A unique visual signature based on accords, character, and seasonality
Bergamot strikes first with unexpected brightness, immediately colliding with cocoa's earthy bitterness and amber's resinous warmth. It's an almost disorienting contrast—citrus and chocolate shouldn't work this well together, yet here they create an addictive tension that pulls you back for repeated inhalations.
Cinnamon unfurls with genuine heat, not the safe, commercial kind but something closer to freshly ground bark with its volatile oils still potent. Vanilla begins weaving through, softening the spice's sharp edges whilst the amber deepens, growing richer and more molten as it settles into skin's warmth.
The composition consolidates into a skin-close veil of ambered vanilla with persistent spice flickering at its edges. That initial cocoa bitterness has melted into the resinous base, leaving behind something smooth, warm, and quietly insistent—a scent memory that clings to clothing and resurfaces unexpectedly when you move.
Alambar doesn't whisper—it announces itself with the bold confidence of spice-dusted amber meeting dark chocolate. Enrico Buccella has crafted something that sits at the crossroads between gourmand indulgence and resinous warmth, where cocoa powder mingles with bergamot's citric brightness in an unexpectedly harmonious opening. This isn't your typical amber; it's been dragged through a Moroccan spice market and emerged wearing a velvet cloak of vanilla-laced cinnamon.
The composition reads like a love letter to amber's more extroverted possibilities, with that 88% accord forming the backbone whilst spice (maxed at 100%) provides the swagger. The cocoa here isn't sweet confectionery—it's raw, slightly bitter, with bergamot cutting through to prevent the whole affair from becoming cloying. As cinnamon and vanilla emerge, they create this compelling push-pull between heat and comfort, between exotic and familiar.
