Shadow for women — sold under the name Shadow Gold because of its golden juice — is the feminine counterpart to the masculine Shadow, and it is far softer.
— The opening pairs Brazilian rosewood with lavender and a juicy nectarine. Rosewood is a rare and expensive material, lightly spiced and floral at the same time; it is what gives the opening its elegance.
— The heart is short and clean: orchid and patchouli. The orchid brings a creamy floral, the patchouli keeps it from turning sweet.
— The base is the real subject: ambergris and musk. Ambergris is one of the most precious materials in perfumery — warm, salty, enveloping — and it is what stays on the skin at the end of the day and makes people turn around.
A warm feminine fragrance, suited to mid-afternoon through the evening, at its best in autumn. Its construction is simple, which makes it legible from the first minute: you know straight away whether you like it.

Viola is the most structured feminine of the Ajmal range: it starts fruity and ends woody, which is rare in this category.
— The opening pairs blackcurrant with bergamot, with spiced accords that sting slightly. It is bright and a little biting; it wakes you up.
— The heart is a very clean white floral trio — jasmine, lily of the valley, rose. It softens the opening without sweetening it.
— The base is the real reason to buy it: cedar, patchouli and vanilla. That is what gives it staying power and what lifts it out of the crowd of interchangeable fruity florals.
Ajmal states more than eight hours, one of the brand's best performances. It is listed as feminine, but the woody base makes it entirely wearable by a man who likes fruity fragrances. Spring and summer, daytime, from casual to semi-formal.

Evoke Midnight Edition Her is the night-time version of the Evoke feminine, and the most spiced of the line.
— The opening is short and bright: bergamot and pink pepper. Pink pepper is not a hot pepper, it is a lightly pink, fruity berry — it gives relief without attacking.
— The heart is the real signature: jasmine, geranium and cardamom. The geranium brings a green, rosy facet that gives the jasmine structure, and the cardamom spices it just enough that it is not one more floral.
— The base is warm and tenacious: patchouli, musk and amber. That is what makes it last and what gives it its evening character.
A spiced floral for the evening, autumn and winter — more assertive than a classic Evoke Her, without going as far as a heavy oriental. Two sprays are enough, the cardamom rises fast. If you are hesitating between the two Evoke feminines: the plain Her is for daytime and the office, the Midnight is for going out.
The notes
Top — Bergamot, pink pepper
Heart — Jasmine, geranium, cardamom
