(100 ml Extrait de Parfum)
Argos Midas Touch Extrait de Parfum is a radiant and opulent creation that captures the allure, desire, and danger behind the legendary gift of King Midas. This extrait concentration offers a richer, smoother, and more golden interpretation of the story, with vibrant citrus notes, lush florals, warm resins, and precious woods that create a profoundly luxurious and unforgettable fragrance experience. Inspired by the works of Johann Georg Platzer, a Rococo master known for his dramatic lighting and lavish depictions of mythological tales, Midas Touch embodies the tension between beauty and consequence. Platzer often depicted scenes rich in gold, decadence, and theatrical emotion, reflecting the myth of a king whose desires led to his downfall. In the legend, King Midas yearns for the power to turn everything he touches into gold. His wish is granted, but as his world transforms into glittering treasures, it robs everything he loves of its life. Food turns to inedible metal, water becomes hard and cold, and his daughter transforms into a statue in his arms. This fragrance captures both the dazzling beauty and the oppressive weight of this myth—with notes that shimmer on the skin, gaining depth and unfolding. The scent opens with a radiant blend of bergamot, gurjum balsam, and creamy tuberose, shining like light striking polished gold. The heart unfolds with lush rose, fruity-floral osmanthus, resinous cistus labdanum, and supple leather, evoking opulence and decadence. The base unfolds into a powerful foundation of patchouli, earthy nagarmota, golden Siamese benzoin, and precious resin, creating a pampering and unforgettable finish.
