Anna's blends are more like smell experiences or perfume escapes, pure fun for connoisseurs looking for something beyond perfumes created with the help of modern synthetic materials.
Being natural only blends, the perfumes have a very peculiar projection: close to skin, quiet but excitingly complex upon a closer sniff.
Please note: 15 ml and 8 ml EdPs come with a spray and the 4.5 ml perfume comes in a tiny splash bottle.

Please be aware that natural perfumery has to be patch tested before continual wear.

Important notice:
Anna Zworykina’s blends are olfactive smellscapes (but neither aromatherapy, nor ‘spray-and-go’ perfumes). Her blends are sensory experiences, closer to works of art created in the scented plane (rather than, say, visual or audio).
Certain essential oils and absolutes that are used in her 100% natural perfumes may potentially cause allergies in some people. Please spray Anna Zworykina’s blends on fabric (on sleeves, scarves, etc.). This said, Anna Zworykina has acquired a huge fan base over many years and people interacted with her blends for quite a while now. We are not aware of any reports of any skin reactions so far.
However, Anna advises that those who are prone to allergic reactions, pregnant and nursing women, as well as people with chronic illnesses to be extra careful. Before trying natural blends, study the list of ingredients and consult with a doctor if you are not sure or a had a history of allergies. If you do decide to put these blends on your skin (unable to resist the temptation) always test the blend on the inside part of your elbow first and wait.
Do not spray these blends liberally as a cloud in the way you would spray a conventional perfume. Anna’s smellscapes need to be… carefully applied and experienced. Be mindful that some oils can also make your skin hyper-sensitive to UV.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
On a grey afternoon, Shiny Amber brings a private pocket of warmth: bitter citrus over glowing resins, noticeable chiefly when someone leans closer. Its old-school richness suits unhurried conversation and a presence that feels intimate rather than announced.
How to wear
Reach for it in cool or gloomy weather, when its warm resins offer the strongest contrast. Apply the EdP sparingly to a sleeve or scarf, testing an inconspicuous area first; the spray gives an airier warmth while remaining close-wearing. Follow the brand’s fabric-first advice. If applying to skin, patch-test beforehand and heed its allergy and UV-sensitivity cautions.
Who it’s for
For lovers of vintage-style amber, balsamic sweetness and quiet sensuality who prefer intricate natural textures to a large scent trail. Bitter citrus and champaca give the benzoin–vanilla warmth a brighter counterpoint, appealing to those who want richness without a purely dessert-like character.

The nose
Anna Zworykina is a natural perfumer with a background in biochemistry. Her handcrafted compositions treat scent as an artistic medium, drawing complexity from essential oils, absolutes, tinctures and extracts. In Shiny Amber, she brings bright citrus and floral materials into a resinous accord, using ambergris to lend warmth and spaciousness rather than simply a distinctive smell.
Anna Zworykina’s story
Anna Zworykina Perfumes creates all-natural, handcrafted fragrances as sensory experiences rather than standardized accessories. The house’s idea of “perfumery punk” centres on creative independence, trust in one’s own senses and the careful handling of complex natural materials.
Shiny Amber’s concept
Shiny Amber imagines summer sunlight held inside fossilized amber. Its concept unites a sweet, balsamic amber accord with genuine ambergris collected on a New Zealand beach, surrounding that warm centre with bright citrus and honey-like floral effects.
Extra info
Amber and ambergris are not the same thing: here, the amber effect comes from a resinous accord, while ambergris is a separate, animal-derived material. Shiny Amber is therefore all-natural but not entirely botanical.
