In summary

In its current form first attested in the early 16th century and borrowed from Middle French ambre, from Old French ambre, from Arabic عَنْبَر (ʕanbar, “ambergris”), from Middle Persian ʾmbl (/⁠ambar⁠/). However, the word was already present in Middle Dutch as emmer, ammer with assimilation of the consonant cluster -mb-; this assimilated form has not survived into Modern Dutch and developed from an earlier borrowing from Old French ambre.
