Outstanding honey / baklava scent
Zaharoff Signature Aurum is the second-to-most recent release of the house, a captivating honey-rich scent that captures the baklava dish with lots of nuance, including notes of honeycomb, cinnamon, mixed nuts, vanilla, and tonka. It’s sweet and rich while not being overly sweet, with a vaguely floral brightness that makes it feel more honeyed that perhaps a baked good, at least to me, and a lot more wearable for those that find gourmands challenging or overbearing. This is a great answer for those, and takes for the form of a unisex fragrance that has great density without being at all overdone in any one aspect, its balance demonstrating the care and patience that went into it. I guess it’s the first gourmand of the Signature line, but I hope it’s not the last, as it’s yet another outstanding expansion of the line into new territory, a further challenge met and exceeded against. I really love this creation, definitely among my favorite honey scents with Zoologist Bee and Hiram Green Slowdive, albeit not as syrupy as Bee and not as spicy as Slowdive, nor as floral as either, fitting for a gourmand. To my nose, it does not evolve a ton, a little sharper at first spray and a little smoother and creamier in the dry down, but that’s to be expected, frankly.
The line’s pricing remains very reasonable for a high-quality, high-performance product, especially at the greater size, at $195/155 for 120/60ml, sold through the house website exclusively in the US, I believe.
