Le Parfum Eclat d'Or

I took a chance and purchased a one-off bottle of Elie Saab Le Parfum Eclat d'Or from a local Italian perfumery. At this point, the juice is old, but I couldn't resist a rare Francis Kurkdjian creation at such a great price. This was released a year after Baccarat Rouge 540, and though they have few notes in common, they share a similar composition framework—a lovely sweetness that hovers around a woody, slightly masculine base. Here, the sweet element is the Brazillian orange. You get a huge blast of it in the opening along with an old-school indolic floral bouquet. That dies down pretty quickly and the precious woods and beautiful patchouli begin to emerge. This, like Baccarat Rouge 540 plays with your nose. Just when I think that Eclat d'Or is just another ambery, woody-patchouli fragrance, I catch wafts of honeyed orange-tinged florals that seem to swirl around in the air. It's warm and uplifting and I am definitely going to reach for this a ton in the cool weather months. In terms of how it compares to the original and intense version, I think this one sits in the middle between the two. It's both playful and elegant at the same time. Longevity and sillage are above average and the overall quality is excellent. It really is a beautiful fragrance and feel so fortunate to have it my collection.

I truly adore this creation. The first notes are an absolute treasure, sweet and so darn beautiful leaving you wanting more. I kept on smelling my wrists all day long. I was the only one in line getting some materials/lumber and screws for work and a couple walked in, the wife made a comment that was so pleasing to hear. "Someone is wearing something that is so beautiful". I have all his series, love the dry down notes, it is sexier than the first notes. Well worth the purchase.

This has both a warm and bright Brazilian orange top note! It immediately sucks you in! I am a HUGE Elie Saab Le Parfum, Le Parfum Intense etc. fan. I get compliments all the time when I wear any of the gold juice fragrances from Elie Saab....which this is part of. To ME? There are enough differences added in the perfect way, but you can still smell that beautiful Le Parfum hanging around and mingle with the other brighter notes. LOVE THIS!

Déjà, la bouteille est sublime... On retrouve bien le coté Elie saab fleural, un peu fruit d'été, sensation de bonne humeur.... il est plus sucré que l'ancien, je crois que c'est le coté mie qui le rend ainsi, citronné comme toujours, est fleuri a la fois, il a vraiment tout pour plaire il devait juste sortir le parfum en plusieurs size a mon avis

I had a tester of this perfume and I LOVEE it. It's like those perfumes that grab anyones attention in a classy way! It's absolutely in my wish list!!!
