AMBRA NERA SHAMPOO

Ambra Nera Shampoo is the shampoo by Ortigia Sicilia, the house founded by Sue Townsend and inspired by the island of Ortigia, the ancient heart of Syracuse. A shampoo that leaves hair healthy-looking and scents it with the house's warmest fragrance.

The Scent

Ambra Nera is Ortigia's warmest, most enveloping fragrance: an aroma of resins and spices resting on an amber base of labdanum, oakmoss and galbanum, enriched with vetiver and patchouli. A rich, warm scent. After washing, your hair keeps a light, refined trail that comes back with every movement.

Formula and Ingredients

Like all Ortigia products, this shampoo is based on natural ingredients, free from SLS, silicones, nickel and parabens, not tested on animals and made by a small Italian family-run company. It leaves hair healthy-looking, infusing it with the musky and warm Ambra Nera fragrance, while the handy 100 ml tube is also perfect for travelling.

How to Use It

Apply a small amount to wet hair, gently massage the scalp into a lather and rinse thoroughly, repeating if necessary. Paired with the shower gel of the same line, it turns your shower into a small scented ritual.

Who We Recommend Ambra Nera Shampoo To

We recommend Ambra Nera Shampoo to those who love warm fragrances and want to find them in their hair too. It is perfect together with the shower gel of the same line and, in the 100 ml size, it is ideal for travel and the gym.

Characteristics

Our Opinion

Ambra Nera Shampoo is a small luxury you do not expect from a shampoo. Healthy-looking hair and a scent you notice with every movement.

Complete the Ritual

• Ambra Nera Shower Gel is the shower gel with the same fragrance, with an olive oil and glycerine base: the first step of a complete scented ritual.
• Ambra Nera Body Cream is the body cream of the same line, with lanolin and olive oil: after your shower it moisturises the skin and makes the scent last.
• Ambra Nera Eau de Parfum is the Eau de Parfum with the same fragrance: sprayed on already scented skin, it intensifies the trail and makes it last longer.
