Why dont you review al Qiam Silver from Lattafa? Its probably the best EDP clone of Tygar from Bvlgari. Its probably amongst the best fragrances from Lattafa fosho. It literally smells like grapefruit soda
I'm wearing this in the New York City humidity and it is a banger and compliment getter. I've had it on for the last seven hours and it's still kicking in the humidity 🔥🔥
I bought it smell AMAZING. Longevity is also days long. I noticed that if you spray up straight up from the bottle; I did 5 sprays. You go nose blind really quick. Coincidentally, I bought a 8ml high quality travel spray bottle with a micro mist ”because the scent didn't last". So instead of spraying from the perfume bottle, I filled up my nano mist travel bottle. I did 5 sprays, and I was smelling myself the whole day. Even my clothes smelled like cedarwood, incense, and black currant days after I sprayed myself and my shirt sat on my dirty clothes basket. Wow, I'm blown away.
Thank you for the 9am Dive performance comments. My skin chemistry is very anti-fragrance in that most scents last for less than 4 hours, I like to spend my money on fragrances that last longer than 8 hours (which would last about 4-6 hours on me). You rock, bro!
Same I have rarely rarely ever had anything over 12 hours Fahrenheit Parfum is one of the few I can think of but yeah "Dylan Blue lasts all day" yeah right 6 hours max if I skateboard for 2 hours it is barely there when I get home. I run hot and I am in South Florida even indoors they go bye bye very fast on me but outside forget about it nothing lasts more than 6 hours on me outside maybe Rasasi Shurah and their very similar freshie that smells like just the aquatic and rose bits Nafaeis Al Shaghaf. Problem is they are so piercing they are hard to wear for that long so lose lose for me, less is more with those I have found.
Usually Afnan performs better after maturing a bit. You can keep it in shelf and give it another try after a month or 2. Looking forward for a re-visit review on 9 am dive.
I already have Fakhar and Hunter Intense. HI performs very well and smells wonderful, fakhar smells great but not as strong (but still good performance).. 9am Dive grabbed my interest when it first dropped, but glad I didn’t pick it up. Think I’m pretty well set up for blues that have much better performance.
I blind bought this and tried it today. Also, not impressed with the performance. Get about 2 to 3 hours at most. Had to keep reapplying throughout the day. 9 PM in the black bottle lasts me all day and night and was hoping the same for this. Also, this does not smell blue or aquatic to me as it is marketed. Unless you consider apple, patchouli, ginger, sandalwood or jasmine to be aquatic. It is more of a sweet fruit and woods type sent on me. I guess I shouldn't be surprised but it also seems to have DNA from 9 PM/JPG Ultra Male. I guess it shares the apple, patchouli, etc. It was cool here today, so I'll try it again next week when it's going to heat up and I'll see if it does any better before I decide to keep or toss.
Good review as always 👍👍 The ginger note is what I like most about Halloween Man Hero. Seeing how this performs for you currently, I'll be happy to stick with it instead of the bellyflopper.
Not middle Eastern but Davidoff Cool Water and Dolce & Gabbanna Light blue are always my go to freshies. I've heard good things about Al Haramain Amber Oud Bleu Edition and Azzaro Chrome United
Also heard good things about amber oud blue. On my list. And chrome United is on the only ones missing from the series. Thanks for watching Taryn, good to see you as always
Afnan Highness III Green is one that got hype early and is often out of stock on the discounters.And when it is in stock it's almost $70. I'm very curious about it but also hesitant to buy that when with the same money I can get 2 $30 scents. The last time I was gonna pull the trigger I ended up getting Varvatos Artisan Pure and Rochas L'homme instead
Hey! Wow, such a let down! I was ready to blind buy this one once price drop to reasonable level (almost 50$ here). 4 hours is unacceptable for me. Now I'll have to sample first or wait for warmer months. One question: when you take the bad performance out of the picture, which would you choose rating only by the scent quality and profile: Cdnim Iconic or 9AM Dive?
That's a tough one honestly because both scent profiles are nice. I'm leaning iconic, only because I've gotten compliments each time I've worn it. But 9AM is nice still, just lacks performance for me
@@PostCologne for now both are same price in Europe so maybe I'll go with iconic. I have Amber Oud Bleu Edition though, not sure i need another BDC clone :P
Typically I love Afnan's products. From your review, and few others, and what has been said about performance.. I'll pass on this one. Yeah your reviews are spot on!
I feel like locking this one up till summer hope it gets stronger. Got this with lattafa maahir legacy and that Colonge smokes this. Best blue lattafa is sumou platinum BDC /Dylan style clone 💪8 hours plus too.
Buy fragrance cause it smells nice getting 9 hrs for a 35 buck fragrance getting more than 6 hrs a big bonus I've had frags I didn't smell after 4 or 5 hrs but someone could still smell
@@PostCologne cant wait cause olmeda is a fusion of a few blue fragrances too and i picked up a bottle the performance sounds way better than this one too, think youll love that one!
Should I buy this, Halloween Man Hero, Fakhar Black, or Versace Man Eau Fraiche? Actually, I'll buy two of them. Which should be my first. And which second?
@@EgorKhaklin Haven't touched it in a while...Will check now in few days and get back to you...but I feel better to go for iconic...more depth , 8 hrs longevity ...
post chingon! thanks for this hermano I was gonna blind buy this one just off the hype.. sounds like a good scent but for the $40 I guess I would just get a couple others or the iconic p or the untold from armaf to answer my fav blue is still and will probably be Versace Dylan blue, then maybe light blue from d&g, and the prada luna rossa/carbon form the eastern houses man hmm.. I got fakkar, final edition(more green to me), hunter intense(lots of compliments), and tag him(to me it's so so but got lots of compliments from females)
I put a good amount of lotion on the parts of my skin that I was going to spray this on and I easily got about seven hours. Even into the fifth hour people still were commenting on it.
Its fragrance is way too generic even for blue style fragrance and getting that slight incense at dry down like dylan blue... Not getting good performance as well but iam allowing it to settle for around a month... Let's see
Najdia is a banger and beast mode for the price. I get 8+ hours from 4 sprays.. najdia is basically hawas , hayaati and invictus aqua 2016 in one bottle
I startet to wear it again. Wheater is getting warmer. Not buyworthy. Weak performance. As you say, there are better 😉 35 Dollars is too much for this fragrance. It's not worth it. 20 or less ok.

I go nose blind to Cedrat Boise in 5 minutes but those two above and others like it I can never stop smelling why lord why?
Thanks for your honesty, this has been gathering some hype from other reviews. Sounds like it's definitely one to avoid
Just speaking to my own experience. All I can do. Up to the individual if they want to try it out

I think it will be suitable for our country since the weather is starting to get hot like summer.
Could be. May do better in warm, humid climates. I'll be trying again in the summer too

@@leszekro9522isn’t that the most expensive one
iconic is disgusting. Cheap smelling. You can smell the bad quality of the synthethical top, middle and base notes right from the beginning.
Its very good, but its not a very strong performer as people say it is.
It gets lost even on clothes.
Typically I love Afnan's products. From your review, and few others, and what has been said about performance.. I'll pass on this one. Yeah your reviews are spot on!

Thanks. Will buy a new bottle of Hunter Intense;)
Love your channel bro. Are you based out of Toronto?
Thanks so much Naf! No I am out West
Is this similar to Abercrombie First Instinct Together? I heard both are very close to YSL Y Live
Got a decant of this when it first came out and it’s good but wasn’t full bottle worthy imo. BDCish vibes with added aquatics and citrus.
Similar thoughts for me as well
@@PostCologne Great review as always bro 🤙🏼
Appreciate it M.G 👍
Hello perfume friend, which scent lasts longer? The Afnan 9am Dive or the Armaf Club de Nuit Iconic? Greetings from 🇩🇪
Club de nuit but if u buy go to club de nuit limited edition is don’t have alcohol like the og

Wayyy longer
