Review
This scent is a blast of fruits and citruses, as with its counterpart, Erba Pura. The addition of spices and woods blends with the Vanilla and Amber, creating a smoother, creamier, warmer essence. Just like Erba Pura, it energizes the senses with its bright fruity, citrusy blend. It is a versatile scent that is both playful and sophisticated, and can be worn any time or place, and for any occasion. It can be worn in any season with its playful energy being perfect for the Spring and Summer, and its brightness chasing away any Winter Blues. It is compared to Xerjoff Erba Pura, and has similarities to Giardino Benessere Febe.
Inspiration
Originally created for the Sospiro perfume house, Erba Gold takes inspiration from the beauty, sophistication, and splendor of classical music. It moves your senses, in a similar way to music, harmonizing with the skin and taking you on an enchanting journey.
Notes
Green Apple and Melon stand out above a citrus blend of Lemon, Bergamot, and Orange. Ginger boosts the citrus notes, creating energy, with a sweet hint of Pear following close behind. Cardamom and Cinnamon add a faint spicy essence, while Amber, Musk, and Woody Notes add a balanced warmth. Vanilla comes in at the end, adding a smooth quality that boosts the sweeter essences, keeping them thriving within the gentle warmth.
