Rose Radiant Gold

This was a rare modern fragrance purchase for me. I wanted something nice to bring back to my mother from the USA. Of all the bottles I sniffed at in Saks, mostly Michael Kors, this one seemed softer than the rest, floral and musky. So I chose that one to apply, and went to look at some clothes. As I walked around the store I found myself sniffing my wrist more and more as the fragrance changed. I was loving it more and more as it wore down to the base. There is a hint of something sharp, citrusy or white floral, that is common in modern perfumes and that I find cloying and headache-inducing, but it's only a hint, I can live with it. So I bought it hoping that my mother can smell it (she can't smell much anymore, even ones she can't smell she still wears because she wants to feel like she smells good). When she tried it on she loved it! Not as much as she loves Alien EDT, but still a love. I find the white floral note similar between these two perfumes. She also loved the bottle, which is simple and beautiful, just like the fragrance it contains. If you've tried the other Michael Kors fragrances and found them a bit strong you might still enjoy this one.

I saw Michael Kors' Radiant Gold at Wal-Mart and gave it a smell and I loved it; it was so unusual, unique and overwhelming for a man's cologne. They were asking 50 dollars for a one ounce bottle. I looked up Ebay and found a 3.4 oz. bottle for around $50 and- I don't know how I could have missed this but - I then realized it was a ladies fragrance. But I liked it so much that I wasn't about to let that deter me. Now I can get a whiff anytime I want and I'm gonna wear it out soon. Funny thing I just noticed, I'm wearing Rocawear X right now and as I'm composing this review I keep thinking I smell the Kors. Lovely.

I noticed this perfume today and decided to give it a try. Well, I am in heaven. I couldn't dream of something sunnier in that gloomy day outside. When someone post a thread about creamy perfumes, this would be my number one suggestion. It's like tamed version of Terracotta and for some reason reminds me of sand, suntan lotion and necklaces of exotic flowers. I am sure this is not the full list of notes, I can smell coconut in it. Perfect choice for a summer vacation.

I'm surprised by all the negative reviews of this one! A little sharp on first spray, but it settles down into a lovely, sweet floral. I find it wearable day and night, definitely not a teen's fragrance. To me, it smells classy and sophisticated without being heavy. It may not be very unique, but it smells nice!

The notes listed are incomplete IMO! I definitely smell Rose and Gardenia in this & there are zero spice notes to my nose, but it is absolutely beautiful on my skin. Good silage & longevity too. Going on my want list.
