Madawi 40 Years Gold Edition

Black pepper and cardamom bring spice to the opening, while red fruits add a sweet, fruity edge. In the heart, pineapple, jasmine and tonka bean turn floral and creamy; patchouli, amber and vanilla then settle this gourmand, oriental character onto a warm, soft base.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, spring is not far behind, and few choose summer. Night out and evening wear stand out, while office use is rarely chosen. Masculine and feminine votes are close, so it reads as truly in between. Afnan Perfumes Turathi (Purple) and Anfas Ishq have a close profile.
