    I recently got khamara after waiting for prices to go back down and I’d also got Angels Share so wasn’t in a rush for “similar” ….I was blown away by it. I prefer it (I agree they are different but cousins) I also recently got Lattafas honour and glory and that is also amazing too.

    I don’t know if i have higher expectations, but Kamrah it’s not a very good perfume. It’s just ok, not even a solid ok. I don’t get the hype . Most of the Arabian perfumes if not all are plastique smelling and cheap. And I’m NOT talking about brands like Amouage that are the top of the top to me, but Afnan or Lattafa. I literally have not even one dissent perfume to wear. Blind buy went wrong. My trust for some youtubers is gone.
