Andreas Wilhelm on the Hunt for Ambra

Ambra, the Liquid Gold of the Oceans

Formed within the depths of the sperm whale, carried across the oceans for years and eventually washed ashore on distant coasts, ambragris is considered one of the rarest and most fascinating fragrance ingredients in the world. It is no surprise that even SRF dedicated a feature to this mysterious treasure.

We are proud that our perfumer Andreas Wilhelm was part of it. Because ambra is not just another ingredient, it is the very heart of our fragrance. Warm, woody, deep and unmistakably distinctive. Its unique character is what makes it so desirable, yet so difficult to find.

Andreas Wilhelm on the hunt for ambra, because behind every exceptional fragrance lies a story of patience, coincidence and an instinct for the extraordinary.
