The Story
Amber Claw Blend is a rich, animalic amber that feels both primal and refined. It opens with a sharp, green note of wormwood, then settles into a warm, resinous heart of amber and labdanum. The base is a deep, musky blend of castoreum and vanilla, giving it a feral sweetness. This is a scent for those who love bold, unconventional fragrances.
