Launched in 2017, Woman in Gold by Kilian opens sparkling and soapy-clean, with bergamot, aldehydes and mandarin orange as top notes. The heart notes are freesia, rose, geranium and marshmallow, with vanilla adding sweetness; geranium gives that centre a green edge. Vanilla returns in the base, joined by akigalawood, tonka bean, patchouli and musk, for a finish that is warm and a little woody. It is a floral for women who need one scent for the desk and for dinner. Voters mostly keep it for autumn evenings, and it sits comfortably through a working day as well. The longevity vote leans long-lasting, and the sillage vote leans moderate, so it stays close instead of loud. Wear it for a few evenings, perhaps from a 3ml decant, and see where it belongs in your rotation.

The community verdict
Soft and polished, Woman in Gold starts with bergamot and aldehydes before rose and vanilla come through. Longevity divides between long-lasting and moderate; moderate projection leads, with strong next. It suits autumn evenings, with winter working too, if you like a sweet, feminine style.
