Raw Gold by Thomas De Monaco at Indigo Perfumery

Thomas de Monaco described his first fragrance project as a memory of his adolescence, a way of taking the two dimensionality of photography to a new, three-dimensional level.

A fascinatingly rich texture of visual and olfactory memories characterizes Raw Gold.

Raw Gold is a modern unisex fragrance which calls the spirit of the late 60s and early 70s to mind. A time when innocence and guilt were in the balance, when lust and love won the day.

Unpolished, like Raw Gold.

Dominant in character, incredibly sensual and seductive in overall perception.

Raw Gold opens with swirls of plum liqueur, coffee, smoky vetiver and black pepper. Its heart reveals texture with warm notes of polished leather and velour with a dash of lipstick. The base takes us on a journey through a range of balsamic notes – tonka beans adding a masculine touch, civet and patchouli providing a blast of animalistic heat, saffron playing on raw leather notes and exotic opoponax offering a hint of dark honey.
