What does Al Ambra Eclat smell like?
The top of Eclat is fruit: pear, tangerine and bergamot. Pear is juicy and mild, tangerine tangy, bergamot bright and a little bitter.
The heart is taken almost entirely from one tree. Neroli and orange blossom both come from the flower of the bitter orange, the first distilled and green, the second richer and honeyed. Jasmine joins them as a second white flower. The base is soft and warm: vanilla, amber, white musk and benzoin, a resin that itself has a vanilla-like sweetness. Citrus over orange blossom over a light amber is a familiar structure for a bright floral.
What Al Ambra says about Eclat
The brand's label for Eclat is a modern citrus floral: fresh, citrusy and floral, with a slight sweetness. Spring and summer are the seasons it names, daily wear and the office the occasions. The projection is moderate, by the brand's own account.
Who is Al Ambra Eclat for?
Al Ambra lists Eclat for women; title and details agree. Its notes are for people who like orange blossom but find a full white floral too much: here the flower is lightened by neroli and three fruits, and no tuberose stands beside it. Pear suits those who want a mild, juicy start instead of a sharp one. And if you need some warmth under a citrus scent, the base supplies four soft notes, vanilla and benzoin the sweet ones among them.
Al Ambra Eclat Extrait de Parfum, 100 ml: size and concentration
Eclat is an extrait de parfum, and its bottle holds 100 ml, or 3.4 fl oz. Al Ambra shows no other size. The brand gives it a moderate oil richness, one step below the moderate to high it gives Belleza, and a French-inspired blend style. Both scents belong to the 9 extraits in this guide that come in 100 ml.
Al Ambra Eclat compared with its closest siblings
Belleza has half of Eclat's ten notes: bergamot, orange blossom, jasmine, vanilla and white musk. Format and audience match too, a 100 ml extrait de parfum for women. What Eclat adds is light and fruity, pear and tangerine at the top and neroli in the heart, plus amber and benzoin for a warmer base. What it leaves out is tuberose and cedar. If Belleza seems too dense with white flowers, Eclat is the airier pyramid of the two.
Orlina is built on the same flowers as Eclat: neroli, orange blossom and jasmine, with amber as a fourth shared note. It is an eau de parfum where Eclat is an extrait de parfum, both in 100 ml and both for women. The fruits differ, lemon and raspberry there, pear, tangerine and bergamot here. So does the rest. Orlina adds gardenia, white honey and patchouli, Eclat vanilla, white musk and benzoin. Honey and earth against vanilla and musk: that is the difference to weigh.
Paradise Valley is the smaller bottle, a 50 ml extrait de parfum for women, and shares jasmine, vanilla, amber and white musk with Eclat. Its fruit is pineapple and apple, its extra flowers are rose and magnolia, and it lists two woods, cashmere wood and cedar. Eclat has no wood on its list and no rose. It stays with citrus and orange blossom: pear, tangerine, bergamot, neroli, orange blossom and benzoin are its own.
Where to buy Al Ambra Eclat in Europe
The plain answer is that Eclat cannot be bought at FragranceGems right now. This guide is published by that shop, an independent reseller, and it would rather say so than send you in circles. A request form sits behind the button below. It asks the shop to consider the scent; it is not a reservation, and the answer may be no. Among the scents the shop sells, Black Forest Elixir has the most in common: bergamot, orange blossom, vanilla and white musk, plus mandarin and orange on the citrus side. Bergamot and white musk are also in Dubai Musk.
