Korloff Gold

Finally received a half full bottle of it in a swap and I'm so happy about it.I LOVE Korloff Gold and I believe it deserves more popularity.sweet milky coconut and just a glimpse of sparkly strawberry in the opening blend with creamy,tropical flowers,frangipani,tiara and gardenia and give them such a delicious,delightful vibe that is to die for. oh,and the clean, softly powdered vanilla in the base is perfect. It's smooth,bright,feminine and is playful and classy at the same time I know that there are numerous perfumes in this genre.coconut and some other fruits,a bunch of flowers,clean musky vanilla and that's it. but Korloff Gold is one of the bests in this genre,it's very well-balanced.I love sweet perfumes and gourmands but I agree that a coconut-vanilla perfume can easily pass the boundaries of being cloyingly sweet. Korloff Gold IS sweet and yummy but it's far from being a sickly sweet or overwhelming perfume.some others in this genre are ruined for me with too much lemon or lime,or too much woody notes,or salty aquatic notes.these type of coconut perfumes read as unisex for me.but Korloff Gold is superfeminine and it manages to be elegant and adult while being fun,happy and cheerful To me it's like a love child of Guerlain Terracotta and Armani Sun di gioia.it inherits best qualities of each of them and adds it with some sparkly strawberrys and an airy clean vibe It also lasts +6 hours on my skin which is great and however it's smooth and gentle, people standing close to me notice it.it also has a gorgeous bottle and it's reasonable price is another plus Now I have to try other Korloff perfumes Edit: Aquolina Creamy Sunshine is a great layering combo with Korloff Gold یه عطر خیلی عالی از کورلوف رایحه خوشمزه و لطیف و دلنشین،پر از انرژی مثبت،کاملا فمینین و درعین شاد بودن شیک،موندگاری خوب،شیشه زیبا و قیمت مناسب باعث میشن بشه با خیال راحت به بقیه توصیه کردش از نت هاش میشه متوجه شد با یه عطر تروپیکال/ساحلی/تابستونی مواجهیم اما از نوع باکلاسش،ترکیب رایحه شیرین و خامه ای نارگیل،وانیل،گل گاردنیا،پلومریا و تیار واقعا دلنشینن،توت فرنگی در حد یه درخشش خوشرنگ تو ابتدای عمر عطر چشمک میزنه و می‌ره هرچند شیرینه برخلاف خیلی از عطرهای نارگیلی دیگه،شیرینیش دل به هم زن و اغراق شده نیست و خبری از نت های سردردآور و یونیسکس کننده مثل لیمو،صندل یا نمک هم نیست یه شباهت های ریزی به آرمانی جیو سان و گرلن تراکوتا داره،از هر کدوم یه چیزایی به ارث برده و حاصل کار یه عطر خیلی دوست داشتنی و راحت شده که بااینکه ذاتا تابستونیه اما عملا تمام طول سال قابل استفاده ست

It's been years that I see this pretty,eye catching bottle on korloff stand each time I go to hiland mall but I never tested it! Once I sampled a feminine korloff perfume (I can't remember which one was it)and hated it so much that I wasn't attracted to this brand anymore (exept Korloff black which I love a will buy it someday for my man) a good friend of mine has a bottle of Korllof gold and when she saw that I'm curious about it,offered me a sniff.though I didn't know any of it's notes,I didn't expect much and it was a huge,pleasant surprise These days I'm really craving sunny,beachy scents and I could tell since first sniff that Korloff Gold belongs to that category.it was my first and only test so I can't describe it in a detailed and accurate way just that the first thing that came to my mind was Guerlain Terracotta.I LOVE Terracotta but I felt that I love KG even more!it was like a softer,more creamy sister of Terracotta I could definitely detect tiare and coconut,I could guess gardrnia and frangipani,I could feel a hint of a sparkly fruity note cutting through it's lush creamyness and I could smell a hint of soft,clean powder as it was settling down.when I checked it here,I was surprised to see my right guesses and it must be because of it's natural,pure,true to life ingredients I didn't expect such a quality and such a balance from a reasonably priced fume. It's yummy without being cloyingly sweet or totally gourmand.it's elegant while being sunny and comforting. It lasted on back of my hand for 4 hours but I had a tiny spritz and I had washed my hands after applying plenty of times so I think it's real longevity is way better I wanted to save for Tom Ford Soleil Blanche,Annick Goutal Songes,Chanel Beige or D&G Dolce Garden(which is as expensive as the niche ones in my country) but now I feel that before thinking of any other beachy fragrance,I need to have Korloff Gold Thank you my lovely Fateme for introducing me such a lovely perfume

Korloff Gold is a sophisticated vanilla coconut with a tiny bit of underlying white florals and a dash of strawberry. The key word here IMO being 'sophisticated'. It is easy for coconut vanillas to turn cloyingly sweet and simple/linear, but this I feel does not belong to that particular group of fragrances. I've currently have CS Vanille Coco and in the past had FCUK Friction, both of which a coconut vanillas, but in a totally different category than Korloff Gold. Friction I really enjoyed for what it is, which is a carefree, summery sweet coconut vanilla, fruity type of scent, very laid back and beachy. I have not made up my mind yet about CS Vanille Coco, I've just got that one but first impressions fail to impress really. Korloff Gold however I adore. The addition of sweet Frangipani and Tiara flower probably makes the biggest difference. It is long lasting and has the most sublime coconut note that manages to hang around without ever becoming overbearing. It has a certain amount of sweetness but is not cloying or candy sweet at all. The most versatile and grown up coconut vanilla I have tried thus far.

Almost a dupe for Victoria's Secret Very Sexy Now 2016! Save for the beautiful and realistic strawberry fruit and leaves opening, melding in harmony with gardenia... Gorgeous. Dry down is almost identical to Very Sexy Now: gentle coconut and clean quality. Just check my laudatory review on VS Very Sexy Now 2016, since I don't have much more to say about Gold ; ))) Korloff Gold is quieter and understated though, it becomes a skin scent very quickly. Soft frangipani delicately replacing warm sand. Same as some other users, I have to douse myself because sillage is faint and longevity is weak. It's ok to reapply, the scent is far from overwhelming and it's better value than VS's. Still, I prefer it over the bazillions loud summer frags conveying tropical atmosphere, because it's so elegant and refined. I haven't tried layering both but that could be an idea, if I want to combine Very Sexy Now longevity with a blast of strawberry and frangipani from Gold for good measure.

OMG, this is beautiful! Coconut isn't strong and over the top, which is a good thing! Hate strong, overly sweet smells like that... In my imagination, this is exactly what a sunset, going into a warm summer evening would smell like. I get all of the notes listed except strawberry, but I only sprayed about a half-hour ago... Sprayed on my inner wrist and inside the crease of my inner arm (where the arm / elbow bends). Getting more florals inside the arm, muskier on the wrist. Definitely an expensive suntan lotion / tropical vibe! AWESOME trade! Thank you, @flamegrass! 😊 Update: While I still love and will keep it, the longevity is poor. Maybe two hours tops, 8 sprays, some on skin, some on clothes. Perhaps using with a body oil will be better?

This is a soft smooth well blended, slightly sweet fragrance. I mostly get a beautiful vanilla with a hint of coconut and tiare flowers in the background...The vanilla is sensual and puts me in mind of Mon guerlain for some reason!! The perfume lasts for 3-4 hours on me before needing to reapply.This is warm and comforting so I will be wearing this during summertime cuddle time too! I only wish it lasts longer and has a bit more sillage; otherwise it's a love at first smell!!

It smells like coconut and strawberry 🍓🥥just imagine how delicious and appealing that is! A sweet, yummy, fresh fragrance that’s perfect for all four seasons. I just wish it had a bit more longevity. I’m absolutely in love with its creamy coconut scent — pure love! بوی نارگیل و توت فرنگی. تصور کن چقد میتونه جذابو خوشمزه بشه یه عطر شیرین خوشمزه خنک و همه چیز تموم برای چهار فصل. فقط ای کاش موندگاری بیشتری داشت. عاشق بوی نارگیلی خامه ییشم عشقه عشقققق

Out of all the summer perfumes I have and have tried this is my favorite. It is so smooth and refined. To my nose it smells luxurious. Compared to intense tiare, which is a beast, it’s less floral and more creamy. Its a beauty I even like more than soliel blanc which is the ultimate bougie summer scent for me. Gorgeous and elegant and just makes me feel like I’m am one of those people that don’t have a care in the world when I wear this.

This gem is getting rare to find now, is it discontinued? I'm not sure... For me the main note is tiare flower, and then the coconut gives this perfume creaminess, strawberry is there only in the beginning, and using strawberry as an opening concert to tiare flower is sublime. Longevity is there for about 4 hours and then turn into skin scent that's still detectable for the next 6 hours with moderate silage.

This is so creamy and delicious. Honestly the best and most well rounded tropical summer scent I've smelled. Smells like coconut milk with tropical flowers. It lasts pretty well. 6/7 hours but after 2 hours the sillage is close to skin. It's perfect for the heat of the summer because it is not cloying or overpowering. This is perfect for the 90+ degree summer days here in Southern California.

Big frangipani & tiare notes, with fleshy coconut. There's a distinct wet green tropical note, like warm wet palm or banana leaves, quite distinct. The gardenia is well-blended, it isn't a heavy note. The name is a bit heavy-handed, it should be Korloff Sun or Korloff Summer.

I absolutely adore this perfume. It is so perfect for the summer time. I just blossoms on the skin in the sun. I wore it with Kayali Vanilla 28 and it's so so good together. It project for the first couple hours, then sits a lot closer to the skin.

Love this beautifully warm and intoxicating fragrance but let down with the longevity and projection - but at this price I’m happy to spray away throughout my day!

Such I surprise! I don't find the rest of Korloff fragrances interesting, but this is unique. It's long lasting, very feminine and the bottle is gorgeous.

This is a beautiful but it’s weak. If you want the same scent but stronger and more longer lasting get alien goddess

it really wonderful,so sexy, ellegant , thank u korloff!! good job!!

A very successful blind buy! I am a fan of beachy scents. I have Bobbi Brown Beach, Coccobello, Bronze Goddess, I love tropical, white florals like Lys Mediterranee, Matin d'Orage, Songes and Gardenia is my favourite flower, even though I have never lived in a tropical climate. However, there is always a risk that something advertised as 'tropical' and 'exotic/beachy' can smell sickly sweet, cheap and candy-like. There is a fine line and it took me a long time to search left and right for my favourite selection. Encouraged by the reviews - I bought Korloff. And to my relief - it's not that sweet! Strawberry is noticable. I really don't mind that hint of fruit - it's delicious. All of the lush, white florals are there - tiare, gardenia, frangipani, melted and carefully blended into one, buttery, creamy goodness, but without any of that 'solar sharpness' that can cause headaches and penetrate skulls. They rest on a delicate coconut/vanilla blanket base. It is a skin scent. I cannot wait for it to blossom in the heat. It's a fruity, distant relative of Songes and Crystal Noir and will make a delicious skin-scent for spring/summer.

Oh, I like this! I completely agree with SillySue below. This is a sophisticated gardenia/frangipani/coconut/vanilla scent. I don't get the strawberry though, but that doesn't mean it's not there. Projection seems to be decent, but it is still cold where I am and I imagine the heat will ramp up the projection even more. The feeling it gives off is also light and airy as opposed to thick and heavy, but it is a little oily. Korloff Gold is not a tropical cocktail type, it's very much on the elegant side of tropical. Something you'd wear to an expensive restaurant that overlooks the beach at sunset, champagne glass in hand. This reminds me of a more coconutty, more vanilla, softer gardenia version of Yves Rocher Monoi eau de Vahines, and I like it a thousand times better. I actually think lovers of Versace Crystal Noir would enjoy this when in need of something less potent and peppery, and a little sweeter. It's not sugary or sickeningly sweet, and let me clarify, I think the vanilla is soft enough that even vanilla haters could handle it. Longevity is about 8 hours. And that bottle...gorgeous! The picture doesn't do it justice.

I purchased this as a bedtime scent. Like many of us here, I wear perfume round the clock. I feel wasteful spritzing my more expensive scents before bed, but I find it comforting to fall asleep in a cloud of fragrance. This one is nice! I got it for around $20 on Fragrancenet during one of their 35% off sales. I wouldn't pay more for it, as it wears close to the skin and doesn't last very long. But, I'm asleep a few hours after I spray it anyway, so who cares?! After an initial coconut blast, I do get a suntan vibe from this. On my skin, it smells like I've just taken a shower and applied sunscreen over body lotion-- a little soapy/clean, a little vanilla, a little spf. Call me crazy, but on my skin, I get a whiff of Philosophy Amazing Grace in the distant background. It's faint, but I smell it. It may be the musk. Mainly, I smell a very clean vanilla. Quite lovely, actually. This may actually be a good wear-to-work scent. It's not headache-inducing, and it doesn't project much. Just makes you smell nice.

I had a little decant of this given to me, and I tried it several times without looking at the notes or being familiar with it in the least. At first spray and through the beginning of the development, it gives me a juicy sort of banana vibe. In fact, it's REALLY similar to Jwoww. But this is considerably lighter. I guess it's supposed to be coconut and strawberry, but I could swear it's banana and pear. Drydown does hint at some tropical florals, but the clear focus is on the fruit. To me, this just isn't a coconut scent really at all. It's more a dry woody vibe with vanilla (how I think they're creating "coconut" here). That being said, it's a happy, pleasant, thoroughly enjoyable scent. Certainly not on the level of Terracotta, so that sort of confuses me to see that comparison. I don't have need for a bottle since I have others in this genre that I prefer. But it's a nice tropical.
