Touch of Gold

Sweet, warm, floral, fruity, feminine, sensual, seductive, charming, whimsical, dreamy, captivating, radiant, luminous, charming, dreamy, alluring, tempting, addictive, intriguing, 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. I find this to actually be reminiscent of the new Libre Berry Crush! It’s a bit heavier, lacks the lavender, and replaces the vanilla with vanillic Tonka bean, but having just sampled the new Libre Berry Crush (which I love!) I came back to this as something similar. The body care will pair beautifully with Berry Crush! I also paired this with YSL Libre Vanilla Couture, and it was lovely! I have to try it with the Flowers & Flames version as it might make it closer to Berry Crush! I also get a slight similarity to Marc Jacobs Daisy Love Eau So Sweet, except a more rich and deep version.

I Decided to blind buy this during their body care sale, where all body care was $4.95. All I can say is WOW! This fragrance is so beautiful. It only has 3 notes, but the smell is rich and complex. To me, this is a perfect signature scent for the winter. It's warm and just absolutely delicious...has slight gourmand elements, but no where near a gourmand fragrance. I highly recommend this!

Dries down a bit powdery but maintains a soft, youthful quality. Just sweet and lovely. Smells like laughing with my friends. Lasts suprisingly long for a B&B fragrance.

Smells like the feeling of coziness. Like borrowing a best friends sweater. Long lasting for a bath and body Mist. I've gotten the most compliments wearing this.

Mix it with another BBW scent - vanilla ease. Pairs well.

This fragrance smells delicious! I can’t get enough!

I really like Touch of Gold... Perhaps it's because of the Art Deco Design. When I smell this, it smells like a sophisticated and elegant lady. It brings to mind those classic designer perfumes that originated from the 1920's. In particular, it reminds me of L'Interdit - Audrey Hepburn's perfume! (Okay - not quite. Her L'Interdit perfume and the current formula greatly differ - but that is where L'Interdit's story begins.) Okay, back to the point!! Bath & Body Works version smells so lovely and modern. It smells light-hearted, fresh, elegant, - and especially floral. It also smells like clean laundry! The difference comes from the addition of the fruity note! The sweet blackberry's subtle tartness smells so refreshing among the otherwise dominant floral presence. However, like L'Interdit, I believe Touch of Gold should be sprayed lightly as well. If heavily sprayed, it will smell overbearing and therefore immature and offensive. This is a perfume where the classy morals come into play - less is more. It's understated elegance. Otherwise, those dominant white florals become very strong and powerful. Nice work Bath & Body Works! This is nice modern and light-hearted approach to a classic lady's perfume.

It does have a smell that's reminiscent of coins, but I don't get any blackberries at all. I only get the orange blossom and the tonka bean kinda smells more amber. In summary, this smells a lot like strong orange blossom and amber (if you have Petal Parade, this could be her sister). No fruity blackberry note, nor does it smell like tonka (I have a lot of blackberry and tonka fragrances, but this isn't it). I like it, though. I can't stop smelling myself. It's perfect for date nights. Won't recommend for summer as it's too strong. The sillage is quite scandalous, but I love the longevity. It performs a lot like an EDT. If you love perfumey scents, this is right up your alley.

I was expecting a sweet but warm juicy blackberry scent with an ambery dry down. The total opposite. I did not like this at first but the more I wore it the more i started to really like it. It's a dry blackberry scent with a lot of orange blossom and a hint of spiciness from the tonka. It honestly reminds me of an Arabian scent, it just has that aesthetic to it. Surprisingly for a BBW mist it lasts for hours, I can still smell this on me at the end of the day especially on my clothes. If you're looking for a fruity & juicy blackberry this isn't it, it's very mature and rich, and leans more orange blossom than blackberry.

To me, Touch of Gold smells like fresh laundry wrapped in soft cashmere. It has a clean, musky warmth that feels comforting without being heavy. The musk gives it that cozy “your skin but better” vibe, while the freshness keeps it light and airy. It reminds me of pulling warm clothes out of the dryer ; soft fabrics, clean skin, and a subtle golden warmth. Not overpowering at all, just a gentle, elegant scent that sits close to the skin. Perfect for everyday wear if you like soft, musky fragrances that feel clean and effortless.

I have the shimmer mist version of this (which I assume is fairly similar to the regular fragrance mist), and it smells almost exactly like Midnight Addiction- my fave b&bw scent that was unfortunately DISCONTINUED! I love this though. It smells like an expensive fruity-floral gourmand department store fragrance! Super sweet and pretty, reminds me of Born in Roma Extradose & a little bit of Viva La Juicy too. Not the most innovative or unique scent, but it's certainly a good deal for the price (I got it on sale too!)

The window display for this release caught my attention so I went inside to try it. I lathered on the moisturizing lotion first then sprayed the edp. The blackberry, orange blossom, and tonka come together to create an enchanting scent. I really like it! It’s exotic and feminine with some warmth to it. I think it’s one of B&BWs more sophisticated releases. Judging from the comments though, I wish I would have tested the mist to compare it with the edp. Nonetheless, Touch of Gold is a stellar choice!

Although I usually stay away from BBW sprays because I find the scents aggressive and cloying, this body spray is such a pleasant surprise! At first spray, it smells almost like an apple pie but much brighter than you might imagine. As the day goes on and it settles, it starts to smell almost exactly like bubble bath soap. I personally find that lovely, it reminds me of when I was a kid haha. I suppose the scent is supposed to be a champagne sort of scent , but I don't get that anywhere.

It’s a very “perfume-y” scent, but in the way you get a fruity perfume-y perfume. It’s quite lovely and warms down to a warm fruity gourmand with the blackberry just being a whisper. I don’t have JC IWC Le Parfum, but I do have the original IWC and it smells nice with this. I love the Tonka note......it stays throughout the entirety of wear—which lasts on the longer end of “moderate”, btw. I blind bought this during the 4.95 sale last year and bought everything in the line!

I agree with the review below mine that says this smells like Hilary Duff's With Love. It's not exact, but it's very reminiscent of it. I still have a great smelling bottle of With Love. Touch of Gold is pretty strong, which isn't always the case for a BBW mist. It wears a long time on me as well. I'm thinking of doing a large declutter of my mists, this one will stay.

This smells like fresh laundry to me. Like a really nice liquid fabric softener. It kind of reminds me of Musk Therapy but I like this more because something in Musk Therapy smells funky to me.

As soon as I smelled this fragrance, it smelled exactly like L'Interdit Rouge Ultime by Givenchy. If you love that perfume, you will love this!

This scent reminds me of a fragrance from back in the day. I just can’t put my finger on it. It’s a pretty fragrance though.

it is VERY rich to me, i really like it. strong emphasis on berries & floral. just like a hug in a bottle <3
