Gold Regatta

Gold Regatta is a salty, green fig over a sweet amber base, composed by Véronique Nyberg for The Merchant of Venice in 2023 and worn by anyone. Wearers describe it as sweet, green, woody, fresh and ambery all at once, which reflects a scent that moves through all of those stages.

Fig and red algae open it, the fig green, milky and slightly bitter, the algae adding a marine, salty, iodine-like freshness that fits the regatta theme. The heart pairs woody notes and salt with immortelle, whose maple-syrup and dried-herb warmth starts to pull the scent towards sweetness. The base of vanilla and amber is where it lands, warm, creamy and golden, the saltiness of the earlier stages lingering just enough to keep it from becoming a plain gourmand. The character suggests late summer into autumn, day into evening, for anyone who likes fig and sea air with a warm, sweet finish.
