Liquide

Got my bottle in today! This is/was one of my most anticipated orders ever. As a collector I think knowing they only made 999 of these I would have bought it regardless the smell, but I did sample it first and thankfully it was an instant love for me. Problem was by the time I got the sample the only place that still had stock was Scentsplit, and they had upped the price from $295 to $395. I waited about a day pondering if I wanted to spend that and decided I had to. At worst its an investment. Turns out I got the last bottle and the price jumped to $695 for backorders. Not sure they will be back though. Anyway the smell...(also ordered a 10ml decant from scentsangel. I'm not opening the numbered box) The solar notes is the star for me. They did an excellent job of relaying..well, liquid gold. Slightly warm like how the sunshine is on your face or the way the rays or heat from the rays smell shining into a room from a window. Although being my favorite part the Solar Notes are not all that's going on. Warm Musk is there with the Saffron just behind it as well as semi thick vanilla. Not dry but not full gourmand in the way it presents itself. Jasmine is around the edges and not hard to detect however also not sharp. Labdanum gives a leather feel to this, I can see how TF Ombre Leather is a candidate for a "reminds me of ". If you take a deep slow smell you can tie them together. To me, what first came to mind for some reason was Carlisle from PDM. side by side they are way different though. It's the way the Musk comes off. The way this is so well blended yet still able to pull singular notes is amazing in itself, typically you get it one way or the other. The Mandarin didn't jump out like I expected but rather it helped to create the "gold" mixing with the Musk, Saffron and Vanilla mainly. Overall this is a true masterpiece, I love it more and more and I notice more as I get to wear it. Unfortunate it's a limited stock but I'm grateful and very happy to be the owner of #485! I feel it's worth noting this is one of the most sexy fragrances I've ever smelled. Perfectly Unisex IMHO. (I'm a male) If you can find a bottle of this left don't hesitate. It's a banger! I'd say this is very versatile as well. Even summer nights I can see pulling this off no problem. I can't wait to experience this and pull back more layers. Awsome fragrance.

This is sooo beautiful!. It starts with leathery, metallic and saffron notes. The combination of top and middle notes gives this beautiful solar-sunny note which is very pleasant for my nose. I like to wear it during summer days because, this solar note during the sunny time of the day gives the feeling of natural skin-like very pleasant scent. What was the most impressive for me, is that it turns to creamy and sweet scent so silently and impressively that it's almost unnoticeable and then you realise that your nose now is smelling something totally different than it was in the beginning. At first when I wore it for the first time, after a few hours from spraying it, I was wondering what I was wearing and maybe it got mixed with the previous perfume that I was wearing, and then I realised that it performed to something different. Amazing, I really like it and the craftsmanship behind it pretty awesome. I would totally recommend it.

Liquide Gold blooms from the skin with diffusive orange blossom and saffron. It then calms down to a personal fragrance bubble consisting mainly of musks and soft vanilla. I believe this is meant to be an airy, gentle, caressing fragrance to warm the soul, not a 'Beast Bro' in the slightest. It's refined, and it's very very nice. BUT! (as someone who likes to tell it like it is) this does share a passing scent memory to several designer fragrances of the past, like Paco Rabanne 1 Million edt, and the Gaultier Le Male flankers as well as Gaultier 2), ones I used to wear all them years back. OK, Liquide Gold is more refined, subtle, expensive... but there is something in the DNA during the first few hours ( In my opinion! ) No big issue for me, just an observation! NOTE : A year and a half later, this quickly became a firm favourite.

Oh this is good. Can’t wait until the weather turns cooler so I can wear it more. I do see the similarities to Rosendo Mateu No. 5 & Merchant of Venice Vinegia 21, but Liquide Gold is lighter and more daytime appropriate. The Quentin Bisch fingerprint is apparent with this, and it does bear resemblance to Balmain Rouge and Maison Crivelli Tubereuse Astrale, which are other warm spicy floral loves of mine that QB composed. I really enjoy the DNA of Liquides Imaginaires and have yet to try something in this house that didn't appeal to me. Very well-blended thoughtful compositions that aren’t cranked out by the boatload. Appropriate for all genders, day or night, but probably best for fall and winter or cool summer nights.

A sweet resinous vanilla combined with saffron that creates an amber like scent for all ages because it’s not mature nor dated and I feel like even people who don’t care for amber will like this. Amber isn’t listed but a combination of the accords give me a polished sweet amber vibe. Smells opulent yet simple and I never detected any of the floral notes, which makes me happy. It’s slightly spicy and magical to me because I feel like it gives a radiant spectrum, as if spraying it will give you a golden aura... I love it when perfume makes me delusional! 😆 Unisex but I do imagine women loving it more. It’s a mystical but slightly snobby sweet fragrance. A more sweet and non powdery version of Material by Amouage maybe?
