7.6

Goldmusk · 2024

Sweet · Gourmand · Spicy

Goldmusk Desert Night is a sweet, spicy and gourmand men's fragrance led by cinnamon, cognac and vanilla. Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, though only a few votes back this, so the figures are tentative. It is classed as a men's perfume. There are no season or occasion votes, so nothing can be said about those. Its profile is close to Le Chameau Arabia Malaak and Emir Fire Your Desire. It opens with cinnamon and cognac, a warm, spicy start with a boozy edge. In the heart, vanilla, cinnamon and hazelnut deepen the sweetness. At the base, tonka bean, sandalwood and oak wood settle it into a woody, powdery and creamy finish.
