Our verdict on Ishq: Acquired

This one is a real head-turner, divisive but magnetic. Love it or hate it, Ishq commands attention with its potent blend of fruit and spice, often drawing comparisons to BR540 but with its own unique, powdery, fruity punch.

About

Ishq opens with a heady mix of exotic saffron and sweet jasmine, immediately grabbing you. The heart blossoms into a juicy, slightly tangy raspberry, backed by a warm amber glow. As it settles, a soft, inviting talc-like powder emerges, grounding the sweetness with an earthy hint of oakmoss, creating a smooth, rich finish.
