A faithful companion in the cold season!
A fragrance that quite rightly enjoys great popularity. It is more or less a Stronger with You Intensely with a fruity mango component.
A very beguiling and beautiful fragrance that is not too overpowering and enchants everyone around it. A sure-fire magnet for compliments.
The fragrance has a more than moderate durability and performance, it easily lasts 5-6 hours, so that everyone in the immediate vicinity can perceive it.
The price of this perfume is also absolutely reasonable.
It is true that the fragrance has become quite mainstream and has slight parallels to a fragrance that really divides opinion, namely Dior Sauvage. Nevertheless, this does not make the Gisada Ambassador any worse.
It is also a fragrance that you could easily buy as a blind buy, as it is an uncomplicated fragrance suitable for the masses.

The pure penetrance in a bottle!
It's not a bad fragrance, but one that literally overwhelms you with its intensity!
I have already made one or two blind buys and with many of these blind buys I was quite positively surprised. This one, however, turned out to be more or less a bad buy! Well, not too tragic for just under €30. But there was no other way around it, as you can't test any Swiss Arabian fragrances here (small town), as neither our Douglas nor our Müller stock Swiss Arabian fragrances.
I more or less fell for the hype of many well-known fragrance influencers and let myself be "tricked" into buying it. Well, I ordered it, unpacked it when it arrived and tried it immediately. I was blown away by the strength and intensity of this perfume!
The fragrance immediately started off sweet and cardboardy, with a distinctive chocolatey note and then turned into something vanilla/rose and slightly woody. A very pleasant constellation in itself, especially if you like fragrances like Armani Stronger with You Absolutely or Azzaro The Most Wanted Intense. However, the concentration of Shaghaf Oud is simply too much! It is far too intense and the longer you smell this fragrance, the more oppressive and unpleasant it becomes.
Performance and sillage are beyond good and bad, and I don't even mean that in a negative way! Some niche houses and designers can take a leaf out of this book. The overall performance is really out of this world, but Arabic/Oriental perfumes are notorious for that! And the price of a good €30 is also a real statement! For €30, this is really outstanding!
As good as the performance and the price-performance ratio are, I just find it hard to like this fragrance.
Quite apart from the fact that this fragrance is just obtrusive and unpleasant, I wouldn't even know what occasion I could wear it for! At work my colleagues would lynch me, on a date I would probably drive the woman away with it, outside on the street I would leave a cloud behind me that would give all passers-by the headache of their lives!
The scent is so strong that even 2 days after I sprayed it in my bedroom, it still smells like it - not as strong as yesterday or the day before, but you can still smell it!
This fragrance was definitely my last blind buy for now! Well, 30€ is half the price, but it was nevertheless a good reminder for the future not to be tempted by hype.
Well, there is one good thing about the whole thing, the shiny golden bottle is quite beautiful and looks good on the shelf next to the other fragrances.

A slightly more grown-up and mature version of the Ambassador.
I am quite pleasantly surprised by the fragrance. It's more or less a better and slightly less well-known version of the all-too-popular and well-known Gisada Ambassador. However, it is rather more elegant and less intrusive than the classic original. A slightly woody, leathery, powdery vanilla fragrance.
I got this fragrance as a blind buy and therefore didn't really know what to expect, but I wasn't disappointed. Since I liked the normal Ambassador, I thought I would give the rest of the Gisada product line a chance, especially since the normal Ambassador has become quite mainstream and almost everyone now owns this fragrance.
At the beginning, however, this fragrance is quite reminiscent of the equally well-known and popular Azzaro the Most Wanted perfume, only a little more tart and less sweet!
The chrome bottle also looks great!
I wore this fragrance at the company Christmas party and received a few compliments from colleagues; there was almost no other topic of conversation among the ladies than about my fragrance. One colleague even bought the fragrance for her husband for Christmas on my recommendation. The fragrance was definitely the star of the evening.
In terms of price, the fragrance is definitely still within a reasonable range, just under €80 for the 50ml bottle, absolutely fine! The sillage and the durability are also perfectly fine, with 3 sprays you can definitely get 4-5h, so that everyone can perceive the fragrance.

Great fragrance for the cold and dark season!
An absolute must-have for the cooler days! An absolute masterpiece from Azzaro alongside Wanted by Night!
The fragrance opens with a spicy and fresh citrusy ginger note and changes into a woody-sweet vanilla scent. This perfume can be placed in the same category as Armani SWY Intensely and Gisada Ambassador.
A very popular fragrance which is very well received by many. I have received compliments almost everywhere I have been, just the other day a lady standing behind me at the supermarket checkout asked me what fragrance it was and where to get it. Compliments are almost guaranteed with this fragrance!
The fragrance really is the absolute stunner, super sweet, beguiling but still masculine and very striking!
The durability and the sillage are very good, 2-3 sprays are easily enough to be noticed by the environment for 5-6 hours and when you enter a room everyone smells this fragrance!
In terms of price/performance, this fragrance is also unbeatable. Just under 60€ for the 50ml bottle is not that much and the fragrance is really great for this price segment!
A fragrance that I would buy again and again! It's the whole package, it doesn't cost half a fortune (like some other designer brands), smells good and lasts a long time and is also a safe blind buy.
If you're looking for a Christmas present for your father, brother, son, grandson or husband, you can't go wrong with this!

Heavenly! But with some minor flaws.
I had had my eye on this fragrance for a while and didn't know whether I would buy it. After much deliberation, I finally bought it after all - it was a blind buy!
The fragrance arrived and I applied the first few sprays full of anticipation. The fragrance itself is first class! It starts slightly citrusy, but quickly changes to creamy/spicy. It really smells like vanilla ice cream with cardamom and light orange accents. The fragrance is really very good and the absolute non plus ultra for winter! A gourmand fragrance as it should be!
But now for the downsides of this perfume. Firstly, the longevity is rather lax and really leaves a lot to be desired. After two to two and a half hours at the latest, you no longer really notice it and the sillage is not really what I had hoped for either.
The price of just under 100€ for a 50ml bottle is also a tough ask and frankly a bit overpriced for this rather desirable performance. My Azzaro Most Wanted perfume or my Armani SWY Absolutely last worlds longer and come pretty close to the fragrance component of Noir Extreme, but cost almost half as much and perform much better! Tom Ford can take a leaf out of the competition's book.
For €100, I expected a little more in terms of performance, but the fragrance is really amazing!
