The foundation of unadulterated gold was encrusted with veneer, jewels and a twofold peacock’s tail set with rubies, emeralds, pearls and precious stones. At its heart lay the Kohinoor jewel, the biggest known precious stone on the planet. The fragrance opens with iridescent Indian jasmine, Egyptian orris and pink pepper pearls. At its heart lies the rose of Taif, perhaps the most established city in Arabia, its ruby shine, full and extreme. At the base, rich warmth gets through the regal patchouli, shimmering vetiver and polished vanilla. Magnificent — official statement of the brand.
