UTC Pure Gold Lady - Fragrance for Women - 55ml Parfum de Toilette, made by Milton-Lloyd

Product Information

Today my filling arrived, I sprayed full of joy and urgs, what is THAT? The prelude is for me not a bit citrusy as so often described here but a strange mixture of herbaceous and dusty, brrr. So I shrugged it off in horror and thought to myself, never jugde a book by its cover, we all know that first impressions are not necessarily decisive. So for the next hour I waited for this scent to sting my nose less. Wasn't that easy, because the sillage is already very pronounced to begin with and there was a sultry cloud of fragrance constantly wafting into my nose. Really not nice, especially since I can not even make out on the basis of the fragrance notes, what exactly disturbs me there actually just so. My search for the ultimate apricot fragrance continues and so I came across "Pure Gold" by Montale during my research. The pyramid sounded very appealing, most of the comments also, so I thought to myself, so wrong can not be. Oh, how lopsided I was wrapped there... Now, 4 hours later, it has developed into a quite pleasant, soft vanilla scent, but I get that with other fragrances and that without having to go through this top note before.

As fruity I do not feel this fragrance at all, also friendly is not an attribute that I would give him. Later this perfume starts to seem more like a nice floral with a slight soapiness. The floral component seems to me to be mainly jasmine. I was thinking that PURE GOLD was similar in some ways to Jennifer Aniston and DKNY Pure, but in side-by-side comparisons I changed my mind. PURE GOLD is much better than those. Perhaps the idea is similar, but in this case we have much better ingredients and execution. JENNIFER ANISTON veers too far in the industrial direction in an attempt to be clean. DKNY PURE has a touch too much woodish aromachemical stuff for my tastes. PURE GOLD is perhaps how those perfumes should smell, but they don't, which is probably why they are on their way out of the stores already...Montale PURE GOLD starts out as a fruity-floral blend with a lot of clean resinous musk. I find it somewhat nondescript, especially initially, when I have trouble discerning individual notes... except for the musk which is quite big.
