Mancera Gold Prestigium Sample

What we think:

Gold Prestigium is a lot more easily wearable take than the typical combination of these notes, though of course you do still need to be a fan of at least a smooth take on leather, rose, and oud to appreciate it. But it's not dark and pungent. It has a fresh side and a sweet side as well, and the spice isn't too hot or intense.

As the vanilla comes in, it adds a creamy sweetness that carries the rose and orange blossom along in a delicate way that pairs nicely with the robust other notes. The oud here isn't animalic or barnyard, and if anything the leather is a lot more prominent than the oud.

It's not for everyone, but if you like the idea of a more easily wearable and versatile take on a lot of these notes, it could be for you. It wouldn't necessarily work in super hot weather, but could easily work fall or spring in addition to winter, whereas a lot of these type of scents only work in cold weather.

Very unisex overall.
