Orientica Ishraq Gold is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. Ishraq Gold opens with Coffee and Almond, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Orris, 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 vanilla-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.

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.
