Description
Designer Marc Jacobs released a new flanker of Decadence perfume under Coty, Decadence 18k Limited Edition. The original comes in a miniature purse-shaped bottle in emerald green and decorated with snake pattern, gold chain and black silk tassel, while the new limited edition is presented in shades of gold as a symbol of luxury and glamour.
The aroma is identical to the original luxurious and sensual woody fragrance. Its top notes include Italian plum, iris and golden saffron. Bulgarian rose, orris root and jasmine sambac create an exotic bouquet at the heart, supplemented with sensual notes of liquid amber, papyrus wood and vetiver. Decadence was developed by Annie Buzantian and Ann Gottlieb.
The fragrance is available as a 100 ml Eau de Parfum in a gold-tinted glass bottle with a python patterned cap, a gold chain and a black silk tassel. The box is also lavishly colored in gold. Decadence One Eight K Edition was launched in 2016.

I saw it recently in a local perfume shop and I had to try it as I love Decadence and this golden bottle is truely gorgeous and eye catching.I knew nothing about that whether it’s a limited edition of the original Decadence or is a new flanker when I sampled it I was trying to find a slight difference to justify having them both but to my nose it was identical to Decadence in green bottle.the same jammy plummy opening,the same dark powdery,woody dry down,the same decent longevity and projection
There’s less than half remained in my bottle of Decadence (the green one) so I’d buy this one as a gorgeous backup if it wasn’t this expensive but as it is I’d rather pay this much to try a totally new perfume,say Divine Decadence
باوجود اینکه بعضی از ریویوها ادعا میکنن که این ادیشن با ورژن اصلی متفاوته،به مشام من کاملا یکسانن.همون شروع شیرین و آلویی،همون ادامه ی پودری و همون درای داون چوبی.همون رایحه خاص و جذاب و منحصربفرد،همون پخش و موندگاری رضایتبخش،اینبار تو یه شیشه فوق‌العاده زیبای آینه ای-طلایی
باوجود اینکه خیلی دوسش دارم باتوجه به قیمت تندش ترجیح میدم به جای دوباره گرفتن همون عطر تو یه شیشه متفاوت،یه عطر جدید رو امتحان کنم،مثلا فلنکر دیواینش رو ک رایحه کاملا متفاوتی داره

I love the original Decadence! This is said to be identical but on my skin this is a heavy, powdery mess. Almost like a veil of dust. Makes my eyes itch. On the plus side these two fragrances have pretty good lasting power!

I try the original one but I really like this one so much both of decadence have the same opening but the one eight edition dry down into an amazing scent

The original and this are not exactly the same. I have both. This is good but the original is better.

I think I love the bottle more than the juice itself. The bottle has a very reflective (almost mirror like) finish with a bulky textured plastic cap and a thick gold chain. It reminds me of a MJ small boxed trouble bag and I almost wish there was a hidden compartment in the cap, to perhaps slip a lipstick, or a bank card. If I was describing the bottle, then ‘decadent’ would certainly be the right word. As for the juice itself, it opens with a burst of pluminess which makes it very likeable in the first instance. It dries down quickly on me and from here, I get a strong sense of the rose with a light powdery flare about it. Its nice, its feminine, it won’t offend your neighbour but with a ‘wow’ factor bottle it almost feels the complete opposite with the perfume. I’m wearing it in Winter so maybe better suited to warmer days. Still happy to have bought a bottle though.

I’ve seen sales assistants trying to pass this off as an intense version of the original. AAAARGH drives me mad!
It’s just a limited edition bottle, same juice inside!!

Having both the original green bottle Decadence and the One Eight K (18K) and trying them both independently, and at the same time on each wrist, I don’t discern any real difference between the two. The only true flanker to the Decadence line is Divine Decadence, with it not even being a lighter version but an entirely different fragrance.
I agree with the article assessment that it is a matter of preference for the gold or the green bottle, both being gorgeous in my opinion. Referring to the original Decadence article and reviews will give you the info you need to evaluate the fragrance itself.
If Decadence is for you, you have an additional display or gift opportunity with this “flanker” with the different look. The bottle itself, which you can’t tell clearly from the picture, is a highly reflective mirrored gold that provides a nearly opaque environment for your perfume to mature, in a light protected environment so you can display it in a non direct sunlight area. The green bottle provides a good protection as well, being a deep enough green to make light less able to penetrate than a clear glass bottle would.
Loving this fragrance the way I do, I am especially appreciative of the options and protective bottles. And this special edition bottle is very aptly named as 18K, it truly is golden.
