Golden Neroli, from Abel was released in 2016. The perfumer behind this creation is Isaac Sinclair. It has the top notes of Neroli and Tea, middle notes of Jasmine, Petitgrain, and Ylang-Ylang, and base notes of Sandalwood and Vanilla.
This fragrance came highly recommended by a fragrance pal on IG and she wasn’t wrong, it’s a lovely smelling thing and pretty unique from my perspective. The best thing about it is that there’s barely any neroli to be found in this and golden hardly represents the aroma for me is more of a pastel pink hue. This is largely down to a fruity top notes which almost turn slightly figgy and a creamy sweetness of vanilla and sandalwood. It has a childlike, confectionary aura but never cheap, this thing is classy as hell and never overly sweet. As I said it’s a revelation to me as I’d never heard of the brand and was subverted somewhat by the neroli in the name. I need to wear it again to make my mind up about performance but this was a standout and memorable experience, Golden Neroli is a hit with me.
