{"product_id":"naseem-golden-woods-sample","title":"Naseem Golden Woods Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eNaseem Golden Woods is a Parfum with a warm, spiced pyramid: cinnamon, apple, nutmeg and cognac at the top, plum, dry wood and date in the heart, vanilla, benzoin and musk at the base. FragranceGems describes it as warm, spicy and sweet. Dark, ripe perfumes like this are easy to misjudge on paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Cinnamon, Apple, Nutmeg, Cognac\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Plum, Dry Wood, Date\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Vanilla, Benzoin, Musk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpice, apple and cognac\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFour notes crowd the top: cinnamon, apple, nutmeg and cognac. It is a warm, spiced start, with the apple giving a thread of fruit through the spices. Notice how much cognac you pick up, since its boozy depth either adds richness for you or tips the opening towards heavy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlum, dry wood, date\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the heart, plum, dry wood and date give a ripe, woody core, as FragranceGems puts it. Date and plum are both dark and sticky-sweet, while dry wood adds a firmer, drier note. This middle stage tells you whether the fruit or the wood leads on your skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVanilla, benzoin, musk\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eVanilla, benzoin and musk finish the Parfum softly and sweetly. Benzoin adds a balsamic warmth, and the musk draws everything close to the skin. After the crowded start the base is simple and calm, so give the perfume time to reach it before you make up your mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWear it on a cold evening, on clean skin, and let it settle for a while before judging. Smell your wrist at the start, again at the table and later at home. A second test on a milder day shows whether the cinnamon and cognac stay comfortable when it is warmer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who enjoys warm, spicy-sweet perfumes with fruit and wood, worn in the evenings of autumn and winter or on special occasions. It is filed as unisex with moderate strength. If you generally pick light, fresh scents, the sample shows quickly whether this much warmth is for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Naseem Golden Woods as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith ten named notes, cinnamon and cognac up front and dates in the middle, this is a perfume whose effect on skin you cannot guess. FragranceGems fills the vial from its original bottle and the label is ours, so it is not an official brand sample, and Naseem itself is not behind this sample.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs Golden Woods sweet?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFragranceGems calls it warm, spicy and sweet.
