Clio Ambre Dark Leather

Clio Ambre Dark Leather, a 2020 release from Le Chameau worn by anyone, is a spiced, mossy woody scent with amber and leather beneath. Everyone who describes it uses spicy, green and woody together, and about half add ambery and leathery.

The notes are listed as one group and fall into three layers. Spices and spicy notes give the lift, a warm, dry heat rather than a fresh opening. Oakmoss and moss provide the green side, damp, earthy and slightly bitter in the manner of a classic chypre, with patchouli adding its dark, soil-like depth. Sandalwood brings a creamy wood, amber a resinous warmth, and leather a smooth, dry, slightly smoky finish that ties the whole together.

The result reads as a dark, grounded composition: more forest floor and old leather than sweetness or flowers. It suits anyone who likes mossy, earthy scents with spice and would rather have depth than brightness.
