Orientica Ishraq Gold is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. Ishraq Gold opens with Coffee and Almond, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Iris, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Cacao Pod, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. Orientica's Ishraq Gold carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

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.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

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

Best 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.

About

Imagine a rich, sweet opening of almond and coffee, like a decadent dessert. This quickly morphs into a creamy vanilla-forward heart, softened by powdery orris and the heady sweetness of jasmine and tuberose. The base lingers with a smooth blend of milky sandalwood, indulgent tonka bean, and the ever-so-slightly bitter touch of cacao, creating a warm, cozy gourmand experience.
