The Story

Godolphin by Parfums de Marly, created by Michèle Saramito and launched in 2010, is an aromatic-leather fragrance with a rich blend of notes that evoke sophistication and warmth. The composition opens with fresh fruity and green notes before transitioning into the heart where thyme, rose, orris, jasmine, and mate intertwine to create a complex yet harmonious middle layer. The base notes feature leather, amber, cedar, vetiver, musk, and vanilla, providing an earthy and enveloping finish that is both animalic and powdery.

Application Tips

Apply one generous spray to your pulse points. The fruity and aromatic top notes will fade within an hour, but the warm spicy and powdery base notes will linger for hours, making this fragrance ideal for evening wear.

The story behind the bottle.

The quiet confidence of a well-worn leather-bound book, where crisp green notes meet the rich earthiness of leather and the subtle sweetness of vanilla.
