LP04 Golden Gem is a smoky, woody, Rose scent created for Men and Women by perfumers Frank Voelkl, Emilie Copperworth, and Alain Allione.
Review
This scent instantly feels woody, spicy, and sweet. Vanilla sweetens the natural sweetness that Cardamom can have, and then both are blended with the richness of Cedar Wood, Guaiac Wood, Patchouli, and a Fire accord. The Guaiac Wood and Fire accord add a nice smokiness to the mix, and Rose adds a faint floral essence that blends really nicely with the woods. It almost feels like you’ve added fresh Rose petals to a bonfire. It’s an interesting balance of sweet, woody, smoky and floral. It’s intoxicating and alluring. It has a subtle elegance to it that makes it work well for anything from in the office to drinks with friends, to spritzing it on with your little black dress for date night. It will work well in Fall, Winter, and Spring weather. It has a subtle reminiscence to Opus XII Rose Incense from Amouage. TRY THIS SAMPLE AND LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!
Inspiration
LP04 Golden Gem takes inspiration from the dignity and nobility of the confident individual, and those in the shadows watching with envious eyes. You are the center of attention here.
Notes
You can smell the Cardamom Oil and Vanilla blending together for a sweet and spicy essence as this scent opens. Soon after the Cedar Wood and Guaiac Wood come in, adding their woody nuances. A Fire accord adds a smoky quality, which is boosted by the earthy elements of Vetiver and Patchouli. Rose comes in towards the end, adding a gentle floral nuance that feels like a Rose infused bonfire. The sweetness fades towards the end, and the scent remains an intoxicating smoky, woody, Rose scent.
