The review

Worth a try. That is where Gold Fluid lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Gentle Fluidity Gold.

The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Gentle Fluidity Gold's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $176 per 100ml it costs 55% less than Gentle Fluidity Gold — the 8th cheapest of 8 twins we can price.
