Naughton & Wilson Old Money, Sample
Step into quiet confidence and self-assuredness with Old Money by Naughton and Wilson. This composition conjures the atmosphere of a private gentlemen's club with leather armchairs and imposing classical artwork on the walls. At the outset, the scent opens with a bright yet sophisticated blend of bergamot and bitter orange, their zesty allure enriched by the sharpness of black pepper and the herbal undertones of clary sage and juniper berry. The aldehydes add a crisp, clean facet, while the green bitterness of cypress and galbanum grounds the experience in earthy refinement.
As the fragrance unfolds, its heart reveals a tapestry of rich, warm notes. Tobacco and dried fruits intermingle with the floral elegance of geranium and carnation, enveloped by the smoothness of bourbon and the spiciness of clove. Cedar and cashmere wood lend a creamy, woody depth, while labdanum and iris root introduce a touch of luxurious softness. This stage of the fragrance is both warm and inviting, evoking the aura of a distinguished gentleman at ease in his sophisticated milieu.
In the base, the scent settles into a lasting impression of timeless elegance. Patchouli and vetiver bring forth their earthy, grounding qualities, while oakwood and tonka bean add a sweet, comforting warmth. Amber and musks infuse a subtle sensuality, complemented by the soft, suede-like texture of moss and cedar. This refined, warm, and quietly confident Eau de Parfum encapsulates the essence of a modern gentleman who never needs to boast, offering timeless sophistication bottled.
