre Sultan and tried Ambre Nuit as an intro but it just smells powdery on me. I tried a sample of Ormond Jayne Tolu with a bunch of conifers and that one has been fine but wasn’t my favorite. I’ll have to try Grand Soir since everyone seems to like that one.
Grand Soir is Vanilla Amber and Tonka Bean: Sweet! With many niche frags you can tell the transitions from Top Heart base notes IMO GS it’s a linear scent, but sooo BEAUTIFUL!👍🏾 I have Amber Nuit. You can smell the rose amber and florals I have Ambre Russe and it liquor and a little smoke and they say leather also If you want the purest type of Amber Frag it would be GS....so yummy!
Great choice of scents. On the ambergris side I can also recommend Silence the Sea by Strangelove NYC. On the amber side Ambre Premier by Jovoy, Ambre Intense by Nicolai and NY Amber by Bond nr9.
I love Amber!! Very informative video and definitely made me appreciate more the amber of plant origin and not animal. I've never tried Ambre Sultan from Serge lutens. Definitely a future buy!! Thank you so much for this video and your advices in general!! Perfume world is so confusing sometimes with so many products! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I'm going to be controversial but I think we get fed a lot of false information due to our naivety, for example talked into believing that a fecal smell proves the authenticity of Ambergris. I believe that the more fecal Ambergris is, the more lower grade it is. High grade Ambergris does not need to smell fecal (or have bad facets to it) at all. And the really good Ambergris can smell like a warm smooth ambroxan, but better and multidimensional. Same with Oud (although off topic). People in the Middle East tell me that "barnyard" oud is considered low quality there, and that good oud should not smell bad like that. To add another layer on controversy, I think most of this revolves around a dislike of "designer" fragrances, and if Ambergris or Oud smells too good in a designer fragrance, if mustn't be authentic.
Once again another interesting and informative video. Walk the Sea is my ride or die choice for summer. Wore it on a cruise to Alaska and it was fantastic. Great list! Ambre Russe is another excellent complex amber.
Great great video! Knowledge is the key 🙌🏽 I’m a fan of amber fragrances. Some of them is: Histoires de Parfums - Ambre 114 Armani Prive Collection - Myrrhe Impériale (OMG! What a scent!! Fantastic!) Eisenberg - Secret V Ambre D’Orient Homme Collistar - L’Ambra Franck Olivier - Amber (nice cheapie for cold weather, why not:)
I prefer amber accord fragrances over the ambergris ones. My favorite amber is Ambre Narguile by Hermes (Jean-Claude Helena). It's a beautiful gourmand, smoky, honey and boozy amber, very elegant and refined in Helena's minimalistic manner. The herbal touches (oregano and bay leaf) in Ambre Sultan prevent me to fully enjoy the amber accord.
Amber is very versatile. If I'm not mistaken, ancient amber often entraps insects from which dinosaur DNA is extracted to clone dinosaurs for Jurassic Park attractions. 🧬 Wonderful prices for amber jewelry with these inclusions is for sale in Poland. Then, of course, there is the fragrance accord.
Love, love, love MPG Ambe Precieux. I have the Ultime also, which is great but I find the "rubber" accord amped up in that one. Both are fantastic. Thanks for the info!
Hello Sebastian, I love your in depth fragrance reviews. Thanks for making it happen. I recently pulled trigger on ADP colonia Ambra. To my nose it smells similar to Tom Ford Tuscan leather. Did you also notice that similarity??.. Please do let me know, would appreciate it.. 😇😇
My partner and I watch your videos with our sample box open and try to have a smell along, any we don't have we take notes on what to try next. We are new to your channel and are both hooked!
Hello, wonderful review as always by THE EXPERT. Could you please tell me if Acqua Di Parma Ambra smells like actual ambergris & does it smell salty and musky??. Also hows the sillage of this fragrance. Thanks in advance.
@@The_Babbling_Brooks Do you know if the ambergris used in AdP Ambra is real or synthetic? The website says ambergris, but it doesn't say if it is real or an accord.
Absolutely love the amber accord. Definitely must try the Serge Lutens. I'm trying to find it at a discount in some site... I enjoy Grand Soir and Gentle fluidity gold..., Montale's amber musk as well... I don't really enjoy "sex and the Sea"... I get a kind of gasoliney smell...
Great review Sebastian, quite informative. I do love Amber Sultan and as much as I like Grand soir, I prefer Absolute pour le soir, I find it more interesting..I got got sample on Anonim and it's a lovely bomb.. My wife can't stand it..perfect for social distancing. Lol.. Cheers. Keep up the good work.
Lovely take and very informative video on these 2 important notes. Basis your study of the notes and articulating it so well for the understanding of enthusiasts, you could get a doctorate degree in perfumery! Kudos keep up the great work and stay safe.
Prince Charles Maurice de Talleyrand (Diplomat, Statesman 1756 - 1836) apparently wore "amber" and his many mistresses apparently liked it. What is the closest modern equivalent?
Hi Sebastian ! Did you know that "jara" is the name in spanish for the rock rose plant? It grows mainly all over Spain but its collected from large extensions of "jara" fields from where the labdanum resin is extracted.
Love this video. Immensely informative, and such fun to watch. A great video Sebastian! I find myself drawn more and more towards ambergris and sea based fragrances. Waiting to receive Silencethesea from Strangelove NYC next week, and I am really looking forward to it. I hate calone in fragrances, always have, and steered well clear of anything aquatic until I smelled Every Storm a Serenade, and now I'm hooked. Intrigued by Walk the Sea.
Really fantastic video absolutely enjoyed it I would like to mention Aqua di Parma mirra fragrance it has a n inscence note that I really like would you do a video on that also we call that smell Lobaan ...im Indian anyway are there any unisex ones that you know of thanks
Thank you Sebastian, such an educational and eye opening video ❤ I mean when you go online to buy perfumes read these notes listed as well as on fragrantica and you think you know what they are and how would they smell but then you come and watch your videos about different notes and accords and you get a totally different understanding of what they are, thank you again Sebastian ❤
I feel that ambergris enhances the smells of white florals and amber accord seems to be common in vintage perfumes. Do you think the more vintage a perfume is the more likely they used actual ambergris?
Hello sorry Sebastien, can I pls ask your opinion on Xerjoff Amber star? I recently got a bottle and when i spray it on my wrist it smells like very offensive alcohol. I read the reviews on several websites and did not smell anyhting like what others described.
Hi Sebastian, thank you for a great content. I enjoy your educative videos. How can you tell if a perfume contains a real ambergris or if it has ambroxin? For example ambergris is listed in quite a few Tauer Perfumes and I do not find them animalic on me.. (wearing Les Annes today, maybe at one point during the day it was tiny tiny bit animalic, but now just sweet vanilla after 9 hours...)
A good way to know if it's ambergris vs ambroxan I would smell Escentric Molecules Molecule 02 or Juliette Has A gun Not A Perfume or even something like Dior Sauvage to learn what Ambroxan smells like. The Ambergris on the other had smells musky aquatic animalic. In the strongest doses otherwise it's a sexy compliment to any fragrance. :)
@@ThePerfumeGuy Thank you Sebastian, I guess mine have just a tiny touch of Ambergris as they are as you say sexy, will try to get my hands on sample of your suggestions. By the way, I sampled and purchased two Tauer Perfumes (L'EAU and Un Rose Chypreé) based on your reviews and I am trying more and I love the Tauer DNA on my skin... dangerous for my pocket
I like ambroxan better than ambergris because it lacks the animalic after scent. I don't like the animalic scent that ambergris leaves. It can be overpowering and take away from the fragrance as a whole.
Oh I tried and should buy it. I enjoyed it the time I smelled it, it was last summer in LA. Will do sooner than later yes! I totally forgot about it! :)
Smelling Great Fragrance Reviews my batch is really strong! Projection like beast! I have also orto parisi-terroni 2019 batch, but it’s skin scent;( ohh, Seb, maybe you can do video about batch codes, and how batch codes affect to quality and longevity, reformulation. Because 2 different batch 2018 and 2019 years, smells different and have different longevity
Smelling Great Fragrance Reviews in my experience, i have givenchy gentleman parfum 2018 batch and 2019 batch. It’s 2 different fragrance! 2018 strongest projection and in my opinion sweeter, 2019 batch so synthetic😩
@@ThePerfumeGuy oh thank you! I do own a little decant and like the smell, however it smells kind of spicy almost like cinammon, warm and spicy. Not sure if ambergris is supposed to smell like that. Descriptions make ambergris sound like a more marine salty mineralic note
According to notes there's spices in addition to the Ambergris with honey and amber the accord I had mentioned. Sounds fab btw so I'll have to test again soon! :)

I prefer Ambergris as I am fond of the way it effects a fragrance overall and I love when the scent of actual ambergris is apparent.
Can’t get much more explanatory than this. 😋 nice work.
Much appreciated!
Great job, my favorite ambergris fragrances are Guerlain Encens Mythique and Creed Tabarome (original vintage version) unfortunately vaulted.

Thank you very informative as always 😊
Which has better, good performance and longevity? MFK Grand Soir or Serge Lutens Ambra Sultan?
Super informative love it thanks !
Excellent video. I live in Brazil, and I found an ambergris of approximately 20kg. Would you know any references from buyers?
Are you a billionaire now?
Good day. Sir I have a ambergris 30kg from the Philippine need legit buyer thankyou

Well that's news to me? WHOA! Thanks for telling me! :)
I can’t stand amber but I love baccarat rouge which has ambergris so it makes sense they are completely different.
No Guerlain Encens Mythique?! Jovoy Amber? I realize you have a lot to chose from but I think these two are musts IMHO. Great video though.

But my question is about original amber
Would you wear ambergris by itself and does it smell bad

Im all for amber :D

Off to Luckyscent for samples. 🙂
1:50 can you please tell me where did you get this information from.
It's common knowledge in perfumery. Labdanum, Vanilla and resins and sometimes ambergris are used to create the amber accord! :)
I need bayer please
Hy I have amblegriss
