About This Perfume
Think sweet vanilla cream with warm cardamom: that is Arabian Oud Madawi Gold Edition. It opens with cardamom, moves into tonka bean, pineapple blossom and jasmine and settles on vanilla and patchouli. It reads unisex.
This eau de parfum works across all four seasons and is an evening scent. It suits date nights and nights out. Released in 2024.
In the community's experience it lasts through a full day, and projects strongly and fills a room. Wearers suggest letting a new bottle rest for a couple of weeks; it tends to smooth out.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something gourmand and sweet for date nights.
- Sample first if: you prefer quiet scents; it projects.
- Skip if: you dislike fruity fragrances.
Around $300.

Smelling the picks
For Sultani (Eau de Parfum, 2020), think bright berry citrus with minty floral freshness, opening on pink pepper and berries and drying down to white musk, patchouli and ambergris. Resala (Parfum, 2018) smells like warm chocolate cake with rose perfume; saffron up top and chocolate and oud underneath. Think berry compote simmered with anise and amber with Kalemat (Eau de Parfum), with blueberry and aniseed first and amber, sweetleaf and musk at the base.
