    Khadlaj is one of my favorite Middle Eastern houses 😊 They are rockin' the house lately ❤
    Thank you, awesome review! See you next time 😊😊😊
    I think I'm interested in the musk. I find with musk a lot depends on the dry down for me. I would love to hear your take on that.
    Have a fantastic day , Sim.

    I hate how prices are increasing on Arabic brands too! Another reason why I’m hesitant to tell people what perfume I’m wearing lol
    It’s like the more they get know the more perfume brands get confident in increasing prices unfortunately

    Girl, don’t ever apologize for your anxiety. A short explanation as to why you might seem excited. That’s OK but don’t apologize for anxiety. I applaud you for working through it and doing these great videos it’s really admirable . I suffer from chronic anxiety and I could never ever do something like this so thank you.❤❤❤

    Hello my dear! I'm loving your vibe, today. Tre chic! Yes, it's very annoying that prices are ever increasing, even in the Middle Eastern realm. Khadlaj is a house that I'm looking into a bit more. They need to get their stuff on Fragrantica! These two fragrances sound very intriguing, the white one, especially! How prominent is the rose there? I'm very squiffy when it comes to rose notes. 😬 In other news, I don't know if you've heard, but Lattafa has an original they released this week, Teriaq. WELL, the big news is that the developer of this fragrance is none other than Quentin Bisch!!! He is the nose behind Good Girl, Delina, La Belle and Guidance (I believe). This fragrance is a gormound with suade in the base. I blind bought this so fast. Should be here tomorrow. Cost was 54€. Which is okaaaay, but I predict prices will shoot up once word gets out. Is it available there? We will need a review! Just giving you a heads up!😊

    You made me grab some samples and gosh I’m in love! It motivated me to start my channel - That baccarat + Arabians Tonka dna is so spot on for Secret Musk. I am considering buying the whole collection tbh - but I ended up buying the OG Arabians Tonka on sale so I’m not sure secret musk has a place anymore!
    I also got Amber Gold, to me that was like noir de noir base but make it floral, woody, greener and that Jasmine went crazy haha! And I’ll confess I just don’t see myself picking up this over that personally, I’m not crazy about Jasmine! But gosh that red rose, black currant, inky oud dna is so addicting!
    I also got Karus Oud Fire which was so interesting - it reminded me of the same vibe as Majd! Not the same there were some small nuances but tbh side to side I struggled to tell them apart asides from the caramel and sweeter sugared tone that majd al sultan has and the greener more floral route oud fire has!
    But all of them are niche worthy- I think the pricing will go crazy on these for sure over time
    You’re always so amazing! Thank you for another video ❤❤❤❤

      Babe plsssss start the channel. If you are thinking about it, don't think too hard and just start. You are so beautifully descriptive and I am sure you are going to do an excellent job ️♥️ Please let me know when you do so I can follow back ️♥️️♥️️♥️
      Amber Gold is definitely veryyyyy indolic with the jasmine lol. I love me some jasmine so I don't mind it but I understand why it can get so overwhelming. Amber Gold is like peeling the onion layers, there are so many facets I discover every time I wear it. It is not an easy grab though for sure ️♥️
      I have not tried the Karus Fire but I feel I should now lol. See? You influenced me ️♥️️♥️️♥️
      Thank you my hun ️♥️ I cant wait to check out your channel ️♥️ Much love & light to you xo

    Just here to say you’re so right about the Amber Gold - I got Noir de noir but next to each other they’re not the same - I couldn’t crack this at all. Same as secret musk is exactly as you said - to me it wouldn’t scratch the itch of replacing Arabians Tonka

      It's unusual perfume and not a safe blind buy for sure. It's floral, balsamic with some freshness. The peru balm note is definitely prominent for me and that's the element that makes it unisex. I feel like would suit a man a lot but I see a lot of comments saying it's feminine so it's personal preference I guess.😊 It's very nicely made and long lasting for sure, with niche quality.

    😂 I had to rewind the review around the the 8:40 mark because I thought I misheard. Karus Secret Musk sounds lovely! And applicable to myself. 😆
    I ordered my first Khadlaj the other day. I settled on the Hareem Al Sultan Gold EDP. The oil got so much hype! Somehow I resisted ordering it. I'm hoping it works for the tropical vacation we have planned next month. If you have any tropical perfume recommendations please let me know!

    Hello Sim! Can you suggest some similar smelling perfume to Shaghad our tonka please? I know it’s a limited edition and I tried a sample and seemed to like it. Only few sellers have it in UK and they are for around whopping £60 to £70😑Also is it similar to Montale Arabian tonka?

      Hey my hun ♥️ Unfortunately no one else has created this DNA yet. It’s basically the same as the BDK Velvet Tonka.

I am just wondering if you were ever able to smell Khadlaj's Maison Epoque Artistique - I know you reviewed the others in the line, but I am interested in purchasing this one and I just want to make sure it isn't too masculine leaning. However, I can't find any good reviews!

    Those bottles are a bit Killian looking. I don't think it's a good thing how much Lattafa and some others are putting out. I tend to agree with CeeChronicles rant a couple of weeks ago that they may end up losing customers by pushing out the same juices in different bottles. I do want to sample the Lattafa & Quentin Bisch collab (Teriaq) even though it's already being compared to JPG La Belle.
