Never mind the Palissandre (genus
Dalbergia, which includes the rosewoods), Alberto Morillas’ fragrance for me is
all about patchouli: damp, earthy, forest-floor patchouli that’s only mildly
camphorous. The golden adjective can here parhaps be understood as a reference
to the honied rose that clasically complements the former and develops off the
back of a pink pepper topnote. This sweetness is then carried through to the
base, albeit in a much drier form, with a mix of Ambrox and balsamic notes,
finally settling into a powdery blend of cedar and musks.
