Close Up by Olfactive Studio is a warm, spicy, comfortable fragrance. Zoom in and revel in the olfactive intensity of Close Up.
Intense and contrasting, the amber tones combine with a freshness. It has a full bodied character that blends seamlessly with anise and green coffee. Zooming in even closer, each ingredient gains in intensity and distinctness.
Chemist in a Bottle: “Close Up starts with a heavy dose of tonka bean that gives an impression of something incredibly creamy, woody and warm spicy at the same time. It smells foody, like a pudding, but made of tonka and woody “granola”. Candied cherry is followed by coffee. This perfume also has a rich tenderness of tobacco and the bright facets of amber, placed on an earthy base of patchouli and musk.”

Amber
The amber fragrance family contains warm, spicy and often sensual perfume notes. Classic amber fragrances are built around an amber accord, often consisting of patchouli, benzoin, labdanum, vanilla and musk. Also, amber can refer to natural ambergris or synthetic amber, such as Ambrox or Ambroxan.
