Dossier - Ambery Cedarwood - Inspired by Alien - Women EDP

I loved this perfume so much that I already bought another one! It smells amazing, lasts beautifully, and has quickly become one of my favorites. I’m absolutely in love with it and highly recommend it!

Amber cedarwood review: another win with this brand. Smells exactly how they describe and what other amazing reviewers stated...I haven't smelled the dupe to comment on that, and honestly I didn't love this as much as I thought I would, however I still wear this all the time bcus I constantly get compliments every time I do. So even tho its not my favorite apparently its everyone else's and thats a win in my book. Great longevity and quality, will try and review more

This is my absolute favorite scent, and I get compliments every time I wear it! It has a light, fresh fragrance that’s never overpowering, making it perfect for everyday wear. I also love how versatile it is. It smells beautiful on its own, but it layers effortlessly with other fragrances if you like to create your own unique scent. If you’re looking for something clean, fresh, and compliment-worthy, I highly recommend giving this one a try!

First of all: great bottle size, great value for the money, excellent longevity. All of Dossier's scents that I've tried so far last and last and last and I was surprised at how far the bottle contents go. Like, I don't know if I'll ever run out, haha. But now, onto the review about the scent itself: If I were rating this scent on how much I liked it... I would honestly rate it lower. HOWEVER, I won't do that because it's not Dossier's fault or the perfume's fault, it's my own. The issue I have with this scent is that it is POWDERY — there's a distinctly 'baby powder' scent to it which I abhor, personally, and was not at all expecting upon reading the notes in it. I didn't read any reviews beforehand because I trusted Dossier (and still do, don't get me wrong) after buying their Fruity Magnolia as a dupe for Versace's Bright Crystal and it was SPOT ON and amazing. So I expected that THIS scent would be just as amazing based on the notes listed. The only note I wasn't familiar with was Heliotrope Flower... Which seems to have been my doing in. Heliotrope Flower, it seems, is what packs the powdery punch in this particular scent. As someone sensitive to smells I don't like, it makes this scent borderline unwearable. However, I'm stubborn and own up to my own mistakes so I didn't want to return it or rate it poorly and am determined to find some way to layer it in hopes of cutting through the powder smell. And to be fair, once it dries down some, the powdery smell is much less noticeable — it still comes and goes in waves which is a pain but if you ignore the powdery scent, it still has a lovely, bright, silky, fruity-woodsy scent. I just wish that somewhere in the information about the scent, it had mentioned SOMETHING about 'powdery.' If I had known, I would have opted for a different scent. That's the only reason I took off a star, so sorry.

Ambery Saffron: musky sweet. Pretty strong. Amazing though. Of all the dossier I have smelled, it’s my favorite and my boyfriend LOVES it ! Ambery Cedarwood: lighter when you smell straight from the bottle, but when you wear it pleasantly strong. Has lasted me all day. I’m not sure what the original Alien smells like- but this is definitely something someone will either love or hate. It’s mysterious musky. Not really sweet, not really masculine either. My coworker said it smelled like “old money” and very mature- but not like your grannies perfume. I love it. But I don’t think it’s for everyone! I think it’s more of a night/ date perfume.

Dossier used to sell the Thierry Mugler dupe under the name Oriental Floral 3, of which I still have an old bottle. I recently purchased the Alien dupe under new name Ambery Cedarwood and it’s been completely reformulated (the loss of cashmeran is not the only note missing). I used to wear Thierry Mugler’s Alien and still have bottles. The old Dossier was the perfect dupe. I also have a new bottle of L’Oreal’s Mugler Alien (it’s bad) but Dossier’s reformulated Alien is THE WORST! I’m selling on Mercari.

Not sure how to feel. It arrived on time and packaged nicely, just as all my dossier perfumes have been. Ambery Cedarwood is underwhelming in first impressions. Im only really getting the citrus/orange notes which kind of comes across as All Purpose Cleaner. Maybe after allowing the bottle to sit and mascerate the scent will change. To be determined...

The best smelling I’ve found at such an affordable price. The bottle size is great. The scent lasts me all day long. I was concerned I would have to respray during the day but I haven’t had to at all.

OMG .....It smells sooo amazinnnggg..and it last long. I personally don't like too strong perfume and this is the one for me, the price is affordable .I love it ..Thanks Dossier..

Lovely smell
