What do reviewers say about Gold and Wool?
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
This is the fragrance for someone who wants warmth without weight, sweet without sweetness that screams. The herbal artemisia keeps it from becoming dessert. The vanilla keeps it from becoming cold.Wool
