Woody

Ambrette seed smells like warm, honeyed musk with a distinctly woody-amber undertone—imagine the scent of toasted almond skin mixed with dry, sun-warmed driftwood and a whisper of something animalic and sensual. There's an almost creamy sweetness to it, reminiscent of warm honey drizzled over cedarwood, with subtle spiced notes that recall clove or cardamom lingering in the background. It's simultaneously edible and earthy, neither purely floral nor purely wood—occupying a fascinating middle ground that feels both comforting and mysteriously sophisticated.
