Explore Ralegh Gold fragrance

Air & Weather beautifully evokes a sense of place with each of its fragrances. And the brand’s latest creation Ralegh Gold raises the intriguing question: what places are left to be explored? It is a sumptuous amber blend inspired by a visit to Barclay Rex a tobacconist shop on Pearl Street in Manhattan. The aromatic and rich golden scents of the shop’s rarepipe tobaccos prompted perfumer J. Crowe to create Ralegh Gold because these fragrant notes reminded her of a treasured family story. The perfume starts out with a lush Ajwa date top note and then opens up into its warm middle notes. There’s a medley of Honeyed English Walnuts, Turkish Chestnuts, and Golden Virginia Tobacco that conjures up a late evening and a sumptuous leather wing chair in a tony wood-paneled room. It’s a scent that references old and new worlds. The name Ralegh is a nod to Sir Walter Ralegh (Raleigh) an English poet, explorer, and favorite of Queen Elizabeth the first. Ralegh led South American expeditions in 1595 and 1617 to search for the golden city of El Dorado, which Crowe pondered as she blended. Ralegh Gold is a modern yet cozy scent full of contradictions and perfect for the heart of winter. Embark on this fragrance journey worthy of the boldest explorers.
