CreamyWhat does Gajah Mada smell like?
It wears with strong longevity and good sillage. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evenings and nights out lead the occasions. It sits between masculine and feminine rather than leaning clearly one way. Rochas Moustache (Eau de Parfum) and Berry Cœur Noir have a close profile.
It opens with damson plum, blood orange and quince, which give a fruity brightness. In the heart, frangipani, date and tolu balm bring a floral, gourmand sweetness. The base of patchouli, sandalwood and benzoin settles it into a woody, resinous and earthy warmth.
