Inspired by the dashing, golden-armored chevalier in Gustav Klimt's 1902 Beethoven Frieze, By Kilianβs Gold Knight flows with a similar golden opulence. The dark sensuousness of patchouli is draped in deep, golden honey, as Kilian Hennessy is wont to do. But despite the gourmand connotations, a fresh anisic bite adds an invigorating masculine edge for the Gold Knight - most distinctively paired with a bright, dry bergamot in the opening. As the scent grows darker, the honeyed patchouli shimmers with cinnamon, vanilla, and anise into a warm, sexy powerhouse.Β A magnificent collector's edition coffret, beautifully embellished in homage to artist Gustav Klimt's unique signature style and masterful use of gold leaf. Once opened, the mirrored zamac lid inside reflects the luminosity, mysterious glamour, and jewel-like quality of each bottle.
