The latest release from Sarah Baker and the third in the oud trilogy - Gold Spot drips with the glamour of the Golden Age of Cinema. The trilogy has been created by Chris Maurice, using three constant materials, natural oud, cypriol and orange blossom. Crucially, the perfumer has used these materials each time with a different set of adjuncts taking each composition in a new, different direction. With Gold Spot, Chris has added notes of sweet myrrh, butterscotch and dark chocolate to two natural oud tinctures, resulting in the most gorgeous chocolatey opening. If Loudo was a Milky Bar, Gold Spot is more of a Terry’s Chocolate Orange. Now imagine a whole stack of them, each one individually wrapped in the fine, glamorous golden wrapping of a Fererro Rocher and piled high on a silver tray at some schmoozy Oscars afterparty, Marlon Brando and Marilyn Monroe sat in the corner trying to surreptitiously conceal the chocolate stains around their mouth that betray their gluttony. Follow me on Instagram: @TheScentiest This is a perfume you’ll want to crack open and devour, whether dressed in a tux, or ball gown. The oud here is a little more animal than in previous releases, but I absolutely love it.
