I like that your reviews are based on user experience with emphasis on projection and longevity. I like my fragrances strong, wafting through my nose as move around. This list is going to be my primary. I hope you are right 😀😁
Hey Omar, I hope this isn’t a weird video request but can you do something on anamalic notes in colognes? I don’t have any idea about them, but I’m sure as someone very knowledgeable in the community you would know how they work or are popular
I preferred Diwan over Sultani. It's a patchouli musky balsamic treat ☺️ Underperforming in the first few weeks. Gave it time to macerate and now it's a beast mode fragrance
Al rehab's choco musk; i had been using the roll-on version casually even before jeremy recommended it in one of his older videos. Didn't know it was worth the recommendation 😃
Rasasi shuhrah is the second fragrance that stopped from buying designer scents sadly people find it polarising including reviewers too are afraid of making their stance,i dont think anyone can review perfume if its not worth talking about thats why i respect your reviews, from Botswana africa
You should check out more Arabian oud man!- would love to get your opinion on; kalemat, Amiri, Arabian knight silver, Rosewood, woody (and it's flankers). Not clones, high quality, niche perfumery from Saudi Arabia and reasonable prices They have a boutique in London too!
Hello Omar! I decided to buy Bade'e al oud Honor and glory the first day I heard you to talk about it as a very good fragrance, original and different to anything you had seen. This afternoon, this perfume arrived at my home and I decided to wear it to go for a snak with my friends. I'm really enjoying it now and, what's better, all my friends asked me about what perfume I'm wearing, because they love it. What a round and exquisite fragrance. What a great job has been done with this perfume! From Barcelona, thanks a lot for your reviews Omar!
Very informative I've ordered Lattafa Ameer Al Oudh Intense can't wait to try it! also very curious about Rasasi Shuhrah, I'm glad you're Egyptian too : )
Dolce & Gabbana The One Luminous Night. It's just an amazing, sexy scent that doesn't have any of The One's performance issues. Great Longevity (easily 8 hours on me) and solid projection. It's ambery and peppery but with a freshness to it, but also the sweetness of dates lurking around in it. Super complex, and here in my corner of the US I haven't smelled it on anyone other than me. It's definitely 10/10 from me, by far the best The One flanker, and with its performance I'd even rate it better than the original The One!
You should look into the house of Dumont. They're blowing up right now. For the most part, they don't do straight up clones (they do have a few). However, they do a lot of twists and inspired bys. Their Nitro line (Dumont Nitro Red is the big fragrance) and Axon line is geared towards the younger crowd and is around $35. They have their Borouj and Celerio line, which is their higher end line doing twists and inspired by more niche and higher end designer fragrances are even higher quality and comes in around $50-$55. One thing everyone I've seen from people that have bought these is that they are really high quality for what you get.
I would like to suggest you -Lattafa PRide ajwaa a 100% middle easter scent and quiete challanging - Gissah sava, Gissa imperial valley , arabian oud majestic woody intense and Musk mubakhar (these are high level frags not dupes )
If you’ve included Nishane, clearly Ege Ailaio from the same house is insane for spring and summer (i also like to wear it on days that i feel sick/sad or hungover in the winter since its so grassy/refreshing)! I dont know why people dont talk about it at all… I have a 50+ fragrance collection and still feel bad about using the juice because i like it so much. 😅
I really enjoy shuhrah. Also, a list i’d love to see is one of middle eastern fragrances that are “original” scents and aren’t dupes or heavily inspired by other designer or niche perfumes. To my knowledge i feel like shuhrah falls into that category? lmk if it’s a clone or inspired album and already existing fragrance.
On Middle Eastern perfumery, have you gone into the world of attars yet? I've recently discovered them and have really enjoyed the style and the history behind them. I've also really liked how affordable they can be compared to designer and niche stuff. In terms of brands, I'm based in Australia so I don't have anything near you to recommend but I'm sure there are heaps of small businesses doing attar in the UK
Discovering your channel made me think, ooh nice I can save money with these relatively cheap fragrances not knowing once you start, you just need to smell and either sample/buy everything! 😅 Not complaining tho man, great work!
I live for Shuhrah's opening, it's so amazing, but...I don't care that much for the dry down. The oud feels too synthetic and not robust at all. It's super loud and long lasting. Overall, it's not one of those I regret buying. That boi staying in my rotation. All I have to do is not wear it to the gym or work and I'm good.
Check out Enclave one of the best Mint middle eastern DNA, My favorite from the house. Nishane Tero is also very unique caramel salty and sweet. And Lyric man by amouage roses and incense very beautiful comforting and wearable
Have you tried LV Nouveu Monde? it has this opening saffron that I've never experienced in another fragrance. Can you comment on that specific smell? Would love your recommendations to alternatives.
@mohammadmuzamil1559 they've got some new collections this month. There's one called BULLET. To me it was like a mature twist to JPG la male and Dior Suvage. I really liked it
i think chopard is from qatar chopard oud malaki, is an amazing oud fragrance, comming from someone who normally dont like oud, the dry down is amazing definatly worth a look Chopard Black Incense Malaki is this smokey leathery fragrance that is super interesting. but are fairly cheap and highly reccomended
Highly Appreciate that arabian perfumes are growing in you. Try to work on fresh arabian perfumes which is an unexplored area in fragrance community. Take love
i thought that 45% concentration was a bit much until i bought a perfume from local dupe brand that has 70% for all their perfumes. if the sprays sticks on your clothes, you smell for weeks😂 Afternoon swim dupe last for over 12 hrs
I'd recommend Ace of Spades by Fragrance World. Much better dupe of By The Fireplace. Smoky and sophisticated version of Ameer al oudh but almost the same price.
weird, because i only smeels leather, oud, woody amber, and earthy buttery orris root in the opening and doesn't get any green throughout the end (maybe it's there from the orris root and i don't pick it up). i guess each of our nose is different xdd
Check out the house of Ahmed Al Magribhi from UAE, quality products at affordable pricing and getting some hype across the pond. They have some clones twists and original creations. Id love to hear your take on. marj Ignite oud Blue oud Azure royal (not blue which they also have)
Omar, plz oil up your head for a vid🥺
Ayo 💀
That is a a violation on maaaad levels! ⏸️
Why?
To improve the longevity of the fragrance?😁
Lmaoooooo
shine bright like a diamond

I just bought reflection 45
And Inshalla it’s gonna be my scent
For Eid next week ♥️
Shuhra is awesome, intense fruity tobacco and last forever too.....enjoying your channel Omar, keep em coming...
Great video and recommendations… I think you should do on your favorite "barbershop" fragrances, I just smelled Sartorial and I really enjoyed it.
iv been waiting for this video(best middle eastern perfumes).as always you nailed it
finally I'm all ears. I've been wanting a video on eastern fragrances so have at it Omar it's a whole new subject.

From Arabian Oud - Madawi Gold (Best feminine perfume I've smelt ever) and Diwan
From Gissah - Hudson 2, Imperial 2
Arabian Oud Sultani is an absolute masterpiece
I preferred Diwan over Sultani. It's a patchouli musky balsamic treat ☺️ Underperforming in the first few weeks. Gave it time to macerate and now it's a beast mode fragrance

I thought it too. Its 35 percent concentration so in realm of reflection 45
Al rehab's choco musk; i had been using the roll-on version casually even before jeremy recommended it in one of his older videos. Didn't know it was worth the recommendation 😃
i ordered this today! cant wait for it to come in
Can confirm Honor & Glory is very good! Speaking of lesser known Turkish houses, Emissa has some great fragrances.
Is it really feminine? Heard also in the dry down it becomes more woody and masculine? Can you confirm?
@@javed8238 it's basically unisex, but yea the drydown leans more masculine.

Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day
Ameer al Oud is something, definitely a head turner and great for winter evenings. If you like TF Tobacco Vanille

Thank you for sharing this story, I’m glad you like it so much! Much love to Barcelona also!
Great list as always Omar…I’m Egyptian too and I think we’re definitely considered middle eastern country as we speak our own dialect of Arabic
Very informative I've ordered Lattafa Ameer Al Oudh Intense can't wait to try it! also very curious about Rasasi Shuhrah,
I'm glad you're Egyptian too : )
Majd Al Sultan, Raghba and Raghba wood intense lean on the Serge Lutens side, I love them for what they are🙏🌟
Nice video. You should really try Ojar Wood Whisper and Infusion Velours. Great fragrances from UAE.
Shuraah is gem, highly unique
Maahir Black from Lattafa is a very interesting and unique one.

Raghba Wood intense is one of my favorite fragrances in my collection
If you think to buy the Honor and Glory, try it first, on my skin smells like burned sugar, but in the straps smells good!
qaed al fursan is like fresh pineapple sweet woody and almost herbal fragrance
It smells cheap though and it's very weak
@@umaydniassuh6511 Totally agree
@@umaydniassuh6511mine that was macerated for only almost 3 weeks lasted 6-8 hours on my skin tho. 🤔
For Arabian Oud , try Arabian Knight (Gold) , Bussma , Khaiyyal

Shurah its a beautiful perfum. 🔥
Sultan Vetiver is absolutely beautiful, had a chance to experience it... Beautifully crafted vetiver perfumery.
Ani is very, very nice as well
Great video as always!
Lattafas Qaa'ed is doing its own thing. Smells niche to me, so much is happening in it

You should check out Rasasi Qasamat line. My fav is Rasana.

Woody collection by arabian oud
Kaleemat collection.
Arabian nights.
Just a few old arabic classics
That Alexandria Fragerance buying guide needs to drop ASAP
You've just jumped down a very deep rabbit hole when it comes to Arabian fragrances 😂
Currently starting on an oud journey.
Discovering your channel made me think, ooh nice I can save money with these relatively cheap fragrances not knowing once you start, you just need to smell and either sample/buy everything! 😅 Not complaining tho man, great work!
Please make a vidoe of 10/10 Sexy fragrances. And 10/10 summer ones.
I have abraaj valor night iris a clone amouge interlude black iris, it's so strong, almost too strong I barely use it.
lattafa badee al oud sublime
Smells generic and cheap to me atm. Hopefully over time it may get better.
If you liked Lattafa Honor & Glory you should give their "Sublime" a try too.

Ajmal - Evoke Midnight edition. I love it. And its unique.

Enclave has a great opening! But then becomes a synthetic mess from the Amber Xtreme in my opinion 😕
Will check out the other suggestions though, thank you!
Day 11 of asking for Guerlain homme edp review
Could you do a video on affordable summer fragrances that you think are good
Try Rosewood by Arabian oud. Typical rose oud combo executed beautifully. Very expensive smelling.
Tobacco edition is 🔥
Lattafa's rave now line is good too
Have you tried LV Nouveu Monde? it has this opening saffron that I've never experienced in another fragrance. Can you comment on that specific smell? Would love your recommendations to alternatives.
Can you do a video on the loudest projecting fragrances please
Try Al Fareed from Arabian Oud. Also Kashmir Musk from them. I fell in love with both of them ❤
Al Fareed is a monster performer
@mohammadmuzamil1559 they've got some new collections this month. There's one called BULLET. To me it was like a mature twist to JPG la male and Dior Suvage. I really liked it
i think chopard is from qatar
chopard oud malaki, is an amazing oud fragrance, comming from someone who normally dont like oud, the dry down is amazing definatly worth a look
Chopard Black Incense Malaki is this smokey leathery fragrance that is super interesting. but are fairly cheap and highly reccomended
Great video! 🙃 3:38: I'd go for Lattafa Raghba wood intense... Both great!
lattafa's vintage radio is one to try, it's a clone of initio paragon and quite good
Can confirm this
I didn't like it at all. Too sharp and powdery.
try cafe by ecstopia and compare it to honor and glory, I have cafe and i love it but it reminded me of the sample of honor and glory that i had.
Just Jack make insanely good TF clones, eg Tobacco Leaf (Tobacco Vanille clone) and Vetiver (Grey Vetiver clone) are great
Got told I smell like old carpet while wearing ameer Al oudh. Never threw away a fragrance so fast in my life lol.
Omar I recently started to hike,can you recommend 10 fragrances best for hiking all seasons please
Check out Arabian Oud’s Arabian Blend line. Jabal Al Fil in particular
Should try Eros sage by ahmed M.
Amiri by Arabian oud
Bluebery musk by Arabiyat P.
All are amazing
Highly Appreciate that arabian perfumes are growing in you.
Try to work on fresh arabian perfumes which is an unexplored area in fragrance community.
Take love
I would suggest you to try Imperial Valley by Gissah Perfumes... It is completely different and unique...
i thought that 45% concentration was a bit much until i bought a perfume from local dupe brand that has 70% for all their perfumes. if the sprays sticks on your clothes, you smell for weeks😂
Afternoon swim dupe last for over 12 hrs
Try out these Marien Luxury Perfumes: Patchouli, Oriental and C'est la vie
You should review Daarej by Rasasi if you haven’t already! My favorite from Rasasi and one of my signature scents. Love it
Used to own it, I liked the idea but wasn’t a fan of how synthetic it was
@@SchoolOfScent I see what you mean it does come off synthetic at first. I find it settles down nicely on my skin though. And performs hella well
Rasasi SHUHRAH ❤️
Afnan Rare Carbon….I can brush my teeth with it…too godamn good…try it
I'd recommend Ace of Spades by Fragrance World. Much better dupe of By The Fireplace. Smoky and sophisticated version of Ameer al oudh but almost the same price.
"much better"? Nahhh
Ameer Al Oudh Intense is smokey and smooth too. And you get 100ml vs 80ml.
You HAVE TO try Abdul Samad Al Qurashi - Safari Extreme!!!
Marshoud 4 white by Atyab Al Marshoud. As far as fresh scents go, nothing like it on the market.
My Honor and Glory is about to arrive. Feels good about my blind buy.
howd you find it?
@@PinchyLobster From a local reseller. I assume you're not from our country so I cannot help.
@@jdmagtibay i meant did you like it or not. mine came today tho i think its amazing
Lattafa raed silver 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hey omar, i recommend Barakkat Satin Oud from fragrance world, a clone of mfk oud satin mood
Could you compare turathi blue with the black panther? Also maybe that new khamrah qahwa?
What do you think of shagaf oud by Arabian oud?
Lattafa Raghba Wood Intense and Lattafa Nebras
does Amouage Enclave work during the spring/summer season?
Montale amber musk 👍
All these fragrances sound very winter centric, are there good fresh, summery middle eastern fragrances as well?
Hawas Ice, honour and glory, turathi blue
It's time to delve into the clone Perfumery!
Do you think lataffa honor and glory is a safe blind buy?
Al Qurashi blend is 10/10
I believe you should check Patchouli by Two Mark
Interlude black iris comes off incredibly green and balsamic at first. Is that expected? Will maceration change that?
I haven’t needed to macerate it personally, it’s been fantastic from the get go
weird, because i only smeels leather, oud, woody amber, and earthy buttery orris root in the opening and doesn't get any green throughout the end (maybe it's there from the orris root and i don't pick it up). i guess each of our nose is different xdd
Odyon Scorpion Intense or Arabian Oud Amiri are pretty good
Check out the house of Ahmed Al Magribhi from UAE, quality products at affordable pricing and getting some hype across the pond.
They have some clones twists and original creations.
Id love to hear your take on.
marj
Ignite oud
Blue oud
Azure royal (not blue which they also have)
Türkiye and Egypt are both in the Middle East, so you’re not cheating at all 👍🏼
Excellent ,thanks.
Amouage reflection man smells like my grandma. Luckily I only bought a travel spray and I gave it away
