Description

Besides the latest edition Living Lalique to mark the year of 2015 of the house of Lalique, a new collection of fragrance inspired by precious metals was introduced. It arrives after last year’s collection Lalique Noir Premier La Collection and follows the tradition and style of the house. Flacons of the new collection Lalique Les Compositions Parfumees Collection were created in the same style as the flacons of men’s fragrance Hommage a l’homme Voyageur presented last year, made of blurred glass with a black stopper.

The latest collection Lalique Les Compositions Parfumees includes the following editions: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Electrum and Zamak. “A harmonious blend of metals melted together as perfume raw materials arrive united in a collection of beautiful and unique fragrances. Five different fragrances are based on alloys of metals and precious metals”.

Bergamot and lemon provide shine to Gold. The heart incorporates iris, Egyptian jasmine and lily of the valley, sophisticated flowers that possess the quality of gold, while the base closes with benzoin, patchouli and vanilla blended to imitate its richness.
The nose behind this fragrance is Mathilde Bijaoui.

    Gold in its purist form is a bright, slightly reddish yellow metal which is soft, malleable and ductile. Due to its medium rarity, easy handling, easy smelting, distinct color and corrosion resistance, the metal has long been a valuable and highly sought-after precious metal for coinage, jewelry, and other arts since before the beginning of recorded time. In order to evoke gold’s brightness, rarity and beauty, the perfumer begins the composition with an enlightening hesperidic accord of lemon and bergamot. It is a sunny yellow opening, with acidic lemon dominating. The effect is glowing and gleaming as if light hitting a highly polished piece of gold. A faint floral mid-range follows, comprised of Egyptian jasmine, iris, and muguet. Offering gentle sweetness, jasmine and muguet lend their own fresh-citrusy and green tonalities to the proceedings, while iris yields a powdery glow. An oriental base of vanilla, patchouli, and benzoin conclude the France in the base. It is the rich and gourmand vanilla which permeates, combining with the opening citrus and conjuring visions of decadent lemon chiffon cake. ‘Gold’ is far from gourmand, but the delicious paring of vanilla and lemon in the architecture is undeniable.
    Utilizing a warm, vanilla-oriental accord, ‘Gold’ evokes the metal’s luster and brilliance. Easily unisex, the composition blurs the lines between masculine and feminine. Longevity is average to above while sillage and projection are average for this “eau de parfume”. It seems the perfect accompaniment for a bright, sunny spring or summer day, as ‘Gold’ radiates a joyous, optimistic tone. Those not keen on strong lemon-based fragrances may wish to pass by this composition, as the opening spray is quite laden with the sour fruit’s pungent aroma. Fortunately, it never quite veers into the household cleaning product type lemon odor (Lemon Pledge furniture polish comes to mind), though it does skim the surface of conjuring up artificially flavored lemon candies (Lemonheads anyone?). I did appreciate the perfumer’s artistic ability in attempting to translate gold’s metallic qualities into an abstract medium, as in this effort I feel they succeeded. Unfortunately, in choosing to feature lemon so prominently they gave birth to a fragrance which some might consider too pedestrian and mundane.

    Just got the answer from Lalique official representative:
    GOLD = Sidonie LANCESSEUR
    BRONZE = Richard IBANEZ
    ZAMAK = Dorothée PIOT
    SILVER = Sidonie LANCESSEUR
    ELECTRUM = Mylène ALRAN
    Gold is the best and unique of all Les Compositions Parfumees! A quintessence, an “absolu” of GOLD itself!
    And no doubt was created by Sidonie’s Lancesseur golden hands and nose. Thank you!

    Gold by Lalique is part of the Les Compositions Parfumees 2015 release. A collection of five perfumes that are all based on precious metals. This is a very interesting and exciting point of view for perfume. To create in scent the image, the essence and the emotions elicited by highly prized earthly elements that in essence have no real olfactory signature. The other four perfumes are Electrum, Zamak, Bronze and Silver. It seems only fitting that we begin with gold.
    The nose behind Gold is at this point a mystery. I could not find out who it is but perhaps that just adds to the glamour of this fragrance. A perfume that is smooth and polished to a brilliant shine. Almost austere but there is a warmth in it that like Gold itself draws one in with its fascinating glow. Enticing velvety and rich. There is a velvet buttery beauty to gold when it is polished to mirror brilliance. It is the element that can only be created in the universe when a star goes super nova. The death of a star creates our most precious metal here on earth. Gold is so rare and prized that the ancient Egyptians believed that the skin of the gods was made of it. And of course if you drop the “L’ from gold in English, what do you have? God.
    Gold opens with only two top notes, bergamot and lemon, this is I am told meant to create the brilliance of gold. In fact in the opening the spark of the two citrus notes is brilliant and illusive. It glitters on the skin but momentarily and then streaks away leaving the way open for the star of the perfume, a note that resembles the heavy beauty one finds in the finest of Italian gold jewelry.
    Before our star note arrives in the mid notes of the perfume there are satellite notes, lovely ones of Egyptian Jasmine and lily of the valley. They are soft and hum in the background like a Greek chorus announcing the arrival of the superstar. It enters as a gorgeous smooth hard edged iris note that if left on its own could very well be too dry, somber and severe. But there is a surprise in the bottom notes that gives the iris a warmth and beauty beyond expectations.
    The bottom notes are a gift to the iris. And this surprise package is wrapped in earthy patchouli. Within the box as the patchouli gives way is the gift of the perfumer that complements the iris, a stunning blending of vanilla and benzoin. Here is a creamy buttery mix that never goes sweet or cloying but in its marriage with the iris they turn Gold into a golden beauty.
    This is a floral chypre that is elegant, smooth and perfect for almost any season. It has both masculine strengths and feminine curves. A uni-sex perfume that invites one in and enhances the beauty of the wearer with its brilliance and allure. When you wear Gold on your skin there is no reason to wear anything else.
