Erba Gold

2016

Erba Pura's airier cousin — less nuclear, more polite, equally Italian.

The take

What works

  • Citrus-vanilla-amber accord — the Erba Pura DNA tuned warmer and richer
  • Strong projection and longevity for a citrus-leaning profile
  • Refined enough to wear in the office, loud enough to fill a room

Trade-offs

  • Largely redundant if you own Erba Pura
  • Sweetness can tip cloying with over-application
