Bath & Body Works Touch of Gold is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025, created by Nathalie Benareau. Touch of Gold opens with Blackberry, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, and dries down to a base of Tonka Bean. Bath & Body Works's Touch of Gold carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one's a bit of a chameleon - some find it an affordable dupe for high-end scents, others reckon it smells of old coins or slime. Regardless, it's a beast for longevity, punching well above its weight for a B&BW offering.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its impressive longevity and sillage for an EDT make it a bit much for the office if oversprayed, but perfect for a date night where you want to make an impression. The clean, cozy vibe also works well for casual wear, though it might be too heavy for vigorous sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opening with a burst of sweet blackberry, this fragrance quickly settles into a rich heart of orange blossom, which some find honeyed and others synthetic. The base of tonka bean adds a warm, almost amber-like sweetness, creating a clean, cozy and surprisingly complex scent that lingers.
