M. MICALLEF YLANG IN GOLD EDITION SPECIALE REVIEWS
Fragrantica: "I've never smelled the original Ylang in Gold but I have this version and it's super creamy, vanilla, sweet, and features the ylang ylang floral note. Ylang Ylang Nosy Be is not a beachy, coconut scent while this does have that vibe but it's not exactly in the category of Alien Goddess Intense or Bora Bora. This doesn't exactly scream beach to me. You could be riding the subway in NYC and wear this one and still be metro. It's a sophisticated take on this DNA which I like since the majority of my tropical floral+coconut frags are designer. Longevity and projection are +++. If you like these notes, you will like this perfume. No surprises here."
Fragrantica: "I know a lot of people find this version exactly like the original but I’d have to disagree. This version is much better IMO. I find this to be creamier with more coconut & vanilla. I love this and found it to be my signature scent for the summer! I found the original to have more of a vintage vibe and It wasn’t meshing with me well. I also thought there was too much going on in the composition. This is much more modern, especially in the dry down. An intoxicating concoction of Ylang-Ylang, Coconut, Vanilla, and Sandalwood, a true classic!"
Fragrantica: "Upon first sniff, I'm not sure I quite liked this scent. However, as it dried down I couldn't stop smelling my wrist. It turned into the most intoxicating scent. I wore it again across a few days and I can now confidently express how much I adore this addictive, joyful, comforting scent. I get a hint of banana which I absolutely love. It's comforting, unique, and divinely good!"
Fragrantica: "This is a beautiful creamy coconut mixed with banana and vanilla. Very sunny, comforting and elegant fragrance. My wedding day fragrance for a reason."
Fragrantica: "What a beautiful scent. Only slightly sunscreeny, with a heavy dose of vanilla and creaminess, making it very cozy."
Fragrantica: "After years of hearing about how gorgeous M Micallef perfumes are, I finally got my hands on probably the most loved and hyped of all Micallef’s Ylang in Gold. I have to admit, the hype is real, it’s gorgeous! Breathtakingly beautiful actually…If you’re looking for a sweet, warm, creamy, beachy, tropical floral, smooth, ultra feminine summer time fragrance Ylang in Gold is your best bet. It’s so beautiful, elegant, luxurious, addictive smelling and delicious. The type of scent that transports me on a tropical island. Rich coconut, banana-esque, solar ylang ylang, smooth sandalwood, some hints of bright citrus and lots of sweet, custard like vanilla. Enticing and alluring. I don’t know how it compares with the original Ylang in Gold because I have only smelled that one once, three summers ago during a trip in Rome, so I can’t remember how that one smells to give it a fair comparison. I do remember it was instant love. And I adore the Special Edition!"
Fragrantica: "The opening is very feminine and powdery with a very elegant vintagy vibe. Then as it settles i get the most etheral tropical ylang blended with white flowers, and after heating for some time on the skin it gets even more creamy and buttery with coconut and vanilla accords. It's simply a love at first snif for me, it makes me feel like an excotic fairy! So elegant, so creamy, so ethereal."
