Parfums de Marly Godolphin Eau de Parfum 125ml

Parfums de Marly Godolphin — Named for the Greatest Thoroughbred of the 18th Century

Launched in 2010 and created by perfumer Michèle Saramito, Godolphin by Parfums de Marly is a bold, sophisticated, and deeply refined Leather fragrance for men — named for the legendary Godolphin Arabian, one of the three founding sires of the modern thoroughbred racehorse, and one of the most celebrated and most storied horses in history. A fragrance of power, elegance, and quiet, commanding authority — as magnificent and as enduring as the horse that inspired it.

The fragrance opens with a vivid, multi-faceted accord of lush fruity notes, precious saffron — warm, leathery, and honeyed — aromatic maté — the South American herbal infusion of distinctive green, slightly smoky, and deeply aromatic character — herbal thyme, resinous cypress, and fresh green notes, creating an opening of extraordinary complexity: fruity and herbal, spiced and green, warm and fresh, all at once. The heart deepens with a classic, beautifully balanced floral core of velvety rose, precious orris (iris) — one of the most expensive raw materials in all of perfumery, with its distinctive violet-like, powdery elegance — and heady jasmine, creating a heart of refined, quietly masculine floral sophistication that gives Godolphin its most distinctive and most elegant character. The dry-down reveals the composition’s most commanding, most enduring character: smooth, supple leather, golden amber, smoky vetiver, soft musk, dry Virginia cedar — the clean, pencil-shaving cedar of the American South, lighter and more transparent than Atlas cedar — and creamy vanilla, creating a base of extraordinary warmth, depth, and the kind of effortless, skin-fused longevity worthy of the legend it honours.
