About Angela Ciampagna Ignes EDP
Ignes EDP is made by Angela Ciampagna. Its strength is Eau de Parfum.
Ignes price per bottle size
The usual price in Europe is about €207. That puts it on the expensive side. It costs more than Ard Al Zaafaran Meethaq but less than Initio Parfums Prives Mystic Experience.
The style of Ignes
The strongest accord is woody (100%), followed by amber and balsamic. You will probably like it if you enjoy woody and amber smells and notes like peru balsam and amber. Less obvious notes include woody notes, woody notes and Bourbon vetiver.
Longevity on skin
It stays on skin for about 6 to 9 hours, so one spray in the morning can carry you through the day. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. It lasts about as long as Diptyque Benjoin Boheme unisex and Initio Parfums Prives Mystic Experience. Base notes like amber and sandalwood are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Sillage and projection
Projection is medium: people near you can smell it. Three or four sprays give a good balance. Initio Parfums Prives Mystic Experience and Ard Al Zaafaran Meethaq spread further.

For work or for evenings
It works better at night than in the day, so it is a good pick for evenings, dinners and going out. Its amber side feels cosy and rich after dark.
