ambergris

Salty, warm, slightly marine, like skin and ocean rocks at once. Real ambergris (a sperm whale secretion) is rare and ethically fraught; modern fragrances use synthetic accords like Ambroxan that capture the radiance without the source. Famous for making fragrances feel "lit from within."

Also known as: ambergris accord, gray amber
