## Notes

- top: Bergamot
- heart: Amber, Myrrh
- base: Patchouli, Sandalwood

## Five notes, a clear direction

**Ambra** offers a concise starting point for exploring resinous perfume. The house lists bergamot first, amber and myrrh at the heart, then patchouli and sandalwood. The appeal of that short pyramid is its clarity: citrus, resins and woods each have a place in the structure.

This record is specifically the current Eau de Parfum from I Giardini Medicei. The bottle in our earlier archive story says Acqua di Colonia. We keep that distinction visible rather than transferring claims from one edition to another.

## Continue through the woods

Tabacco Toscano offers another route through the same house, with tobacco and leather in its note list. Gypsy Water shares bergamot, amber and sandalwood, but brings incense and aromatic notes into the picture. These connections support comparison and sampling; they are not first-hand judgments about similarity, strength or longevity.
