Mdci Parfums Ambre Topkapi

We admire the way the tradition and modernity meet and intertwine in this handsome, truly regal composition

The top notes are the perfumer's nod to the classic masculine scents the beginning of Ambre Topkapi is brightened by bergamot, spiced up by ginger and have a cool, herbal undertone of basil, thyme and lavender

The heart notes, with their combination of luxurious leather and soft, sweet sandalwood, add depth, warmth and what we can only described as a very “expensive” feel to the blend. In the base

vanilla and amber ornament the scent beautifully, bringing to it a wonderfully exotic feel making it evocative of faraway lands, luxurious palaces, and Eastern splendor

This unexpected exoticism is where the traditional meets modern

This ambery-vanillic warmth is also what should make Ambre Topkapi wearable for women as well as for men
