Shalimar: the history of the first amber fragrance

White Gold joined the Ormonde Jayne portfolio in 2017. A feminine fragrance rooted in the east and floral families. Perfumer Linda Pilkington poured every ounce of mastery into this one. Part of the Gold Trilogy collection, available as perfume extract.
It carries a noticeable sillage, leaving a trail that lingers pleasantly in the air. The longevity is genuinely phenomenal: firmly in the very high range. Brand country — the United Kingdom. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent is clearly present near you, but it does not fill the entire space
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The note pyramid of White Gold evolves as an expressive line of development, where accents shift smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of Ormonde Jayne is clear in the way notes appear and fade. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail.
The internal accord map is built around these accords: Balsamic, Aromatic, Citrus and Gourmet with each one in a clear role. Secondary accord layers such as Floral, Musc, Wood and Powdery expand the olfactory volume in the background. The gender direction is feminine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived. In longevity terms Very high suggests confident staying power.
In the first seconds you sense sparkling citrus opening notes: Bergamot, Clary Sage, Green Chord and Mandarin.
When the opening settles you sense Clove, Freesia, Iris, Jasmine and Orchid carrying a velvety rose-iris direction.
At the note-group layer the profile is anchored in Citrus, Aromatic, Green and Spicy. The framework further includes Floral, Whiteflower, Ambery and Musk.
Taken together White Gold reads as a cohesive composition — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, while the drydown anchors the memory.
