White Luminous Gold

Update: A co-worker exclaimed as to how much they liked this fragrance. This is someone who does not readily remark on any fragrances I wear.I was contemplating giving away recently but decided not to based on the fact that it maybe deserved another look from me and be given another chance to experience another side of this one. It was initially just ok and was a safe blind reach for winter months. Hmmm, just three notes. They deserve 3 letters: W _ O _ W! ! ! I first wore this in the summer and it was ok in small doses. I put it away because this past summer was often hot as a blasted heath and this scent ramped up so much it was overwhelming. Mixed with heat and sweat seems to turn this beauty into a sour or pungent flower that wilts from the heat, turning into something I'd rather not be caught wearing around decent company. I feel I smell faintly unwashed somehow, even though that wouldn't be the case, and find myself desperately wishing to exit stage left, stage right or just beating a discreet but hasty retreat away from people. Now that it is winter time and the temps are much cooler I revisited my silver mini monument and there is a marked difference. I think this fragrance and I get along better in cooler times; I am enjoying WLG so much that I have reapplied to experience the delight of the top and middle notes again in the space of an hour or so. It is such a treat! Yes, as some have mentioned, it does seem a tad bit metallic, but that just adds to the beauty. I would not go so far as to call it a clinical, harsh metal, but more a metal that has been slowly warmed that you can feel comfortable with it against your skin, and the added benefit? I SMELLS LIKE AWESOMENESS AND UNICORN SNOT! (yes, I do, and you can too!)

The notes do not describe this scent accurately. I get vanilla, amber, and powdery iris, like a cross between powdered sugar and baby powder and Revlon's Fire and Ice. The pear note makes it vaguely metallic because pears have a faint metallic smell and taste to me (which I like). Really it is shocking to see such antipathy for this scent here. It's a gorgeous woody metallic amber vanilla powdery scent. Yes, it has a lot going on, but it's all beautiful. One word of warning - it's not weak or demure. Great on cold days or days when you can cocoon and take the time to appreciate such a complex scent. Overall it smells a lot like a basket of worn but not smelly laundry in which each piece has been sprayed with a different perfume. But in a good way!

i think this is one of the better scents in the gold line.......the amber is a standout & the jasmine is just plain beautiful in the mix :) i find this perfume to be very intoxicating :) rich, lux, warm & cozy.......its an amber lovers dream :) and it definitely has staying power & it is a bit strong so sensitive noses this may be too much for u lol - but its strong in a beautiful way :) i think just having 3 ingredients is the magic here - it gives the scent a chance to highlight its players & this scent does that well :) ps - love the chunky chic urban cool bottles too :)

I simply love this one. I get something 'green' (bergamot?) that I don't know where it comes from by looking at the notes. Then, it develops into a powdery jasmine with a green undertone. I think the powdery note comes from musk, but isn't listed and the amber in here is the same as MK's Sexy Amber- sweet vanilla almost milky. The longevity is about 6 hours on skin but it goes further on clothes. It's totally unisex.
