British niche line Ormonde Jayne has launched Rose Gold, a new luxury fragrance exclusive to Harrods.
Ormonde Jayne presents Rose Gold, a bracingly assertive rose perfume, more baroque than traditional floriental. Ravishing and sumptuous, Rose gold will stand out in any gathering, transforming you from ordinary to extraordinary. A tenacious scent that will leave an oriental trail of rose, carnation absolute, ambrette absolute, oud and sandalwood behind for whoever you meet. A word of caution: beware of dangerous liaisons.
Additional notes include lime, orange blossom, bergamot, clary sage, jasmine, orchid, water lily, ambrette and shinus molle (pink pepper).
Ormonde Jayne Rose Gold is £345 for 120 ml Extrait.

Cor. Their expensive line always sounds menacing. Like Tsarina, which ‘demands fur, leather, brocade, heavy silks in sweeping dresses and fabulous jewels to go with her haughty heritage’. Even people with that kind of money don’t wear heavy silks in etc etc all that much these days…
I thought you must be making that up, but yep — it really says haughty heritage! Nice.
Hi Mrs D,
Thanks to you for the OJ sampler set I have now just ordered OJ man and Osmanthus in the travel sets. As a special offer for the Queens birthday they are including a bottle of Tsarina, 50ml! for free.
This is more expensive than the 2 I have bought! Bonus.
Wow! God Bless the Queen, as we used to sing in elementary school in Canada. Eventually changed to singing O Canada.
Oh brilliant, glad you liked it! I’m enjoying the Epice Marine and Eau Duelle very much too – thank you. And great about the Tsarina – hope you’re stocking up on fur and brocade!
???????????? Maybe faux fur! Not sure about it, but we’ll see. It may come up on the next swap meet! ????
I’m going to have a sniff when I’m next in Harrods. That price is a big turn-off but I’m hoping that it will eventually turn up in one of the 10ml travel spray tubes as a limited edition offering, as Black Gold did. If you sign up to the site’s newsletter, they announce them there. I think the Four Corners collection is available as a 10ml, which frankly is all I need of a fragrance these days.
Thanks, did not know they did Black Gold in 10 ml.
They don’t have it freely available to buy on their website because that would be too easy! But they did make it available for a week and announced it by email. Also if you ask nicely at their stores they sometimes seem to have it.
I take it that means you tried it? What did you think?
WANT!!!
But the price…
This sounds absolutely amazing! Love jewelry in Rose Gold, love the name for the fragrance, love the bottle. Never had anything from the OJ line, but I know it gets a lot of love here. The notes to this sounds like it will be outstanding!
I ordered the sample set a couple of years ago and I was very underwhelmed! I sold it on ebay shortly after trying them all. At the time they were expensive but not prohibitively so….now they are just OTT. Not worth it for me – too sweet and the only one I sort of liked was OJ Woman but not really my bag – it was ok but there are better in that genre out there. So I’ll pass on this one too:((
