    Lattafa has been putting pressure on some middle eastern perfume houses, other houses have stepped up their perfume game. They are all serving topnotch quality nowadays

      Lattafa has also increased their prices a lot especially in UAE, the local prices here are higher than in USA, which is weird. This will make customers explore similar clones/ fragrances in other fragrance houses, I have already started exploring gulf orchid and Paris corner and have loved gulf orchid!!😊

    I think that Bayn Al Asrar has that funky note in the opening... I'm hoping that a few weeks of maceration will do for this fragrance to be at least similar to Guidance which is lovely, nutty, creamy.... a dream!

    I ordered Eclaire when it came out and it did not need maceration. It stayed on my skin until I washed it off. (Ten hours) Very very very happy with this purchase. I am a person that judges vanillas very harshly and this is amazing!
    I even like the bottle because it’s supposed to be melted caramel.
    Feel better Sim 💛

      I will wear Eclaire tomorrow on both my skin and clothes. Another user asked me to wear it on clothes coz it lasts longer? Regardless, I do love the scent so much!
      P.S. Your DP is inspiring me to get fit asap! ❤

    Eclaire is the closest I’ve found to Bianco Latte, lasts ages too. £50 here in UK and It’s worth every penny - longevity was there immediately upon opening and actually may even have the potential to become better than the OG as it’s a bit sweeter!

    Hi, I have 2 bottles of Bayn Al Asrar, Both my bottles are BEAUTIFUL from beginning to end… (which is why I have 2 bottles)… I do Not Smell any “bad note” or rotten fruits in the beginning, I think you may have a bad batch… It didn’t even need maceration, BUT, I agree it only lasts for 7-8 hours, so I am currently trying to macerate my 2nd bottle for a few months & will see if there is any difference in the lasting power after that.

    Sim! I'm so glad you mentioned that opening on Bayn Al Asrar, it's like a weird plastic note for me for a few minutes and then the magic happens! I would say it's definitely worth it to wait for the dissapation of that opening but I hope it'll go away! Also, question. I love Mystique Bouquet 💐. One of my favorites this year. Any other floral musky amboxan bombs in that price range from Afnan or any other middle eastern brands? It's just so good and now I'm dying to find another similar frag! Hope you feel better! ❤

So I have a feeling that i have received a bad batch of this perfume unfortunately. I will try and find more Clean Girl Perfumes for you babe and make a video. Clean Girl Aesthetic is not a strong suite of Middle Eastern brands though lol ❤❤❤

      @@SiminShaikh so weird how that works! That's why fragrances are so interesting to me, besides smelling amazing I think it's so interesting how different the same scents are to us! And I definitely know the clean girl vibe isn't really my fave either (I don't like really soapy or fresh things, more of a woody gourmand spicy sweet girly) so that's why I was a little hesitant on Mystique Bouquet but I love ambroxan so that's the secret sauce I believe! But, now I'm on the hunt to find something else that is like that, haha. Interested to try more Afnan, only other I have now is Cherry Bouquet 🍒 💐 Thanks for the reply! Sending love and good vibes!

I also have sjogrens and also reynauds, acid reflux and gastroperesis. But u will always get understanding from me! Flare ups suck. Cold weather doesn't help.
    1 question: i purchased Khair pistachio in July. All Iv smell is suede when I use it. will i need to wait longer for maturation than 3 months? I get no sweetness whatsoever. Also, i bought bright peach at the same time and i get a bitter peach smell and a masculine smell. No sweetness to it. Same quetion: does it just need longer maceration?
