Boots is selling Jawhara's Amberwood Nomad Unisex Eau de Parfum 100ml for £14.99, and fragrance enthusiasts are calling it a 'hidden gem' that 'smells expensive'. The scent has garnered rave reviews on Amazon, where it is also priced at £14.99, with shoppers praising its longevity and balanced notes.
Fragrance Notes and Appeal
The perfume features top notes of Cardamom Oil, Elemi Oil, and Myrrh Accord, creating a warm and woody aroma. Heart notes include Leather Accord, Labdanum Absolute, and Cedarwood Oil, while base notes of Ambrostar, Patchouli Oil Madagascar, and Tonkalactone round out the scent. Reviewers describe it as 'delicious smelling' and note that it 'lasts ages'. One shopper commented: 'Smells nice and lasts. Very classic and elegant fragrance.'
Positive Reviews from Self-Proclaimed 'Cologne Snobs'
A reviewer who identified as a 'cologne snob' wrote: 'Very surprised how good it is - buy it. ... My skin doesn't respond well in general ... The only fragrance I can tell last more than a few hours is H24 - until I found this. I mean, $15 vs $200! And it smells expensive, warm, manly.' Another reviewer with a collection of 50 fragrances from brands like Guerlain, Chloe, and Chanel said: 'This is one of the most balanced fragrances I have smelled and definitely unisex. ... I get every note listed but not one over powers the other.'
Mixed Reviews on Longevity
While many praise the perfume's longevity, one translated German review noted: 'Smells better than I thought. ... However, the scent doesn't last super long.' In contrast, a translated Italian review stated: 'Excellent fragrance, lasts a long time (even if it does not leave a trail after a few hours it still remains persistent if you are close).' Another shopper added: 'Wow does it smell amazing. Smells even better the longer it wears.'
