Atelier Materi - Bois d'Ambrette – Eau de Parfum

Atelier Materi BOIS D'AMBRETTE Eau de Parfum

The subtlety of botanical musk in an exquisite creation

With BOIS D'AMBRETTE, Atelier Materi celebrates the rare beauty of ambrette seeds, a natural source of plant-based musk. Harvested by hand in the tropical dry forests of northern Peru, the seeds are dried under the sun, carefully sifted and refined to release their unique, powdery-floral aroma. Perfumer Marie Hugentobler transforms this precious raw material into a fragrance of exceptional finesse, enriched with fruity, woody, and musky undertones.

A fragrance as soft as skin

The opening reveals the bright, uplifting notes of mandarin and angelica, creating a fresh and lightly spiced introduction. At its heart, ambrette radiates its sensual, creamy nuances, evoking a delicate and intimate warmth. The base of sandalwood and ambroxan adds both depth and long-lasting elegance, leaving a gentle, glowing trail. BOIS D'AMBRETTE feels like the touch of warm skin – tender, soft, and effortlessly sophisticated.

Amyris – a sustainable warmth

An essential element of this fragrance is Amyris, also known as West Indian sandalwood. Harvested in the Caribbean and South America, its essential oil is obtained through steam distillation and is cherished for its warm, slightly sweet, balsamic character. Amyris acts as a natural fixative, enhancing the longevity of the fragrance while adding a velvety woodiness that complements the ambrette beautifully.
