Gold Rush is a sweet, gourmand fragrance with a juicy nectarine opening that blends seamlessly into a creamy, powdery vanilla and praline base. The scent opens with bright bergamot, lemon, and nectarine, giving it a fresh, slightly soapy vibe that lingers without feeling harsh. As it dries down, the floral heart of orchid and violet rises subtly, lending sophistication, while the cashmere wood and praline offer a soft, buttery texture. Though performance is modest, lasting around four to six hours depending on application—especially on skin—many users appreciate its lightweight, wearable profile. The fragrance balances sweetness with airiness, avoiding cloying or overly synthetic qualities, and feels refined rather than childlike. It's especially well-suited for spring and fall, and some report better performance in cooler weather or when layered with vanilla body oils. While comparisons to Viktor & Rolf’s Bon Bon are frequent, Gold Rush is lighter, fruitier, and less complex, with a fluer de soir quality that feels approachable and easy to wear.
