Here are my favorite M.E. fragrances in no particular order. 1. Khamrah by Lattafa. (a masterpiece) 2. Nebras by Lattafa Pride (a dupe for Eilish) 3. Kismet Angel by Maison Alhambra. (the best Angels' Share dupe out there, IMO) 4. Jasmine Wisp by Rasasi (stunning) 4. Casablanca by Swiss Arabian 5. Khatlaat Al Arabia Royal Blends. Gorgeous.. Smells like nothing else I own 6.Qasmat Ebhar by Rasasi....the cousin to Casablanca. 7. Ana Abiyedh WHITE by Lattafa. A fantastic Erba Pura dupe for under 20 Euros 8. Haramain Amber Oud by Al Haramain. Fruit bomb which lasts and lasts. So well blended 9. Badee al Oud Amethyst by Lattafa. An almost 1:1 dupe for Intio's Atomic Rose 10. Yara (original) by Lattafa. A vanilla, marshmallowy scent which is great for layering.
Wow thanks for sharing! 😊 I have 5/10 of your top 10. They are mentioned in my other Middle eastern videos. The rest I don’t own them yet so have to check out 🙂
I agree 💯 nd I hv 7 /10 from this list. I love them all. I also love Sakeena , Fakhar gold, Ameer Al oud intense, Infini Rose ( dupe of atomic rose), Shaikh Al Suyukh Lux addition, Jazzab gold by Ard al zaffaran, Modest duex by Afnan.
I have 2 bottles of Khalat Al Arabia Royal Blends on hand at all times. I get a pineapple blast at the beginning and the dry down is gorgeous. Lasts 8 hours or more, and I only paid 13€ per bottle. 😮Out of my 50 Middle Eastern Fragrances, this is in my top 5.
I love velvet gold, it’s def a dupe for GF Gold…on me it’s beast mode and long lasting!!! A little goes a long way, learned that the hard way 😅 Amber rouge, I have a love hate liking to it, it’s def a dope for br540 extract BUT it goes to smelling like burnt rubber if you spray too much then you’ll always remember that smell and it can really ruin a good thing 🤦🏻♀️
All the Orienticas look and sound dreamy! And I wanna check out Modest Deux and Khaltat Royal Blends as well! Thanks so much for another great Middle Eastern perfume video, Joanna! Loving all your recommendations!
Khaltat Royal Blends is very masculine and a bit sharp with no sweetness. I LOVE IT! I have had it for 4 years and it is still a beast mode. If you spray it 3 times, it has the potential to kill your coworkers.
@joannamercadoperfume I purchased mine from Dubai back when they didn't export outside the Emerates. They might have tweeked it a little to suit the Western world. It is defo a possibility. I have other new cheapies bought outside the Middle East, and they are all very sweet.
@@slaveyamihaylova5687 hmmmm.. that can be possible. I notice perfumes in Dubai are muskier too… Or maybe yours macerated for long already.. Anyway whatever it is, atleast we both love it 🙂
my fav arab fragrances in no particular order: 1. Nebras Lattafa, gorgeous vanilla and cocoa scent. SO good! will always repurchase. 2. Reyna maison alhambra - dupe for Oriana by Parfums de marly 3. Yara - delicious strawberry milkshake perfume, it's very girly and a pretty scent 4. Khamrah Lattafa and Qehwe 5. Bint Hooran ard al zafran - dupe for Good girl, I have both and they smell the same to me. 6. Kayali vanilla 28 - this doesn't need any explanation! it's STUNNING!! 7. Junoon noir by al haramain - the black bottle, it smells like SDJ 40 I'm so in love with this one, it lasts way longer than SDJ 8. Fakhar Lattafa 9. Armaf club be nuit - this ones a clean scent, it's a dupe for Chanel mademoiselle 10. Amber oud gold edition - fruity scent which lasts for days 11. Choco musk by al rehab - had to include this for obvious reasons 😍
While my first consideration in evaluating a fragrance to possibly purchase is the scent and performance - and have to send you a huge “thank you,” for mentioning the *bottle* - as when you suggested one brand over another brand’s dupe of Oud Bouquet. Please keep up the fabulous work - it’s so appreciate you!!!
I have Orientica Melodie and I have to say that the QUALITY is niche. It doesn't just smell like niche. Definitely impressed and need to get more Orientica for sure
Oriantica range is expensive in the UK . But these are looking dreamy to have. Bottles so so beautiful and perfume description sounds divine. I will buy one for a treat to myself. It 's nealy £70 at the moment for 100ml.
Hello! I think they are having a sale now. But yeah it’s more pricey than usual Arabic fragrances but in my opinion they are worth it when it comes to quality and packaging..
Thank you so much for your content, I love your reviews on the middle eastern perfumes. I'm just getting into them and I love them, I have bought 20 middle eastern perfumes and love them all. ❤
Hi Joanna , good video, I would like to see more of these unknown perfumes for women and men, because many other viewers often have the same fragrance brands that they show in the video, thank you, I will continue to follow you :) good luck and greetings from Amsterdam

@@jmercadobeauty I haven’t tried RM5🤣 but if there’s that metallic hint - I actually love it and find it unique, for me it’s leathery vanilla , cashmere
@@ScentualP I’ m satisfied with Rosendo 5 TBH but wouldn’t mind to try Shuyukh once I see it somewhere… By the way, I had a dream that you started your youtube channel and I was behind the camera 😂😂 It was so weird because I’ve only talked to you in social media.. Maybe it’s a sign for you? 😆
It is my first time watching but I think I love you already❤❤..I am a perfume addict ,I live in USA , but after watching you I plan to start collecting Middle Eastern Perfumes..Thanks to you😊
Great reviews of these! So, I have Al Haramain Amber Oud Gold and it is so screechy and oppressive to me, and I love a beast mode fragrance. I have and LOVE the purple Velvet Gold so much and have been curious about the Amber one. I’m hesitant because I also don’t like the OG Herba Pura much either. So you find this Amber Orientica a fruity vanilla lighter musk version? Has it changed and do you still enjoy it? Thank so much! (Too many fragrances to count and can’t keep decluttering 🤣)!
Hi Paige! For me it is exactly how you said it. Fruity vanilla lighter musk BUT long lasting. It’s not headache inducing compared to Amber Oud Gold. I don’t like that one as well…
Yes saw it but couldn’t find it available here in Portugal. I’ll wait for another friend to come visit from Dubai. Hehe To be honest I’m quite happy with OG Casablanca and will be happy to sniff first the flanker (in case the OG is better)
I picked it up too! It's amazing. I guess in the same genre as Angels Share maybe?? but I much prefer Essence of Casablanca to Angels Share anyways🤷♀️ ... i was able to get the tester for $35 on Joma... I also picked up Passion Of Venice and that one is just as good! It's in the same collection** ... there's 1 more that I am waiting to come back as a tester before I buy.
@@jmercadobeauty I just received Casablanca (OG) and it is great! But the flanker is just as good too! I may even prefer the flanker?? I dunno. Both are great. The Essence of Casablanca definitely smells like a niche fragrance though. I wouldn't say it's that close to Angel's Share tho... I know everyone wants to compare any spiced apple type fragrances to it, but there is more going on in Essence.
Orientica amber rouge, I must say ,surprised me, it is baccarat rouge on steroids..So much better than the original. I own the real baccarat, this is amazing...❤
Hello, I loved the video. I like cheap and good Arabic perfumes. I would like to know a good alternative to Ramon Monegal Flamenco perfume, as well as Straight to Heaven Extreme by Kilian.
@@whereisrish4816I've got that one it smells really good, very fruity like a pineapple and coconut scent to my nose, it LASTS FOR 9+ HOURS!! SOO GOOD! also there is no oud in it despite the name. 9/10
Hi i wanna buy the exclusive oud classic by orientica but i own Al haramain Gold edition and i don't know if it smells similar because i dont wanna buy a two scents that smell the same. Thanks
@@jmercadobeauty oh i see so which one from their line do you recommend. I want something thats beastmode but not cloying smells extremely seductive arrives in the room before I do

Thank you for covering Mohra. There's another fragrance I love that's similar but costs a fortune. I'm not sure if this is a real dupe or it or not.
Hey! Yes Mohra is niche quality to me 💯
I have it and on the dry down to me it smells just like BDK Gris Charnel
