    Your presentation on these Arabian fragrances is so real. Been looking at this type and not to sure about any blind buying at this moment. But the one you did mention on the powdery one did get my attention. Your emotional description sold me on your channel.

    Another beautiful lactonic fragrance I recommend u try by Lattafa is Nebras.

    • @jeanique
      @jeanique  Год назад +2

      I've had Nebras on my wishlist for sooo long! It's been out of stock for months. Everytime it gets restocked I can't order immediately and it sells out. Last time I was in a meeting when I got the restock notification and by the time I got out, they were sold out lol. I hope to get my hands on a bottle soon tho.

    I tried Yara a few days ago. I didn’t get any strawberry. On my skin, it smelled like a fusion between Cheirosa 62 & Bare Vanilla. ❤

    • @jeanique
      @jeanique  5 месяцев назад

      I think that's fair. My impression of it has been that it's like that red Hershey strawberry syrup in very thin milk with a bit of caramel. Which is pretty similar to what you describe lolol. It's not the kind of strawberry I get excited about but I can work with it

But definitely revisit they get better with time and some have just that a middle eastern DNA and I'm all for it!! Because honestly I love all perfume but definitely not the $$$.

      Aww thanks so much! Jamaica is a pretty wonderful place. I'm loving all these new perfumes. Also don't love the super high perfume prices. No idea what took me so long to get into Middle Eastern fragrances! I plan to put away the ones I'm not wearing this month or next month so they have a bit more time to mature. But I'll keep coming back to them cause if I paid for them, I will find a way to wear them lol

    I have Yara and Washwasha and i love both of them for those who wants a dupe for l'interdit the black one you should look for l'intrude it's almost the exact smell and the hold is amazing.
    Also for thise who love Oud you should try Badea l'Oud or Fakhr l'Oud they smell amazingly.

      I'm so happy my video was helpful. I'd heard such mixed reviews about Yara but I still needed to try it. I still don't love it. It's pretty boring. But someone recommended I layer it with even sweeter fragrances (they suggested Pink Sugar) and I ended up wearing it with SJP NYC, Riri and a couple others and now it's getting worn alot more. Washwasha and Modest Deux are such loves for me. Those were definite wins.

    Hey hey, I watched your video today and I must say.... I'm from Germany and I have some of these Parfums. What you said about fakhar is not right. I have it and the day I opened it... it was a shock. It disappointed me. But than I heard from other people that you must spray 2 or 3 times and let it sit for a while. 3 or 4 weeks. 🤫 and now look at this 😍 it is sooo beautiful and last and last. On my skin all day and on clothes till the next wash. And it is with all the lattafa Parfums. They changed and preformed very much better. I hope that was helpful...

    • @jeanique
      @jeanique  Год назад +1

    It gets better with maturation (Velvet Rouge). You are right it's not a beast, but mine is about 5 months in my home environment, and it is better in hot weather. It held up in the Texas summer well. Yulali, in that line by Swiss Arabian, might be up your Alley? Khamrah totally Rocks!!!

    • @jeanique
      @jeanique  Год назад

      Funny you mention it but Velvet Rouge ended up being one of my faves of the summer. I talked about how lovely it was in summer perfume wrap up video lol. So you're totally right. First impressions didn't show off how good it could be. And I'll definitely check out Yulali. Swiss Arabian has some real gems. Thanks for the suggestion

    Afnan Fleur Bouquet has been on my radar for awhile and think I'll eventually get it. The washwasha one sounds interesting as I also love white florals...but that bottle! I wish they would do less tacky, lol. I have the Khamrah and some of the recent Lattafa dupes like Bright Peach, Lovely Cherie, Tobacco Touch, Rose Petals and Woody Oud and they are very good.

    • @jeanique
      @jeanique  Год назад

    I don't get any strawberry scent from Yara. It smells like a scented barbie doll and powdered icing sugar mixed in moisturiser. When I wear it, I feel like I'm wearing a perfume meant for a toddler. Have you come up with any good layering combos with it?

    • @jeanique
      @jeanique  Год назад

      Haha I love that description! Someone recommended I do the opposite of my instincts and layer it with something even sweeter like Pink Sugar.

      Thank you. I see you have club de nuit woman. Do you like the la fleur better than that one? I'm looking for a spring fragrance in this family and I can only afford one. Really trust your opinion as your taste is very close to mine.

    • @jeanique
      @jeanique  8 месяцев назад

      so club de nuit woman (the chanel coco mademoiselle dupe) is a patchouli and white floral heavy fragrance that reads more work or grown up event. its beast mode and a very traditional fragrance with alot of throw. la fleur is a sweet, sparkly spring time floral thats light and very feminine. Its more of a sunday brunch fragrance but can be worn to work if you want something lighter and daintier for the daytime. I wear la fleur alot more often that club de nuit for women because I find it to be more versatile. hope that helps! now if you asked me to compare la fleur vs club de nuit imperiale id have a different answer lolol

    • @jeanique
      @jeanique  Год назад

      Really? It pulls flat and sweet on me. I wish it gave something else. Overtime it's definitely gotten better as its sat and aged but itll never be a fave. Now I layer it with super sweet fruit perfumes. Someone had recommended layering it with pink sugar and so I tried it with SJP NYC, Rihanna Riri and Kayali Eden Juicy Apple and its the only way I wear it these days.

    Hello dear, of all middle eastern perfumes in my collection khamrah is the best, and also al haramain gold edition!yesterday i received la fleur bouquet and i liked it, you have to learn to appreciate it because my idea of florals was Guerlain's jardin des bagatelles or champs elysees or idylle, l'heure bleue, and none of them are so sweet, so when you enjoy this type of fragrances oh my god...yara is so fake!maybe for teenagers but for women over 40 like me ...definately no😊😂

    • @jeanique

      Lol love your comment because I got the opposite feedback about la fleur bouquet. My friend assumed it would be sweeter and was upset it wasnt. I do really enjoy it though. I love a good mix of more classic florals and the more fruity ones. Some days u need Panthere and others you want My Way. I was shocked by how good Khamrah was. I wasn't prepared to love it so much. Yara has grown on me. Can't wear it on it's own but I've been layering the hell out of it.
