About This Perfume
Vertus Amber Elixir comes across as Spiced wine grapes, rum, and warm resin. It opens with dried fruits, black pepper and davana, moves into amber, cashmere and cedar and settles on castoreum, musk and sandalwood. It reads unisex.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, fall and winter and is an evening scent. A good pick for date nights. Released in 2015.
Wearers report that it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length. Wearers suggest letting a new bottle rest for a couple of weeks; it tends to smooth out.
