Maharjan Gold

“If you are buying cheap "clones" you need to let them sit. When it arrives spray it 15-20 times and put it away for a few weeks. Come back and try it again. You may need to spray it and put it away again. But it should smell stronger that the 1st time you sprayed it.That's why you buy your summer fragrance in the winter and winter ones in the summer. Spray it, get it activated and let it grow.Mine is really nice and the carmel is the star. No pine. No car freshener or cleaner smell here.”

“The opening smells kind of like pine. Then it fades and becomes a green, fresh, sweet and oriental fragrance. I tried Al Quiam Silver just before this Maharjan Gold and both smell similar on the dry down. But Al Quiam Silver has a stronger citrus note. I find Maharjan Gold better than Maharjan Silver.”

“I got this yesterday, sprayed a couple of times, checked all the comments below, but I don't smell any pine tbh. I smell an incense, black pepper and lavender mixture. With the dry down there is caramel & little amber. Last a good 5 maybe 6 hours on my skin.Normally I dislike anything with lavender, but this is an interesting mixture to me. Never smelled anything like it.My partner thinks it's a complicated smell, not necessarily very feminine, but more feminine with the dry down.Oh well, I think I can pull it off though hahaha. And he can probably pull it off as well.”
