Golden non edible unisex gourmand

Like the other fragrance I tried from this house, this one is also very balanced and the notes are beautifully made. This one is just better in many ways. The notes can be clearly detected in the mixture, but nothing is overemphasized, so if you don't normally like any of the notes, you should still not give up trying this one.

The scent is delicious, but not clearly edible. The notes in it can mainly be divided into three categories: notes that bring sweetness, i.e. honey, dates and vanilla, spices that bring edge, i.e. cardamom and saffron, and comforting notes, which include nutty Pistachio and roasted nuts, as well as bread like and soft Sesame. I think Rose is included as a binding note and Amber deepens the otherwise soft and slightly light gourmand-like notes. However, the balance and the impersonal beauty of the notes make the scent perhaps too easy. It lacks character and I can't really think of any special occasion where I would wear it, and therefore it is well suited as a signature scent.

The scent is bright and has a golden yellow sheen. Dates and nuts with sesame seeds are drizzled with honey while cardamom and saffron balance the sweetness. It never turns out sticky sweet. The scent is clearly more popular with men, but I don't think it leans towards masculinity any more than it leans towards femininity.

I surprisingly like this scent a lot. As many know, I'm not a fan of clear gourmands. I find many of them too synthetic or too juvenile and not elegant. This one passes my "gourmand test", even though it's not the most unique.

The scent lasts easily 7 hours, it's quite linear and projects to those nearby, but doesn't fill the room. When sprayed liberally, it leaves an irresistible trail after the wearer.

Thank you for reading, I hope you liked my review.
