    get Mercedes Benz Club Black! i have MB B and Althair (10ml) fell in love instantly with Althair after my first sample . then i got MBCB as they reckoned it is possibly one of the best designers for Vanilla (my favourite) . MBCB is literally Althair doubled down on projection and minus 2hrs on longevity in comparison, but both have great silage. i was in absolute shock as i equally enjoy them both ( but one is €200 cheaper 😂
    MBCB
    Longevity- 5 sprays (6hrs). 8sprays (7-8hrs)
    Projection- 1hr of 2 arm lengths and then it sits quite close to the skin, but with a beautiful silage.
    big compliment getter if that’s your thing .
    performance (for me) increases when i heat up from activities etc.. giving me a little more longevity and projection.
    absolute steal for € 30

    Great Review. It's an incredible fragrance for the price. Not sure Althair is worth the $$$ for the admittedly richer and full bodied opening. Brun eventually gets to a VERY similar drydown. I'm subscribing now.

    This was my best purchase of 2024! fragrance world is putting out some bangers, I also have Azzure aoud blue bottle, and they just released cocoa morado purple bottle. Liquid brun is 90% the same and it is fresher smelling. Althair smells a little more natural if you smell it close to the skin, but in the air it's hard to tell the difference between the 2. liquid brun being fresher I used it in the heat in August and got nothing but compliments, its top notch! I also want to add, I have designer, niche, clones, fragrance world stuff smells higher quality when compared to other brands like lataffa and Armaf.

    First of all, thank you for the review. I really like your style and your accent. It makes it very enjoyable to watch. I can tell that you’re very genuine when describing how you feel trying the fragrance for the first time, not knowing how it smells. I also appreciate the fact that you don’t overhype things and you don’t sell codes to buy the fragrance.
    I had the chance to try Liquid Brun for the first time yesterday, from a friend of mine who purchased the fragrance a few months ago. I must say, I’m impressed. I’ve been very curious about Liquid Brun since its release. I’ve never smelled Althair, so I didn’t have anything to compare it to. I don’t know how to explain it, but Liquid Brun has something that made me keep sniffing my wrist all day. It’s one of the best fragrances I’ve ever smelled, from the opening to the drydown. I could detect some resemblance to Azzaro The Most Wanted Parfum because of the bourbon vanilla note, and something that reminds me of Mercedes Club Black. But other than that, it’s a very unique, sweet, gourmand, spicy fragrance. It’s a pity that it’s not available in Europe, and you can only buy it from dubious sellers or scalpers. If I find it for €60, I will definitely buy it. Could you suggest an online store where I can purchase it?

    • @VerityScents
      @VerityScents  27 дней назад

      Thank you so much for your comment :) I am so glad you found the video enjoyable, Liquid Brun is such a good find and I definitely recommend it, glad that you also enjoyed it when you sampled your friends, I know that it can be hard to get hold of some of the Arabic fragrance brands in Europe, I think a lot of the time you can get on Amazon but I know that they are not always originals, if I find an online retailer in Europe I will let you know :)

    Here’s what I learned about dupes/clones. They all tend to be fresher than what they’re cloning. That’s because it’s easier and cheaper to mimic a citrus note or accord.
    The raw materials used by big name perfumers are expensive, like $30 for a 4ml sample. That’s just an investment cloning companies can’t match.
    So what they tend do is buy the cheaper version of those raw material. As a result, 90% of the time you’ll find the dupes being close, but missing the nuisance, which is what makes the original special.

    Hi Verity!! I’ve been hearing so much about Liquid Brun, it sounds so good!
    I actually just used up my sample of Althair on Saturday because I wanted to do a full wear test and get my thoughts settled on it. At times I was smelling sort of a “chocolate orange” like the ones that break into little chocolate segments 😅 So that made me curious to go back and watch the video where I first sampled Althair, and in that video I had mentioned an orange Creamsicle scent.
    But the funny thing is, I also mentioned how the opening of Althair was so surprisingly fresh and spa like! So when you mentioned that freshness in the opening of Liquid Brun, I was like Wow! 🤩
    I’ve been so impressed with what I’ve been hearing about Liquid Brun though, it does sound like an awesome alternative! 🧡
    Lovely video Verity! ❤

      I disagree. To an untrained nose a clone is going to be close, but when you spend time with your fragrances you are able to pick up quality differences. I've bought many clones and funny enough I've sold every one of them off because it simply isn't ever going to be on the same level of quality.
