What do reviewers say about Gold and Gaya?

Gold is unapologetically bold and animalic. The Civet and Ambergris in the base will polarize, and the Jasmine-Myrrh heart commands attention. It truly fills a room.Gold

Gaya doesn't play it safe, the mango-milk-o ud combination is unusual in the best way. Sweetness that feels warm, not juvenile. Strong projection means you'll be noticed.Gaya
