Solid amber: the flower spice

Strictly speaking, solid amber is a material that has its roots in the Middle East.
It's a compound fragrance, which means it's a mixture of ingredients. 
Not to be confused, in fact, with amber from fossilized tree resin, or even ambergris
, which comes from the intestines of sperm whales.

Throughout history, fragrant resins were prized as both
religious offerings and luxury perfumes. This is how the ancient Egyptians elevated perfumery
to the rank of art, with incense like the famous Kyphi.

They thus rolled these solid scents into cakes, dried them and burned them on
charcoal. Today, the finest amber resins come from India.
The recipes for solid amber are varied and many are passed down from generation to
generation. Thus, its character is warm, sweet and slightly spicy. Benzoin, vanilla,
honey, myrrh form the basis of most of them. 

In addition, to make this solid, manufacturers grind and mix the
aromatic components into a soft carrier substance. For this purpose, beeswax is one of the
traditional ingredients. 

Perfumers will adjust these elements to produce very different scents.
Egyptian amber , for example, is generally soft and musky. Unlike
Tunisian amber , which is spicy, oriental in style. 

Additionally, additional notes like sandalwood, patchouli, vetiver,
lemongrass, musk, can be added. There is really no limit to the
variations!

How to use solid amber?
