The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2024, Madawi Gold Edition by Arabian Oud is crafted by Dominique Ropion and embodies the brand's legacy of luxury scents featuring rich, warm accords. The fragrance opens with fruity notes and cardamom, creating a vibrant, uplifting aroma that transitions into a heart of jasmine and pineapple blossom. This floral sweetness is balanced by tonka bean and vanilla, adding depth and warmth to the composition. Patchouli and amber ground the scent, providing an earthy, sensual base that lingers on the skin.
This fragrance blooms best when applied to pulse points. It has a strong initial sillage but settles into a more intimate warmth after about 30 minutes. For longer-lasting wear, layer it over a matching body lotion or use a touch of the perfume oil for added longevity.
