"The most important aspect of creating the perfume was searching for the most absolute 'absolue' oils. Finding a quality of sandalwood 20 classes better than other sandalwoods, and that voyage was the lengthiest but the most enjoyable aspect in the creation of Black Gold. Each ingredient was extensively researched and the final perfume was a labour of love."—Linda Pilkington, Founder and Creator of Ormonde Jayne
