Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, yet undeniably captivating. Some find Goldea a 'genius in simple things' that screams 'synthetic money', while others recoil from its 'overly sweet and loud' nature. A rich, golden scent with a maturity that splits opinions.
This is a serious love-it-or-hate-it scent; definitely not a safe blind buy. For those who get it, Black Datura is a dark, intoxicating white floral that casts a bewitching spell. For others, it's a scrubber. Try before you commit.
