The Merchant of Venice Gold Regatta is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Véronique Nyberg. Gold Regatta opens with Red Algae and Fig, settles into a heart of Salt, Immortelle, and Woody, and dries down to a base of Amber and Vanilla. The Merchant of Venice's Gold Regatta carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This marine-leaning vanilla beast performs like a champ, but its unique salty, dirty, and sweet profile makes it a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Definitely not a blind buy unless you're a fan of esoteric fig and seaweed perfumes.

About

Gold Regatta opens with an intriguing blend of red algae and fig, creating a peculiar yet captivating marine-fruity start. As it develops, a prominent salty note emerges, mingling with the sweet, creamy warmth of vanilla and amber, underpinned by a robust woody backbone. There's a subtle herbaceous quality from immortelle, adding to its complex character. It’s a scent that evokes the sea, but not in a fresh, airy way; more like a salted, sun-drenched piece of driftwood washed ashore.
