  A wonderful surprise, ideal if you approach perfumery without complexes. Charriol, a brand I didn’t know in Spain, here delivers a perfume that touches on excellence and is found at a fair price. One couldn’t expect less with Michel Almairac involved. The inspiration is clear: Tom Ford’s Black Orchid, but whereas that is feminine, Royal Gold focuses on men with a woody base, without losing its exotic and gourmand touch (almond, tonka, iris). It offers sophistication and a costly aroma, ideal for cooler temperatures. Its potency surpasses Tom Ford’s; it’s an all-day perfume with excellent longevity that doesn’t fade and leaves a delicious trail. In short, a gem of a perfume that deserves to be better known.

  Ask someone what friendship is, or ask yourself; dozens of poets have tried without a definitive answer. Some say it doesn’t exist or that you only have three or four true friends; others claim anyone kind counts. This blog is incredible: I’ve met people with kindness and a demeanour hard to find in real life, earning their respect. Sejano 77 is one of them. Thanks to a sample from his collection, I got to try Charriol Royal Gold. The good Bofifa spoke of it and sparked my curiosity. Three sprays are enough to appreciate it. On first application, it’s strong, intrusive, sweet, aromatically overloaded, and intense: a gourmand-oriental hammer striking without mercy. The top and heart notes create a dense, opulent scent. Over time, an elegant touch emerges with a delicious trail. I recommend it to lovers of sweet aromas. The Charriol house offers fragrances at a good price with excellent performance.

  Snagged this used in ML (Chile) purely for the bottle and took a blind leap of faith; if I’d hated it, I’d have given it to my wife, but it absolutely blew my mind! It’s exquisite and utterly unique. I don’t own any niche perfumes and I’m not familiar with Tom Ford, though the closest comparison is Mancera Red Tobacco, yet it reminds me of my CDNI for women. It shares notes with this delicious Charriol Gold. I reckon it’s one of the few that smells like niche at designer prices (think Bentley Intense, Encre Noir, Zino, CDNI, Gres Etat de Grace). Not something to buy blindly, but as it’s by M. Almairac, I decided to go for it. The trail and longevity are well above average. Perfect for those over 35 with a bit of personality. Totally unisex and timeless: autumn/winter, but also cool spring/summer evenings. If you’re hunting for a Black Orchid clone, I’d recommend Smoky Spice by Parfum AE, a new Arab brand. Greetings from Chile.
