Many theories suggest that it is the secretion that coats indigestible food, such as the teeth of some squid, in the stomach of sperm whales. But there is also a theory that this secretion acts as an antibiotic to heal wounds in the intestines of fish. After years, the sperm whales accumulated these substances in a large lump. After the fish is released into the ocean, the ambergris can spend thousands of years in the deep sea or drift towards shore.
Ambergris is like incense from the sea, becoming something connoisseurs must desire. The reason is that ambergris contains a special chemical that stabilizes the odor, which helps other scents in the perfume last longer.
