Cambaro means whales’ vomit or sperm which is used to make perfume

So essentially Cambaro is perfume

That's true. Amber or Ambergris.

But it can mean something totally different though:

Cambar in Somali language means women's private parts. It's like naming a girl "Vagina". Oh hello Ms. Vagina. ​

Lol

Oh! Shit! I forgot
Like when when cadaans use the term Johnson to refer to their penis we sometimes use Canbar for the Vagina

Btw it is interesting that Cambaro and Amber are the same thing. Nice find
