Which Should You Buy?
This one is a proper 'love it or hate it' scent, no two ways about it. Expect compliments from its admirers and raised eyebrows from those who find its rose and patchouli combo a bit much. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
Gold XI follows Kayali's discontinued Elixir 11, that gorgeous apple-rose into patchouli-amber-vanilla. Perfume Parlour captures the fruity-rose opening and warm gourmand-woody base, pushing the vanilla a shade sweeter while the rose feels a little less refined than the original.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its strong projection and intense, complex profile make it less suitable for a quiet office, but perfect for evenings and dates where you want to make a statement. While some find it too heavy for casual wear, others appreciate its warmth, especially in cooler weather.
Seasons
The warm patchouli, amber and vanilla over fruity rose lean cool-weather, peaking in autumn and winter while still pretty in spring.
Occasions
Romantic and warm, it favours evenings and dates, with enough versatility to carry through a normal day or dress up.
