Sel d'Ambre from Balmain Beauty, composed by Quentin Bisch in 2024, is a salty, resinous amber with incense and a touch of tea. Everyone who describes it calls it amber, while a minority also notice green, floral and resinous facets.

Frankincense, also listed as olibanum, gives the scent a dry, lemony, smoky resin from the start, like a faint trail of temple smoke. Tea adds a soft, slightly green and tannic note that keeps the opening airy. In the heart, orris root brings a cool, powdery, earthy floral tone. The base is where the name comes from: ambergris gives a salty, mineral, skin-like radiance, and amber a warm, golden sweetness, together creating the impression of warm skin after the sea.

Unisex in spirit, it suits people who like ambers that feel clean and mineral rather than syrupy. The profile works for autumn and winter, evenings and quiet occasions, though its transparency makes it wearable by day too. Those who enjoy salty ambers and incense with a powdery iris touch should find it refined.
