I have not tried YSL Babycat but I absolutely LOVE Rifaaqat. I'm on my second bottle now if that says anything. Nice and black peppery with that smoked vanilla and cedar are AMAZING. Definitely like it better than Nayel Queen. It's good too but Rifaaqat just has more depth. I love it.
Maaaaan, ROSS!!! I just sprayed this on my skin and liked it so much I bought the rifaaqat adorn like you mentioned to me in the livestream yesterday. Holy crap this stuff is good. The quality of the glass bottle & atomizer is insane for the price too.
Just got mine in today, great rec, thanks Ross! Looking forward to comparing it to Babycat, which I was lucky enough to score this morning on FragBuy…couldn’t believe it was in stock!!
The original Babycat really is THAT good. I got my bottle after smelling an impression and I had to have it. Once I smelt the real thing, no joke, I ordered another bottle. I can’t be without it. I’ve ordered this one so I can wear it with reckless abandon haha. I’m a lady too, and I love smokey, unisex vanillas!
@@ultraviolettas I love it! I wear it all the time! It’s not as peppery as the original and it’s more vanillic, but it is delicious and very much has the essence of the OG.
@@graceleathers5970 I’m glad to hear it’s more vanillic! Do you get any teeny tiny sense of musk? I HATE musk. And would you say it’s more feminine or masculine than the OG? I’ve been looking at Rifaaqat and Frenetic Delicieuse all week and am about to bite the bullet, my fate is in your hands 😅
@@ultraviolettas I would say there’s a faint sense of musk, but it’s not a note that’s listed. Also could be my skin bringing it out? It is certainly more vanillic! I’d say because it’s more vanillic and less peppery than the original, I’d say it’s more feminine, but I’d describe the original as perfectly unisex. I hope that helps
I’m so glad that I came across this video. Thank you for this review! I was looking for this fragrance everywhere and could find it. You are the man!! Now you need to do the same for Suits from Fragrance World.
Hmm... when people buy BabyCat on your recommendation and then discover that Rifaaqat is at least 90% close but less than a tenth of the price, do they thank you later? 😁
Damn... So happy I watched your channel... This fragrance is damn good. On paper it smells already good but on skin just delicious. And it performance like a beast. This is the best "clone" I have ever bought. I own 4 other Paris Corner fragrances and they are also very very good. But this one again is the best - a 10/10.
@@sajalgoswami1217i have and its an amazing dupe. Very long lasting and woody. I bought another bottle for my sister as gift this Christmas. Youll never regret getting one. Its Emir Rich Santal
Just got this in the mail today. Sprayed some on a test strip and was like meh, I don't get the hype... Then spray it on my skin and oh my I was happy!
@@lukaspriest and I did end up getting this dupe. It really is spot on. 98% dupe. It's fantastic. No other dupe that I've tried came close. (I tried 3 others that didn't work out)
lol you don’t understand how much weight your word holds. Ive blind bought quite a few based on what you said about it. I’d love to hear your thoughts on Nayel Queen in comparison to this.
Great review! I used your discount code to purchase a bottle of Emir Rifaaqat. What a great price for a 100ml. Initially, I didn't like my sample of Babycat..the leather note was really strong to me at first sniff. I let it sit for about a month, and tried it again...I love the scent now.
Happy Monday Ross… I ordered a bottle Sunday morning based once again just off of your take and reaction to the scent and note breakdown. Your taste and mine are very much alike. Great review and I can’t wait to get my bottle and the 7 other fragrances I purchased. Have a great week and keep up the Packing! Lol, I know you can’t wait to get to Florida…

Could you already compare it?
Would you say they are similar? Looking for a clone can’t get a bottle since they discontinued it

Rifaaquat ain't no joke.
Bought 2 bottles because I had to have a backup before the price goes up.

Do you have le Labo santal 33 dupe by Paris corner? If yes, then how good is it.

Damn. Already sold out. Please keep us posted when they restock, I want to grab it. Keep up the great content bro!
checked today and it doesn't look like it's out of stock. I'd check asap
@@ThePhoenixx2012thanks bro.
@@chief0282 lol I’m a girl. But you’re very welcome! Hope it helped☺️
@@ThePhoenixx2012 my apologies. Thanks for the info. You were right, it was available on the website and I bought it. Thanks
Got this and it’s a very nice sent. I have no other vanilla like this, I really like it. Not too sweet.
I have a decant of Babycat and it is PHENOMENAL. The best vanilla-based fragrance I've ever smelled. I am a female**
I understand this is unisex, what's your take on a bloke wearing this?
@@lukaspriest it would be super sexy on a man. It is the type that would make your woman nuzzle up into your neck for sure
@@lukaspriest and I did end up getting this dupe. It really is spot on. 98% dupe. It's fantastic. No other dupe that I've tried came close. (I tried 3 others that didn't work out)
@@lukaspriestI say it leans more masculine
What's happening Ross the Boss? I'm definitely going to try the Baby cat clone. Thanks for the info
Despite this having a different scent profile from nebras.
Is this better than nebras ?
In terms of pulling in more compliments
Nope not at all . Is very leathery and manly
Perfect review. I just ordered a bottle. I can’t wait to get mine
hows the fragrance?? lmk lmk lmk
Is this wearable for spring and summer nights out? Also, how are longevity, projection and performance?
Watch the entire video, and all of that is answered
smoky vanilla you say?? Bet.
Smokey leather is what I smell, I don’t smell vanilla.
lol you don’t understand how much weight your word holds. Ive blind bought quite a few based on what you said about it. I’d love to hear your thoughts on Nayel Queen in comparison to this.

How do these two frags compare? Is Rifaaqat close?
So did the leather note calmed down on riffacat? Because I just got mines and I’m struggling with the leather strong note

You won’t be let down. It’s beautiful!!
Ordered this and Camaro which is now back in stock and used tltg10 and $aved
You are going to LOVE Camaro! I'm wearing it tonight and it is HEAVENLY!
Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day
This stuff is awesome. High quality, best Smokey vanilla fragrance I own.
Does it smell like burnt rubber and gasoline people are saying?
Would Mercedes-Benz club black smell similar to this too?
I just ordered this im excited and i enjoy spicebomb extreme ☺️
Oh please tell did you like it?
@@ShaikhMaaz.I’m a female and for me? Not my favorite, too leathery and Smokey for my like. I say this is more for men
Just got this yesterday and I love it ❤
Great job Ross
Happy to hear that you got the pronunciation down
It reminds me of Spicebomb extreme from Viktor & Rolf.
Can you make a comparison?
Thanks 😊
Did you try Nayel Queen?
Rifaaqat is good but Killer Oud Midnight Ecstasy is best from PC.
Your pronunciation is spot on pal.
I smell a lot of leather, i don’t know if I like it, I’ll come back to it after I let it sit a while. I don’t like strong leathery scents
@@mariapizarrosath8147 update
Update?
is it a manly scent?
I can't find it let alone buy it and I really don't want to pay those outrageous prices on eBay
YERRRRRR !!! I gotta get this one
You be having the Gems !!!!

Nice review I'm going to try this one love the video Ross stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way good luck on your move

@@native7876 its actually really good but something i'd only wear in the winter
He gave it a 9!!!! Wow

@@NomNomNom100Fun This is more complex and better (imo)
It is so so good.
I want it!
Great stuff Bro
Glad you enjoyed
Damn 9/10
Better than Lattafa Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold?
I LOVE Shuyukh gold. Seems it’s been discontinued. Just ordered Rifaqaat can’t wait to compare.
@@zackyamuke7600 I have both now....and they are 2 different scents (maybe some similarities bit not redundant to have both). Love both 👌🏻
@@zackyamuke7600 and, what's your thoughts ?
This sounds great! I’ve only tried one other inspiration
what have you tried?

I haven't
If you like Gourmand try Paris Corner emir frenetic delicious. Also French Coffee is good too

Hello Ross this is Latonya love your Channel
