Poudre d'Or

Alas, why'd it have to be so expensive? Purchased a 5ml decant and am loving it. I actually don't get much musk or iris/powder, I'm getting a very rich, rounded, creamy tiare, that's sweet without being sickly, and merry without being sickening. It's a very solar, rounded white floral. I found this perfume after watching Jus de Rose's musky scents video - and while I love musk to death, this doesn't give me any musk. It's a beautiful balmy floral, but thankfully, I still do love it. Projection is insane - it's very strong, but has average longevity - about 4-5 hours on my skin. Its "solar" nature lends itself to a "summer-y" character, but because it's so rich and a little sweet, it could easily be worn all year round. Love it, and I may purchase a full bottle soon if I can persuade myself to fork out several hundreds for a bottle. - Edit: brought this out for a winter rotation, and I think I may have oversprayed. Five sprays in an enclosed car - instant migraine and nausea. Kind of glad I didn't buy it in the end - the association between it and nausea still persists.

Oh. My. Goodness. Poudre d’Or!!! Gold Dust (literally translated)...✨✨✨✨✨✨ Another successful blind buy and trust me, I was nervous about that one but oh my gosh, this is wonderful! Truly beautiful. It’s a warm floral fragrance that has a slight tropical and a slight sweetness aspect (emphasis on slight). But it is blended in a very nice way as the notes dance together rather than clash against each other. Powdery, floral, subtle tropics/sweetness, some woods peaking through...sigh, absolute goodness!! This is very classy, grown up and I’d say almost distinguished in a way. I’d imagine a queen or a head of state wearing this, I kid you not!! It leans quite feminine on my skin, I absolutely love this!! The projection/sillage are quite strong at first but it settles to a scent bubble quite nicely. Be prepared for compliments ✨✨✨ Thrilled to have this in my collection, I will be cherishing this!!

Oh this is so beautiful, creamy and soft and feminine. It’s like a almondy coconuty vanilla powdery iris cloud in the most luxurious way. So well blended. Very addicting. It’s not the sunscreen cloying Tiare. I do not like Tiare note for that sunscreen like smell to it, but in here I cant smell Tiare. If you don’t like Tiare in Fragrance, please still give this one a try because I’m with you on not liking Tiare. It does remind me of Micallefs Ylang in Gold and Roja pour Femme 51 but yet it’s different, it’s more soft. I have to say I like this one the most. It’s absolute perfection. It’s gorgeous, favorite from the house so far. Such a gorgeous hidden gem. I wore it the other day and longevity was about 4-6 hours may be will be longer in colder days, but i could smell my own sillage when i turned my head. Just so good.

I just have to come back to this to give it a proper review... I think this perfume is a masterpiece. If I had to choose one thing to smell like forever I think it would have to be this. It’s so delicate, almost creamy, it has the perfect amount of sweetness. It’s not a dry screechy type of powdery, it’s just perfect. Everything is blended so well. Something about the drydown smell of this reminds me of a smell from years ago. Im in Southern California and I would often go to Disneyland; and this perfume smells like the area entering the park/the general close area. I’m not sure what the combination of flowers + the smell Disney pumps around is, but it was so similar to this. I haven’t noticed that smell at the Disney park lately sadly, but smelling this reminded me of it and I adore it.

This is so effortless and chic. If my mother was still alive this is what she would wear. I am having one of the hardest weeks of my life and had to meet a client today. I spritzed this on and immediately thought of her. Like she was wrapping her arms around me. A whiff of clean laundry, baked goods off in the distance left out from the morning. Clean hair. A linen dress. This woman drives an expensive SUV and wears a Rolex everyday. She is the kindest human you will ever meet and nothing bad ever happens when she's around. UPDATE : I get compliments EVERY TIME I wear this! It is so balmy, tropical, warm and comforting. I can't imagine not having this in my collection IT IS SO GROWN UP AND PERFECT! The longer I have it the more I LOVE IT!

an opulent melange with creamy citruses and gourmand spice flourishing, symphonized with sumptuous florals,the silky ambers in mid notes, it smells so unimaginable here, the anagogic patchouli and metallic-earthy facades are used in a very earnest and heart-warming course through the marrow of this ingredient bouquet, it fuses so profoundly with milky sandal and heady vanillic notes in the understructure ingredients that I simply cannot get enough from this unique concoction when I meet my friends for an outdoor event, since its trail is so effective and smells still very light, fresh and airy without making any compromises from being full of character

Omg. Tropical musk heaven!! I absolutely love this, it's a creamy, fluffy, tropical musk, like a creamy realistic coconut milk fresh from the fruit, which doesn't smell so much of coconut but more so of a green fresh milky silky juice. This is definitely going into my best of musks row, and maybe even into the tropicals, because this is a divine tropical scent too. Jasmine super subtle which is a good thing in this scent. There is something familiar in this scent too, I have found why - it's a bit like Casmir by Chopard, but of course a lot more niche and high in quality. Casmir might be a good cheaper more sweet alternative.

Swoon 🥰... my favorite from the house so far. Just completely stunning. Beautiful, creamy iris and white florals, supported by smooth pale woods. Very little vanilla on me, and I appreciate that. Its perfect for almost any occasion and season. Difficult to deacribe despite a small note breakdown. It does indeed give high end suntan lotion. There's no coconut here to speak of though. It is achingly soft, feminine, delicate. A classic picture of femininity. Very textural in that its soft, but not smooth. Highly recommend if this is your style. Terrible longevity but well worth the reapplications.

Alberto has done it again! I have respect for so much of his work but there are some that speak to me of perfection. This scent has ethereal, divine qualities. The orange blossom is so delicate and tiptoes over a vanilla meringue. The tiare is also wispy-delicate and is hand in hand with the orange blossom. This delicious cloud is such a pleasure to wear. I feel happy and delighted every time It weaves into my senses. For anyone who loves Alberto and is familiar with his elegant and masterful touch, this blind buy is safe as houses. It edges out Solar Blossom as my favourite.

The opening of Poudre d'Or really smells like Ylang in Gold. Compared to Ylang in Gold, this is more powdery, floral, cleaner, well-blended, all-seasons. While Ylang in Gold is better in summer, also it's more fruity & tropical. After the drydown, I don't think they are very similar, but still in the same vain. Now the scent is even more floral and sweeter than the opening. (vanilla and sandalwood are joining now.) Love the name too!! Gold Dust! <3 Sillage is moderate, the scent bubbles are around you. Sooo lovely. Really wanna try more from this house.

This fragrance is absolutely beautiful. Powdery, dreamy, intoxicating white florals. Very feminine. I didn't expect to love it as much as I do but it has become as close to a signature scent as I could fathom. It's got pretty great lasting power which says a lot because almost everything turns into a skin scent within an hour on me and I can still smell this after several hours. I've gone through more than I care to admit in the roughly two months that I've had it. I try not to keep backup bottles these days but this is definitely bub worthy <3

Caved in, and got this. I've nothing but eulogies for it. It's just basically supremely excellent. Soft, creamy, luscious, scrumptious, heady ... and funky in the most sublimated & delicate way you could possibly reasonably ask for. Even my very harshest fragrance critic (not the one who told me never to go near her wearing POAL ever again - that's only my second harshest) ... no my very harshest critic, faltered at this one!

Oh my.... Elegant and comforting! It is very long lasting, too. I do not think it is powdery, it smells sirupy/sweet to me! I adore Alberto Morillas’ creations :) The packaging was also great! I look forward to trying more from Mizensir 🥰 Someone on YouTube mentioned that everything from Mizensir has one thing in common: elegance. I can second that!

I wouldn't consider this fragrance powdery as much as I would fluffy and creamy. The florals are so well blended and mesh very softly into the skin, not heady at all. The Sandalwood and vanilla rounds Poudre d'Or into a comforting, and sophisticated scent. This is my calming fragrance.

This is such a warm, creamy, “solar” perfume. It smells exactly like when you are on a tropical holiday and you take a shower and put some body cream, all using the fancy products you found in the hotel bathroom, mixed with the sunscreen you had on during the beach day.

Goes on like suntan lotion, white exotic flower and a warm creamy base. Dries down like a beautiful luxurious cosmetic cream. Warm, elegant, discreet. A good office scent. Bound to get compliments. Lasting power at least 8h. Safe blind buy I should say.

It’s a lovely musky skin scent. It has a vanilla note, which is a bit different than the other skin scents I own, but still not sure if I need a full bottle. Maybe if I can get a great deal...

I decided to declutter it. It is too cloying for me. DM me if you want (UK only) - 100 GBP. offer available

I love this and I am looking for a full or even a partial bottle for swap. Located in France

My second bottle is very weak. Its not as creamy as used to. bummer!
