Off to Serendip we go and return with a fragrance titled Aumbre, combining the sacred sound Aum/Om with the word Amber. The feel is warm, nurturing and a bit exotic, evoking a richly woven geometric robe that may have been worn during a sunset stroll through the Alhambra in Spain. The fragrance defies genre, as it is neither feminine nor masculine.

Customer Reviews
I chose Aumbre from the discovery set. This fragrance for me is not just about how I want to smell, but also how I want to feel...grounded and at peace. It's beautiful.
Aumbre is the latest one in my fast growing collection of Roxana's delightful creations. I love all things warm, woody, honeyed, with a smidgen of spice and smoke. Aumbre ticks all the boxes beautifully!

My first experience experimenting with botanical purefumes was with this shop. I explored other botanical perfume shops and ordered their samples. None of the other botanical perfume shops compare to Illuminated perfume (in my opinion). I don't know how Roxana does it, but her blends are magical and for me, therapeutic! My experiences with this shop have been nothing but positive! Roxana promptly replies to questions I have and her botanical perfumes are THE best! I will forever love this scent...and what I love about botanical perfumes is that they force me to stop and be mindful of the various layers and subtle changes of the perfume, and the soothing feelings they bring. It's such a soothing sensory experience for me and I bring this into my mindfulness
I live in the city and I am so grateful to have this perfume as it instantly brings me back in touch with nature and with myself. It is very grounding, soothing, comforting, and therapeutic (to me). I love the warm, sweet, woody, incense aspects of this gorgeous perfume. I am a customer for life!
