Our verdict on Злато Скифов: Acquired

This Soviet-era gem is a deeply polarising one. Some find it a timeless, luxurious classic, evoking warmth and comfort. Others describe it as harsh and dated, with notes that turn unpleasant on their skin. Best try before you buy.

Its potent projection and long-lasting nature, coupled with its rich, warm-spicy and woody accords, make it unsuitable for office wear or sport. However, these qualities lend themselves beautifully to formal events and date nights where making a statement is desired.

About

Opening with a sharp burst of aldehydes and green notes cut with bergamot, this scent swiftly transitions into a rich, spicy heart of red apple, peach, ylang-ylang, clove and carnation. The warmth deepens with an amber-vanilla sweetness, as earthy patchouli, oakmoss and smooth sandalwood create a complex, woody oriental dry down with a distinctly vintage appeal.
