Touch of Gold Mist

Sweet, warm, floral, fruity, feminine, sensual, seductive, charming, whimsical, dreamy, captivating, radiant, luminous, inviting, cozy, comforting I get sweet and juicy blackberries, sweet and citrusy orange blossom, and warm vanillic and caramel-y tonka. It’s a beautiful fragrance that wraps you in a luminous and comforting sweet warmth! It does lean gourmand, but it’s also quite floral with the radiant and citrusy floral orange blossom. The blackberries add a sweet and juicy fruity facet, especially in the opening. The tonka in the base really adds this lovely amber-y, vanillic, and somewhat caramel-y sweetness and warmth that’s intertwined throughout the whole experience. This seems like it’s going to be an easy reach, and generally a nice crowd pleaser. It feels feminine to me, and like it will suit women of any age. This feels suitable for fall, winter, and spring, but could probably work during the summer too. It’s a &good choice for casual occasions, work/school, and even some date nights. This feels somewhat reminiscent of the new YSL Libre Berry Crush! I really enjoy the new Libre flanker, and think this body care would pair perfectly with it! For reference, some of my other favorites from B&BW include Coco Paradise, At the Beach, Oahu Coconut Sunset, Honolulu Sun, At the Beach, Beach Nights, Boardwalk Marshmallow Clouds, Cotton Candy Clouds, Forever Sunshine, Cashmere Glow, Whipped Honey & Vanilla, Fireside Flurries, Cozy Vanilla Bourbon, Vanilla Romance, Pistachio Glaze, Frosted Snowdrop, Bonfire Bash, Wicked Vanilla Woods, Everlasting Magic, Fresh Vanilla Blossoms *as a side note, there’s another listing on here for “Touch of Gold” which has some different fragrances in the reminds me section, and has a lot more reviews. Definitely worth checking out because it’s the same fragrance, only this listing is missing the blackberry note.

I actually really like it and it seems to have longevity. I sprayed it on my sleeve at 11 am. It’s 10pm and I can still faintly smell it. Vanilla, amber, warm, beachy, skin scent, sexy. I need a bottle and the lotion before it disappears forever. Smells comforting and cozy. Familiar, reminds me of something..... Edit: I think it is Good Girl, but with a twist, fruitier and fresher. I also could make out some Platinum too. Maybe a combo of Dahlia and Platinum? I get that same hint of grape (synthetic orange blossom here) that I get in Platinum and a hint of patchouli like platinum. I don’t smell blackberry at all and the grape mellows out and isn’t as noticeable in the dry down. I sprayed one spray on my shirt yesterday and I smelled delicious all day. I’m actually surprised by negative reviews. Maybe this one really depends on chemistry. I have the spray and now I want to get all the stuff! Love!

I have this in the edp version and it's beautiful! It lasts quite a while and it also reminds me of a fragrance from around 2010 from Avon called Mirada which is also a gorgeous scent.

this is in the same vein as ballet nights and b&bw's other "perfume" scents (i swear there's a bit of patchouli here), but it feels brighter. i also am reminded of dalal, especially in the edp form of touch of gold. i'm not normally a big fan of these kinds of scents (fruitchouli-type dna), and i'm typically a hater of fruity scents, but this definitely grew on me. if you grew up with black opium, flowerbomb, and the like, i think you'd like this--something about this is definitely nostalgic for me. the opening is sharp for sure, but there's an underlying caramel-like sweetness that i find myself craving here and there. this is a great going-out fragrance, and it performs better than most other mists.

To me the notes are deceptive. I don’t get a lot of orange blossom or Tonka when I tried this in store. This smells more like luminous than a sweet vanilla-ish orange blossom. Still a really nice scent that lasts a very long time, but as an orange blossom lover - this one isn’t very orange blossom.

i like it, but its nothing revolutionary from b&bw. its definitely super strong (platinum comes to mind when i think of the strength) and kinda smells like in the stars because they both share an amber accord. i dont see myself reaching for it, but i think its a good spray regardless!

I don't know why there are two entries for this, and this one doesn't have the blackberry note in the note pyramid but the other one does. I can only smell the blackberry note in the body butter version, which I like. The other versions just smell like chemicals. It's super disappointing. I resisted the temptation to scrub the diamond shimmer mist only because I knew I was going to go swimming and it would wash off anyway, and I like the actual glitter, I like the green / gold / white glitter as an early fall September thing, while other BBW diamond shimmer mists are diamond white. I don't like how weirdly thick this diamond shimmer mist is compared to other BBW diamond shimmer mists though. The video ad running on FB right now is creepy and references the story the King Midas, even though gold for September is very clearly supposed to represent autumn leaves. I was actually hoping for a nice fragrance to wear this week to remind me of the Golden Autumn Dreamland. The body butter is not bad and I'll wear it, but I'll definitely be layering it with something other than its matching mist, perfume, or diamond shimmer mist, none of which I like. I rated this OK because I find the body butter tolerable even though I dislike the actual perfume and mist versions. Touch of Gold resembles YSL Parisienne EDP because it's plastic and blackberries.

My first impression of this was that it was sharp and piercing to my nostrils. Everyone else was saying this was soft and subtle but I sprayed the test blotter of the body spray and wow it wasn't pleasant at first. It had that sharp pungent BR540 smell at first (doesn't smell like BR540 though, just that initial sharp note). It gets better once it dries down, but stil not sure if this is purchase-worthy.

To my noise it’s an ok one, I was excited about it but nothing special.

I don’t agree that this smells like Luminous. Maybe has a slight similarity to luminous but genuinely smells like dryer sheets to me??? Upon application I can smell the sweetness of the blackberry but as soon as it dries down I just smell dryer sheets. The FFM and body cream has this dryer sheet smell that I really don’t like. I don’t smell any orange blossom at all, just dryer sheets. Anyway, B&BW PLZ BRING BACK LUMINOUS. :,)

Ugh. I made the mistake of spraying this on my wrist. This stunk and lasted forever. Ruined everything else I was trying to smell. 🤮

Tested this, and had to do a double take - if you told me this was a dupe of Lady Million Paco Rabanne I would've believed it. There's a bit of berry up top, and like other reviewers have mentioned, I seem to get a patchouli note here, but it may be an illusion of orange-blossom and something near ambrette. I also get a jasmine note, and it turns quite sweet & honey-like. I don't really get tonka, but if so maybe a fruity-tobacco-leaning tonka. For me, this is a nice re-interpretation of Lady Million, which it would layer well with, as well as other orange-blossom, jasmine & patchouli scents. Update 12/05/25: I'm getting the tonka now, but it still starts out like a fruitchouli, but then there's a nice tonka powdery softness underneath. It does give off a "Gold" vibe for sure.
