Midnight Gold

Midnight Gold by Mancera is a refined, unisex scent that balances fresh citrus, aromatic spices, and a subtle but elegant oud base. It opens with vibrant citrus notes—mandarin orange, lime, and neroli—highlighted by cardamom and rosemary, creating a crisp yet aromatic introduction. As it develops, the fragrance evolves into a woody, mossy, and slightly soapy chypre-like base, anchored by agarwood (oud) and oak moss, which lend it a dark, sophisticated depth without overpowering. The overall impression is light, fresh, and airy, with a fading musky softness in the dry-down that feels both clean and mature. Performance is moderate: it lasts about 6–8 hours on skin and is most noticeable in warm environments, though sillage remains modest. The name 'Midnight Gold' is misleading—while the scent has a regal, golden character, it leans more toward daytime and summer wear, with a subtle sweetness and green freshness that feels like sunlight on a tropical beach at dusk. It’s unisex in appeal but may read as feminine to some due to its soft floral and soapy facets.
