Ambre Sultan is a divisive fragrance with a bold, spicy amber character that appeals to niche fragrance enthusiasts seeking non-vanilla options. However, its prominent spice accords and savory qualities are polarizing, with some finding them poorly blended or unpleasant, and it often loses out in direct comparisons to alternatives like L'Air du Desert Marocain.
