Gold

Gold from Louis Cardin is a floral scent worn by anyone, released in 2011. Everyone who has described it calls it floral, and a minority also find it spicy, woody, musky and citrusy.

The notes are listed together. Orange gives a brief, sweet citrus opening; the heart combines rose, ylang-ylang and neroli, with rose providing a warm, familiar petal note, ylang-ylang a creamy, slightly banana-like richness and neroli a fresh, honeyed orange-flower brightness; spicy notes add a dry warmth; and the base of woody notes and musk is soft and unobtrusive. It is a classic floral arrangement with a light spice rather than anything modern or sweet.

No wear reports have been collected, so longevity and sillage are unknown. A rose and ylang-ylang floral of this kind suits spring and summer and both day and evening wear, and would appeal to anyone who likes traditional florals with a touch of warmth. It is sold in a 100 ml bottle.
