What does Scent of Gold smell like?

It opens with Madagascan cinnamon, bergamot and prunol, giving a spicy brightness. In the heart, tobacco, violet and jasmine add a floral, powdery softness. The base of labdanum, vanilla and patchouli settles into a creamy, resinous, woody warmth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, while summer trails far behind. Votes spread across evening, leisure and daily wear, so it isn't tied to one setting. Masculine and feminine votes are equal, which places it in between. Xerjoff P.18 and Byredo Slow Dance have a close profile.
