The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2025, Golden Saffron by Bortnikoff is a bold aromatic-spicy fragrance that embodies the brand's commitment to using rare and unusual materials. Perfumers Chris Maurice and Dmitry Bortnikoff craft an intriguing composition with saffron at its core, complemented by bright citrus notes like bergamot and lemon. The heart melds green geranium and mint with aromatic lavender, creating a fresh yet warm profile. As it settles, the fragrance reveals tobacco, white floral notes of lily of the valley and jasmine, along with vanilla and amber, providing a rich and complex finish.
Golden Saffron has a strong presence from its saffron note but also features fleeting top notes like bergamot. Apply it liberally to ensure that the full complexity is evident throughout the day. This fragrance blooms best close to the skin, so layering with a light mist over your usual skincare routine can enhance its warmth and depth.
