Middle Eastern here and I really loved your video. It was really interesting to see a point of view of someone who isn’t from here trying out Arabic scents but to be honest these perfumes are so hyped on TikTok and all but in our countries they aren’t so popular, like I only know Yara because it’s sold in the supermarket. We have a lot of trendy and amazing perfume brands here that I never see any RUclipsrs speak about but they are literally so popular where I am that when I go to the mall they are all I smell. The most popular brands here are Gissah, Anfasic Dokhoon, Hind AlOud, Ateej and Atyab Al Marshoud. Plus we have many small owned business that make amazing and unique fragrances.
Wish to try all the brand that u mentioned but maybe they not supply it globally? Im from Malaysia btw, just a few that export it here make it not much choice in the market so everyone litterally smell the same which i dont like it. I like to have my signature smell but ya arabic perfume the best
That is legit, we know for Al Qurashi and for niche perfumes, but they are 10x more expensive 😂😂 We use all of these, because they are affordable to the most of people 😅😅😂
This girl has my utmost respect, she listens to her followers. I saw someone make a comment a few days ago abt arabic perfumes but I didn’t think you’ll actually do the video- thank you so much Ksenja, as i am an Arab person and will enjoy this!
I also love how she has listened to her subscribers on video requests, but I have been asking for a video on “perfumes on my wishlist” for months now. and I always comment on her videos asking… but still nothing 😔 but hopefully she will! Fingers crossed 🤞
@@Emily-ij7nj i mean she doesn’t listen to every video request and there are lots of reasons- she doesn’t always do what i ask for and never judge her for it- me and you are not her only subscribers. She may not be intrigued by the idea or maybe its not the kind of content she wants to create, but she has complete freedom in what she choose to make. I as a subscriber thinks she does a lot more listen than tons of other yb out there
I grew up with my mom wearing all these middle eastern fragrances and perfume oils (Attar) and I love how people are learning about them here in the US.
I’m arab but I’ve never bought an arabic perfume i found them heavy and they bring me headaches but recently I’m into them and I’m learning to mix and match to make them the way I like but l really like musk it smells clean fresh and powdery😂❤
Mine too, when I first tried it I was blown away at the uniqueness and couldn't stop sniffing it. I layer mine with eos cashmere vanilla or a sweet Victoria secret lotion.
I have numerous middle eastern fragrances. For those new to them, my advice would be to let them sit if you’re not sure about them at first. Kayali fragrances are like that too for me. I’ve had a few middle eastern fragrances that I wasn’t impressed with when I first got them. A couple I thought were kind of gross at first. After they sat, I’m SO glad I didn’t declutter them! I absolutely love them now!
@@ml.3873 just depends on the fragrance. Some were just a few weeks. Others I just put away and didn’t reach for them until the next season. Fall/winter fragrances would just sit until the next fall/winter and then I’d try them again. I have a huge collection of fragrances so it’s easy to let some sit for however long. I’d say just check them periodically and see how/if they change.
@@amberdawn8128 hi i agree with you. I’m about 8 months into these fragrances and noticed giving them a little time works whether good or not. Seems she is just getting started. She will catch on quickly I’m sure.
I just ordered Choco Musk, and, due to a credit I had, got it for $.14!!! Winning! 😁 Thanks for this review! I have been wanting to try more Middle Eastern scents. This was helpful because we usually have similar tastes. Thanks!
@@stefs1155 no. I actually sold it. Some say you have to let them sit, but after a month, it still smelled like a packet of hot chocolate mixed with rubbing alcohol to me. Family members agreed. It must smell different on others because I can’t imagine how people wear it. 💁🏼♀️
Lattafa khamrah, lattafa fakhar (women), lattafa nebras, al rehab french coffee, al rehab dalal, al rehab love apple and al rahab soft- u can try them out ,especially khamrah is a must try ❤
Al Haramain amber rouge is a great dupe for baccarat rouge if anyone wants to get an expensive smelling scent for a fraction of the price. It smells sooo good and gets me compliments, and I’ve also smelled it on a guy and it smelled amazing.
I appreciate you telling the world about fragrances like these...I own all but one of these and like you - I paid next to nothing for them! In fact, I have bought like at least 10 of your budget fragrance recommendations over the years! And they are fantastic! Worthy of owning and wearing - for sure! But, not everyone is aware of fragrances from other parts of the globe..and Middle-eastern perfumery has a ton of wonderful, affordable options! So, folks need to know...Keep doing what you do girl! You are helping so many people smell beautiful without going broke!
So I was born and raised in Dubai and grew up wearing Arabian fragrances and oud/attar (perfumed oils) and Bakhoor (I smoke my clothes and my body after showers and I smell heavenly for sooo long istg) and one of the perfumed oils (Attar) that I don't see many people talking about are the ones from "Afnan". It's super affordable and lasts sooo long, I use the "Dehn Al Oud" attar from Afnan and the "Musk Abiyedh" attar from Afnan. They're soo soo nice and the layering potential is so incredibly good, especially the musk one layers well with most fragrances. I was gonna gatekeep these haha but you have to try!
Idk if you will read this but I am a fan in Germany ❤️ we have many English perfume RUclipsrs but I prefer your content (even though it’s in English) forever You have the perfect mix of cheapies, expensive, Nische etc. Thank you ❤️ Greetings from Hamburg
@@Puppylove82-gv3gm agree with this! the roller ball doesnt really roll, it just tugs at my skin?? But i have both the oil and perfume, i love them layered hehe
You musi try Al Rehab Soft if you haven’t yet! Super sweet and warm, cozy vanilla. I have a roll on but there is a spray version as well, which I’m planning to buy. Recommend for a sweet and vanilla perfume lover
You described Yara exactly how I do! I wear it to run errands and always get at least 2+ compliments every time. I'll be trying Choco Musk since it's really affordable. Thanks for the recommendations. 😊
Love the theme of this vid! Shagaf Oud by Swiss Arabian is also a winner to me! Beautiful winter rose oud fragrance and decent Lancôme Oud Bouquet dupe
Choco musk is delicious! To me it smells exactly like a bowl of Cocoa Puffs. Your impression of Yara is the same as mine! Everyone said it was like a strawberries and cream scent but I got mixed tropical fruits and cream. Both scents are great!
@@charmedbymeghanlol! I was trying to figure out what chocó musk reminded me of!!! It is definitely Cocoa Pebbles! Lol! Unfortunately I only like it for bed cozy times!!!! I will have to try, Yara!
Ksenja! My Bank Account girl! 😂 Thank you for posting! I have been intrigued by Arabic fragrances ever since I smelled one on my bestie. His cologne was bomb! It’s funny you mentioned Cheirosa and Kayali. Those are some of my faves.
Hi Ksenja! Here are a few to try: Al Haramain Rawaa, Swiss Arabian Wajd, Afnan Rare Tiffany, Bait al Bakhoor Supreme Amber and Supreme Musk, the Lattafa Opulent line. I could go on and on :)
I love my arabian fragrances!!!! And Ana abiyedh is one of my absolute faves, on my 3rd bottle now 😆 You just HAVE to try layering it with cherosa 62 omg, fruity, musky, sweet, vanilla, pistachio HEAVEN!!! I got 3 compliments that afternoon Another Erba Pura dupe and a must have is Al haramain Amber oud Gold, it’s like Ana Abiyedh but a bit deeper and a strong note of pineapple 😍, I layer that with pineapple slice from Victoria’s Secret and OMG complement magnet and so intoxicatingly delicious
@@aperfumememoir_ hmmm I’d have to go with al haramain gold as my fave, that pineapple note gets me and this one is BEAST MODE, will literally fill up a room
Perfect dupe for Erba Pura is Al Haramain amber oud gold edition. I returned my Erba Pura after I realized I already had a scent just like it in my collection and wasn’t aware it was an exact dupe.
I dont think I've ever clicked on a thumbnail that fast before. 😂 I've been waiting for you to do a video on Middle Eastern Fragrances for a long time. I looove Casablanca especially paired with Golden Sands by Al Rehab (The scent gets amplified even more) or Choco Musk (Smells like a walking Dessert) I've been hesitant to get I AM WHITE, but since you like it I'll definitely get it. Some of my favorite Middle Eastern Perfumes are: Jasmine Wisp (Rasasi) Khamrah (Lattafa) Badee Al Oud Amethyst (Lattafa) Bint Hooran (Ard Al Zafaraan) Amber Oud Gold (Al Haramain) I look forward to seeing your Part 2. Keep up the great work ❤
@@aperfumememoir_ No they aren't the same. To some people they might be a bit similar, however, Jasmine Wisp is like a deep fruity, woody vanilla and Amber Oud Gold is like a light Fruit basket that has mainly pineapple, vanilla and a touch of oud. As for which one I like better, (though they are both favorites) I would pick Jasmine Wisp.
Hi, Ksenja, here in Spain everyone is buying arab perfumes. As always, I am late, because buying a perfume without actually smelling it before make me very nervous, but at last I'll receive Yara tomorrow. And I'm very glad to know you find it similar to Cheirosa and with a tropical vibe, because some people keep saying it smells like an strawberry yoghourt, and I prefer your description. Hope you're right 😘
@@Puppylove82-gv3gmSorry I didn't answer before, summer is very hot in Sevilla and I couldn't try Yara properly on my skin till the end of september. And yes, I like It very much, it's a compliment getter and for the price, no complains. It is a kind, sweet perfume with a holiday vibe, easy going... I am sure I'm going to🎉 enjoy this fruity-lactonic smoothie, and my younger daughter and her friends, they actually LOVE it
@@Lovely-ff7uvI've just updated it in my answer to Poppylove82, I hope you find It useful. I don't think this perfume has a tropical vibe, on my skin is a creamy cake with some jelly fruits on the top, but not too sweet.
I wasn’t really ever into chocolate/vanilla scents. D&G light blue has always been my go to. But I ALWAYS get compliments ever since I’ve started wearing the Choco Musk. Now I wear it all the time.
I absolutely love Arabic perfumes from Habibi New York! I own all of the Woman's & most of the Unisex scents. They are all unique and the men's smell amazing!!
can u do a pt.2? i was just searching for the best on budget arabian parfume and ur vid catched my eye! i really like that u also put the prices and the parfumes name at the bottom, i hope u could do a pt.2! :)
My latest discovery is the perfume Nero di Monreale by Aria di Sicilia. There are many different perfumes made by Aria di Sicilia, all of them are named after a significant place in Sicily. Nero di Monreale has notes of coffee beans, dark chocolate and licorice and I am obsessed! A 50ml bottle is 58€, so not really the cheapest, but it smells sooooo good!
Girl you have a beautiful taste really 💞 your descriptions are quite accurate too! May God continue to bless you always, plus that hairstyle is so cute!
Seeing you trying now Middle Eastern Fragrance 😊 You can never go wrong with AL REHAB CHOCO MUSK! You can layer it to any scent. Try also SOFT, other FragHeads have said its similar to Xerjoff LIRA.
I LOVE Soft! I layer it with Lemon Pound Cake from Bath and Body Works. I smell like a dessert and get so many compliments with that combo. A good buy on the cheap!
A breath of fresh air reviewer!! New subscriber thank you! So many content creators only review mens fragrances your reviews help me look out for some nice scents for my wife.
There is a new one out that’s suppose to smell like delina! By Arnaf ( the other well known brand after Lattafa) I heard a lot of good stuff about them :) love your reviews! Always trusted always accurate Club de Nuit White Imperiale Armaf
Imperiale is GOOD!! In my opinion of course. I just picked it up and it’s the perfect combo of Delina and Delina Exclusif! I have a full bottle of Exclusif and love it. I never picked up a full bottle of Delina though because it was too sharp for me. Imperiale is perfect!!
Yes! Lattaffa is litrerally that girl. The Middle Easterns are long and strong.! Been meaning to pick up Casablanca. Yara has been the #1 forever. Chocolate musk I like to wear to bed for some reason. Lattaffa Oud Mood and flankers are strong and spicy like Opulent Musk and flankers. Harem Al Sutan is a fruity booty patootie! Ana Abiyedh and the flankers are strong perfection! Crown Perfum’s Soft is a cloud of soapy goodness. The ME fragrances last ALL DAY! And be careful not to spray too much!
I have lattafa yara,al rehab soft, dalal,choco musk,red rose,pink breeze,love apple..waiting for my dirham wardi and lattafa fakhar rose ❤❤❤❤❤ i want to try ana abiyedh since u described it so good,i just based my research on fragrantica reviews and it wasn't good,but now that u said it is,im def gonna buy that too..😉
I keep finding my self on your channel watching your fragrance video idk why I’m not subscribed 😬🤣🤝🏽 I love your videos thanks for sharing you got all the ones I wanna try, hope I like them 🥳🤞🏽
Yara is my most complimented fragrance im so addicted to the smell and my students compliment me a lot when I have on choco musk ! Lol they say I smell like cake 😭 I love Arabic perfumes !! I’ll probably never go back to regular perfumes again
Some of my favorite Middle Eastern perfumes are Khamrah, Nebras, Andaleeb, Yara, Ana Abiyedh Rouge and Ansaam Gold. Ones I want to try are Sakeena, Sondos, Amber Oud and Nasheet to name a few.
I have a few of the same ones you have. I’d recommend trying to get your nose on Sondos. It has a metallic note on my skin. I’m letting it sit for a while before I decide if I’m keeping it in my collection. As of now, I don’t wear it. The opening is great but the drydown goes weirdly metallic on me.
Amber Oud Gold edition is a banger though. When I first got it, all it smelled like was melon. I didn’t like it. HOWEVER, I let it sit for a while and I’m killing the bottle so far this summer. It definitely aged well!!
I did a review of Ana Abiyedh and you are spot on about it being long lasting. It survived on my clothes after a wash cycle! If you want something that stays with you, Ana Abiyedh is it AND the cost is out of this world. Spray lightly!
I have some to try: Lattafa, Nebras Gold (for women), Lattafa Fakhar for Woman, Lattafa Khamrah Unisex. Also Orientica, Amber Rougue for Women. And not my favorite Delinah by Maison Alhambra. All reasonably long lasting and reasonably prices
I almost bought Lail Maleki by Lattafa last month when FragranceNet had it so discounted - would love a review of that one!! Love the variety of the Arabic scents, can't wait to try!! xoxo
I been gate keeping one and it’s sukkar Banat by Al rehab I’m in Australia and can only get hold of the roller ball but omg I literally get compliments after compliments wearing this one and when it’s back in stock I’m going to order heaps more to add to my stash cause o need this for life
Thanks for the Choco Musk recommendation. Its a sweet dream of a fragrance and i absolutely love it!!!!!!! Lots of great compliments with this 🍫 perfume.
Lattafa Nebras - first few sprays I wasn't sure, because faint licorice was off putting, but after a week, that licorice disappeared completely, and parfume deepened even more into choc cake smell. Nothing artificial about it, OMG, such an addictive parfum, I can wear it all day every day. Khamrah is very very popular, but to me very off putting because of the prominent smoke. I didn't realise smokey feel really chokes me, in any parfume, and smoke doesn't disappear, so Khamrah is no to me. The sweetness is very nice, but I have to choke on smoke for like 6h before I get dates, pralines etc. Also, with Khamrah, it is not so "well rounded" as Nebras is. Shaghaf oud (gold bottle) is very very synthetic smelling to me. I will wait a bit longer, so see if it get better later on. It is a dense scent, but not projecting well at all. Very strange. If synthetic bit does not disappear, I will not purchase that one. Al rehab French Coffee is literally like a coffee candy. Strong coffee, but I would not wear it on its own (a bit boring - one dimensional). So I will layer it with others and experiment. I moved into Arabic parfumes because of sweetness. I like sweetness in every parfume. High Street brands are off putting to me, because many of them have strong floral notes, which I cannot handle at all. I dont like opium at all. I don't like any Chanel type. I liked Dior J'adore dfor a while, but it became later too floral again, and sold it. My only favourite was Dior Dolce Vita, which used to be an amazing scent, they changed '90s formula, and now is watery in comparison to the original, I wouldn't pay £30 for it, let alone £100+...this is just my experience. Parfume scent is very personal thing, but quality is very important. If they smell synthetic, that is a big nono. I dont like any synthetic baby powdery or air freshener scents either. My best oud scent is Venezia Monotheme Black Oud (sold in M&S), very sweet but light oud, not synthetic at all, and good staying power. Best price on MakeUp website, an absolute bargain for such a good quality parfume in my opinion. Well rounded, like high end perfume to me. Completely unisex, bought 2 bottles for my husband, now I stole one for myself 😁😁😁
Modest deux by afnan is beautiful,all of lattafa perfumes are beast and so affordable, Nebras, Assam gold, Santos, Andeleeb, opulent musk, and club di nuit imperial ❤️
I bought Afnan Inara white last year for myself bcs i heard it has similar vibes to Mancera intense café (though it's not)... It smells like freshly crushed roses mix with brown sugar... I didn't use it much but my daughter(17)and her classmates even the other students, she doesn't know, stop her and ask her about it. It's just for 18 euros... Her friends both boys and girls keep on smelling her... And most of them bought it too... I like it but don't love it... Though it's a pleasent fragrance... I think for youngsters it's a good middle eastern brand... I like their 9AM and supermacy scents also the rare Tiffany is a love
Erba Pura smells incredible, my husband bought me a big bottle when he went to UAE I get so many compliments when i wear it. Here in the UK we have a brand called Sunna Musk which sells the most incredible smelling arabian perfume oils. I've been wearing Sunna Musk since 2010 and it's a brand i will always buy from their prices are very affordable too.
I am intrigued by Yara. I added it to my “wishlist” Currently on perfume buying ban for 2 months lol I got choco musk both oil and the perfume bottle. And I think I got unlucky. Based on fragrnetica reviews , it seems they make different batches. So some batch smell very potent and delicious. And the one I got, seems to have zero fragrance. I let it age for a month or two, and I can get the vanilla scent now. Reminds me of Solinotes vanilla one, and bath and body works Warm Vanilla Sugar. I am hoping if I age it for few more months, it will get more potent. Let’s see Also intrigued by Casablanca, but La Belle (I like it but it’s too sour for me) comparison making me a little nervous to blind buy it But if it is gonna be sweet (the vanilla dry down of Vanilla 28 vs the floral opening) like vanilla 28, then I would love it
Ok I have to check out these perfumes now! P.S. Would you consider doing Zara review again? (Like Golden decade, Rose gourmand)? I’m really interested in golden decade because it’s supposed to be a dupe for Libre intense
Filthy Rich Queen by Dubai is the most amazing perfume I've had the pleasure of smelling. It lasted two days even after I showered. It also cost $495... 😬
I've had Choco Musk on my shelf for 3 to 4 years now and when I first spray it, I get a burst of vanilla then the chocolate and I didn't feel like it lasted very long but I definitely enjoy it.

💯
Layer Casablanca with Light Blue. Amazing and makes it wearable in the summer m. Sooo good
I dont think I've ever clicked on a thumbnail that fast before. 😂 I've been waiting for you to do a video on Middle Eastern Fragrances for a long time.
I looove Casablanca especially paired with Golden Sands by Al Rehab (The scent gets amplified even more) or Choco Musk (Smells like a walking Dessert)
I've been hesitant to get I AM WHITE, but since you like it I'll definitely get it.
Some of my favorite Middle Eastern Perfumes are:
Jasmine Wisp (Rasasi)
Khamrah (Lattafa)
Badee Al Oud Amethyst (Lattafa)
Bint Hooran (Ard Al Zafaraan)
Amber Oud Gold (Al Haramain)
I look forward to seeing your Part 2.
Keep up the great work ❤
Are amber oud gold and jasmine wisp the same? Which one do you like better?
@@aperfumememoir_ No they aren't the same. To some people they might be a bit similar, however, Jasmine Wisp is like a deep fruity, woody vanilla and Amber Oud Gold is like a light Fruit basket that has mainly pineapple, vanilla and a touch of oud. As for which one I like better, (though they are both favorites) I would pick Jasmine Wisp.
@@ChevyChev thank you!
@@aperfumememoir_ You're welcome. I hope you try them and come back to tell me your thoughts.
Hi, Ksenja, here in Spain everyone is buying arab perfumes. As always, I am late, because buying a perfume without actually smelling it before make me very nervous, but at last I'll receive Yara tomorrow. And I'm very glad to know you find it similar to Cheirosa and with a tropical vibe, because some people keep saying it smells like an strawberry yoghourt, and I prefer your description. Hope you're right 😘
I got yara too! I love it, I just wish it lasted longer. Do you love it?
Update on your blind buy
@@Puppylove82-gv3gmSorry I didn't answer before, summer is very hot in Sevilla and I couldn't try Yara properly on my skin till the end of september. And yes, I like It very much, it's a compliment getter and for the price, no complains. It is a kind, sweet perfume with a holiday vibe, easy going... I am sure I'm going to🎉 enjoy this fruity-lactonic smoothie, and my younger daughter and her friends, they actually LOVE it
@@Lovely-ff7uvI've just updated it in my answer to Poppylove82, I hope you find It useful. I don't think this perfume has a tropical vibe, on my skin is a creamy cake with some jelly fruits on the top, but not too sweet.
I wasn’t really ever into chocolate/vanilla scents. D&G light blue has always been my go to. But I ALWAYS get compliments ever since I’ve started wearing the Choco Musk. Now I wear it all the time.
This was one of my favorite videos of yours! So good! I didn’t know about these at all.
I have choco musk and casablanca and I love them!!! I need to get my hands on yara, sounds great 😍😍😍
Choco musk is hyped for a REASON! :) it lasts so well in my hair, I love pairing it with YSL black opium!
I absolutely love Arabic perfumes from Habibi New York! I own all of the Woman's & most of the Unisex scents. They are all unique and the men's smell amazing!!
This hairstyle suits you so well 😮! You’re beautiful 🤩❤️
Choco musk is so so sweet and so so good I gotta get at least two back ups if you love chocolate and vanilla you’ll love this!!
Yayyy Ksenja posted!! You always make my day when you post. Ive been just waitinggg for you to make a video about Arabian fragrances🎉
Recommendations:
Dirham Wardi, Armaf club de nuit edp...not Arabian but some vanilla scents Nebras and Giardini de Toscana.
can u do a pt.2? i was just searching for the best on budget arabian parfume and ur vid catched my eye! i really like that u also put the prices and the parfumes name at the bottom, i hope u could do a pt.2! :)
Yara is so pretty but on my skin there is no projection, but skin smells amazing. Arabian bottle designs are like a tale of the 1001 Nights. ..
Choco musk retails for $7 in my country......... Can't beat that;)
If you like Erba Pura you might want to try Al Haramain Amber Oud Gold Edition. If it seems very ‘melony’ at the beginning, let it sit! It gets GOOD!!
My latest discovery is the perfume Nero di Monreale by Aria di Sicilia. There are many different perfumes made by Aria di Sicilia, all of them are named after a significant place in Sicily. Nero di Monreale has notes of coffee beans, dark chocolate and licorice and I am obsessed! A 50ml bottle is 58€, so not really the cheapest, but it smells sooooo good!
Lataffa Nebras is a dead on dupe for Eilish… you’d love it
It lasts longer too IMO
Girl you have a beautiful taste really 💞 your descriptions are quite accurate too! May God continue to bless you always, plus that hairstyle is so cute!
Seeing you trying now Middle Eastern Fragrance 😊 You can never go wrong with AL REHAB CHOCO MUSK! You can layer it to any scent. Try also SOFT, other FragHeads have said its similar to Xerjoff LIRA.
I LOVE Soft! I layer it with Lemon Pound Cake from Bath and Body Works. I smell like a dessert and get so many compliments with that combo. A good buy on the cheap!
you look stunninggggg !! i'm obsessed with this look 🤩🤩
Look behind you on your shelf sis. Yara smells like sunset glow by bath and body works lol
A breath of fresh air reviewer!! New subscriber thank you! So many content creators only review mens fragrances your reviews help me look out for some nice scents for my wife.
You look so great with these bangs!!
There is a new one out that’s suppose to smell like delina! By Arnaf ( the other well known brand after Lattafa) I heard a lot of good stuff about them :) love your reviews! Always trusted always accurate
Club de Nuit White Imperiale Armaf
Imperiale is GOOD!! In my opinion of course. I just picked it up and it’s the perfect combo of Delina and Delina Exclusif! I have a full bottle of Exclusif and love it. I never picked up a full bottle of Delina though because it was too sharp for me. Imperiale is perfect!!
there is a better dupe for delina by lattafa called delilah it's supposed to be the best and cheapest dupe for delina
@@auroraborealis565 yes I heard that was better! I want to try that and better price
Casablanca reminds me of silky woods but with added caramel apple vibes! 🍏🪵
Your the best by not trashing Arabian perfumes. Thanks for your honest opinion
Actually Choco musk was being sold for 50 EGP less than 2 years ago
And I really regret not buying it back then 😭😭😭😭
I just bought the Choco musk perfume on Amazon after watching, I’m so excited to smell it!
Do you like it
@@kittykraze2350 I love it!
Happy to hear your interest in Middle Eastern fragrances. You seemed to be more of a youngster in the fragrance world
i layer my choco musk with eilish edp + bbw christmas cookies + bbw vanilla bean noel
Gona watch this now 🤩 love your style and videos, love from lebanon
As an arab, great video. It's true, middle eastern perfume is in fact intoxicating in every way. Props to u!!
Yes! Lattaffa is litrerally that girl. The Middle Easterns are long and strong.! Been meaning to pick up Casablanca. Yara has been the #1 forever. Chocolate musk I like to wear to bed for some reason. Lattaffa Oud Mood and flankers are strong and spicy like Opulent Musk and flankers. Harem Al Sutan is a fruity booty patootie! Ana Abiyedh and the flankers are strong perfection! Crown Perfum’s Soft is a cloud of soapy goodness. The ME fragrances last ALL DAY! And be careful not to spray too much!
I have lattafa yara,al rehab soft, dalal,choco musk,red rose,pink breeze,love apple..waiting for my dirham wardi and lattafa fakhar rose ❤❤❤❤❤ i want to try ana abiyedh since u described it so good,i just based my research on fragrantica reviews and it wasn't good,but now that u said it is,im def gonna buy that too..😉
Thanks for the video, I like it and I agree with your perception of these perfumes, Arabic perfumes are amazing!💜
I keep finding my self on your channel watching your fragrance video idk why I’m not subscribed 😬🤣🤝🏽 I love your videos thanks for sharing you got all the ones I wanna try, hope I like them 🥳🤞🏽
I looove Arabic fragrances. You should try La’venture Femme by Al Harmaine, Soft by Alrehab and Khamrah by Lattafa
What does l’aventurine femme smell like
It's supposed to smell like Coco Chanel Mademoiselle@@aperfumememoir_
Yara is my most complimented fragrance im so addicted to the smell and my students compliment me a lot when I have on choco musk ! Lol they say I smell like cake 😭 I love Arabic perfumes !! I’ll probably never go back to regular perfumes again
Does it really smell like sol de Janeiro's Brazilian crush?
Yep!@@kittykraze2350
Some of my favorite Middle Eastern perfumes are Khamrah, Nebras, Andaleeb, Yara, Ana Abiyedh Rouge and Ansaam Gold. Ones I want to try are Sakeena, Sondos, Amber Oud and Nasheet to name a few.
I have a few of the same ones you have. I’d recommend trying to get your nose on Sondos. It has a metallic note on my skin. I’m letting it sit for a while before I decide if I’m keeping it in my collection. As of now, I don’t wear it. The opening is great but the drydown goes weirdly metallic on me.
Amber Oud Gold edition is a banger though. When I first got it, all it smelled like was melon. I didn’t like it. HOWEVER, I let it sit for a while and I’m killing the bottle so far this summer. It definitely aged well!!
@@amberdawn8128 Thank you for telling me. It’s pretty expensive too, so I would hate not to like it. I knew it was a reason I was hesitant lol
Sondos....wouldn't blind buy. Amber oud Gold edition....BOMB!! I always macerate middle eastern perfumes.for 2 weeks to a.month........gets better and.even better with time......
Love your hair in this video! I love all the fragrances you recommend so guess I’m going to save money this time😂
I did a review of Ana Abiyedh and you are spot on about it being long lasting. It survived on my clothes after a wash cycle! If you want something that stays with you, Ana Abiyedh is it AND the cost is out of this world. Spray lightly!
I have some to try: Lattafa, Nebras Gold (for women), Lattafa Fakhar for Woman, Lattafa
Khamrah Unisex. Also Orientica, Amber Rougue for Women. And not my favorite Delinah by Maison Alhambra. All reasonably long lasting and reasonably prices
I almost bought Lail Maleki by Lattafa last month when FragranceNet had it so discounted - would love a review of that one!! Love the variety of the Arabic scents, can't wait to try!! xoxo
I been gate keeping one and it’s sukkar Banat by Al rehab I’m in Australia and can only get hold of the roller ball but omg I literally get compliments after compliments wearing this one and when it’s back in stock I’m going to order heaps more to add to my stash cause o need this for life
the way i waited for this one❤❤you look so pretty ksenja
I have a few bottles of Choco Musk. I layer it in the winter and get tons of compliments.
Thanks for the Choco Musk recommendation. Its a sweet dream of a fragrance and i absolutely love it!!!!!!! Lots of great compliments with this 🍫 perfume.
I hate it 😂it’s so exaggerated on the chocolate😢
Good review! I layer choco musk with The Scent makes it last longer.
If you can find it: 💕Lattafa's Ansaam Gold💕is a perfect Inspiration of Oriana with sooo much more lasting-power😍😍😍
Lattafa Nebras - first few sprays I wasn't sure, because faint licorice was off putting, but after a week, that licorice disappeared completely, and parfume deepened even more into choc cake smell. Nothing artificial about it, OMG, such an addictive parfum, I can wear it all day every day.
Khamrah is very very popular, but to me very off putting because of the prominent smoke. I didn't realise smokey feel really chokes me, in any parfume, and smoke doesn't disappear, so Khamrah is no to me. The sweetness is very nice, but I have to choke on smoke for like 6h before I get dates, pralines etc. Also, with Khamrah, it is not so "well rounded" as Nebras is.
Shaghaf oud (gold bottle) is very very synthetic smelling to me. I will wait a bit longer, so see if it get better later on. It is a dense scent, but not projecting well at all. Very strange. If synthetic bit does not disappear, I will not purchase that one.
Al rehab French Coffee is literally like a coffee candy. Strong coffee, but I would not wear it on its own (a bit boring - one dimensional). So I will layer it with others and experiment. I moved into Arabic parfumes because of sweetness. I like sweetness in every parfume. High Street brands are off putting to me, because many of them have strong floral notes, which I cannot handle at all. I dont like opium at all. I don't like any Chanel type. I liked Dior J'adore dfor a while, but it became later too floral again, and sold it. My only favourite was Dior Dolce Vita, which used to be an amazing scent, they changed '90s formula, and now is watery in comparison to the original, I wouldn't pay £30 for it, let alone £100+...this is just my experience. Parfume scent is very personal thing, but quality is very important. If they smell synthetic, that is a big nono. I dont like any synthetic baby powdery or air freshener scents either. My best oud scent is Venezia Monotheme Black Oud (sold in M&S), very sweet but light oud, not synthetic at all, and good staying power. Best price on MakeUp website, an absolute bargain for such a good quality parfume in my opinion. Well rounded, like high end perfume to me. Completely unisex, bought 2 bottles for my husband, now I stole one for myself 😁😁😁
Modest deux by afnan is beautiful,all of lattafa perfumes are beast and so affordable, Nebras, Assam gold, Santos, Andeleeb, opulent musk, and club di nuit imperial ❤️
Realy enjoyed the video!! 👍🫶🤟
Try french coffee by al rehab it's so freaking good makes me wanna drink it 😂
It’s sow hard to find it anywhere in the States and I heard in Europe too
I’ve been looking for that one for awhile. 😩 I can’t find it anywhere.
I want French coffee so bad. So hard to find
I bought Afnan Inara white last year for myself bcs i heard it has similar vibes to Mancera intense café (though it's not)... It smells like freshly crushed roses mix with brown sugar... I didn't use it much but my daughter(17)and her classmates even the other students, she doesn't know, stop her and ask her about it. It's just for 18 euros... Her friends both boys and girls keep on smelling her... And most of them bought it too... I like it but don't love it... Though it's a pleasent fragrance... I think for youngsters it's a good middle eastern brand... I like their 9AM and supermacy scents also the rare Tiffany is a love
Thanks for all of your dedication to fragrances!! I love your videos you rock!!
Omg you need to try Mayar by Lattafa and Future La Femme by Armaf. They’re so good
Thanks so much for this video, I always love your opinions😊
Erba Pura smells incredible, my husband bought me a big bottle when he went to UAE
I get so many compliments when i wear it.
Here in the UK we have a brand called Sunna Musk which sells the most incredible smelling arabian perfume oils. I've been wearing Sunna Musk since 2010 and it's a brand i will always buy from their prices are very affordable too.
Hi Ksenja. You really need to get a Sapil Rave for women ❤️ Trust me it’s absolutely amazing and it’s so cheap 👀
If you like Eilish then you will absolutely ADORE Nebras by Lattafa.
Agree Nebras is so good! It's stronger than Billie Eilish and not an exact dupe, but I actually prefer it to B.E.
I am intrigued by Yara. I added it to my “wishlist”
Currently on perfume buying ban for 2 months lol
I got choco musk both oil and the perfume bottle. And I think I got unlucky. Based on fragrnetica reviews , it seems they make different batches.
So some batch smell very potent and delicious. And the one I got, seems to have zero fragrance.
I let it age for a month or two, and I can get the vanilla scent now. Reminds me of Solinotes vanilla one, and bath and body works Warm Vanilla Sugar.
I am hoping if I age it for few more months, it will get more potent. Let’s see
Also intrigued by Casablanca, but La Belle (I like it but it’s too sour for me) comparison making me a little nervous to blind buy it
But if it is gonna be sweet (the vanilla dry down of Vanilla 28 vs the floral opening) like vanilla 28, then I would love it
Yara is pretty but it doesn’t last
ana abiydh poudree…omg i can’t recommend it enough. it smells so angelic and feminine. it’s a sort of musky vanilla
Love your bangs, what did ask the hairdresser when she did it as never had this done.. they look so good! x
These are wispy/see-through bangs.
Ok I have to check out these perfumes now!
P.S. Would you consider doing Zara review again? (Like Golden decade, Rose gourmand)? I’m really interested in golden decade because it’s supposed to be a dupe for Libre intense
It is exactly like libre intense.
Filthy Rich Queen by Dubai is the most amazing perfume I've had the pleasure of smelling. It lasted two days even after I showered. It also cost $495... 😬
I have Lattafa Khamrah (aka Angel's Square lol) and it's delicious. Also have several Al Haramain dupes and a roller of Choco Musk!
Choco musk dissappointed me, i expected a brownie or a rich chocolatey scent but its so faint and simple 🙄
I've had Choco Musk on my shelf for 3 to 4 years now and when I first spray it, I get a burst of vanilla then the chocolate and I didn't feel like it lasted very long but I definitely enjoy it.
I relate to more of your nose lol 🤷🏽♀️ I can appreciate cheap & expensive perfumes & that’s as real as it gets! Thank you…
Hi Ksenja good morning happy Saturday morning and happy weekend and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
Just went a d sprayed choco musk (bought from your influence in the past!) Get a chocolate eclair, will try with Billy eilish, ty
Ok so Yara has been sitting my basket for days now. I was praying you would do a review on it. Going to purchase it now 😂
