Goldea The Roman Night Absolute
by Bvlgari
Goldea The Roman Night Absolute presents a softly intoxicating journey that begins with a luminous burst of plum and orange blossom, offering a velvety, fruited sweetness akin to ripe plums and celestial jasmine. As it settles, the fragrance deepens with a radiant billow of vanilla, a honeyed gourmand warmth that grounds the composition. The heart reveals a subtle, seductive chypre core centered on earthy patchouli and moss, accented by a delicate musk that lends depth and sensuality. While the initial development is bright and inviting, it soon fades into a quietly persistent dry down, where the plummy-sweet core lingers beneath the earthiness. It's an elegant, mature fragrance that feels intentional and refined, especially suited for cooler months and evening wear, with a quiet presence that unfolds over time. It balances sweetness with quiet sophistication, making it less a bold statement and more a personal signature for those who appreciate subtlety and depth.
