Carolina Herrera Gold Myrrh Absolute is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Véronique Nyberg and Alex Lee. Gold Myrrh Absolute opens with Immortelle and Pepper, settles into a heart of Cacao Pod and Licorice, and dries down to a base of Vanilla and Myrrh. Carolina Herrera's Gold Myrrh Absolute carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

This one's a divisive beauty. Some adore its luxurious, dark chocolate and resinous warmth, while others find it too dry, too spicy, or simply underwhelming. Either way, it's a statement.

About

Gold Myrrh Absolute opens with a surprisingly vibrant kick of black pepper and the unique, hay-like sweetness of immortelle. It quickly settles into a rich heart of powdery cacao and a subtle hint of liquorice, conjuring images of artisanal chocolate. The dry down is a deeply enveloping blend of warm myrrh and creamy vanilla, creating an elegant, sophisticated aroma that lingers like an expensive secret.
