Gold Bergamot & Vetiver Royale is a citrus, green, fresh scent created for Men and Women by perfumer Michel Germain for the Michel Parfum collection.
Review
This scent is fresh and romantic. The Vetiver is apparent immediately. Rosemary and Lavender add to the fresh, earthy quality of the Vetiver, and notes of Bergamot, Mandarin, and Grapefruit add a sparkling brightness. It is almost vegetal, but not quite, and has an intriguing bite to it like when a garden is coming to life and you can smell the tartness of the branches that have been broken open. It can be worn any time or place, for any occasion, and in any season or weather. This is a unisex scent, but if Xerjoff Nio had a more feminine styled counterpart, this would be it. Try this sample and let us know what you think!
Inspiration
The Michel Parfum collection takes inspiration from the grandeur and nobility of the royal courts, creating scents that are elegant, sophisticated, and timeless with a touch of sensuality.
Notes
Though Vetiver is found in the base of this scent, its potency creeps up and makes itself known immediately. Bergamot, Mandarin, and Grapefruit add a sparkling freshness that tempers the grassy quality that Vetiver naturally produces. Notes of Rosemary and French Lavender blend well with the earthy quality of the Vetiver, adding an elegant Green essence to the composition. Musk and Frankincense in the base add a gentle warmth that keeps this fragrance lasting.
