Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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 Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent, warm spicy and amber character, combined with reports of strong projection, makes it less suited for an office environment. However, its luxurious and sensual aura makes it perfect for dates and evening formal events, especially in cooler weather. It's a bit much for casual daytime wear unless you’re making a statement.

About

Onyx Gold bursts open with a boozy hit of rum, sharpened by spicy ginger and cardamom, with a tart kick of bitter orange. As it settles, a lush heart of dried fruits and jasmine emerges, wrapped in creamy sandalwood. The base is an indulgent blend of warm vanilla, tonka bean, and earthy patchouli, grounded by exotic myrrh, creating a smooth, resinous, and subtly powdery finish.
