Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Vanitas Eau de Parfum
This one's a playful, super-sweet vanilla gourmand that has caused absolute chaos in the community. You'll either adore its sugary, cotton candy charm or find it an overwhelmingly artificial mess. Definitely not a safe blind buy, this powerhouse scent demands a test run first.

Our Verdict - Ishraq Gold Eau de Parfum
This one is a divisive little number. Some reckon it's a solid, sweet gourmand with decent staying power, a cut-price dupe for Black Opium or Good Girl. Others find it barely there, a faint echo that vanishes too quickly. Blind buy at your own risk.

Season and Occasion Fit

Vanitas Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

With beast-mode longevity and projection, this bold gourmand is a bit too much for the office. However, its sweet, attention-grabbing character makes it fantastic for dates and casual outings, especially during cooler weather. It's too playful for formal events and far too heavy for sport.

Ishraq Gold Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its sweet and warm gourmand profile makes it unsuitable for formal or sport settings. While some find it long-lasting and seductive, others report poor performance, making it a hit-or-miss for office wear. It truly shines on a date or for casual outings where its creamy sweetness can be appreciated.
