Houbigant Les Ambres – Deep and warm ambery trails

Houbigant Les Ambres: deep and warm ambery trails

The amber line of the historic maison

Les Ambres is the ambery collection of Houbigant Paris, maison founded in 1775. Four creations with warm, deep and signature trails, that celebrate the great French amber tradition through the prism of the oldest perfume house in the world. A complementary line to the Orientale Collection, focused this time exclusively on the amber-vanilla-tonka register.

The four creations of Les Ambres

Les Ambres brings together Ambre Rubis Extrême, Tonka Sublime, Vanille Impériale and Ambre Noir — four compositions that explore all the facets of the amber accord: from the ruby ember (Ambre Rubis Extrême) to the imperial vanilla, via the deep darkness of black amber.

A reading of amber loyal to French heritage

Les Ambres cultivates the great French amber tradition, that of Shalimar (Guerlain, 1925), Habanita (Molinard, 1921), Obsession (Calvin Klein, 1985) and so many other founding ambery — soft, powdery, vanillic, sometimes smoky. Houbigant inscribes itself in this great tradition with its century-old writing, offering ambery for connoisseurs of the family.

Who is Les Ambres for, and when to wear it?

Les Ambres speaks to lovers of warm and signature ambery perfumery, who seek deep, comforting trails. Creations sit in the ambery, vanilla, oriental and gourmand families, and shine particularly in autumn and winter. If you enjoy Les Ambres, you will also want to explore Initio Side Effect, Tiziana Terenzi and Profumum Roma — three other ambery signatures at Soleil d'Or.
