Amber pour Homme is a premier fragrance by Prada and a perennial favourite. It first hit the shelves in 2006. Also called aromatic water, eaux de toilette, such as this one, are weaker than parfums and thus offer a shorter "staying power" of between 2-3 hours. Because they are light, they are the go-to choice for on-the-job wear. A Symphonic Composition

The perfume opens with top notes of green notes, bergamot, terragon and red fruits. Next middle notes of honey, rose, ylang-ylang, carnations and jasmine fill the air. As these waft away, they uncover the base of benzoin, vanilla, oak moss, sandalwood, amber, patchouli and musk. (Patchouli, Pogostemon cablin, is a flowering plant closely related to mint. Its smell is often described as intoxicating.) The warm, sensual notes of this oriental make it a top choice for evening wear. Prada-Fragrances Price UK
