Pure Gold Euphoria Women

...I've finally come to the conclusion that I enjoy this fragrance very much! It's kind of like a bad first impression, but then finding out that even though we are different, there's much to be enjoyed with the personality of this fragrance. It is now a really fragrant orange blossom and vanilla musk on me, with a brightness that ends up making me happy. This is NOT my usual style of fragrance, so I'm pretty surprised, especially considering the beginning, which I thought was pretty loud, heavy and screechy, but now, not at all. I don't know why now, I'm appreciating this fragrance so much? I think this is a wonderful change for my usual fall/winter wardrobe. This is heavy enough to suit me, but in a completely different way. I don't know if it's the neroli or the "solar" accord that tips the scales on this, but it is not my usual dark, serious fall type. Even though it is still pretty thick in composition, it somehow still keeps a playful happy accord to it. I like it, I really like it. :-)

I smelled it in the bottle and loved it. Sprayed it on and it smelled different, maybe a little green or earthy, and very strong. Possibly unisex. Didn't like it. As it reaches dry down it changes. The longer I wear it the softer it becomes. It always changes for the better. The difficult scents all disappear but it is still a bit strong. Eventually it becomes a beautiful floral scent with a bit of something else thrown in. What ever it is I love it. At this point it is very female fragrance not at all unisex. Sometimes it even smells a bit fruity. I don't have Euphoria Gold to compair it to. Just put it on and wait a while.

If Lanvin Me and Salvatore Ferragamo Signorina Misteriosa are battling it out for dominance, it would be CK Euphoria Pure Gold. I love how the smoky accord here which the leather and dates create is so similar to the blueberry - licorice accord of Lanvin Me. This is just a tad sweeter due to dates are naturally sweet compared to the fresh bluberry of the latter. This smells exactly like floral agarbatti (incense sticks). I find no challenge wearing this since I love strong and incensy perfumes like Yves Saint Laurent Opium and Dior Poison. I am wearing it in the high summer heat and it is just divine.

This is absolutely divine! I can smell a tiny bit of oud as I spray, maybe it is the benzoin, then comes this dry sweetness of the dates - and it lasts until the scent dies. The dates are the stronger note on my skin, projection is strong but this is not sharp in any way (like the original, IMO). Its a very rounded perfume, unisex and delicious. I couldn`t smell any leather, unfortunately. Longevity is amazing. Highly recommended!

@Whit: who cares...the Liguid Gold (same looking bottle btw..) was meant only for the Middle East, too but you could buy it everywhere in online shops in US and whole Europe without problems....so this will be the same, dont worry
