Orlov Paris Golden Prince is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Sidonie Lancesseur. Golden Prince opens with Red Fruits, Spicy Notes, and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Cedar, Nutmeg, Incense, and Juniper, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Oakmoss. Orlov Paris's Golden Prince carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

A solid, familiar, woody-spicy scent that some find a bit generic, but it's a dependable and well-behaved choice for the office and casual wear. Not groundbreaking, but reliably good.

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.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Eugenol from Nutmeg
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Golden Prince kicks off with a bright, zesty grapefruit and a subtle burst of red berries, underpinned by a fresh spice. As it settles, a clean, aromatic heart of juniper and cedar merges with the smoky depth of incense and a hint of nutmeg. The dry-down reveals a classic woody base of vetiver, creamy sandalwood, and earthy oakmoss, blending into a smooth, slightly mossy finish.
