Icy fresh citrus with apple
Finally sampling ScentStory 24 Ice Gold, a long overdue try from the now-discontinued 24 line (that is still available), and as the “ice” moniker usually goes, Ice Gold is a fresh, sharp, citrus-dominant fragrance, quite different from most of the 24 line that preceded, much closer to the original 24 than Go Dark, Platinum, or Gold.
Ice Gold avoids the orange zest dominance of other “icy” fragrances, specifically, and feels more like a lemon/bergamot-dominant citrus opening, with plenty of woods, as well as unsurprisingly listed notes of ambroxan and white musk, as it has that rather clean dry down. And there is just a touch of apple in the mix to keep things a bit more interesting that a formulaic freshie. Still, this is an easy formula to like and enjoy, and it’s an easy fragrance to wear, but it just fails to dazzle beyond being good. Still, what’s not to like? This just feels like an easy winner on a hot day, especially,
Ice Gold is EDT concentration and performs decently, and is sold via FragranceX at $55 for 100ml, not a bad price, though other versions like Gold and Rise of the Superb are much better values on account of their being more creative and higher-performing.
