    I love this!!! A soft sweet woodiness is what I get here, perhaps a touch of amber..classy and comforting. While this is not a powerhouse, it is yet probably not for the meek or the wallflower. Great for a confident woman, or a woman who wants to not only feel confident, but beautiful and relaxed..has a slight comforting relaxed vibe for me and at times I pick up a very slight smokiness. I can’t really pick up any of the notes listed here..I just get a soft sweet woodiness, a comforting and relaxing scent. Oh how I can’t wait for the cooler months especially to wear this one!!! ❤️❤️

    From a guy who washes his hands a lot working in a kitchen, this towards 30 min drying time, smells a lot like soap.
    Dissapointed

    The rediscovery of the interest in the Middle East perfumery, drawn mainly by the fascination with oud, led to a commercial double way between different universes. Not only did Western traditional labels focus on Arab audiences with compositions centered on the classic notes of this audience’s universe (Rose, Saffron, Oud, Amber, etc.) as Arabic labels such as Widian AJ Arabia focused on Western audiences by offering the reverse route : a perfumery that interprets the codes of western perfumery with the wealth, luxury and opulence that has been associated with the Arab perfumery.
    A closer look reveals Widian’s concern to sell luxury with Arabian airs to Western audiences. The bottles have exotic colors, but are simpler and more sober than the classic Arab brands. Perfumes offer parfum concentration, which has reborn given its excellent marketing as a luxe concentration with excellent performance. The Gold line goes one step further by celebrating the metal that is most associated with luxe, Gold. However Gold II makes a major mistake when it comes to selling luxury: subtlety.
    There is a fine line between creating a rich and potent yet refined fragrance, and one that in its intentions of being rich, potent, and luxurious has a coarse appearance in its aroma. Gold II suffers just from this crudeness, which seems like a lack of budget to work better on the formula and that is not coherent with the price range charged. There is an amber floral aspect in the output of Gold II which besides clearly reminding Acqua di Parma Oud sounds like a cheaper version of it.
    Only after the initial powerful aroma has passed that you appreciate the harmony of the perfume, which is more delicate than you would expect. Saffron reveals its spicy facet and its touch of leather while there is a spicy citrus aspect that reminisces to ginger. The floral accord is very subtle and conduct the scent to a skin-like aura of wood, amber and a discreet touch of oud. If Widian Gold II were a jewel, its intentions would be to sell an aroma equivalent to 24k gold, but a more detailed analysis quickly shows that we have at most some less noble metal bathed in a thin layer of gold that quickly peels.

    Oh my! It’s my favorite from 6 samples of Widian I tried so far.
    At the first look at notes pyramid you would think it would be just another typical arabian scent. I even almost passed on ordering sample of it for that reason … but when you actually try it, you would say they took it to whole new level! I would say with this gem Widian outamouaged Amouage!
    Despite of its unmistakably Middle Eastern pedigree, it also would be appearing even for those Western noses that aren’t too crazy about oriental scents. And if you like arabian scents, this one will send you dancing and singing – and for long time, because it lasts 16+ hours on skin. Projection and sillage is enormous first 3 hours, still strong for another 3 hours, and I would say another 4-5 hours moderate.
    To reviewer before me, who told he can’t detect any cedar in it – you probably washed it off too quickly, it becomes evident after 6 hours, and very prominent, if not dominant after 8.
    Could be easily used by both genders. Although it’s more of the night and cold weather type, I see it used at Spring and daytime too, and even for Summer nights. Def not the office scent …unless you’re in business of seduction.
    Blind buy safe and full bottle worthy for anyone who doesn’t hate arabian type of scents.

    A glorious blend of saffron, Amber, and vanilla. Totally unisex and simply a fantastic scent. AJ Arabia is quality all the way. Longevity on this stuff is 12+ hours.

    Gold II opens with a honey-sweet resinous blast of elemi and orange peel, and immediately the vanilla/amber/musk base is felt. After 30 minutes the scent becomes more powdery and a little less loud and sweet thus allowing the orange blossom, rose and saffron to develop. I am not getting too much presence of cedarwood on my skin so to me Gold II worked best when layered with a gentle sandalwood or oud oil. Longevity is very good (8 hours from 3 sprays), projection is medium to strong (the scent mellows somewhat after 2-3 hours) and the sillage is intriguing and mysterious. All in all it seems that the Widian juices are heading in the right direction in terms of blending and scent development and after its intense opening there is nothing cloying about the scent. Very solid. €245 for 50ml extrait.
