Orlane Derrick Absolute Gold is an Eau de Parfum. Derrick Absolute Gold opens with Orange, Mandarin, Pink Pepper, and Cinnamon, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Jasmine, Cardamom, and Clove, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Teak. Orlane's Derrick Absolute Gold carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This one's a bit of a let-down, to be honest. It starts off promising with a classic spicy warmth, but the performance is so weak you'll wonder if you even sprayed anything. A cheap thrill that barely lasts a moment.

Given its warm, spicy and citrus character, this scent is versatile, though its reported poor longevity and sillage mean it's unlikely to offend in an office setting. However, it's not robust enough for formal events or sports, and its fleeting nature makes it less ideal for a date where you want a lasting impression.

About

Derrick Absolute Gold opens with a lively burst of citrus from orange and mandarin, quickly spiced up by cinnamon and a subtle kick of pink pepper and thyme. The heart unfolds with a rich tapestry of clove, cardamom, nutmeg, and a touch of sweet apple, brightened by jasmine and orange blossom. It dries down to a soft, woody base of teak and cedar with creamy vanilla, warm amber, and a clean musk.
