Always spray out your middle eastern perfumes when you first get them .like spray it like 10 times to get the oxygen in there.then let the perfume sit for a couple of weeks even a month if you can wait. The perfume will smell amazing and youll get all the notes your supposed to get and they will be beasts. Fyi.😊
Have you tried Bade’ Al Oud Sublime by Lattafa? They say it’s similar to Eden Juicy Apple by Kayali. It’s very inexpensive and a really nice fruity woody perfume. 💗
Really, it is better to start arabic scents adventure with those not very oud-y first, I love Arabic scents but oud started choking me and I can't do this note anymore unless barely detectable. Sweetness and powderiness is not helping me to bare it which is more the powderiness started annoying me :(Luckily there are many not oudy ones :)
Yara Moi is my least favorite. I love Yara and Yara Tous, but I’m not crazy about Yara Moi. It’s quite “earthy” to my nose and I would recommend skipping it.
Yesss and it’s great! I don’t mind spend like 150-175 IF it’s long lasting projects etc but lately I’ve been buying things like from Kayali love 💕 her blends but they last ten mins on me I’m sooo done!! So I’m glad there’s the apple dupe! Now if they could do kayalis burning cherry!??🍒
Hopefully the Arabian perfumes will continue to be reasonably priced. I feel like their prices are starting to go up, especially since they are becoming more well known.❤😊.
It's about time too bc I stopped buying a lot of designers after 2001 bc of the FDA making them weak. I stick with niche,indie and now middle eastern. Trust me the designers u get used to be Soo much stronger pre 2001. Now they are watered down and the price tripled. I refuse to be robbed. I remember 2002 when I re bought old loves like jpg classique I immediately saw a difference in scent, longevity etc. I went on an investigation and found out about what the FDA did. Trust me you young girls would've died if u smelled how potent everything was back pre 2001. Even drug store perfumes were beast mode. It's a crime what they done. You could t even go in a Macy's and spray more than 1 perfume bc the sales lady would ve yelled at ya. Nowadays u can spray 5 perfumes and not smell a THING a min later. That's scary. They are robbing folks. I wish people would boycott designers. For real they are generic too
@@danashackleton3790 true some are super watered Down! So the designer ones I’m still wearing? Are ok I have poison don’t Dior ( it’s not the same as the 80s! Ha but it lasts! Replica Kayali etc a joke!! Like water 😢
I highly recommend these having similar dna Lattafa affection/Paris corner Khair- both are similar as kayali yum pistachio Lattafa Ba'ade al oud sublime(no oud)- similar as kayali eden juicy apple Lattafa rave now woman(pink bottle)- similar as Burberry Her elixir Lattafa nebras- similar as billie eilish no1 Lattafa khamrah and khamrah qahwa (flanker)
rave now (pink bottle) looks cheap plastic) about3-4 hours on skin. just okay nothing to write home about. Probably not buy again and maybe just gift away! Sublime is very nice, looks expensive! desent longevity. So far that's all for this list
@@Annqt19 i agree the bottle of rave now woman is very cheap looking. I hate it but it lasts 5/6 hours on my clothes and sublime lasts 4/5 hours. Love both of them. I never use more than 5 sprays. Maybe let them sit for a while to see if they last longer and get better over time.
Lattafa Nebras is my absolute number one fragrance, it's so beautiful, it honestly blows my mind and I will need another bottle already. just a gorgeous blend of vanilla and cocoa. I also love Rose 01 swiss arabian which is a dupe for Delina, the projection and longevity is phenomenal! some other favs: Reyna by maison alhambra Khamrah and Qahwa by Lattafa Affection by Lattafa which is supposed to be a dupe for Kayali yum pistachio. Choco musk Junoon noir (dupe for sol de janeiro 40) Nebras by Lattafa Ansaam gold Lattafa
Where can u purchase Khair Pistachio? Alot of comments are recommending it but I can only find a website that is in a foreign language and doesn't ship to USA???
As an Arab I'm glab more people are being introduced to Arabic perfumes...Perfume and Bukhor (incense) is an an important part of our culture especially in the gulf region
I think you might be interested in Nebras Lattafa, Khamrah and its flanker Khamrah Qawha, Khair Pistachio, Rave Now woman and Club de Nuit White Imperial. I’ve got Yara (from your review and love it!), Nebras and Khamrah. Still waiting for Khamrah to macerate though, I didn’t like the first spray it smelled too middle eastern for me. After watching this review I might get Yara Tous the mango scent sounds delicious
Shaghaf oud was my first arab fragrance and its still a favourite. I have around 50 arabs atm. Amethyst is a dupe for initio atomic rose btw. If u like sweet u need to try Khamrah 👍🥰
I have a lot of middle eastern perfumes. They are great. Also the magic is, that they smell different in hot weather. Those strong one "winter" perfumes I'm affraid to wear, I tried on my vacation and suprise... they smell amazing, different and suprisingly not owerwhelming. Something happens with them and you really feel like in middle east...
Slightly off topic but did you see that some Target stores are carrying new scents from Fine’ry? There’s a pistachio one with vanilla and I think tonka bean! I believe it’s called Pistachio Please (I know you’ve mentioned how you love pistachio)
You should really try Khamrah, and Shaghaf Oud Tonka, I recommend those 2. I have Khair pistachio on the way, which is said to be a dupe for Yum pistachio. I'm personally very curious about El Nabil Royal Gold and Ard al zafaraan Dirham Wardi
@@divine1745 can't really compare, Khamrah is spicy sweet while Shaghaf oud tonka is nutty sweet, so totally different. Shaghaf oud tonka also doesn't have oud even though it's in the name
I also have been buying Middle Eastern fragrances and have only had one fail. Qaed al Fursan unlimited and Nebras have been my best purchases. My most recent purchase was Paris Corner Khair Pistachio.
Also if you like burberry her elixir try lataffa rave now pink for women.such a good one.with all these middle eastern perfumes you do have to spray them out then let them sit for a few weeks to really get the true beauty of the fragrance. Never go buy when you first get the fragrance. 😊❤
hi, what im about to tell u is not Arab! perfumes related. I know u love recomendations and since i started to watch ur vids i dont think ive seen u talked about these perfumes. So here it goes. Ok so theres this line called "Ulric de Varensthey" and they have one called (Varens Sweet Vanille Caramel) and in the notes it has Syrup! and so many other yummy notes. But OH MY GOD to me when it starts to dry down u can smell like like a vanilla syrupy scent that to me is adicting. and it smells sooo delicious. And the cherry one smells amazing too. I still have to try to other ones from the line.
@@vivu4327 Hi. so far ive tried the (Vanille Caramel) & (Varens Sweet Cerise Pistache) and (Varens Sweet Grenade Passion). Just those 3. I still have to try the rest of them. But the vanilla thats the best one for me so far, and then comes the cherry one. The vanilla it last enough and on clothes u can still smell it. The cherry one i think is a bit weaker, but i wear lotion "fragrance free" and spray it on the areas. And it really does help and last LONG time at least on me. Also they dont cost that much. try them out.
@ksenja you should have tried Lattafa Affection (love) or khair pistachio these are two dupes for KAYALI'S YUM PISTACHIO. Also Rifaaqat by Paris corner which is dupe for YSL BABY CAT 🐈..a very good one.
H2O Just Add Water was my childhood! I too re-watch it, but only during summer. It's a little summer tradition for me. Such a nostalgic, comforting show. 🥰So happy that you love it too! Thank you for these wonderful Arab perfume recommendations. 💖
I am so glad u did this video!! I have been getting into the Arabic fragrances for a while now I have the pink bottle yara I have been wanting to try the orange bottle thank you for the nice review on it. ❤❤❤
If hasn’t been mentioned Infini Rose by Maison Alhambra. The reviews compare it to Atomic Rose by Initio but they’re mixed. I found it looking for another perfume and blind bought it. I love it! I’ve never smelled Initio Atomic Rose to compare it.
I’m obsessed with it. I’m dying to smell the Lattafa Khamrah Qahwa flanker. Everyone so far says it’s exactly like original Khamrah plus coffee, and that sounds like the perfume of my dreams.
So excited that you are reviewing more Arab fragrances! I have almost all of the ones you reviewed today, except the ones with rose, since I am usually not a fan. Some of my favorites are Lattafa Nasheet (Nishane Ani dupe), Bade'e al Oud Sublime (Kayali Eden Juicy Apple dupe), Lattafa Khamrah, Shaghaf Oud Tonka, Pistachio Khair (Kayali Yum Pistachio dupe), Rave Now Pink/Women (Burberry Her/Burberry Her Elixir dupe), Rifaaqat (Great dupe for Babycat!), Francique 63.55 or Lattafa Liam (Gris Charnel dupe), and Frenetic Delicieuse (dupe of Feve Delicieuse). Nebras is also great and Rasasi Qasamat Ebhar is similar to Casablanca, but a little more complex, which I love. Since I am not a huge fan of oud, none of these have any oud in them either. I really appreciate the quality, longevity, and great price of Middle Eastern fragrances!
I absolutely hate Yara. It's underwhelming &doesn't give enuff and does not smell like strawberry like people say imo. It's cute for a 10 yr old. I don't get the hype with it at all. Amethyst is awful too. Outta all my middle eastern perfumes those 2 are the worst.

Girl you have to get Lattafa Nebras in the black and gold bottle. It is a sweet warm and cozy cocao scent. As a gourmand lover you will fall in love with it!!!
I feel like a lot of popular Arab fragrances are actually duping niche fragrances… there are definitely original ones but even the purple one is a dupe?
i can vouch for khamrah!! please try it if you can. i took that bracelet-looking thing right off my yara bottles after i found out that they barely even secure it onto the bottle 😭
I really really hate shagaf oud. Im selling it on mercari 😮 so i guess i hate oud 😢 My faves are nebras and french coffee and chocomusk so shagaf oud was just veryyyy differenr for me 😅
Shaghaf Oud was a big fail for me. It's very masculine leaning to my nose, like a strong aftershave lotion. I returned it. Shaghaf Oud is better for men than women IMO.
Arab perfumes need to macerate, they never smell the way they do at the beginning after some wear & time, mine have become so much more blended & smooth & less harsh so it won’t do it justice with just a first impressions
I really like the Al Fursan a lot! I also like the Yara (pink). I have the Shaghaf Oud and I like it but it has to be cold for me to wear it. It may be harder for you to get those really cool temps. I want to try the Tous but haven’t yet. I did get Infini Rose and I enjoy that a lot. Also just got the Khair Pistachio and it’s divine! Waiting on Sublime and Shaghaf Oud Tonka! Excited to try these as well! Great video! I want to get Liam and Rifaqaat one is a dupe for Gris Charnel and the other is a dupe for Baby Cat, I hear they are spot on!
Khamrah is stunning. Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold ( dupe of Rosendo Mateo no.5) is absolutely gorgeous. I layer them together sometimes and lemme tell you, every time I do, I get stopped in the street, at work, in shops, to be asked what I'm wearing. Conpliments galore! Atoof by Paris Corner is another dupe of RM5. Nebras by Lattafa is stunning, and Choco Musk, and French Coffee by Al Rehab. All gorgeous gourmands and the last two are ridiculously inexpensive 😊
Can u please describe the rosendo Mateo #5 dupe more. I've been back and forth for months debating on whether to get it or not. That has the most love/hate reviews I have ever seen and there isn't enuff videos on it. I feel like I'd love it but not sure bc of the rubber tires people get. Thanks.
I'm no perfume reviewer, haha! I'm not great identifying notes, lol, but I'll try! There's a little rubbery saffron on the opening, which stays throughout but soon retreats into the background, blending with some leather and suede. Dry down brings some background sweetness from vanilla and caramel that seems to increase on me the longer I have it on. Perfectly unisex, but it can be sweetened up if you find it too masculine. It projects like crazy and lasts a 10 hour day for me without reapplication. I have 100+ fragrances, yet I have back-ups of this. THAT'S how good this is for me. Forever in my collection! I'll happily decant you a few mls if you are in the UK 😊
I found out that letting Middle Eastern fragrances to macerate for some 2-3 weeks helps the true fragrance come forth, I had to do that with Qasd Al Fursan and many other Middle Eastern brands I’ve purchased
Hi, do you agree with her description of the fragrance of Qaed al fursan unlimited? Smelling like plasticky and sunscreen like fragrance? Can you give how it actually smells like after maceration?
I don't like Yara Tous perfume , I bought it bec I like mango smell but for me it doesn't smell like mango .it smells like Jasmine and I don't like Jasmine smell.
You absolutely need to try lattafa khamra it’s lasted on my skin for 12 hours + and I normally struggle with longevity on my skin absolutely shocked it smells amazing
Oh yay I’m glad you did the coconut lataffa one! My first Arab perfume buy was a disaster! It was opulent red by lataffa! And it was soooo bad 😢so I was a bit scared,😱 but then I got khamrah and I fell in love!! 🥰 and then I got la voie by maison Alhambra it’s wonderful bubblegum tuberose my way dupe ( I would never buy my way it was a like not a love) so it’s nice to spend $22! But so far khamrah has been such a spicy winter hit!! Loved this review can’t wait for more 💕!!
Qaed al fursan unlimited smells like a luxurious lotion that you don't need to wear perfume with. The coconut beachy-ness is secondary to my nose. It layers well with alot. The best combo i did so far is with pink pineapple sunrise.
Not sure if you ever purchased Yara white bottle, but I personally hate it. I have Yara pink bottle, which I absolutely love love. Yara white bottle gave me a huge headache which never happens.
One particularly favorite amongst my family (my brother liked it a lot given that he really doesn't like much of my perfumes) is gotta be Bint Hooran by Ard Al Zaafran. Oh damn it smells heavenly. You should try it, if you haven't already. It smells like CH Good Girl.
Great video! I loved watching it. If you're interested in perfume, we just uploaded a full audiobook called "Exploring Fragrance in the Quran." We'd love for you to check it out! 🥰💜
Hey don’t go off of the notes from lattafa or fragrantica ever, they don’t accurately describe the perfumes, lattafa especially purposely put misleading notes. Amethyst is a clone of Initio atomic rose which does not have oud. It’s just more jammy rose than the original.
Ksenja, you've gotta get your hands on some Armaf fragrances. Specifically, the Club De Nuit line... Club De Nuit for Women, Imperiale, Untold and Intense. They are all dupes and they are better than the fragrances they're duping, in most cases...
New subscriber. My lattafa yara tous will be in on Monday from Amazon and I am so excited. I will be putting it with the swiss arabian layali rouge concentrated perfume oil and see what magic happens🎉🎉❤.
Bade’e Al Oud Sublime is another one that’s really good. It’s compared to Kayali Eden Juicy Apple, it comes in a red bottle that looks like the Amethyst one. If you leave them to macerate for about a month, they really shine, and they’re incredibly long lasting.
I think YOU WOULD LOVE :Hareem Al Sultan Gold Khadlaj Perfumes(You in a bottle;), forgot to mention Rifaqaat (cult status now : YSL Babycat) and niche /luxury one from Lattafa : MUSAMAM WHITE INTENSE (luxury ,original composition not duping anything!). I didn't recommend KHAMRAH as it doubled in price because the hype, I refuse even to try it for double of original price. Some people say it is typical ''warm'' arabic scent found in Loreal oils schampoo ;) anyway...
Are these scents actually manufactured in the UAE or are they Chinese?, because I really am not tryna to deal with anything made in China which goes on my skin. No shade, just safety concerns.

THESE ARE THE MOST RAVED ABOUT/RECOMMENDED that I think you will like : Infini Rose by Lattafa or Rose Explosion by FA Paris (ATOMIC ROSE by INTITIO) dupes, fruity Bade'e Al Oud Sublime (Kayali Apple dupe), VIBRANT VETIVER DELIGHT (Bal De Africe Dupe), LIAM (more feminine dupe of Gris Charnel BDK), Khair Pistacio (if you like Kayali Pistachio Gelatto:) I personally like MAZAAJI (ELLIE SAAB ROYALE dupe) and love LATTAFA AA ROUGE (BR 540) as well as ROUGE PRIVE by EMPER (Armani Rouge Malachite without the sage! posh but still Alien vibes;)
My favorite middle eastern fragrances are Lattafa Opulent Red, Ard Al Zaafaran Dirham Wardi, and Al Rehab Choco Musk. Honestly, Choco Musk is my cool weather bedtime scent and these days I always want to wear either Opulent Red or Dirham Wardi during the day, these are just my favorite fragrances.
Since you like Zara Rose Gourmand, I think you would like Lattafa Mayar (pink bottle)! It's a super fruity and sweet one, really feminine and to me it's giving Rose Gourmand + added fruits (lychee and raspberry)! Kinda like the love child of Rose Gourmand and Kayali Sparkling Lychee.
Unfortunately it's been so long since I smelled Love Don't Be Shy that I can't really remember it, but based on the notes I don't think so. Mayar opens very fruity, there might be something similar in the drydown as both have vanilla and musk. A lot of people on Fragrantica seem to agree Mayar is duping Mugler's Angel Nova@@ktmakeupvixn8590

Yeees!
🙌🏾
Thank you for this !!
Yep this is what I've done. The longer they sit, the better they are.
Omg I needed this video! I was looking for my first Arab perfume to buy. Thank you for taking your time to make this for us 🤍
OOOH! I LOVE H2O! I've seen every episode. yes, definitely a very good comfort show. 😊
Have you tried Bade’ Al Oud Sublime by Lattafa? They say it’s similar to Eden Juicy Apple by Kayali. It’s very inexpensive and a really nice fruity woody perfume. 💗
Two saudi brands one called perfume Palace and the other called toog.
Both crazy beautiful and affordable and I use both brands❤
Really, it is better to start arabic scents adventure with those not very oud-y first, I love Arabic scents but oud started choking me and I can't do this note anymore unless barely detectable.

You NEED to try Lattafa Ansaam Gold !!!
Yara Moi is my least favorite. I love Yara and Yara Tous, but I’m not crazy about Yara Moi. It’s quite “earthy” to my nose and I would recommend skipping it.
One thing is for sure, arab fragrances are cornering the market. Now there are more affordable options for us fragrance lovers. 🤔🤔
Yesss and it’s great! I don’t mind spend like 150-175 IF it’s long lasting projects etc but lately I’ve been buying things like from Kayali love 💕 her blends but they last ten mins on me I’m sooo done!! So I’m glad there’s the apple dupe! Now if they could do kayalis burning cherry!??🍒
Hopefully the Arabian perfumes will continue to be reasonably priced. I feel like their prices are starting to go up, especially since they are becoming more well known.❤😊.
It's about time too bc I stopped buying a lot of designers after 2001 bc of the FDA making them weak. I stick with niche,indie and now middle eastern.

@@danashackleton3790 true some are super watered
Down! So the designer ones I’m still wearing? Are ok I have poison don’t Dior ( it’s not the same as the 80s! Ha but it lasts! Replica Kayali etc a joke!! Like water 😢
Then We Can Stop Purchasing Them Also.
So they better not get TOO smart !

Omggg what?!?! Gotta look into that🤯thank youuu🙏🙏😌
I love how you mentioned the relationship we all share, YES, I’ve bought sooo many of your recommendations
Sooo many of hers and the audiences suggestions had me $$ 😅
Absolutely!
My favorite Arab fragrance is Shaghaf Oud Tonka from Swiss Arabian! It is creamy tonka with cherry and almond. It is cozy and comforting.
You need to try Afnan Modest Deux, Lattafa Liam, Lattafa Affection.
I second Modest Deux!!! Such a nice fruitier dupe for Lancome La Nuit Tresor!
YES!
You should really try Khamrah, and Shaghaf Oud Tonka, I recommend those 2. I have Khair pistachio on the way, which is said to be a dupe for Yum pistachio.
I'm personally very curious about El Nabil Royal Gold and Ard al zafaraan Dirham Wardi
I love khamrah, can’t wait to try oud tonka. How do they compare ?
@@divine1745 can't really compare, Khamrah is spicy sweet while Shaghaf oud tonka is nutty sweet, so totally different. Shaghaf oud tonka also doesn't have oud even though it's in the name

Where did you buy Khair pistachio from?
Dirham Wardi smells amazing, reminds me of Miss Dior
I also have been buying Middle Eastern fragrances and have only had one fail. Qaed al Fursan unlimited and Nebras have been my best purchases. My most recent purchase was Paris Corner Khair Pistachio.
One of the sexiest, most mysterious combos I’ve discovered is layering Bade'e Al Oud Amethyst and Alien 😍 I’m talking vampy, sexy, and intoxicating!
Definitely try shagaf oud tonka!! 😭🤤 and then the red lataffa badee al oud sublime (supposed to be a kayali juicy apple dupe)
Yesss! I feel like she would really like those in particular!
Also if you like burberry her elixir try lataffa rave now pink for women.such a good one.with all these middle eastern perfumes you do have to spray them out then let them sit for a few weeks to really get the true beauty of the fragrance. Never go buy when you first get the fragrance. 😊❤
Rave Now Woman is so so good!

I have yara moi, and it is delicious! I’ve heard it described as a peach cookie vanilla scent, and I am obsessed with it!
Agreed! It was love at first sniff for me ♥️
Yara moi only smells like flowers on my skin. It’s oke, but I prefer Yara and Tous on my skin. Perhaps it needs to macerate?
Layering vanilla 28 and shaghaf Oud works very well and makes it more wearable for me
Together it smells like a burning vanilla candle🥰

I’d definitely try Khair Pistachio
Shaghaf oud stinks bad girl. But I luv the rest!
If hasn’t been mentioned Infini Rose by Maison Alhambra. The reviews compare it to Atomic Rose by Initio but they’re mixed. I found it looking for another perfume and blind bought it. I love it! I’ve never smelled Initio Atomic Rose to compare it.
I highly recommend Khamra which is the most popular arab perfume of 2023
Ohh that’s the one that smells like that spicy Angel Share.
@@pupplylove3003 it's not an Angel's Share dupe. Its a Dates Delight dupe.
I’m obsessed with it. I’m dying to smell the Lattafa Khamrah Qahwa flanker. Everyone so far says it’s exactly like original Khamrah plus coffee, and that sounds like the perfume of my dreams.
They keep jacking up the price!
@@DaPhlyymameeI've noticed that too.
So excited that you are reviewing more Arab fragrances! I have almost all of the ones you reviewed today, except the ones with rose, since I am usually not a fan. Some of my favorites are Lattafa Nasheet (Nishane Ani dupe), Bade'e al Oud Sublime (Kayali Eden Juicy Apple dupe), Lattafa Khamrah, Shaghaf Oud Tonka, Pistachio Khair (Kayali Yum Pistachio dupe), Rave Now Pink/Women (Burberry Her/Burberry Her Elixir dupe), Rifaaqat (Great dupe for Babycat!), Francique 63.55 or Lattafa Liam (Gris Charnel dupe), and Frenetic Delicieuse (dupe of Feve Delicieuse). Nebras is also great and Rasasi Qasamat Ebhar is similar to Casablanca, but a little more complex, which I love. Since I am not a huge fan of oud, none of these have any oud in them either. I really appreciate the quality, longevity, and great price of Middle Eastern fragrances!
I don’t understand why people enjoy purchasing fragrances that smell like sunscreen. Sun bum smells lovely on its own and is an actual sunscreen..
what are you yapping about ?
I absolutely hate Yara. It's underwhelming &doesn't give enuff and does not smell like strawberry like people say imo. It's cute for a 10 yr old. I don't get the hype with it at all. Amethyst is awful too. Outta all my middle eastern perfumes those 2 are the worst.
I was addicted with H2O!! Such a good show.

Thanks!
Girl you have to get Lattafa Nebras in the black and gold bottle. It is a sweet warm and cozy cocao scent. As a gourmand lover you will fall in love with it!!!
I feel like a lot of popular Arab fragrances are actually duping niche fragrances… there are definitely original ones but even the purple one is a dupe?
i can vouch for khamrah!! please try it if you can. i took that bracelet-looking thing right off my yara bottles after i found out that they barely even secure it onto the bottle 😭
Unlimited reminds me of Vanilla Fields to me. I liked it but it also brought me back to my childhood too! ❤
I really really hate shagaf oud. Im selling it on mercari 😮 so i guess i hate oud 😢
My faves are nebras and french coffee and chocomusk so shagaf oud was just veryyyy differenr for me 😅
Shaghaf Oud was a big fail for me. It's very masculine leaning to my nose, like a strong aftershave lotion. I returned it. Shaghaf Oud is better for men than women IMO.
Arab perfumes need to macerate, they never smell the way they do at the beginning after some wear & time, mine have become so much more blended & smooth & less harsh so it won’t do it justice with just a first impressions
So true almost no point in doing a new bottle freshly opened review
Hi Ksenja happy Friday night and I hope you having amazing day today and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter
Any recommendations for someone who likes fruity/floral/coconut scents? I’m not a heavy or musky scent perfume lover.
Paris corner khair pistachio is a great dupe for yum pistachio and lasts. I find it better than lataffa affection. 😊
I really like the Al Fursan a lot! I also like the Yara (pink). I have the Shaghaf Oud and I like it but it has to be cold for me to wear it. It may be harder for you to get those really cool temps. I want to try the Tous but haven’t yet. I did get Infini Rose and I enjoy that a lot. Also just got the Khair Pistachio and it’s divine! Waiting on Sublime and Shaghaf Oud Tonka! Excited to try these as well! Great video! I want to get Liam and Rifaqaat one is a dupe for Gris Charnel and the other is a dupe for Baby Cat, I hear they are spot on!
you should try Nebras by lattafa.
Khamrah is stunning. Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold ( dupe of Rosendo Mateo no.5) is absolutely gorgeous. I layer them together sometimes and lemme tell you, every time I do, I get stopped in the street, at work, in shops, to be asked what I'm wearing. Conpliments galore!
Atoof by Paris Corner is another dupe of RM5.
Nebras by Lattafa is stunning, and Choco Musk, and French Coffee by Al Rehab. All gorgeous gourmands and the last two are ridiculously inexpensive 😊
Can u please describe the rosendo Mateo #5 dupe more. I've been back and forth for months debating on whether to get it or not. That has the most love/hate reviews I have ever seen and there isn't enuff videos on it. I feel like I'd love it but not sure bc of the rubber tires people get. Thanks.
I'm no perfume reviewer, haha! I'm not great identifying notes, lol, but I'll try!
There's a little rubbery saffron on the opening, which stays throughout but soon retreats into the background, blending with some leather and suede. Dry down brings some background sweetness from vanilla and caramel that seems to increase on me the longer I have it on. Perfectly unisex, but it can be sweetened up if you find it too masculine. It projects like crazy and lasts a 10 hour day for me without reapplication. I have 100+ fragrances, yet I have back-ups of this. THAT'S how good this is for me. Forever in my collection! I'll happily decant you a few mls if you are in the UK 😊
I found out that letting Middle Eastern fragrances to macerate for some 2-3 weeks helps the true fragrance come forth, I had to do that with Qasd Al Fursan and many other Middle Eastern brands I’ve purchased
Wht u mean by macerate?
Hi, do you agree with her description of the fragrance of Qaed al fursan unlimited? Smelling like plasticky and sunscreen like fragrance? Can you give how it actually smells like after maceration?
@@prettylady5904 allowing the fragrance to set without spraying it
@@withlove.prerna I purchased mine from Amazon and did not have that experience
Shaghaf oud tonka by swiss arabian is a good one and also anabis leyla. 😊
Omg can’t wait to try that one
U need to Try khamrah rn!!!!!
I don't like Yara Tous perfume , I bought it bec I like mango smell but for me it doesn't smell like mango .it smells like Jasmine and I don't like Jasmine smell.
I would love to know your thoughts on Nebras by Lattafa! It’s a dupe for Billie Eilish’s, Eilish! 😍👌🏻✨
I know you have a backup of Yum Pistachio...but girl Khair Pistachio is amazing!! Girl...
You absolutely need to try lattafa khamra it’s lasted on my skin for 12 hours + and I normally struggle with longevity on my skin absolutely shocked it smells amazing
The bottles are beautiful. I wanna try the pink yara fragrance.
I have it and i looove it!
@@didi9220 I have a sample of it coming from mercari
Oh yay I’m glad you did the coconut lataffa one! My first Arab perfume buy was a disaster! It was opulent red by lataffa! And it was soooo bad 😢so I was a bit scared,😱 but then I got khamrah and I fell in love!! 🥰 and then I got la voie by maison Alhambra it’s wonderful bubblegum tuberose my way dupe ( I would never buy my way it was a like not a love) so it’s nice to spend $22!
But so far khamrah has been such a spicy winter hit!! Loved this review can’t wait for more 💕!!
Did you let that Latasha sit for a while and go back to it I’ve seen a Videos it has a weird gasoline smell that tends to go away after sometime
@@karuk72yessss let it sit three months it was just too heavy too gas but my khamrah purchase was a hit!!
Qaed al fursan unlimited smells like a luxurious lotion that you don't need to wear perfume with. The coconut beachy-ness is secondary to my nose. It layers well with alot. The best combo i did so far is with pink pineapple sunrise.
Not sure if you ever purchased Yara white bottle, but I personally hate it. I have Yara pink bottle, which I absolutely love love. Yara white bottle gave me a huge headache which never happens.
One particularly favorite amongst my family (my brother liked it a lot given that he really doesn't like much of my perfumes) is gotta be Bint Hooran by Ard Al Zaafran. Oh damn it smells heavenly. You should try it, if you haven't already. It smells like CH Good Girl.
Great video! I loved watching it. If you're interested in perfume, we just uploaded a full audiobook called "Exploring Fragrance in the Quran." We'd love for you to check it out! 🥰💜
Hey don’t go off of the notes from lattafa or fragrantica ever, they don’t accurately describe the perfumes, lattafa especially purposely put misleading notes. Amethyst is a clone of Initio atomic rose which does not have oud. It’s just more jammy rose than the original.
Ksenja, you've gotta get your hands on some Armaf fragrances. Specifically, the Club De Nuit line... Club De Nuit for Women, Imperiale, Untold and Intense. They are all dupes and they are better than the fragrances they're duping, in most cases...
New subscriber. My lattafa yara tous will be in on Monday from Amazon and I am so excited. I will be putting it with the swiss arabian layali rouge concentrated perfume oil and see what magic happens🎉🎉❤.
Bade’e Al Oud Sublime is another one that’s really good. It’s compared to Kayali Eden Juicy Apple, it comes in a red bottle that looks like the Amethyst one. If you leave them to macerate for about a month, they really shine, and they’re incredibly long lasting.
I think YOU WOULD LOVE :Hareem Al Sultan Gold Khadlaj Perfumes(You in a bottle;), forgot to mention Rifaqaat (cult status now : YSL Babycat) and niche /luxury one from Lattafa : MUSAMAM WHITE INTENSE (luxury ,original composition not duping anything!). I didn't recommend KHAMRAH as it doubled in price because the hype, I refuse even to try it for double of original price. Some people say it is typical ''warm'' arabic scent found in Loreal oils schampoo ;) anyway...
Are these scents actually manufactured in the UAE or are they Chinese?, because I really am not tryna to deal with anything made in China which goes on my skin. No shade, just safety concerns.
Lattafa Tharwah Gold, similar vibe to Libre Intense and Paris Corner Eternal Coffee- smells like a caramel latte!
Is Yara Tous heavy on coconut? Really looking for a coconut heavy scent to take with me to the beach in Asia :)

THESE ARE THE MOST RAVED ABOUT/RECOMMENDED that I think you will like : Infini Rose by Lattafa or Rose Explosion by FA Paris (ATOMIC ROSE by INTITIO) dupes, fruity Bade'e Al Oud Sublime (Kayali Apple dupe), VIBRANT VETIVER DELIGHT (Bal De Africe Dupe), LIAM (more feminine dupe of Gris Charnel BDK), Khair Pistacio (if you like Kayali Pistachio Gelatto:) I personally like MAZAAJI (ELLIE SAAB ROYALE dupe) and love LATTAFA AA ROUGE (BR 540) as well as ROUGE PRIVE by EMPER (Armani Rouge Malachite without the sage! posh but still Alien vibes;)
Umm yes I've watched it... with my kids of course.
I have seen every episode of H20! I have a high-school daughter that used to watch that show everyday. Then repeat😂. It was her happy place too.
😂yes I love H20 still watch it and I'm 34 yrs
Try evoke golden addition by ajmal
Absolutely layer it with Sheik Al Shuyhk deluxe 🔥
My favorite middle eastern fragrances are Lattafa Opulent Red, Ard Al Zaafaran Dirham Wardi, and Al Rehab Choco Musk. Honestly, Choco Musk is my cool weather bedtime scent and these days I always want to wear either Opulent Red or Dirham Wardi during the day, these are just my favorite fragrances.
Im waiting for this video! Yay!
You have to try the Yara tous and qaed together 🤤 So good
Since you like Zara Rose Gourmand, I think you would like Lattafa Mayar (pink bottle)! It's a super fruity and sweet one, really feminine and to me it's giving Rose Gourmand + added fruits (lychee and raspberry)! Kinda like the love child of Rose Gourmand and Kayali Sparkling Lychee.
I've heard Lattafa Mayar being duped for Killians Love Don't Be Shy....since you own it, would you agree??
Unfortunately it's been so long since I smelled Love Don't Be Shy that I can't really remember it, but based on the notes I don't think so. Mayar opens very fruity, there might be something similar in the drydown as both have vanilla and musk. A lot of people on Fragrantica seem to agree Mayar is duping Mugler's Angel Nova@@ktmakeupvixn8590
Nebras!! It's compared to Billie Eilish Eilish.
The black Asad from latafa is for men I believe
My favorite is musk mood❤
You need to get Kahir Pistachio!
Great video! Love your fragrance list. I have all of these fragrances and I love all of them. Thanks for the review. 😊
