Description
“This Olfactory Composition dances around top quality white Irish ambergris… a precious material that is just as rare as it is mysterious and attractive. Its aroma is pristine, fluffy, silky, slightly powdery, sweet and earthy, with a bottomless oceanic depth that is truly unique.
However, is not merely the scent that matters. High-grade white ambergris, when used wisely, is known to produce an amazing uplifting influence on other aromatics, especially florals, leading to a breathtaking, 3D effect and an unmatchable olfactory experience.
The synergy of fresh, floral, spicy and green notes, along with ambergris’ golden touch, indeed creates an amazing sensation. Apart from absolute olfactory satisfaction, it may cause an intense and unusual reaction on a deeper level.
Atlantic Ambergris utilizes the exceptional top, middle and base notes that are mentioned below; however, the glory of this composition resides in the coexistence, marriage and synergy of those notes… where every individual element loses its personality and dies. Then, all of the separate components are reborn into a single olfactory and emotional explosion that is full of beautiful nuances, elegant turns, smooth corners, ups and downs…
Consider how an ocean wave begins its journey, seemingly from nowhere, and commences breathing, vibrating, gradually and graciously growing, until it reaches the size of a mountain… only to collapse and dissolve in seconds, leaving a huge and lasting impression on whoever decides to face it.
So too will the emotional olfactory wave of Atlantic Ambergris affect you! Once the ocean is calm, we hope to meet you in the secret place… the place where, thrown by the waves, lost Atlantic Ambergris lays…” – a note from the brand.
Atlantic Ambergris was launched in 2017. The nose behind this fragrance is Russian Adam.

Sprayed too many this evening as my wife noted. I have to remember this and all from Areej Le Dore are sillage bombs! I love them though and will enjoy the over-sprays when alone. 🙂

Aromatic sea requiem of a sperm whale. Spicy, scent of a sea rover lording over the waves! Opens with extravagantly natural notes, and settles into a captain of the sea kind of aroma. Hard to describe, but one of the most kinetic perfume experiences I’ve had. Best ambergris ever! The longer I wore it, the more I fell in love. Its’ drydown is spicy clean sea winds.
The ambergris is very strong on me and has an effect like standing in a gale on the beach and having the breath sucked out of my mouth. It creates a vacuum to rush into so that at times it’s the only note I smelled. Carries the spirit of the deep sea denizen that produced it, with a smell like the call of humpbacks – haunting and soulful.
Atlantic Ambergris has jumped to being one of my all time favorites – in my top 5 – a perfume I’ve been seeking for years. I live at the beach, and this one has the spirit of open waves, tinted with the spices and cargo of triple masted ghost ships that braved it’s fury. I’m sailing with them, FB on its way.
P.S. I should probably mention that all the notes are masterfully chosen to highlight and enhance this specific ambergris. Pieces of real ambergris do not smell the same. Cloves and myrrh are noticable, with other ingredients making a complimentary bed to feature the Irish ambergris, a gift from a leviathan in celtic waters.

To me, this smells very similar to a premium Mukhallat from Ajmal called Amber Ameeri, which is only available as decantable oil at their showrooms in India (maybe also in the middle East). Very very close in the opening! I guess because of the amber/ambergris. I also get prominent and long lasting clove in both. Atlantic ambergris is a tad milder and a bit slatier, but not fresh like Creed’s ambergris notes. It is still thick and opulent. None of the 4 recent releases are apt for the summer heat (unless you go just half a spray). All for special occasions, formal Wear only! If not the scent, the price commands it.
7/10

This is really interesting. My first impression was a sort of herbal, medecinal berry scent – like a cough syrup. Vaguely similar to Slumberhouse Zahd. After reading the comment before mine I can definitely see how someone would get bubble gum, too.
Update: This is a beautiful scent and tough for my nose to nail down. The “mysterious and attractive” descriptors in the marketing copy definitely apply. It loses some of the medecinal notes and becomes smooth and creamy while still maintaining a transparent aspect to it that is difficult to describe. Oddly, it also brings to mind a specific type of semi-transparent red cranberry bar soap I remember from Christmas time. The scent abd blending has some similarities (even the cloves), and the red and transparent look of the soap fits perfectly to represent this scent as a color. Going by name alone, I would have expected something aquatic or marine, but it couldn’t really be more far removed fromt he name. The cloves and warmth lend this more toward cold weather use, maybe fall and winter to me.

Bubblegum spice!
I keep on sniffing that weird bubblegum note mingled with cloves, myrrh, and nutmeg for a while. Later, a new sweet ambergris, champaca, tonka, balsamic, tingly lime, oakmoss, and cypriol oil rise up and softens the scene.
I kind of smell something fizzy in here as well, something like pepsi note.
It’s quite interesting as i thought from it’s name that it’s going to be salty aquatic, and overly fresh blend, but it turned to be quite interesting.

Get ready for the best journey of your fragrance experience… This will awaken your senses, expand your imagination, infuse confidence, you will be in Nirvana through the life of this fragrance…did I say fragrance… I meant to say Gold!!! If creed made this, it’ll be one of their best creations. Smells like the purest form of ambergris…real ambergris. Imagine the smell of the sunshine reflecting on the ocean side on a cool summer evening. Just fresh, green and light floral blended to perfection. So real guys… I’m in love. Pure Magic.

My favorite of the new 4; not as weird or as old school as some say.

Just received this and 1st time wearing. I love it, as I’ve loved all the fragrances from this Areeg Le Dore. Quality is unsurpassed, including the box it comes in. I get a little sweetness with this, which surprised me but works out interestingly with pine and cloves. Top-notch natural ingredients. Highly recommended!
