Al Ambra perfumes by scent family
The 49 Al Ambra perfumes fall into nine families. The largest is woody with 29 scents; 49 scents belong to more than one family.
How the families are made
For nearly every perfume, Al Ambra's own product page has a line called scent direction: three or four words such as fresh, woody, leathery or sweet. This guide takes those words as they are and sorts the scents by them. A scent the brand calls “spicy, warm, woody” is listed under spicy and under woody.
When the brand puts “slightly” in front of a word, the scent is named on that family's page as a side note only. Ravenna has no such line on the brand's page; for that one the families follow the classification of the shop.
