What does Golden Milk smell like?

Saffron, milk and caramel lead the top; in the heart, condensed milk lays a creamy base while orris butter and Indian cypriol pull it towards something powdery and smoky. The base settles on oud, leather, tonka bean and vanilla, so the whole reads sweet, woody and faintly leathery.

Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong, and most voters find it lasts a long time. With its dense, full character it suits anyone who wants a scent that makes itself noticed, or a unisex sweet-oriental. Lattafa Maahir and French Avenue El Dorado have a close profile.
