What does Gold Regatta smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. It is mostly picked for leisure and daily wear, and it also suits the office and evenings out. Voters tilt slightly masculine, but plenty also call it feminine, so it sits comfortably in between.

Fig and red algae open it fresh and briny. Towards the middle, driftwood and everlasting flower build a floral, woody balance. Amber and vanilla sweeten the base into a creamy, lightly spicy warmth. Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Forte Bosca Vanilla and Acqua dell'Elba Blu Donna have a close profile.
