Oh oh Magnificent
Oh, oh
Only love, only love can leave such a mark
But only love, only love can heal such a scar
Oh, oh Magnificent
The lines from the great U2 song match this wonderful fragrance very well.
Magnificent Gold is really a protector, a single envelope, a scent that sends a pleasant shiver down your spine. The first white layer of the year is formed here just after a perpetual summer. Unbelievable..last week still T-shirt weather, now the down jacket must be demottet fast. My brain can't really process "the white one" out there yet and first it completely lowers my serotonin and pours out an extra load of melatonin. That's where MG comes in!
The scent radiates, shines extremely at the beginning, a golden vanilla bathed in light, more real pod than baking pouch, combined with a fine rum note, golden-brown shining, both so unbelievably finely balanced, my heart beats a few beats faster at once, warm blood circulation.
Noble vanilla and rum-da was something, yes it reminds of Spiritueuse Double Vanilla, also the quality of the paper doesn't fit in between anymore, also the discreet freshness in the background reminds of Guerlain's masterpiece. With MG, however, there is a subtle amber note in the background, often vanilla honey-sweet, sometimes with a slightly sweaty note, here golden shining, reminiscent of the "fossil amber" of SHL, although not quite the same quality.
The slightly dry wood note in the background can also be very pleasant for rounding and slight contrast, even though MG has already become very calm and discreet in this fragrance phase (after approx. 45-50 minutes). SDV only smelled like vanilla for me from the heart note, not on the back of my hand, but when you stood in the position of another person. MG has its correction of existence already alone by the wonderful, soft, cuddly smell carpet in the basis. Potpourris, open fireplace, angora underwear, underfloor heating or hot-water bottle can be safely forgotten, the scent is completely sufficient.
Conclusion: A really great fragrance, wonderful, heartwarming, high quality, but also with a discreet resemblance to our own velour, the bases are a little bit similar. The shelf life is good but not outstanding, the Sillage strong only in the first hour, is completely sufficient with this fragrance, since the habituation effect of the nose with vanilla occurs rather fast
Suitability for everyday use: 8/10
Feel-good factor: 9.5/10
Wow effect: 9/10
Price/Performance: 7/10
Packaging/Bottling: 9/10
Idea+implementation: 9,5/10

The perfume trap?
Did I fall into the perfume trap? Have I become a niche snob?
Actually I don't want to go to such a discussion level, because I can't do much with the drawers (think) niche/mainstream, but the statement in a statement about this scent has made...

The only mistake is his name!
Of course I would have preferred a stronger version of the Fahrenheit EDT (current version), but this will probably remain an unfulfilled dream. Or at least a "more full-bodied" or "rounder" edition of the EDT, would certainly have...
