The Trained Nose

Note

Black Amber

Carried by 12 fragrances in this catalogue

Black Amber smells of amber, and is almost always printed in the base.

What it is

It sits on amber.
Every fragrance here is measured on the same twenty-four axes.
How loud far-carrying
It reads from across a room at ordinary strength.
How long it lasts tenacious
Still there at the end of the day.
