Amber: The Warm Note of Niche Perfumery in Grasse
Amber is an essential warm and sensual note in niche perfumery from Grasse. More than a single raw material, it is an olfactory blend combining resins, vanilla and woods, creating a soft, enveloping and slightly oriental sensation. Discover our 18 amber-based creations made at 28 Rue Amiral de Grasse, 06130.

Understanding Amber as Raw Material in Niche Perfumery
Contrary to what its name suggests, perfume amber is not an isolated natural substance but a complex accord generally composed of labdanum, vanilla, musk, and sometimes balsamic notes like benzoin or toluidine. At Grasse Atelier, we have mastered this subtle balance for generations, thanks to our laboratory located in the historic center of Grasse, world capital of perfume.
Amber brings depth, warmth and elegance to fragrant compositions. In our range of 18 oriental fragrances, it plays alternately the role of persistent base note (Ambre Sauvage, Empire Boisé), or central accord around which spices and precious woods revolve. With our minimum concentrations of 20%, amber notes persist 8-12 hours on skin — far superior to conventional eau de toilettes.
- Ambre Sauvage — Exotic spices (saffron, cinnamon), vanilled tobacco, sandalwood and vetiver
- Épices d'Ambre — Gourmand notes raspberry, nutmeg, cocoa around an amber heart
- Empire Boisé — Saffron, jasmine, cedar for an energetic masculine interpretation
- Musc Noir Impérial — Angelica, rose elemi combined with luxurious amber
