ResinousWhat does Amber Gold smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both rated as good, though the number of votes is small, so those ratings are tentative. It is made for men, and its warm, dense build suits cooler weather.
As a whole, sandalwood, saffron, cistus and patchouli form a warm, resinous core. Bulgarian rose and geranium add a soft floral touch, while frankincense and Siam benzoin deepen the sweet resin. Castoreum and musk bring in an animal, creamy and leathery edge.
