I remember when ash wasn’t tying to profiteer on his videos by stretching them out saying the same things over and over - and actually put chapter marks in.
Love this idea BUT it would truly be great to see a more unbiased comparison by having someone rate the “real” vs the “clone” without that someone knowing which is which.
I just got the Lattafa Khamra yesterday in the mail and it is one of my best purchases so far. Never smelled angel share just got the Khamra due to hype and it was available. It has insane longevity to me. 10 hours later I woke up and still smelled the mid on me.
My cousin visited me recently and I got a whiff of it and I could telk wow this dude is wearing something hella pricey . later that night I asked what it was and I couldnt believe it was khamrah. Never smelled angels share or khamrah before a few nights ago and I immediately had to get a bottle of khamrah. Smells expensive and its so smooth in the air
@@MugiwaraYa.I have trouble judging projection as I am a light sprayer but I can safely say it’s at least moderate. Again I just put some on a bit before going to bed and I can easily still smell it on me after waking up 6 hours later. I’m wearing it more than my Xerjoff Naxos purchase lol.
When I got my bottle of Asad and sniffed the cap a coue days agi I was genuienly shocked because I really had to look for reasons to be able to tell it apart from S.E and the price diff is insane.
Swap in Oud for Glory for Amber and Leather to the third spot and bring Asad up to second and I am right there. The Amber and Leather would be fourth. Not a fan of Suqraat or Fakhar but do love the originals of each. Yes, I've bought them all as well and a few more but these are all just great add ons to a collection if you appreciate some clones' value. I'd love to see an examination of the Franck Olivier lines to see how other folks feel about them.
Recently got oud for glory. an amazing powerful scent but be careful because it can cause headaches . 3 sprays for me on skin is more than enough. If i want more than 3 then I would 100% spray it on clothing rather than skin
Smelling Elixir and Asad both side by side to me is almost like splitting hairs The real thing is slightly more potent but there are mini differences. Buy the clone unless you got the extra to spend on Elixir
I'm so glad i bought amber n leather from one of your previous reviews.. I rcvd it yesterday.. Its amazing for cold weather.. Now it is your wifey approved today.. We sprayed some a n l last night in living room and can still smell it today in room after 15 hours
Picked up oud for glory as a blind buy as it's so cheap, really really enjoying it! I've never smelled oud for greatness but it really reminds me of PDM Haltane! There's differences but same idea
Ash, you shouldn't let her see you spray it. Why don't she close her eyes and see which is better. I think that's the way you should do it or maybe you afraid that she will say the lattafas are better.
Lattafa fragrances are awesome great value for the quality I prefer Assad to elixir especially in the opening oud for glory is a beast and Lattafa Ramz black a great clone of ultramale
Oud for Glory is the real deal. Smells the same as Oud for Greatness and no one will know the difference. Incredible stuff! There is no reason to pay 10x for the OG.
I had wanted to buy the Oud for greatness for my bday but something came up so finally decided to buy the clone. I wore to work but nobody talked about it after a month now my work colleagues had to say sth about it. Me thinking nobody complimented me I use to overspray. After an 8 hour shift I pass by one of the females who just came in and her comment was “it is always you that leaves a trail of scent” with a smile
It's a Kool thing when you're a frag-head and you discover some smaller/indie brand that just resonates with you. For me it was years ago when nobody knew who GentScents was let alone Michael Malul and his fragrance company. I know the Jet Black Enigma is popular nowadays within the community due to Ash from GentScents but that's not even in my top 5. For aquatic lovers there's Ocean Noir. Gourmand - Citizen Jack Absolute EDP. For something bold and different - Agar & Myrrh. And my top 2 that I've been wearing since they came out and will for as long as they're available- Jet Black: Reserve and Jet Black: Platinum 🤘🏼
Smart man...married a southern gal... I do think she would have benefited from a blind test, but her descriptions and details articulated her true feelings and that makes me know that this is pretty accurate.
It’d be better if you sprayed them on smell strips and wrote on the back what they are. Then Mixed them for 30 seconds and took 5 minutes to come back and smell them. Then state which one you like better
My gf and I just discovered ombre leather and got my bottle yesterday. She wants a decant of it to keep at her house to spray a hoodie she kept. Im debating just getting her the amber leather or mixing amber leather with ombre leather in a decant so the ombre isnt going to waste being so expensive.
I've got the top 5 Chelsea rated: Khamrah Asad Oud for Glory Fakhar Amber and Leather Love them all - especially for the price ... still on the fence about Suqraat.
Sometimes the question isn’t “do they smell the same”. It can be “which smells better?” Sometimes they are different enough that I prefer the clone. Example, Mont Blanc Legend over Fierce.
You should compare TF Ombre Leather with Lattafa Velvet Oud. That is the best clone from Lattafa for Ombre Leather or Tuscan Leather. It's like 95% similar to the original, and the performance is beast mode.
6:28 Lol actually someone told me that he was wearing silver mountain water by Creed I confronted him that he is wearing Armaf clone and he admitted that he was wearing the clone! I know that he is cheap so that was the giveaway! nothing wrong with that but I'm cheap too, but don't stretch it far
I love how I can instantly pick up on that southern accent as a southerner myself that your wife has. Great review btw, I love to see womens perspective on masculine fragrances.
I wish many Lattafa fragrances were carried on other discounters such as fragranceX or fragrancenet. I was able to get a hold of rouge the BR540 clone and that smells amazing. I just ordered Oud for Glory and I’m excited. FragranceBuy seems to have nearly every single one, so I’ll have to wait when I’m willing to buy 5 fragrances to get free shipping lol
I think it might be an acquired scent but if you like the Oud for Glory you should try the Lattafa's Bade'e Al Oud Amethyst (same bottle as OFG but a deep purple color) Its become one of my top 5 scents! Its a sweet boosie rose scent that just smells so appealing! Give it a try, think it's at $28-$30 on Amazon right now!
As in any court of law in the world, her judgement is considered non admissable because it could potentially be flawed and biased!.In this video a statement/opinion from your wife doesn't count, is not 100% unbiased because when it comes to tastes and preferences she really knows what tickles your bone my friend ! Point aside , I really enjoyed your review ☝️👍
Hi Ash! Have you sampled Lattafa 24 Carat White Gold? I received my bottle a few days ago and I really like it a lot! I’m trying to figure out if or what it is a clone of? Thanks and be well!
Idk if you’ve done this but a blind smell test of the most popular clones vs official fragrances would be nice. Of the initial spray and dry down. Something a kin to Gmm blind tests
I am glad that I found this video because I was in the ma near my house and the person there was trying to sell me the imitation version of the oud the first cologne you had but for 150 dollars almost did it but something told me to wait
Always fun to see Chelsey on the channel. I'm not big on clones, so I don't have many but allow me to comment on the ones where I have both the OG and the clone. I have both Oud For Greatness and Oud For Glory and they're so close on skin, they're barely distinguishable. Greatness is a bit smoother but in the air, no one would be able to tell the difference. So Chelsey was right on with that one. I have a first batch bottle of Angel's Share and Khamrah smells nothing like it. I totally disagree that they smell alike. The bottles are similar, the color of the juice is similar and they're both sweet but that's where the similarities end. I get no booziness from Khamrah and none of the oak barrel woodiness. And Angel's Share in the far drydown has a smokiness that develops on my skin that Khamrah is missing as well. Khamrah does smell great but to my nose it doesn't smell anything like Angel's Share. Similar styles but not similar smells.
I got Khamra too and I say you either are lying or dont have Khamra at all. Khamra definitely has booziness and its a one of the best frags I ever bought! 24h on skin and more then 3 days on clothes!
@@bogdagt Yeah, I'm totally lying. I've everything to gain by posting my opinion of the fragrance here on UA-cam. Khamrah smells nothing like Angel's Share. I own both and I have don't give a flying F*** what you think about it. You detect booziness, great. Do you even know what Angel's Share smells like? I own an original batch bottle of Angel's Share and Khamrah ain't even close.
When it comes to an original fragrance vs a clone because most (98%) of people out there are not into fragrances like us fragrance geeks therefore they won't know the difference in quality and ingredients used from "A" fragrance vs "B" fragrance or how close are they from each other!. Just spray on the fragrance you can afford and that smells really nice to you and to others and you'll be JUST fine, I know this by experience!.On the other hand if you are a perfectionist and rabid fragrances collector and have the $$$ to spend then go out and knock yourself out!!!!

Totally agree, c'mon Ash, let's see you accurately pick the 'real' vs clone. I think you'd be on the mark, but would love to see that...
@@mrcherrytits I’m so sick of these, whenever there is 1 reply to a post, you know it is one of these scam messages, they’re everywhere.
@@jmarsh22 true not only UA-cam but also tik tok and facebook
Exactly
I was thinking also the dry down, cause there's we're the clones are most close to smell like the original!!!
It would have been better to do a blind comparison and see if she can detect which is the clone one then rate it based on that😁
Lol that’s an amazing idea, but it’s going to break a lot of hearts 🤣🤣🤣
That seems like the only way this should have been done. If she knows which is which, it’s pointless
I thought the same thing.
FACTS
I feel like she’s already really familiar with all these perfumes so it’s unnecessary.
Would love to see her do this with other houses. Really appreciate her perspective as neither a complete amateur or pro

He said he wouldn’t provide he’s opinion but as the video progresses he does, you can tell how much he loves perfume. 😊
Love it whenever Chelsea joins and the twist on the original idea for this video was PERFECT. Thanks so much!
Lattafa Fakhar is amazing! May not be an exact YSL Y clone but still close, and incredibly versatile too
Fakhar smells same as y ysl edt intense they are very similar 98% i have both and i can tell they are almost identical
@@jorgeortiz1532 exactly... I like using it for layering with my bottle of Y to get more mileage out of it

Love it when lady scents makes an appearance. Have a happy holiday!
I sprayed on a Lattafa scent, went for a swim in the Caribbean and could still smell it for hours after I got out. High quality stuff, clone or not.
Recently got oud for glory. an amazing powerful scent but be careful because it can cause headaches . 3 sprays for me on skin is more than enough. If i want more than 3 then I would 100% spray it on clothing rather than skin
Smelling Elixir and Asad both side by side to me is almost like splitting hairs
The real thing is slightly more potent but there are mini differences.
Buy the clone unless you got the extra to spend on Elixir
Couldn’t agree more. I actually have both but I choose to buy Elixir because I support Dior for siding with Mr Depp
I asked a girl to choose which one is better and she chose lattafa.
Hah, Assad must be better then. Elixer is TOO potent!
What's the performance like on the lattafa?
@James Haskell Excellent. Catching wiffs 7-8 hours after applying.
I'm so glad i bought amber n leather from one of your previous reviews.. I rcvd it yesterday.. Its amazing for cold weather.. Now it is your wifey approved today.. We sprayed some a n l last night in living room and can still smell it today in room after 15 hours

You can tell she watches his videos alot because they project each other's personalitys so well
Lattafa asad is a great fragrance for the price! I bought it today and absolutely loved it!!
Projection
Longitivity?
Ash, you shouldn't let her see you spray it. Why don't she close her eyes and see which is better. I think that's the way you should do it or maybe you afraid that she will say the lattafas are better.
The best SauvagenElixir clone IMO is by Alexandria Fragrances - Ete Sauvage. It has staying power and never drifts...almost 1:1
Chelsea looks Amazing Respectfully💯
Blind testing, my son and wife both liked Amber and Leather better than Ombre Leather.
Lattafa fragrances are awesome great value for the quality I prefer Assad to elixir especially in the opening oud for glory is a beast and Lattafa Ramz black a great clone of ultramale
Oud for Glory is the real deal. Smells the same as Oud for Greatness and no one will know the difference. Incredible stuff! There is no reason to pay 10x for the OG.
lasts 1 hour and 2 seconds

@@endritism2424 no Arabian parfum really last a lot...
Should have thrown Kismet/Tuxedo in here! Great video, though. Definitely appreciate your wife's perspective on these.
i like ash's face expressions when his wife rates the juice
I got a package for you 😏
Great video! Now do a Paris Corner one!!!
Should have also done Lattafa Woody Oud vs Tom Ford Oud Wood. and Lattafa Kismet vs Tuxedo.

BEST COUPLE IS HERE AGAIN

Keep ‘em coming with Armaf and Rasasi as well
... and Afnan ...
Love when you two do videos together 🔥💯
2:35 , 6:43, His reaction. LOVE IT MAN!
Lovely video. I hope you will test Lattafa velvet oud which is a clone of Tuscan Leather
It’d be better if you sprayed them on smell strips and wrote on the back what they are. Then Mixed them for 30 seconds and took 5 minutes to come back and smell them. Then state which one you like better
it's great when your wife joins you Ash!
Always!
My gf and I just discovered ombre leather and got my bottle yesterday. She wants a decant of it to keep at her house to spray a hoodie she kept. Im debating just getting her the amber leather or mixing amber leather with ombre leather in a decant so the ombre isnt going to waste being so expensive.
Just give her the real deal 🤝
Never mix two different fragrances together in the same bottle especially if they are clones.
Man, your wife is super cool!
I love how organic and unpretentious her voice is: she sounds authentically Southern.
Too bad your comment is so pretentious then.
"Organic and unpretentious" lol
Hello Ash and Chelsea, how are you guys? I'm digging the video. LATTAFA is doing well. We need more of these kinds of videos. Stay safe brother
As a Carolina native, I love the southern accent!
Hy you must try... Velvet Oud by Lattafa, I've heard that it is the clone of Tuscan Leather by Tom Ford.
Yaay Chelsea is back
So, just purchased Lattafa Asad and waiting on a mail haul. Appreciated the review, based other reviews you have done. I felt it was worth purchasing.
Hi, are you satisfied with it ? How long does it lasts ? And projection ? Thanks
@@eddynelsondeugueumomani8024 The Projection is decent and Longevity is 8 or 9 hours on my skin.

Love them all - especially for the price ... still on the fence about Suqraat.
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try these fragrances and have a blessed day
Great vid again Ash. Would like to see her do blind test and choose what she likes, dislikes, thinks is the clone etc?
We really like watching your videos and my wife enjoys them a lot when your wife Chelsea does them with you!👍
Great reviews! Thank you Chelsea, great input 👍
I like this approach
When u tell the name of the fragrance or let them see the bottle it takes away all objectivity the response won't be natural
Sometimes the question isn’t “do they smell the same”. It can be “which smells better?” Sometimes they are different enough that I prefer the clone. Example, Mont Blanc Legend over Fierce.
When you two get to 25 years, write a book on "How to stay Married"....the chemistry you too have is just fantastic!
Khamra all the way baby. I swear 3 days after spray I can still smell it clearly on clothes! The scent is to die for and beast mode longevity!
You should compare TF Ombre Leather with Lattafa Velvet Oud.
That is the best clone from Lattafa for Ombre Leather or Tuscan Leather. It's like 95% similar to the original, and the performance is beast mode.
tnx for savin me a lot of time in search of their comparison, it really helped.
