About

Golden Reception is Perfume Parlour's budget take on Reception (Amouage). It opens with Coriander, Pink Pepper, Coffee, leads into a heart of Frankincense, Patchouli, and dries down to Palo Santo, Vanilla, Musk. The overall character is woody with warm spicy and coffee facets. It is a lighter, more linear interpretation than the original - less of the expensive nuance, but the headline accord comes through clearly for casual everyday wear.
