Looks ridiculous, but I can't find Ambience theme for XFCE out the in the Internet (while there are even couple of pretty good versions for Windows XP). Could you share a link? I even don't require everything (like controls and icons) look exactly like it does in original Ubuntu Ambiance, I just want window decorations (better with controls on the right though) and a colours scheme (for example dark menu bars instead of default blue ones).

PS: I'd prefer not to install Gnome and Metacity.

I just made a theme that imitate exactly Ambiance theme used in Ubuntu, and built for Xubuntu. Check it out: http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php?content=141027

I recently stumbled upon the best XFCE/LXDE versions of Ambiance and Radiance I've seen yet, put together by the RAVEfinity team. You can check them out at xfce-look:

http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php/Ambiance+%26+Radiance+Themes+for+Xfce%2BOpen?content=146674

For the impatient, they can be installed thusly:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ravefinity-project/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ambiance-xfce-lxde radiance-xfce-lxde

They look great and I haven't run into any of the bugs or oddities I've seen with the other Ambiance/Radiance knockoffs. They also provide some interesting "colored" versions of Ambiance and Radiance (which I haven't tried yet):

have you checked out xfce-look.org? It has a lot of themes for you to choose from.

A few Ambiance themes are found here:

Most of the themes (including those two above) use GTK. You can sort through the KFCE themes on kfce-look.org though. Here are some similar to the Ambiance theme, though they aren't the same:

After 12.10 (quantal) the Ravefinity PPA has not been updated. But as of 14.04 (trusty), one can get their current Xfce Ambiance and Radiance themes from their website.
