What does Golden Powder smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with evenings and nights out leading and leisure wear close behind. It reads neither clearly masculine nor feminine, as the votes split closely between the two.
Cinnamon and nutmeg open with spice. In the heart, sandalwood, Virginia cedar and gaiac wood build a woody frame. The base of vanilla, musk and coumarin adds a creamy, powdery sweetness, while Burmese oud and French labdanum bring a resinous, smoky depth.
