Ambre Nuit from the Colognes Dior collection
The image is both fascinating and insanely elegant. On the scent side, this translates into a pure and spicy blend of ambergris, tea, leather and incense. The whole thing turns out to be both “opulent and passionate”, worthy of the great notoriety of the old tsars.
Parfum d'Empire soaks up the holiday mood in St. Petersburg

The champagne would flow freely and its gilding would echo the sparkling reflections of the crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling ... Such is the setting set by Marc-Antoine Corticchiato in his Ambre Russe fragrance. Prepare to experience a real journey through time and space!
The all-powerful Russian Amber
Russian Ambre is a perfume that better symbolizes the baroque and sumptuous opulence of Russia than any other. It also has the color of molten gold. He seems to have caught the light, although it has indeed disappeared from Russian lands for many years now. Ambre Russe is a fragrance synonymous with excess, both sparkling and intoxicating like champagne, but which can also display a certain fresh and invigorating brutality similar to a good glass of vodka. Flavors of cinnamon and coriander, meanwhile, evoke the Russian tea sipped throughout the day by the aristocrats in the heart of the datchats, sort of islets of private property inherited from the Russian Empire. Russian Amber thus has a slightly smoky flavor blending into a birch trail, of cade wood and leather. Finally, light incense fumaroles are reminiscent of the typical scent of Orthodox churches. Musk also sublimates all of its captivating sensuality without half measures.
