Is Aurum suitable for office wear?+−
Because of its heavy sillage and dense oriental-gourmand profile, most users find it too intense for a professional office environment. It is better suited for evening events, leisure, or outdoor occasions where the scent has room to breathe.
How does the oud note behave in this fragrance?+−
The oud in Aurum is more supportive than dominant. It provides a woody, slightly medicinal foundation that balances the chocolate and strawberry notes, preventing the fragrance from becoming a simple fruity-sweet scent.
Can this be worn in the summer heat?+−
Most people find Aurum overwhelming in high temperatures. The combination of Bourbon vanilla, labdanum, and chocolate can become cloying in the heat; it is generally recommended for the cooler temperatures of spring, fall, and winter.
Is this fragrance more masculine or feminine?+−
Aurum is marketed as a unisex fragrance. It balances traditionally feminine elements like rose, strawberry, and heliotrope with traditionally masculine notes of oud, frankincense, and oakmoss, making it a versatile choice regardless of gender.
