Two full notes alone carry the opening of Tous Gold Perfume, Brazilian rosewood and red currant leaf arriving warm and immediately distinctive, richer than the brand's usual, more typical floral openers elsewhere. Gardenia, peony, orange blossom, and rose take over the entire middle with genuine floral warmth that keeps developing steadily for many hours. White musk, iris, and Moroccan cedar ground the dry down in smooth, powdery depth that lingers gently on skin for many long hours.
Formal evenings and celebratory occasions both suit this floral Eau De Parfum equally well, opulent rather than restrained about its own considerable presence throughout. Tous built something genuinely luxurious here, entirely worthy of its own precious, gilded, radiant name and considerable overall presence.
