A moonlit tropical garden after a rain
Sometimes when people hear a woman reveal she’s wearing a men’s fragrance they act amazed. Like it’s a shame to wear a men’s fragrance. And don’t even start on how people react if you’re a man admitting you’re wearing a women’s fragrance. The truth is, perfumes aren’t constrained by gender. Though some perfumes can be construed as feminine or masculine. The final say on the matter always ends with the individual. If you like it–just wear it. Zara Woman Rose Gold is one such fragrance where if you like it then just wear it. This is glamorous and I picture a muse walking down a moonlit tropical garden after a rain. The air is filled with a lush sweet perfume. She sits down on a bench and just takes a deep breath of the intoxicating flowers and her eyes closed. This is a perfume that took me to another place. Very exotic. If you want a tuberose perfume just give this a try.
I don't really know why I refused to try it for such a long time. Yesterday I finally did and fell in love with it. It is like a smell of roses after the rain. So delicate and private and so beautiful. The bottle is so cute. It's Rose Gold as the name suggests, the cap, the juice, and the printed name, which I didn't realize until I got it home. I know Rose Gold has been a big thing with people lately, so maybe it will appeal
Let's walk altogether into that garden and see what do we smell... First thing first, Rose Gold is a floral, woody, musky perfume that opens up with a blast of green leaves, white blossoms, and a kind of like incensed and resinous aroma. In that blend, I can get some white magnolia, gardenia, and freesia, and allegedly labdanum resin, cause it is resinous yet not as smoky as olibanum. All of those tropical white blooms give a dampness accord, similar to the sultry smell of leaves after the rain. This is one of the best and unique opening I didn't find in any of my masculine colognes. That's why I love it.
The heart a very sweet and joyful combination of orange blossom with other white flowers, which reveals with violet leaves, flamboyant tuberose, on a background of peony blossom and a touch of buttery orris. The tuberose is the queen, so opulent, so narcotic, so extravagant, it's here in bucket loads yet never vexatious nor uncontrollable.
The dry down is a lot of golden amber and animal musk. I must be mistaken, but every now and then I get a whiff of tonka, so delicate and sweet, and a sort of blond wood, maybe the synthetic cashmere wood. Besides, there is that milky tone that makes me think of dried figs.
Wearable, easy and nice for the first warm days of spring, surprisingly a scent better suited for wear in the warmer months. This is oriental, sultry, animal, and sexy. A good, elegant night time scent. In the mornings, it may feel a little heavy and strong, but it calms down quickly.
If you are looking for decent tuberose that's inexpensive, and love strong, heady florals, this may be worth your consideration. I would suggest you try it once at the Zara store to take a call. It lasts quite a long time, especially on garments, and makes itself noticeable. When you apply it, you can detect it from a distance, so I would say the sillage is really good. Yes, it's so lovely. Since I wrote this I've become even more obsessed with it.
