WHAT IS Whale Vomit Amber?
Amber is a solid, waxy substance produced in the digestive systems of whales. It resembles a rock. It is a flammable and very valuable substance that can be black or gray in color. This substance, produced in the digestive system of the whale, allows sharp and hard objects to slide through the intestines. When first produced, amber, which smells like faeces, later turns into a powerful chemical with refreshing essences. Amber, one of the indispensable ingredients of expensive perfumes, is excreted by whales, but sometimes it is so large that it cannot pass through the digestive system and the whale vomits that excrement out. While those vomit balls appear on the ocean surface, they sometimes wash up on the shore.
WHY IS AMBERGRIS VALUABLE?
Since Whale Vomit is a natural substance, it is stronger than chemical reactions. Amber, which also increases the permanence of the perfume, is therefore expensive. It is mostly found in countries such as Brazil, Maldives and New Zealand, which have coastlines on the Atlantic Ocean.
