I am so so disappointed. I almost cried literally. I might sound stupid but I only had 25$ visa gift card to spend on literally what ever I wanted for Christmas. The first time in 11 years for Christmas no joke. I spent hours & hours researching all the amber oils out there. I have the real I mean the 💯% real authentic stuff from years ago and it only has a few drops left. But it's the real deal and smells exactly like real amber scent. Its very expensive and they don't make it anymore but I save the last few drops for reference. Well I've tried other ambers and they smell like it but don't last long. So after a several days and I mean countless hours researching every amber oil out there. I choose this one. My one and only shot to buy a perfume oil for my self because I can only wear oils and my skin only tolerates and loves amber. I haven't got a Christmas gift in over 11 years and I haven't bought something for my self since I had I got pregnant and had my daughter almost 8 years ago. So I had to be super picky since this was my once in a life time pruchase for me since my income doesn't allow me to buy ANYTHING for my self right now. No joke I have holes in my clothes and etc... its that bad my daughter comes first
Well I was so excited to get this and I got it today. First smell it smelled awful and nothing like amber. I waited a few hours and sure enough smells way to floral cheap perfume smell. When I tell you it smells nothing I mean nothing at all like amber, I can't lie. I never write reviews either because it takes to much time when I am super busy. But being this was my one shot to get perfume for my self because I don't have anything but deodorant I decided to go with an oil because my skin and low thyroid disease and oil works best for me and I made a very important decision to buy this one after reading hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of reviews. I really want to cry even writting this because now my one shot is gone and I have this oil that smells nothing like amber. Its strong for sure and it stays on for sure but I am telling you I have a nose for scents and perfumes of all kinds is my things. Some girls love shoes and purses. I love smelling good. This doesn't even smell a tiny little bit like amber at all. Its not musky, it's not woody, it doesn't smell like resin or vanilla or earthy in anyways. I almost can't believe it and I feel like this is some bad joke. I don't know what to do. I'm at lost right now. Please make sure you buy a small one if your getting this before getting the big one because I am telling you, even my husband and my friend said it smells nothing like amber. Not even close like from a whole tower scent profile. Wow very sad Christmas for me I was looking forward to smelling good for me and my husband for Christmas day which is only day off once a year. I'm sorry I am dragging this out. If you just knew the whole back story you would totally understand why I am venting like this.
