About Amouage Gold Man
Gold Man is made by Amouage.
Sillage and projection
Projection is strong: people around you will notice it. Two sprays are usually enough.
How long Gold Man stays on skin
It stays on skin for about 9 to 12 hours, so one spray in the morning can carry you through the day. It lasts longer than Elizabeth Taylor Passion and Joop! Femme. Base notes like civet and musk are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Gold Man for work or evenings
It works better at night than in the day, so it is a good pick for evenings, dinners and going out. Its amber side feels cosy and rich after dark.
Who will like it
The strongest accord is musky (100%), followed by white floral and amber. You will probably like it if you enjoy musky and white floral smells and notes like jasmine and civet. Less obvious notes include incense, myrrh and oakmoss. Perfume fans rate it 4.25 out of 5.
