I received a sample of this and wore it for a few days. In the bottle, this stinks. I smell stinky animal musk, and a crisp apple note that I wish I could get more of but is overpowered by the musk. But don’t let the smell in the bottle turn you away! It opens up totally differently on my skin.
I don’t get leather at all. The combo of all the notes creates something similar, but I can definitely distinguish all the notes.
Opening is fresh, crisp, musky apple.
At first on the dry down, it becomes way to stanky musky for me. Yuck.
But after about 10 min it calms down. The musk reduces to a delicate base that complements all the other notes. All the other notes come through and I smell vanilla, white flowers, and the crisp apple from the opening comes back. The only note I don’t smell is the pepper.
I love it on my skin. I was afraid it would be too masculine on me because of the musk, but it dried down quite nicely. I would describe the smell and expensive and crisp. Reminds me of a botanical garden in the hot sun.
I would purchase this as a summer perfume. It wears really well in the heat. But right now I’m looking for a spicy fall scent so the search continues!

Surprisingly, these notes combine to create a leather accord. It’s actually quite nice. Don’t blind buy though…

Some perfumes you enjoy a lot for several different reasons and some other scents you just connect with in a more intimate level, that is the case of Gold I, my personal favorite from Widian.
This is a blend that can transport me, gives me inner peace and strength.
A great representation of what is perhaps the most precious , multifaceted, intriguing of all ingredients “oud”, infused into a blend of various resins to create an intoxicating amber accord of the highest quality, with added musk for an extra layer of funk, but not to much, just the right amount, and fruity floral nuances are also present throughout the scent life on my skin.
Vanilla and sandalwood rounds of the base adding a sweet creamy texture to the majestic blend,
Honestly speaking, words cannot do any justice to the depth and beauty of this jewel.

L’apertura iniziale ricorda fortemente il formaggio gorgonzola (per chi lo conosce),nota data dalla presenza maestosa del legno di Oud e muschio. Poi cambia e diventa più simile alla pelle e ricorda in modo molto suggestivo un paesaggio del medio Oriente.
Molto particolare, sicuramente non per tutti.

Upon initial application from the sample there was a powerful but not overly sweet flower note that I cannot identify. Within seconds it was replaced by the overwhelming musk. This must be some high quality straight from the animal gland musk cause it has some skank on it. I’m not a fan.
