What does Goldmund smell like?
Goldmund is rated as long-lasting with good sillage. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and leisure, evening and night out lead the occasions. On character it reads slightly more feminine than masculine, but the two sit close, so it works on either side.
Thyme and orange open it: the citrus gives an early lift, while the herbal thyme keeps it a little earthy. Cinnamon and cistus add a spicy, resinous warmth in the heart. Peru balsam and vanilla soften the base, settling into an oriental, woody finish. Le Couvent Ambra and Wolkenseifen Mystique have a close profile.
