About 422 Ambergris

422 Ambergris is a substitute accord representing an ambergris scent reference through other materials. It is part of the 422 Fragrance approach to sustainable selection and reconstruction. The designation refers to the reconstructed accord rather than natural ambergris itself.

Scent Profile

Its contribution can be considered through the materials around it. An ambergris-like depth can sit behind a cool marine impression, or within a warmer finish of woods and musk. Those settings offer different ways of understanding the same aromatic reference.

Use in Perfumery

Base combinations include frankincense-like materials and birch, or labdanum, patchouli and musk-like accords. In a marine setting, it forms part of the deeper background to freshness. In a greener composition, it can participate in the transition toward a softer, warmer finish alongside the other base elements.
