Riiffs, Momento Liquid Gold, Extrait de Parfum, Unisex, 100 ml

Description

Some perfumes announce themselves before you walk into the room, and others only reveal themselves when someone comes close. This one does both: it shines at first and then melts into a warmth of caramel.

Momento Liquid Gold by Riiffs is a unisex extrait de parfum, a sweet oriental built around saffron, Damask rose and oud.

First impression: saffron and candied tangerine

The opening has the colour of its name. Saffron brings a warm, slightly leathery note that is easy to recognise in Arabic perfumery. Tangerine lights it up, and sugar sweetens it, like a glazed citrus peel.

The character: Damask rose and oud

In the heart, Damask rose settles over oud, the classic pairing of the Orient: velvety floral notes on dark, slightly smoky wood. Tonka beans smooth everything out and lead into the sweet base. This is the most elegant part of the perfume, the one that gives it weight.

What stays: caramel and wood

The finish is a gourmand, woody trace. Caramel gives the sweetness, amber wood makes it warm and long-lasting, and cedar keeps it dry so it never becomes too sweet. As an extrait, it is more concentrated than a standard eau de parfum.

When to wear it

Momento Liquid Gold is an oriental unisex perfume for cold evenings, for events and for any occasion when you want to be remembered. It suits people who love rose with oud but prefer a sweeter, caramel version. Autumn and winter show it off best.

Riiffs is a perfume house from the United Arab Emirates. Momento Liquid Gold comes as an extrait de parfum in a 100 ml bottle.
