Golden Bloom

I like this fragrance, it's my favourite from the Massimo range. In contrast to a previous review here, I think it's the most unique out of the range. Also, I disagree that the main scent here is apple. It does list apple on the bottle and it plays a part, but for me part of the uniqueness is that the pear scent (which is also listed on the bottle) comes through most. In terms of performance, I think it performs better-than-expected for an Index brand perfume. It certainly performs better than a typical Zara perfume, for instance. If you apply this in the morning you will want to top up in the late afternoon / early evening. I would say it leans feminine, but any gender could wear this, and would most suit people 30+ in age.

Was at a Massimo Dutti store, didn't even know they sold perfumes, I decided to smell, and it was amazing. The vanilla is VERY prominent, easy on the nose, very fruity, but still quite masculine. I can't say anything about sillage or how long it lasted, since I just tested it, but that smell was intoxicating, found myself smelling my hand all through the mall. The dry down has that vanilla paired with the fruitier apple and pear, and later the floral notes, for only 30 BHD, solid buy if I say so myself.

Today I was at the Massimo Dutti store and tried it. Felt in love, really. For a clean and fresh floral scent, it really captivated me haha. I disagree with the comment that it doesn't have personality but I would also say that there is nothing outstanding in this fragrance. However, I do feel it is a really pretty scent and very unisex, though perhaps leaning slightly feminine because of the floral notes.

definitelt leans feminine wouldn't wear it myself, but a nice floral fruity soapy vibe is what I get, lasting power is pretty good, 7/10 you mostly have this tuberose-white floral soapy vibe and apple-pear fruitiness in the back in a very juicy way.

Fresh shampoo-like apple tuberose. Nice and great for spring. Doesn’t smell super groundbreaking or anything but in my opinion that really isn’t necessary. Its just super nice sunny clean fresh fruity floral just what i need on a sunny sunday out

A really nice and clean fruity floral. To me it smells like honeysuckle and pears, especially during the first minutes. Very easy to wear in spring and summer

Out of all 3 in collection most boring. The best is Zest. Good for someone without personality, some grey mouse in a corner who wants to remain invisible

I don’t agree that this fragrance has no character. I was actually surprised by its quality and performance for the fact it’s Massimo Dutti. It’s a sweet, very feminine tuberose-vanilla, the tuberose is quite loud.
