Giordani Gold Oriflame for women

Very similar to my grandmother's old parfume. I like GG EDP very much but afraid of I'm not old enough to use it (only 23 years old).

In my opinion is the best perfume by Oriflame. I really like it and it's long last on me, like 5-6 hours, and days if you spray on clothes.

I am gobsmacked by the number of negative reviews here.
Giordani Gold strikes me as one of the most fantastic and classy juices out there.
I even dare to say it strongly reminds me of Faubourg 24!
Gold is an elegant fragrance for a smart professional such as chief executive or a senior officer.
It can also be worn for special occasions such as a banquet at an exclusive restaurant.
It possess the most wonderful combo of florals with a hint of a chypre undertone which boasts with feminity.
It is a mature fragrance, so to speak. And although I am a fruity lover - Giordani Gold made my heart melt and got my nose scream for more!
It lasts quite a while (approx 6-7 hours) and has a noticeable silage.
A definite keeper!

Preciously... CHEAP.. Like men's aftershave modified for refined female noses... Oriflame too often can't mix well the ingredients, leaving the wearer 'naked' with the cheapest base alone..

I really wonder why this perfume took so many 'dislikes'. It's not at all bad, at least to me. I bought it from a student of mine unsniffed and I wasn't disappointed at all. It has something that makes it very fresh, could it be the mandarine note?
But it is fresh-floral and not fruity at all.
It has a very good lasting power on me and truth is that it smells like an expensive perfume. It is a well blended perfume, one of the fresh scents that won't cause nausia or a headache even if you spray a little bit more.
The only partialy negative is that- as other person has already stated- it is a perfume for special occasions. It can be worn at a night out (to a club, a restaurant, theatre, coffee etc etc), to a wedding but it would be somewhat exaggerated for a casual morning appearance, I think. But then, everyone has at least one casual perfume, why not a non casual one too.
It's too elegant and...sparkling.
I can't see how I am going to finish the bottle though, as I very rarely (never) go out at night.
Very nice perfume though, it makes me feel nice.

i think it's a sad perfume put i like it

for me it's aroma just like foundation or a night cream haahaa..

Your man will love your smell if you use this. Its a bit strong,opens with a floral smell. The dry down is warm and woody, and then a powdery feminine, sophisticated smell. Spray only twice otherwise, it quite over powering. Lasts all day long. Recommended for special occasions - not a day use.

really bad perfum :D MY nose hurts me :)

Giordani Gold is very pretty. This is the first Oriflame scent I have had a chance to try.

i like the smell of this perfume very much and can say that this perfume has become one of my fav but it never lasts long on your skin

this is very bland for me i don't know everytime i use it something is there but i can't quite decipher it and i'm very much confused with this one i haven't found it suits me so far.

Wow, it's just too much for me! Too sweet and oldish, too loud!!! It's like a kick in one's nose.. It does last a lot...

Good memories this perfume brings me.

A high school ex colleague asked what smelled so good and this was really puzzling for me because nobody asked what smelled so good when I was wearing expensive french or italian perfumes.

Indeed this perfume smells good and I think this is more of a fragrance for the office.

I like it and I am surprised because I am not really fond of Oriflame.

Strongest note is jasmine (at least on my skin).

It is elegant, it lasts and it's not very expensive. :)

Giordani Gold is very pretty. This is the first Oriflame scent I have had a chance to try. So sad to see that this line is not marketed in the United States, though I have seen some bottles of this one on ebay.

I thought at first that it smelled like Hermes Amazone or Amazone Light. I did a side-by-side comparison, and if you could strip away the bitter greens from Amazone, yes, there is some similarity in the dry-down. Giordani Gold is a pretty floral chypre with an old school vibe. As others have noted, it does not last long on the skin. Looks like it is quite affordable if it is available in your country, though, so reapplying as often as needed won't cause any guilt.

i like the smell of this perfume very much and can say that this perfume has become one of my fav but it never lasts long on your skin.

This smells like a dead ringer to
Lanvin's Rumeur with it's strong note
of Tuberoses unlike Rumeur it's a bit more softer thanks to due to the white
florals so it does'nt get to overwhelming it dries down to an deep
musky scent of Jasmine and crisp green
cypress. I whould classify this as an
Cypre Floral it's Little more Woodish
to be an floral.

This is an sparkling fragrance And it's also a sexy bottle and color but it
can be an overwhelming but the white
gold is alot softer to the senses.

...not to worry little offcast, I like you enough to enjoy your smell. :))

...A lot of people slam this little perfume. But it brings me nice memmories, my mom used to wear this, and it seemed charming on her.

it was the 1st perfume i get from Oriflame that was about 5 yers ago, i still have it , its so classy in some ways , not aday use perfume, its aperfume for special occasions .. bet strong but not bad at all, its not my favorite between Oriflame collection , but i like it , may be in a classy wedding r a special formal dinner , in short its SOPHISTICATED PERFUME ,

I can't take a stand on this one: several times I thought it smelled cheap and overpowering, but at other times the scent was quite comforting, flowery and warm. Still, i think i wasn't too crazy about it when i had it. The bottle was standing in my trumeau for several years and i touched it only occasionally. Funny, couple of my male friends commented on this perfume saying the scent was beautiful))

a friend has it, and I like it very much on a woman

It's just sooo awful and dissapointing!. The Giordani White is much much better.

I got it from a gift and I didn´t like. I think this perfume is very strong for me. I agree with "mags" It´s for older ladies and Giordani white gold is better, because It´s softer ;)...

I sprayed it on my wrist and I can't stand it.It's intoxicating.I would classify it as a floral-chypre,a softer one,though,not like Coco Mademoiselle for example.
I don't find it classy,rich or luxurious,though it claims to be so.
Wouldn't advise buying it.

I used to wear this a few years ago. now i can't stand it. it smells like a cheap hair spray. it has nothing special whatsoever.

dnelson21 if your looking to buy giordani gold without a third party i have plenty if you want to get in contact with me.

i hate this perfume,it's for older ladies.it smells awful..i like the giordani white gold better-this one is great.

i think this perfume is really good and it is not for old ladies, no way.....

Oh, I don't think it's a bad scent, but it's very classy, not for the youth, but for at least middleaged women. I would say it's a floral-chypre and smells really aged.

yep, i truly agree with likaanitia :-)

it's really bad smell, nothing special, i got it from gift of my friend and the other friends said that my perfume was really anoyying when i wore giordani, aaaaaaaargh it's bad!
