Interesting selection Ifi...I've been trying to get my hands on Canale Sport with no luck. Hopefully, as you said, it will soon become much more available. Would love to try Lattafa Najdia as well. Great content as always. Thank you!🙏💗🙏
Thanks for posting Ionut, I love your videos! Happy New year to you! Hello from Minnesota. I blind bought Dirham based on your reviews and like it a lot. Do you have any favorite citrus fragrances - that have good performance?
I never get compliments on my niche, only my cheapies! Weird. Not that I am comfortable with compliments anyway, but it just proves that cheap in price, doesn't have to mean cheap in quality. Thanks for the video, Ifi.
I do admire how you manage to convey very clearly that this is from "Your" personal perspective. Also, I appreciate your straight forward opinions. You don't mince your words, yet you still remain so respectful.
Last year I decided to start shopping and try out some of the eastern frags and I was not disappointed. My top 5 complimented fragrances of 2018 was 1- Legend By Al Haramain : Armaf Craze was my signature scent until I got got my hands on this hidden gem, It smells so much better than Craze, seriously I had compliments left, right and centre. 2- Daarej By Rasasi Overall attention grabber and you will be complimented, dry down is beautiful. 3- L'Aventure By Al Haramain ; Another clone of Creeds Aventus, to me it surpassed CDIM. I stopped using CDIM after its reformulation again the dry down is great. 4- Armaf's Skin Couture Metallica ; Compared to Dior Homme, which I own I'd say it's about 85% similar pushing 90. Regardless it smells wonderful and projects for 3-4 hours. 5- Midnight Oud By Ard Al Zafaaran ; Interlude clone, smells really nice though be careful on he trigger as i think anything after 3 sprays is going to be somewhat offensive, it's not to everyone's taste and I'd say it's definitely a winter frag. Imho beast mode projection and performance it lasted on my leather jacket for about 4 days. Have a great 2019 Ifi, here's to more frags and further growing this great community 🍻
Ifi, I am really enjoying your reviews. I have many fragrances, but I have just discovered middle eastern fragrances - now I want to try them thanks to your advice. It is a bit overwhelming since there are so many choices. I just received Armaf Craze and Armaf Shades Wood is on the way. I have had some difficulties locating some of these brands, many unavailable on Amazon. other online shops, and even eBay in the US. Keep the bargain scent reviews coming bro!
Superb video ifi, we are lucky enough to be able to get fragrance world scents in the UK. I have 3 of them and I think they are excellent especially the brown leather (tuscan leather clone). Canale sport is next on my list. I enjoy dirim too but my girlfriend wears it more than me as it is very unisex and leans more feminine. Keep the cheap lists coming I'm loving them.
Ifi “Dark Rebel” it’s the best of John Varvatos you should try, it’s very masculine excellent. Notes: Jamaican Rum Absolute, Cuban Sugarcane Accord, Davana Essence, Cardamom Absolute, Cleary Sage Enriched Essence, Black Leather, Fir Balsam, Nutmeg, Black Pepper, Styrax Absolute, Tobacco Leaf Accord, Mexican Blackened Vanilla Bean, Akigalawood, Cade Essence, Castoreum, Balsawood.
Am just here to say Najdia by Lattafa is the truth. Really like it,lasts forever and with good projection.Passes as an all weather fragrance,don't put more than 1 spray.iT is potent
Today I smelled many perfumes! Blue of Chanel definitely one of the best! After the dry down... there was Mercedes Benz perfume that was nice! And the Jimmy Choo that was great! Forget about the new Bvukgari Man ... smells like baby’s powder (after the baby poop in it) ! I want to have a Chanel but only own about 30 fragrances ....
u're from Romania? cool.. but I can't find any of the fragrances you recommend over here..I ordered some Aventus clone oil from the site you recommended in another video, but so far the order didn't arrive (>1 month).
Pls bro do more video on middle East brands like lattafa ardh al Zafran ajmal rassasi Al Harmain Abdussamad Quraishi Arabian oud etc etc but in low price pls As here in Oman we cant get easily french perfumery but middle Easy brands Hope you understand
Definitely want to try the last two. Reflection Man is very nice better than Le Male as for Canel you've mentioned this one before so i will certainly look out for it and the Avon one too. Good to know you're in the UK, lot's of Romanian people living here now, great people.
Jovan White Musk is an Eau De Cologne but performs surprisingly well. It is a summer fragrance or an indoors fragrance and I usually get 5-7 hours with it. Good projection!
@@TAIL313 yes, I wore it today actually lol. Its pretty good (for the price) and does smell pretty close to the chanel ones. Longevity is also pretty good! For the price I would recommend.
Cody K sorry mate, i'm from UK myself. We have those middle-easterns shops here and there across country - one opened in my city recently. But usually i buy them frags of Ebay. Check on Ebay or Amazon, i believe you would be able to order from there. On Ebay check for listings outside of your country too, so you would be able to buy from sellers that shipping worldwide.
Cody K You welcome bro. Most of my frags of arabic brands are blind purchases, because been bought before that shop opened and i could get my nose on them. Well, people like Ifi introduced me to them and convinced me to try them out at all. So far from couple few i tried myself (and bought after!) I really like Oud Isphahan (by Ard Al-Zaafaran too btw!). I don't really know how good it projects, never tried to test it out, but even if it is scent for yourself and don't projects far - this one is really nice frag, woody-spicy-rosey, great to wear it in bed with your wife/girlfriend or romantic dinner in restaurant😀👍👌. As far as i understand, it is similar to Dior Oud Ispahan, but as i do not own latter, i can't compare how close it is. Cheap price means you can have a small atomiser with you and reapply whenever you want even if it won't last too long on your skin. I could smell whiffs of that on myself after 6-7 hours, so longevity on my skin is above average. I yet to visit that shop for a closer look, but those Ifi pointed out are all great. I have Najdia by Lattafa, Dirham Silver, Oud 24 Hours, Oud Isphahan, all by Ard Al-Zaafaran, Kun Mukhtalifan by can't remember who 😆. Armaf Craze (astonishing smell and performance). Armaf's Le Parfait , Rose Wood, Tres Nuit - i got samples. All great frags, not a pinch worse than western designer and even niche brands. I don't even know what to buy next, my wife probably will kill me if i buy another one anytime soon. Not because they are costly, they are dirt cheap actually (apart from top-tier houses), but because i have full shelf in cupboard now.😃 These arabic frags i mentioned are some more adapted to western noses, and most of them been reviewed by Ifi already😃. I yet to find some spare time and have a closer look in that shop, just working 5days a week don't leave you with much time for leisure at all.
Thanks for the list, you have a very original channel with original picks that are usually all affordable and good scents.
Thank you bro! Happy New Year!

My point exactly. My sister once pickes Cuba Royal from a bunch of fravrances also with niche and designers

Thank you very much Robyne! I try to remain myself and not become commercial, even if that means slower growth of my channel

Thank you for confirming the greatness of Lattafa Najdia

I get lattafa najdia and I get 4 compliments In 1 week of waring it
Surprised not to find cdnim in the list. My most complemented fregnance.
Ifi my friend please reply, what are differences between ard Al zaafaran najdia and lattafa najdia?
Nice videos man! Great work. Regrets from Mexico!
Howdy Sir and have you tested rasasi Royale? How would you describe this one?
Today I smelled many perfumes! Blue of Chanel definitely one of the best! After the dry down... there was Mercedes Benz perfume that was nice! And the Jimmy Choo that was great!
Forget about the new Bvukgari Man ... smells like baby’s powder (after the baby poop in it) !

Before watching the video i had already given thumbs up...

Happy New year ifi☺️...pls do Lonkoom perfumes review

Nice
Does Najdia have the aquatic vibe/egg smell as the Invictus Aqua?
I love these lists Ifi. I started buying perfume oils because I trust your nose. My taste is similar to yours. Have a great day my friend.
Definitely want to try the last two. Reflection Man is very nice better than Le Male as for Canel you've mentioned this one before so i will certainly look out for it and the Avon one too. Good to know you're in the UK, lot's of Romanian people living here now, great people.
Love the british, Mike. They are so polite, well mannered (when not drunk 😅) and smart!
I olny find najdia silver is it the same ?
Happy New Year Ifi & community!
Happy New Year Robyne and all of the fragrance lovers out there!
Guys I found najdea similar with stronger with u by emporio armani !??????? Anyone else!??
Unusual choices, most I've not heard of. The Allure clone certainly has me intrigued.
Wild Country by Avon is a great lavender fragrance. Great review my friend! :)
I'd like to try that one, my friend!
Thanks for stopping by!
Nice Ifi...nice as always
Hey ifi. Try Armaf odyssey.
Plz do a review of Rasasi vs Armaf
Not a bad idea at all! ❤️
@@ifishares i think rasasi is better plz do it
You didn't mention the performance on number 1!
Jovan White Musk is an Eau De Cologne but performs surprisingly well. It is a summer fragrance or an indoors fragrance and I usually get 5-7 hours with it. Good projection!
@@ifishares no ifi im talkin about the canale sport allusive lol. I just made a purchase on ur word lol.
@@henchdan1 did you manage to get the Alussive sport fragrance. What are your impressions, longevity etc? Thanks
@@TAIL313 yes, I wore it today actually lol. Its pretty good (for the price) and does smell pretty close to the chanel ones. Longevity is also pretty good! For the price I would recommend.
@@henchdan1 Right it's on my wishlist. Thanks for the quick reply, much appreciated!
