Shaheen Gold

Pineapple and grapefruit open it, lavender and fig sit underneath, and it dries down to tonka, vanilla and patchouli.

Not the heavy amber the gold bottle suggests. The opening is sharp and fruity, pineapple with grapefruit behind it, and lavender turns up almost immediately to pull it toward something aromatic rather than sweet. Fig in the heart adds a milky, green softness. The base is tonka and vanilla over patchouli, warm without being sugary, and it sits close after the first couple of hours. Better in spring and fall than in deep winter.
