Lattafa Pride Guide: Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold or Ansaam Gold? (Hot Weather in Johor Bahru)

If you're shopping for a perfume in Johor Bahru and want something that makes sense in our weather, Lattafa Pride has two 100ml EDPs that come up a lot: Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold and Ansaam Gold. Both are Eau de Parfum, both are from the same brand, but they go in completely different directions. This guide breaks down what each one is actually like, when to wear it, and which one fits your week better.

Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold by Lattafa Pride

Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold is a unisex Oriental Amber EDP in a 100ml bottle. It's the warmer, richer one of the pair. The opening is sweet notes blended with soft spices, and from there it moves into an amber and woody heart that the store describes as smooth. The base settles into vanilla, musk and creamy woods.

Because of that profile, this is more of an evening and special event perfume than a blazing mid-afternoon one. Its occasions are listed as evening, special event and casual, so it still works for a casual dinner or a night out in JB when the sun has gone down and you're hopping between air-conditioned spots. And since it's unisex, it's the easy pick if you want one bottle you and your partner can both reach for.

Ansaam Gold by Lattafa Pride

Ansaam Gold is a floral aquatic EDP for women, also in 100ml. It opens with pear and mandarin, which gives it a bright, fruity freshness — and that's the part that makes sense for hot days. The heart brings rose, jasmine and a candy accord for a sweet, feminine feel, while the base of raspberry, musk and vanilla keeps things warm as it settles.

This is the natural one for daily wear. Its occasions are daily, special event and casual, and summer is right there in its seasons list. So for a regular day in Johor Bahru — commuting, lunch, errands, wandering a mall — a fruity-floral like this fits much more naturally than something heavy and warm.

So which one should you pick?

It really comes down to when you'll wear it most:

• Hot daytime wear: Ansaam Gold. The pear and mandarin opening, in a floral aquatic family, is the lighter and fresher option, and it's built for daily use.
• Evenings and special events: Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold. The amber, vanilla and creamy woods make it the warmer, deeper choice for dinner or a night out.
• Sharing one bottle: Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold, since it's unisex. Ansaam Gold is made for women.

Both are 100ml EDPs, so you're not choosing between sizes or concentrations — it's purely about scent direction and occasion. If you're still torn, think about your typical week in Johor Bahru: more daytime outings points to Ansaam Gold, more dinners and night plans points to Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold.
