It's not your typical ambery oriental.
The H&R chart has it as a spicy oriental.
The older orientals are very different from the sweet orientals of today. I find them far more wearable, and have no problem wearing them to work, but would very rarely wear the newer ones to work.

Or maybe you should try Carlo Corinto Original, a great combination of woods, vanilla and ambergris.

But what the H&R charts call ambery fougere, others refer to as fresh orientals.
I'm not sure what distinguishes them, but I know I'm a total sucker for ambery fougere/fresh oriental scents (e.g Michael, Brut, Sculpture, Laguna, Xeryus Rouge, Boss 6, Bvlgari Blv, Roma Uomo etc) - there's something addictive about them, whereas standard orientals aren't.
