Lalique Woody Gold is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Mathilde Bijaoui. Woody Gold opens with Bergamot and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Neroli, and dries down to a base of Vanilla Absolute, Tonka Bean, Cashmeran, and Amberwood. Lalique's Woody Gold carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This is a brilliantly divisive scent, with some finding it a unique and elegant twist on classic oriental themes, while others struggle with its sharp citrus opening and synthetic undertones. Not for everyone, but certainly distinctive.

Scent Profile

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.

About

Opening with a bright, almost metallic burst of bergamot and mandarin, Woody Gold quickly moves into a surprisingly creamy neroli heart. The base settles into a smooth, airy warmth of vanilla absolute, tonka bean, and cashmeran, underpinned by a subtle amberwood, creating a sophisticated and somewhat ethereal dry-down that defies typical heavy oriental expectations.
