The brand, in short
Al Ambra, also written Alambra
Al Ambra Perfumes is a perfume house from Dubai. According to the brand's own website it has been based there since 2016 and develops its perfumes in the United Arab Emirates. Where its product pages name a country of origin for the scents in this guide, it is the United Arab Emirates.
The name is two words, Al Ambra. On some labels they stand so close together that it reads as Alambra, and people also type “Al Hambra” or “Alhambra”. Whatever the spelling, this guide covers only the bottles labelled Al Ambra.
The brand's own range is larger than what you see here. This guide describes the four scents that FragranceGems lists, all in 50 ml bottles.
Easy to mix up
Compare all four
Black Forest or Black Forest Elixir?They share a name, but they are two different Al Ambra perfumes in two different bottles. One note links them: ambroxan.
Dubai Musk or Ravenna?The two Al Ambra scents people look for most. Both open with citrus and both list bergamot; after that they go separate ways.

Questions about Al Ambra
The short answers. The rest is on the page with all questions.
Is this the official Al Ambra website?
No. This is an unofficial guide published by FragranceGems B.V., a Dutch shop that resells Al Ambra in the EU. FragranceGems is an independent reseller: it is not affiliated with Al Ambra and not authorised by the brand, which does not run this site and has not approved it. The brand's own website is alambraperfumes.com.
Is it Al Ambra, Alambra or Alhambra?
The brand writes its name as Al Ambra; on some labels the two words stand so close together that it reads as Alambra, which is also how this site's address is spelled. People search for “Al Hambra” and “Alhambra” as well. This guide covers only the bottles labelled Al Ambra.
Which Al Ambra perfumes does this guide cover?
The four scents that FragranceGems lists: Dubai Musk, Black Forest, Black Forest Elixir and Ravenna. All are 50 ml bottles. The brand's own range is larger; scents the shop does not list are not described here.
