I grew up in the MENA region so I was exposed to middle eastern fragrances more than French ones as a kid. You are right, youtube just scratched the surface; there are so many. You pronounced Burooj correctly the second time (bu-rooj) it means Towers. I like Swiss Arabian as a brand but one of the most popular brands that very few youtubers talk about is Abdel Samad AlQurashi or ASQ for short. They used to run so many ads in Arabic media in the 90s and 2000s so its seared into my memory. Another is the brand Asghar Ali from Bahrain but that one is smaller and difficult to find online. Attar is niche middle eastern brand , never tried it but heard its good. Another niche or luxury one is Arabian Oud which has flagship stores in literally every big metroplian city I have been; NYC, Paris, London. Rasasi is my mother’s favourite and it has some serious gems if you explore the brand and it has been around for ages so they have a very large collection. The La yuqawam line means “irresistable” and I am looking forward to trying those. personally have AlHaramain perfumes (amber oud line 😍) , SA shaghaf oud, Swiss Arabian Fadetik (got as a gift, very pleasntly surprised at the smell, woody amber unisex scent that is soooo addictive) and Badi el oud from Lataffa which is a dupe for oud for greatness.
Hi there! 👋 Thanks for this extensive comment and for sharing the pronunciation of Borouj! 💖 I have Oud for Glory - very nice dupe for the Initio. I will check out some of the other houses you mentioned and DEFINITELY want to check out Arabian Oud the next time I'm in NYC! 🙌🏼 Thanks so much for watching!
I've noticed so many perfumes shooting up in price over the past 2 years! I really think we're experiencing a perfume boom like we had in the 80s and early 90s. UA-cam perfume reviews have boosted sales! Ty for your videos!
I think this seems correct too. I used to watch a ton of beauty UA-cam channels and none of them mentioned perfume and suddenly this year I’ve seen almost all of them begin to make a couple videos about fragrance and/or posts about perfumes.
They’re shooting up because all the reviewers are hyping them all up! Rose 01 used to be so affordable $30 and under now it’s over $100 because it’s a Delina dupe. Absolutely ridiculous. Then there’s all the vintage fragrances that are now hundreds because they’re getting hyped
Thank you for sharing these! I have loved middle eastern frags for their lasting power! A few I wanted to share that I have enjoyed: Armaf Legasse for her has been a total surprise-it’s a fresh bougie shampoo, fresh apple blossom, citrus w/ warm vibes almost akin to DG Light Blue but lasts and lasts and truly EVERY time I wear it I get compliments, so it projects well. (My family also comments and loves this one.) Armaf Katarina Light Blue is a clone of YSL Manifesto eclat … it is a banger that lasts and lasts! Very comforting caramel vanilla for crazy price! Armaf La Rosa is great copy of Le Vie Est Belle … I have both and truly you can’t tell them apart. Just got Futura La Femme and it’s so new there’s not much info on it but it seems like a copy of PDM Delina… sharp rhubarb and rose litchi combo that lasts forever (I’m trying to decide … I’m not fully a fan of Delina and so didn’t realize when I bought this 😳 so I’m testing combos w/ it to see if I can deal🤣) I have Eternia and love it and Le Parfait is a pretty floral, slightly warm, very ladylike scent that I can’t decide on possible clone? I have several Al Haramain -L’Adventure Femme is a great clone of Creed Aventus for her (I love this w/ Mancera Sicily to add tiny sweetness and brightness) and Lataffa Pure Musk is a great clean, calming white musk for layering or bedtime. Hate to make this too long… but if you’d like middle eastern men’s frags that my hubby and I have LOVED let me know ! ❤️🥰 from Dallas
Hi Paige! Something tells me you love Middle Eastern fragrances! 😁 I've tried a few of these and they are all wonderful. I own L'Aventure Femme - a beauty! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and recommendations. People scrolling through the comments love to see other suggestions. And yes, would love to see your men's picks! 🥳
Try Oud for glory, you can buy it for around 30-35 but it really smells almost identical to Initio Oud for greatness which is one of the best men’s fragrances imo
Thank you for the long comment 😅 So many recommendations to try. I'll have to retest le parfait and legasi for women sometime, I didn't like them for some reason I now can't remember. I do love legasi for men (platinum egoïste dupe) and wear it whenever I need that crisp freshness that men's scents do so well. Of course the packaging is trash 🤣 I'd never heard of the Katarina line before but now I'm intrigued. And I just might get Eternia due to all the glowing reviews. So far I have 3 Armaf scents and only one has been disappointing (could just be an issue with my bottle though because everyone else says it performs great). Armaf is a solid affordable house, I should check out more of their offerings.
You have a humble way of approach when it comes to fragrances. I love that you’ll try high-end and everything in between but keep the same enthusiastic tone. Maybe it's a New York thing, but most people here are down to earth.
Thank you kindly! 💖🥰 My philosophy is that I wear what smells good. Period. I don't use fragrance to prove social or financial status. I appreciate your comment. 😊
You’ve got an amazing middle eastern fragrance collection, Veronica!!! I agree with you - they’re overall fabulous and give many designer (and some niche) a run for their money. Loved this overview!!!💜💜💜well done!!!
Thank you for this video. I only know and own European fragrances (mostly French and English!) and I have felt a bit overwhelmed to try Middle Eastern frags, so this is a great reference point 👏💜
LOVED THIS VIDEO! It’s been super into middle eastern fragrances lately so this was a treat. I love Afnan Ornament (it’s very similar to Olympia Intense). And Choco Musk - it’s smells like a powdered donut to me! I’ve been dying to try Jasmine Whisp & curious about Swiss Arabian Florence. My next buy will be the Amber Oud Rouge!
Amber Oud Rouge is wonderful. I've heard great things about Ornament also. I have the Choco Rehab oil and use it for layering also. 💖💖💖 Thank you soooo much!! 🥰
I love how matter of fact you are with your picks. Great video. Btw: I have TF Tobacco Vanille and I have AH Amber Oud Tobacco edition, on my skin they smell identical, which hurts a bit...actually alot...when I recall how much I paid for TF. I'm kind of obsessed with AL Haramain at the moment.
Thank you Sharri! 🥰 Yes, it is painful when you find a more affordable dupe for an overpriced fragrance. And this is coming from a Tom Ford fan over here! 🙌🏼
I am addicted to the drydown of Afnan's Supremacy Purple (which lasts forever; on clothes, it will stay on for weeks after washing, and it will just cling to the air in my bathroom for about a week) and Ard Al Zaafaran's Aroosat al Emarat (which is an absolute compliment getter for me, really sensual and feminine, something that men really seem to love on me). I received my bottles of Swiss Arabian's Hamsah and Al Haramain's Rafia Gold (not the perfume oil, but the EDP) today, and I can't wait to get my nose on them. :) By the way, I love your delivery. You remind me of one of my favorite true crime UA-camrs, you both are very effortlessly funny. It's not easy to be informative and entertaining at the same time while just looking into a camera, and you do it really well.
Hi Peanut Forever! 💖 Thanks so much for your kinds comments, you are too sweet. 🥰 Sounds like you have some great Middle Eastern selections. It's always lovely to get compliments on whatever we're wearing. 👍👍👍
Just received Eternia and you were right my friend what a Vanilla I got about 9 hours of it. Yessss and yes yes what a Vanilla😱I’m going today to find some gems from your list I forgot about this video! Got my list Thank youuuu🙏🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Hi Veronica, you look fabulous with this stunning hair style and the makeup. I am so excited you dedicated a full episode for Middle Eastern perfumes. You second spelling of Borouj is correct (means towers the symbol of Kuwait, hence the caps of the bottles.). Maahir launched their new fragrance (for ladies).. same bottle but clear glass and golden horse head, the smell is hypnotizing. Rasasi La Yuqawam line (means Irresistable) has 6 different scents, my faves are Jasmin Whisp, Orchid and Amber. There are some huge very reputable perfumers in Bahrain and I would suggest JUNAID established in 1920. Love from Bahrain.
Hi Fatima, thank you soooo much! 💖 Yes, I've been wanting to do this for a while. And could not feature all of them - it would have been too long. Okay, you have convinced me to look into the clear Maahir with the gold top. I considered purchasing. Thank you also for the recommendation to check out JUNAID! 🙏💖🥰
Wooow, you’ve got bangers there🤩😍👌🔥💨. I would love to get Borouj, I have seen the red bottle on eBay but I’m a bit nervous to buy on there😱😱. My list has also grown from Shaghaf Oud, Cassablanca, Club de Nuit, Her Higness Red, Rare Tiffany, Ornament, Ornament Purple, Modest Deux, Larnie (Dolce Amalfi), Lush Cherry (Lost Cherry), Dirham Wadi, Amber Oud Gold to Ameer Oudh Intense😍😍. I decluttered Oud For Glory and Club De Nuit Intense Woman. I would love to get Amber Oud Tobacco, Azora and I’m waitlisted for Rasana. Middle Eastern fragrances are extremely popular in South Africa because they are way affordable than your mainstream ones👌👌. Great collection as always. Stay gorgeous😍😍.
Hi Pinkie! 💖 Borouj Gravity would be a good one to add to the list. And you have quite a wishlist there! Some fun options on your list. About eBay, it can be very hit or miss, depending on the individual seller. I can see the Middle Eastern fragrances being more affordable than mainstream. Hope you get your wishlist soon! 🥳🥳🥳 Thanks for watching! 💖💖💖
Hey Veronica 🙋🏻♀️ I have and love Lataffa Raghba, Ard Al Zaafaran Dirham Wardi, Al Haramain L'Aventure Femme, Borouj Gravity, SA Casablanca, SA Ghadeer, Jasmine Wisp and Wisal Dhahab. They're all great! 🥰❤
I do not have a problem with the brand of perfumes but for me middle eastern fragrances can be quite a problem. I do not enjoy Oud in fragrances at all and most of them have Oud or woody notes. But i am willing to try them and i found a few outstanding. For me Al Haramain was the house that surprised me a lot and i love it. My favorite is Junoon Noir and Amber Oud Tobacco Edition. Honey and Cinnamon. Love it.
Hi Diana, yes, a lot of people are not keen on oud or woody notes. I understand! There are many like Junoon Noir that steer clear of those. I'm glad you found a few that interest you! 🥳 Thanks for watching 💖
Orchid Prairie from Resasi reminds me of playdoh. My first reaction and wear it last year Christmas Dinner and everybody did told me also it reminds them of the Playdoh we used to play in Philippines when we were young. So it's nostalgic smell. Love it!
I recently got and love Asdaf Majd al Sultan. It’s like a less loud Tobacco Vanille with a middle eastern vibe. This was is a love. I also just got Rasasi Sotoor Waad which I’m enjoying.
You have an amazing collection and love your recommendation. I do have some of the fragrance- Alharamian, Swiss Arabian, Lattaffa and Ajmal and you were spot on with the description and longevity. I need to try out the Her highness collection and Borouj. 👌🏾 nice video
Hello Nkiru! 👋 Thank you, so glad you enjoyed the video and agree with the descriptions. The Highness collection is wonderful and so are the Borouj ones - especially Gravity and Modernity. 💖
I love my middle Eastern fragrances! This was a great video since there are sooooo many out there and very little reviews on them - thanks for doing this !! 😍
What an amazing list, thank you! Taking many notes ✍️ Some favorites in my nascent collection: SA Sehr Al Sheila, SA Shaghaf Oud Aswad, Lattafa Sheikh Al Shuyukh Luxe, Lattafa Oud Mood. Just talking about them makes me want to go sniff them 🤤 xo
Hi Sara, thank you so much! Your collection is gorgeous already! Gosh there are soooo many amazing scents to explore - it's quite a rabbit hole! Thanks for watching 💖 Check out Orientica also - all beautiful.
What an incredible list my love so many I had never heard of I’m gonna call you my Middle Eastern queen your collection of Middle Eastern fragrances is incredible 😍😍 Wow, much harder to get for us here in Canada for sure but it’s great to find out which ones are good since there isn’t that many reviews online 😍
Aw thanks Moraima! 💖 Fragrancebuy.ca sells many of these if you are interested in ever trying some. There are so many to experiment with! Lots of gems! Thanks for watching 🙏
Beautiful collection! I fell in love with middle eastern fragrances years ago when my husband was still in the military. Amber Oud Rouge is amazing! I need to get my hands on Khaltat Night! Dammit LuuLuu!🤣
Fantastic video, thank you! Just found your channel and enjoying it very much...I am in the market for so.e new fragrances and have been studying the Middle Eastern for a while..Great resource to refer back to..
I've been hoping for a video like this. My husband was in UAE for a long time and now I will consider ordering stuff for both of us. He already knows what he likes.
Yes, I have most definitely had my eye on some of these! Gonna have to go ahead and put in an order! Great video! You look amazing with the blue eye look and blue sweater!🥰 Hope everyone is having a great week!🙂
Hi Veronica, thanks for this video! I don’t think Middle Eastern Fragrances get as much love as more mainstream frags. I have Rasai Sotoor Seen which is beautiful and I just blind bought Miris Sulit, not sure if it’s a middle eastern brand..but it’s beautiful. Khalaht Night is always sold out on fragbuy so it must be good. I will definitely be checking out some of your picks.
Hi Vanessa! I agree - this segment of the perfume market doesn't get the love it deserves. Thanks for watching! Yes, Khaltat Night can be hard to get a hold of (probably because it's having a big UA-cam moment). 💖💖💖
Okay so... I purchased Yara and Ajwad by Lattafa. I wanna do a cartwheel but i cant lol. These smell delicious!!! I am a Big fan of Musk and Woody scents in my perfume.🥰
Hi Veronica, Carolina Herrera Confidential fragrances is Middle Eastern collection. I will venture into some featured. ❤️ your Collection, Great review💖👏🏾
Miss Veronica, Really enjoyed your reviews. You have a fabulous collection and now I don’t feel so bad for having a massive collection myself and still researching and acquiring even more……my list of to buys is ever growing……hard not to do when you have ALL of these fabulous niche scents…..the various houses, collections, etc. I like to switch it up and will grab for whatever my mood/vibe is……like music. I got bored with my designer collection and delved into this world of intoxicating perfumes……and I LOVE musk, amber and oud…………so…..hello….I’m in heaven and they have great projection, spillage and longevity. The prices are fab and the quality is there if not better. I never write comments but had to reach out because I would love to pick your brain. I subscribed and will watch for more. Much thanks, kimmy
Hi Kimberly! Same here. So many wonderful options to explore! The list to try continues to grow and grow. And Middle Eastern fragrances are a world unto themselves with so many interesting choices! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💖🥰😊
🤣Vampire lord 🧛♂️ omg you have so many goodies! I want more middle eastern gems and you exposed me to some that I’ve never seen before. Love this video Veronica thank you for sharing these 💗
Interesting collection👍💐I have Rasasi and Yara. Then Ana Abyedh from Lattafa, which they say is dupe for BRouge.I think it’s more for winter but quite nice. For office I use Dirham Wardi from Ard Al Zaafaran, light but nice.
Thanks for doing this. I have a few love Madinah and Wisal as they last all day. Yesterday I unboxed Maze from Al Haramain on my chanel. So suprising a new rose for me 🌹🌟
You look beautiful, my friend! Middle Eastern fragrances intrigue me, and your description of all of these has me thinking I'm going to be spending some time reviewing this video and making a list. YAY! I LOVE A LIST! I also love the music in the background. :)
That sweater color is lovely on you! I love your eyeshadow and how it goes with it! I get overwhelmed when I start to shop for ME fragrances because there are so many, just like you said! I've ended up with a long list that I have no idea how to narrow down, haha. 🙈 This video was helpful though!! 🤗
Thank you so much! 🥰💖 It can be overwhelming shopping for fragrances in general. I suggest checking out Fragrantica reviews and looking in the "reminds me of" section for comparisons. I found that very helpful.
Hi, Veronica! Have you tried the Wisal in the silver bottle?? I have it and LOVE IT. It is a fresh version of Wisal very similar to Montale Dark Purple. Absolute LOVE.
Hi there, I have not tried but have been tempted. I have never smelled Montale Dark Purple. I'll look both of these up - thanks so much for the recommendation! 💖💖💖
Hi Veronica, thank you for this amazing video. I absolutely love middle eastern fragrance. Do not know how I missed this video. Please do another one? Have a great day.
Hi Kathleen! 💖 I'm so glad you enjoyed this video. I have another one on amazing dupes that has some middle eastern fragrances featured. Maybe check that one out. 🙏
This is such a great/useful video for someone exploring oriental fragrances like myself👍. I think I might blind buy Qasamat Rasana if I can get my hands on it. It sounds amazing 💕. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on these fragrances.
wWOWw! I wish you could see how the color of the "juice" in Ameer Al Oud intense looks like water in comparison these days! I Waited too long to grab it
Great video!! You’ve got a lovely collection. I have a few that I am enjoying myself. On your recommendation, I’ve also ordered the Roohey Tehebak. Can’t wait to get it. There are indeed so many gems to be found in Middle Eastern fragrances. Another one from the Al Haramain line I have, is Rawaa, which smells delicious too. I also got wind of a house called Ne’emah, also in the Middle East. In particular, a fragrance called Laya. The reviews on it here on UA-cam piqued my interest. I couldn’t find the fragrance anywhere around me (I live on one of the Caribbean Islands), but I found the oil and ordered a 12 ml sample of it….. it is stunning!! Smells heavenly and lasts ages (as in many days) on my clothes and at least 10 hours on my skin! I’m now on the hunt for the fragrance, but will pick up at least a 100 ml of the oil asap😅. Anyway, thanks for the informative and entertaining video. I subscribed immediately 😁! Stay safe and fragrant!
Hi Yopsi! Welcome to the channel! You'll love Roohy Tehebek. Gorgeous one! I have Rawaa in my online cart! Al Haramain makes stunner after stunner! 💖💖💖 Is Laya available on Amazon? Does it have a floral motif on the bottle?
Hi Veronica ! I hope you’ll Consider doing a list of long lasting EDT fragrances . It will help us and those that are new to the fragrance world that thinks EDP is always the most long lasting and as I am Learning it’s not always the case. Anyway, just a suggestion! Have a good one and thank you!
Veronica! I listen to you talk about some of your favourite fragrances, wait, favourite anything at any time. I really enjoyed this. I'm surprised that you picked up your Borouj scents for such an affordable price, they've gone up. Don't sleep on Borouj! I still have my middle eastern fragrance journey ahead of me but got a great start with your decant of Rasana and picked up that and the rest of the line. Great video! ✌🏽🧜🏼♂️❤️
Oh snap - I don't know if I told you but I tested His and Her highness decants that you sent me at the same time for a workout at the gym! Y'all, once my body started heating up, the scent was just vibrating through the whole gym or at least felt that way. I was choking folks out! 🕺🏼
Yeah!!! Thanks Richard. I'm glad you're starting to venture into Middle Eastern fragrances. I want them ALL!! Sooooo many gems to explore, but only so much time and skin to put them on. 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you hun for this video, what an amazing list! I've purchased Ruhy tehebak from your recommendatios ages ago. As I used to own the YSL Belle D'Opium. (Still have the bittle !😢). But the scent is linear and not beast mode. Then again who cares, it ticks the box for the scent, for me to enjoy.😉 Will you do an updated version of this list ? Thank you once again, beautiful lady. 😘💕👋
Great Video, i am so glad i am not alone in this boat, i find myself telling people a lot about middle eastern fragrances, i travel to Dubai often and i cannot tell you the JOY of stepping into the market scouting for perfumes, 😁 Thank you for introducing these fine fragrances😍
Lol I can’t believe I missed this video until now ♥️😂🌹 I love so many rose fragrances, I have a couple of middle eastern fragrances. I’ll try most fragrances as long as it’s feminine 👌 I like spicy but not masculine 🤗 but I like that houses have a variety and not limited to just men or women .
Hi Debbie, these are not middle eastern, but I highly recommend Casbah by Robert Piguet, Laudano Nero by Tiziana Terenzi, and L'air Du Desert Marocain by Andy Tauer. I can't think of any of the Middle Eastern fragrances that feature incense but not oud or woody notes - perhaps another viewer can weigh in.
I love your collection!!! Try Majd Al Sultan by Asdaaf if you get a chance! Its spice, smokiness and saffron.. has a bit of BR vibe mixed with by the fire place.
Excellent middle eastern collection review...I have many Ajmals, AL Haramains, Lattafas, Rasasi and other artisinal attars from the middle and far east...I think Middles Eastern fragrances are so under the radar and I don't mind that at all bc that way not everyone has it. That sounded selfish but oh well...lols
Yesss girlfriend! Still crushing on qaaed!😍😍😍😍Definitely one of my most outstanding Middle East fragrances. Opulent musk as well. These are definitely highlights for me. 😆😆😆Maahir is a tough one! It’s not safe and very different. Nuclear is it!
I recently tried Khalrat Nights but returned it since it's nearly the same vibe as Le Bain by Joop! I prefer Le Bain for the tobacco note and super affordable.
What a great video …definitely put some of these on my list only discovering Fragrances from the Middle East ….I purchased Halfeti …an English fragrance house but the fragrance was very Middle Eastern inspired and fell in love with incense spice and an oud that is done well ….now I am on a journey can you recommend a fragrance that has that incense church vibe to it ….as Much as I love Halfeti it’s Hella expensive…!
Hi Mary! Thank you so much. Are you referring to Penhaligons Helfeti? So nice. For that church incense vibe, I recommend L'Autre Oud from Maison Lancome. And perhaps Casbah by Robert Piquet gets close enough. I'm sharing my oud and incense video in case it might be helpful in your search: ua-cam.com/video/1MAp6OMnhcU/v-deo.html
Barouj Gravity has been on my list, but I've added just a few more. Great round up. I know I stalled doing my video too because there are so many and more to add and another and another, lol. Great video💜
I think you would at least "like" Borouj Gravity. Yes, these "round up" style videos can be stressful! 😂 I'm always worried I will forget a really important one. We can always do an updated video later, right?!
hello. beautiful eyes. i have on rotation Amber Rogue and Gold ; Saving the Jasmine Wisp for Spring ; want to add a few more, thank you for the suggestions.
I have the original Club de Nuit for women. OMG, that fragrance is incredible. Maria from Canada and I think Chris from Perfume Nest recommended it and I bought as a blind buy and man, it's a sexy scent that I was a little concerned it would be too heavy. However, in the end, I have to say, it's a compliment getter, so I know I shouldn't be afraid to wear and enjoy it!!
Veronica, hey sweetie! Yes, I’m coming back to this topic again lol I have a question, Between the junoon rose and the original junoon, which one is sweeter ? I only have the rose one but I adore it do much was pondering picking up the original. Which do you prefer out of he two and why? You are my favorite UA-camr to go yo about middle eastern fragrances 🥰👌♥️
Hi Danit! 💕 Thank you for the kind words! Of the two, I prefer Junoon Rose slightly more as it has the almond and floral touch missing from the original. The original is a more clean baby powder and baby oil kind of smell. I like the original very much but my family thinks the powder is overwhelming, so Junoon Rose wins this round for me. 😂 Hope this helps!
Please share YOUR favorite Middle Eastern fragrances down below! ⬇️ Thank you for watching! 💖

Thank you! 💖🥰 Oh my, how did I do on pronunciations? Not too good if you were dying laughing at me! 😂😂😂
You’ve got an amazing middle eastern fragrance collection, Veronica!!! I agree with you - they’re overall fabulous and give many designer (and some niche) a run for their money. Loved this overview!!!💜💜💜well done!!!
Absolutely! So many gems to discover if we venture beyond the usually hyped fragrances. Thanks for watching and suggesting Roohy Tehebak! 🥳🥳🥳
I don’t have too many but I do love Kalemat Black from Arabian Oud and Club Nuit Intense 🥰
Beautiful collection 🤩
Club Nuit Intense is a great choice! Never tried Kalemat Black - I'll need to look that one up. Thanks for watching, J! 💖💖💖
No denying it, Middle Eastern fragrances have lasting power. A little goes a long way. I was impressed with quality of the Amber Oud line .
Yes indeed! The Amber Oud line is 🔥 🔥 🔥 Thanks for watching Sammie! 💖
I agree if you truly love perfumes it should matter where it comes from , it just just smell good and you love it.
Exactly. Lots of good stuff out there to try and enjoy! 💯
Thank you for this video. I only know and own European fragrances (mostly French and English!) and I have felt a bit overwhelmed to try Middle Eastern frags, so this is a great reference point 👏💜
So glad it was helpful! I understand the feeling of being overwhelmed. 🥰
LOVED THIS VIDEO! It’s been super into middle eastern fragrances lately so this was a treat. I love Afnan Ornament (it’s very similar to Olympia Intense). And Choco Musk - it’s smells like a powdered donut to me! I’ve been dying to try Jasmine Whisp & curious about Swiss Arabian Florence. My next buy will be the Amber Oud Rouge!
Amber Oud Rouge is wonderful. I've heard great things about Ornament also. I have the Choco Rehab oil and use it for layering also. 💖💖💖 Thank you soooo much!! 🥰
I love how matter of fact you are with your picks. Great video.
Btw: I have TF Tobacco Vanille and I have AH Amber Oud Tobacco edition, on my skin they smell identical, which hurts a bit...actually alot...when I recall how much I paid for TF. I'm kind of obsessed with AL Haramain at the moment.
Thank you Sharri! 🥰 Yes, it is painful when you find a more affordable dupe for an overpriced fragrance. And this is coming from a Tom Ford fan over here! 🙌🏼
I’m in love with gravity . Got mine for 80$ . It smells so good and one of my coworkers comment on how good I smell today
Yay!! So glad to hear this! 🥳🥳🥳
I am addicted to the drydown of Afnan's Supremacy Purple (which lasts forever; on clothes, it will stay on for weeks after washing, and it will just cling to the air in my bathroom for about a week) and Ard Al Zaafaran's Aroosat al Emarat (which is an absolute compliment getter for me, really sensual and feminine, something that men really seem to love on me).
I received my bottles of Swiss Arabian's Hamsah and Al Haramain's Rafia Gold (not the perfume oil, but the EDP) today, and I can't wait to get my nose on them. :)
By the way, I love your delivery. You remind me of one of my favorite true crime UA-camrs, you both are very effortlessly funny. It's not easy to be informative and entertaining at the same time while just looking into a camera, and you do it really well.
Hi Peanut Forever! 💖 Thanks so much for your kinds comments, you are too sweet. 🥰 Sounds like you have some great Middle Eastern selections. It's always lovely to get compliments on whatever we're wearing. 👍👍👍
Just received Eternia and you were right my friend what a Vanilla I got about 9 hours of it. Yessss and yes yes what a Vanilla😱I’m going today to find some gems from your list I forgot about this video! Got my list Thank youuuu🙏🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Oh wonderful! 🥳🥳🥳 So so glad you love it! Thanks my dear! 💖🥰
Ameer Al Oud Marshmallow vibe - Definitely Yes
You have this one right? So good. 💖
What an amazing collection! Amber Oud Rouge is the only one I own! Very impressed by it’s longevity!
Thanks Julie! 💖 You got perhaps one of the very best ones! 💯🙌🏼
Loved this video! Lots to add to my to-try list. I absolutely adore Qaa'ed and Opulent Musk, and finally got my nose on Perlador. So intoxicating! ❤️
Hi Ruby!! Yeah!! Hooray for these three fragrances and good for you! Nice additions to the fragrance wardrobe! 💖
Hi Veronica, you look fabulous with this stunning hair style and the makeup. I am so excited you dedicated a full episode for Middle Eastern perfumes. You second spelling of Borouj is correct (means towers the symbol of Kuwait, hence the caps of the bottles.). Maahir launched their new fragrance (for ladies).. same bottle but clear glass and golden horse head, the smell is hypnotizing. Rasasi La Yuqawam line (means Irresistable) has 6 different scents, my faves are Jasmin Whisp, Orchid and Amber. There are some huge very reputable perfumers in Bahrain and I would suggest JUNAID established in 1920. Love from Bahrain.
Hi Fatima, thank you soooo much! 💖 Yes, I've been wanting to do this for a while. And could not feature all of them - it would have been too long. Okay, you have convinced me to look into the clear Maahir with the gold top. I considered purchasing. Thank you also for the recommendation to check out JUNAID! 🙏💖🥰
Wooow, you’ve got bangers there🤩😍👌🔥💨. I would love to get Borouj, I have seen the red bottle on eBay but I’m a bit nervous to buy on there😱😱. My list has also grown from Shaghaf Oud, Cassablanca, Club de Nuit, Her Higness Red, Rare Tiffany, Ornament, Ornament Purple, Modest Deux, Larnie (Dolce Amalfi), Lush Cherry (Lost Cherry), Dirham Wadi, Amber Oud Gold to Ameer Oudh Intense😍😍. I decluttered Oud For Glory and Club De Nuit Intense Woman. I would love to get Amber Oud Tobacco, Azora and I’m waitlisted for Rasana. Middle Eastern fragrances are extremely popular in South Africa because they are way affordable than your mainstream ones👌👌. Great collection as always. Stay gorgeous😍😍.
Hi Pinkie! 💖 Borouj Gravity would be a good one to add to the list. And you have quite a wishlist there! Some fun options on your list. About eBay, it can be very hit or miss, depending on the individual seller. I can see the Middle Eastern fragrances being more affordable than mainstream. Hope you get your wishlist soon! 🥳🥳🥳 Thanks for watching! 💖💖💖
@@VeronicaSays
Just to clarify, I already own the ones (13) that I have mentioned🤩🤩.
The only one of these I have so far is Casablanca. I really enjoy it! I have Amber oud rouge arriving tomorrow and I’m excited about that!
Hi Kara! I enjoy Casablanca also. Glad I gave it a chance. Please let me know your thoughts on Amber Oud Rouge. Thanks for watching!
Hey Veronica 🙋🏻♀️ I have and love Lataffa Raghba, Ard Al Zaafaran Dirham Wardi, Al Haramain L'Aventure Femme, Borouj Gravity, SA Casablanca, SA Ghadeer, Jasmine Wisp and Wisal Dhahab. They're all great! 🥰❤
Hi Gerda! 👋 Excellent list! 💖💖💖 That's quite a collection. L'Aventure Femme is a really good one!! 🥰🥰🥰
I do not have a problem with the brand of perfumes but for me middle eastern fragrances can be quite a problem. I do not enjoy Oud in fragrances at all and most of them have Oud or woody notes. But i am willing to try them and i found a few outstanding. For me Al Haramain was the house that surprised me a lot and i love it. My favorite is Junoon Noir and Amber Oud Tobacco Edition. Honey and Cinnamon. Love it.
Hi Diana, yes, a lot of people are not keen on oud or woody notes. I understand! There are many like Junoon Noir that steer clear of those. I'm glad you found a few that interest you! 🥳 Thanks for watching 💖
Orchid Prairie from Resasi reminds me of playdoh. My first reaction and wear it last year Christmas Dinner and everybody did told me also it reminds them of the Playdoh we used to play in Philippines when we were young. So it's nostalgic smell. Love it!
Oh wow! What a lovely association of happy childhood days. 😁🥰 Thanks for watching!
I had to watch and rewatch this several times to takes notes ! Thank you!
Hi there! Aw, thank you so much. Glad you found it useful. 🥰
I recently got and love Asdaf Majd al Sultan. It’s like a less loud Tobacco Vanille with a middle eastern vibe. This was is a love. I also just got Rasasi Sotoor Waad which I’m enjoying.
We got Majd al Sultan also! Bottle is cool. My husband wears it - it's on his shelf. Beautiful fragrance! 💖
You have an amazing collection and love your recommendation. I do have some of the fragrance- Alharamian, Swiss Arabian, Lattaffa and Ajmal and you were spot on with the description and longevity. I need to try out the Her highness collection and Borouj. 👌🏾 nice video
Hello Nkiru! 👋 Thank you, so glad you enjoyed the video and agree with the descriptions. The Highness collection is wonderful and so are the Borouj ones - especially Gravity and Modernity. 💖
You have such an amazing Middle Eastern fragrance collection! Many that I haven’t tried. Thank you so much for sharing them! ❤️❤️😘
Thank you!! I want everyone to know how awesome these are! 👌🏼💯😁
I love my middle Eastern fragrances! This was a great video since there are sooooo many out there and very little reviews on them - thanks for doing this !! 😍
Yes, so many awesome ones to try out! Thanks for watching Melissa! 💖
What an amazing list, thank you! Taking many notes ✍️ Some favorites in my nascent collection: SA Sehr Al Sheila, SA Shaghaf Oud Aswad, Lattafa Sheikh Al Shuyukh Luxe, Lattafa Oud Mood. Just talking about them makes me want to go sniff them 🤤 xo
Hi Sara, thank you so much! Your collection is gorgeous already! Gosh there are soooo many amazing scents to explore - it's quite a rabbit hole! Thanks for watching 💖 Check out Orientica also - all beautiful.
What an incredible list my love so many I had never heard of I’m gonna call you my Middle Eastern queen your collection of Middle Eastern fragrances is incredible 😍😍
Wow, much harder to get for us here in Canada for sure but it’s great to find out which ones are good since there isn’t that many reviews online 😍
Aw thanks Moraima! 💖 Fragrancebuy.ca sells many of these if you are interested in ever trying some. There are so many to experiment with! Lots of gems! Thanks for watching 🙏
Beautiful collection! I fell in love with middle eastern fragrances years ago when my husband was still in the military. Amber Oud Rouge is amazing! I need to get my hands on Khaltat Night! Dammit LuuLuu!🤣
Thank you! And yessss Khaltat Night needs to be on your shelf. I blame LuuLuu AND Marcy! 😁😁😁
It’s Veronicaaaaaaaaa! Excited like a puppy over here 😊😊😊 What a great list, thank you for sharing! ❤️
You are soooo sweet!!! Thank you 💖💖💖
Fantastic video, thank you! Just found your channel and enjoying it very much...I am in the market for so.e new fragrances and have been studying the Middle Eastern for a while..Great resource to refer back to..
Thank you! 💖 Glad the video was helpful. 🥰🥰🥰
I've been hoping for a video like this. My husband was in UAE for a long time and now I will consider ordering stuff for both of us. He already knows what he likes.
Wonderful! I hope you got some ideas for new items. 🥰💖
@@VeronicaSays I had 9pm in my cart, but I am on a fragrance bender and want one, too!
Yes, I have most definitely had my eye on some of these! Gonna have to go ahead and put in an order! Great video! You look amazing with the blue eye look and blue sweater!🥰 Hope everyone is having a great week!🙂
Awww thank you Winnie! 💖 And happy fragrance shopping! Lots of great choices out there! 🥰
Hi Veronica, thanks for this video! I don’t think Middle Eastern Fragrances get as much love as more mainstream frags. I have Rasai Sotoor Seen which is beautiful and I just blind bought Miris Sulit, not sure if it’s a middle eastern brand..but it’s beautiful. Khalaht Night is always sold out on fragbuy so it must be good. I will definitely be checking out some of your picks.
Hi Vanessa! I agree - this segment of the perfume market doesn't get the love it deserves. Thanks for watching! Yes, Khaltat Night can be hard to get a hold of (probably because it's having a big UA-cam moment). 💖💖💖
Eternia sounds so inviting 🤍
Thanks for sharing this!
Oohhh Khaltar night…may need to get!!
Eternia is sooooo nice! And for the price? Yeah. Add to cart 😂
Khaltat Night is really good. 👌🏼
Heyyy lady! This video popped up and I said oh I must watch. I love love love Gravity! I want to try the others!!
Hiiii! Gravity is FABULOUS! Thanks dor watching! 💕💖💕
Okay so... I purchased Yara and Ajwad by Lattafa. I wanna do a cartwheel but i cant lol. These smell delicious!!! I am a Big fan of Musk and Woody scents in my perfume.🥰
Hi Aisha! 💖🥰 I've heard great reviews of both! Good for you for picking them up! 💯
Hi Veronica, Carolina Herrera Confidential fragrances is Middle Eastern collection. I will venture into some featured. ❤️ your Collection, Great review💖👏🏾
Oh really? Thanks so much for watching! 💖 Glad there were some new ones for you to explore! 🥰
Thank u for sharing! beautiful fragrances i just want to mention that Attar Collection is a russian brand which registered in another country.
Thank you for sharing this!
Hey boo! You know I love Her Highness Red. I am so adventurous right there with you! ❤️😍
Hi Lala!! 💖 Yes, Her Highness Red is a beauty for sure! 🥰
8:33 this is what my mom loves to smell on me the most for some reason and have gotten compliments with it very unique!
How lovely! I wonder if my son would wear it? I'll ask him. Thanks for watching! 💖🥰
@@VeronicaSays It's a pleasing smell.. thanks for the video! Blessings
@@xhulio24 thank you 🙏💖
Miss Veronica,
Really enjoyed your reviews. You have a fabulous collection and now I don’t feel so bad for having a massive collection myself and still researching and acquiring even more……my list of to buys is ever growing……hard not to do when you have ALL of these fabulous niche scents…..the various houses, collections, etc. I like to switch it up and will grab for whatever my mood/vibe is……like music. I got bored with my designer collection and delved into this world of intoxicating perfumes……and I LOVE musk, amber and oud…………so…..hello….I’m in heaven and they have great projection, spillage and longevity. The prices are fab and the quality is there if not better. I never write comments but had to reach out because I would love to pick your brain. I subscribed and will watch for more. Much thanks, kimmy
Hi Kimberly! Same here. So many wonderful options to explore! The list to try continues to grow and grow. And Middle Eastern fragrances are a world unto themselves with so many interesting choices! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💖🥰😊
You have definitely got quite the collection of ME perfumes, I have my eye on Her Highness Black, it sounds divine 👌🙌
I went a little overboard collecting them. 😂 I think you would enjoy the Highness bottles. 💖
🤣Vampire lord 🧛♂️ omg you have so many goodies! I want more middle eastern gems and you exposed me to some that I’ve never seen before. Love this video Veronica thank you for sharing these 💗
Yes a whole vampire lord in a rugged castle somewhere 🤣 Awesome! So glad you enjoyed the video and found some new ones to explore. 💖
The notes in a lot of AH fragrances sounds so good to me 🥰♥️
Yes, my fave house from the ME brands. 🙌🏼
@@VeronicaSays I have a feeling I’m going to love it too. Can’t wait to get my nose on it🥰
Interesting collection👍💐I have Rasasi and Yara. Then Ana Abyedh from Lattafa, which they say is dupe for BRouge.I think it’s more for winter but quite nice. For office I use Dirham Wardi from Ard Al Zaafaran, light but nice.
Hi Liz! 💖 Lovely! Thank you for sharing your faves. 🥰
Thanks for doing this. I have a few love Madinah and Wisal as they last all day. Yesterday I unboxed Maze from Al Haramain on my chanel. So suprising a new rose for me 🌹🌟
Hi Amanda! 👋 I'll have to look up Madinah and Maze. Thanks for watching! 💖
Holy cow you have some beauties! That purple Borouj spoke to me last time you made your video! Spa? Check! Shampoo? Check! Clean spa! Done! 👏🏻👏🏻🥰💕
Thank you!! Yes, Modernity is a very interesting fragrance! Clean shampooey spa thing with woody base. 🥳👌🏼💯
Just ordered Armaf Eternia and Armaf Donna! Ty! You look so beautiful!
Thank you Bonnie! Awesome!! Enjoy your new fragrances! 💖💖💖
You look beautiful, my friend!
Middle Eastern fragrances intrigue me, and your description of all of these has me thinking I'm going to be spending some time reviewing this video and making a list. YAY! I LOVE A LIST! I also love the music in the background. :)
Awww thank you! And glad you enjoyed the music selection! 💖 Yes, a few of your new perfume loves are on this list! 🥰🥰🥰
I would like to recommend to you Al Haraiman Oyuny and Armaf Edition One. They are both so great!!
Hi there! Thanks so much! I have looked at both of these before and have Oyuny on my list to try. 👍👍👍
That sweater color is lovely on you! I love your eyeshadow and how it goes with it! I get overwhelmed when I start to shop for ME fragrances because there are so many, just like you said! I've ended up with a long list that I have no idea how to narrow down, haha. 🙈 This video was helpful though!! 🤗
Thank you so much! 🥰💖 It can be overwhelming shopping for fragrances in general. I suggest checking out Fragrantica reviews and looking in the "reminds me of" section for comparisons. I found that very helpful.
Hi, Veronica! Have you tried the Wisal in the silver bottle?? I have it and LOVE IT. It is a fresh version of Wisal very similar to Montale Dark Purple. Absolute LOVE.
Hi there, I have not tried but have been tempted. I have never smelled Montale Dark Purple. I'll look both of these up - thanks so much for the recommendation! 💖💖💖
I put a few on my wish list. Junoon the original and Amber Oud Tobacco!!💜
Both are gorgeous! Let me know your thoughts if you ever get them. 💖
Hi Veronica, thank you for this amazing video. I absolutely love middle eastern fragrance. Do not know how I missed this video. Please do another one? Have a great day.
Hi Kathleen! 💖 I'm so glad you enjoyed this video. I have another one on amazing dupes that has some middle eastern fragrances featured. Maybe check that one out. 🙏
I will my beautiful lady. Thank you!@@VeronicaSays
I really enjoy the ones from Al Haramain! You, Adrienna and Jessica have me covered when I want to explore and expand my options! Tfs🥰💕💕
Al Haramain brings thunder and lightning to the fragrance world! Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed! 💖💖💖
I just KNEW you were the person to help me find some hidden gems. I really want that opulent musk 🔥👌🏼
Hi Charlotte! You can't go wrong with Opulent Musk, especially for the price! Thanks for watching! 🙏
The Tux from Alhambra is really really good also.
I've heard good reviews on that one! 💯
I am very impressed by your collection + perfume knowledge! I wrote ones down that peek my interest! Thank you!
Awww thanks so much Joan! Glad a few interested you 🙏🙏🙏
This is such a great/useful video for someone exploring oriental fragrances like myself👍. I think I might blind buy Qasamat Rasana if I can get my hands on it. It sounds amazing 💕. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on these fragrances.
Thank you so much! Qasamat Rasana is a good one to try. Make sure you do a full day wear and ask people around you what they think of it. 👍👍👍
wWOWw! I wish you could see how the color of the "juice" in Ameer Al Oud intense looks like water in comparison these days! I Waited too long to grab it
It might be lighter because there's vanilla in the fragrance and vanilla darkens over time. So newer batches will have clearer juice.
@@VeronicaSays Oh, ok. Thats why you have a successful channel Madame! 😁. Did not know that, thanks!
💖💖💖🥰🥰🥰
Congratulations for your marathon review. So detailed!
Thank you Claudia! 💖🥰
Thanks for sharing…I took notes 😀. You are so right…the quality is stellar!
Hi there! Awesome 💖 Thanks for watching! 🥰
Great video!! You’ve got a lovely collection. I have a few that I am enjoying myself. On your recommendation, I’ve also ordered the Roohey Tehebak. Can’t wait to get it. There are indeed so many gems to be found in Middle Eastern fragrances. Another one from the Al Haramain line I have, is Rawaa, which smells delicious too. I also got wind of a house called Ne’emah, also in the Middle East. In particular, a fragrance called Laya. The reviews on it here on UA-cam piqued my interest. I couldn’t find the fragrance anywhere around me (I live on one of the Caribbean Islands), but I found the oil and ordered a 12 ml sample of it….. it is stunning!! Smells heavenly and lasts ages (as in many days) on my clothes and at least 10 hours on my skin! I’m now on the hunt for the fragrance, but will pick up at least a 100 ml of the oil asap😅. Anyway, thanks for the informative and entertaining video. I subscribed immediately 😁! Stay safe and fragrant!
Hi Yopsi! Welcome to the channel! You'll love Roohy Tehebek. Gorgeous one! I have Rawaa in my online cart! Al Haramain makes stunner after stunner! 💖💖💖 Is Laya available on Amazon? Does it have a floral motif on the bottle?
Thanks for the Rawaa recommendation 🙏🏿😊
Wow, what a huge middle eastern collection 😍
My favourite one is Aristocrat for her from Ajmal ❣(another Baccarat Rouge 540 dupe 🙈)
Hi there! Yes, I have heard Aristocrat is wonderful! 💖💖💖
Hi Veronica ! I hope you’ll
Consider doing a list of long lasting EDT fragrances . It will help us and those that are new to the fragrance world that thinks EDP is always the most long lasting and as I am
Learning it’s not always the case. Anyway, just a suggestion! Have a good one and thank you!
Hi Len! Hhhmmm... I would have to really think about what to include on such a list - thanks for the idea and you're right about longevity! 💖
I just added 5 perfumes to my list, love the video
Hi Jacqueline, wonderful! Glad you found some new ones to try. 💖💖💖
This was really good, we need some alternatives to "the same ol' -designer-frags-videos"!
Hi Johanna! I totally agree! Variety is good. 💖💖💖
Veronica! I listen to you talk about some of your favourite fragrances, wait, favourite anything at any time. I really enjoyed this. I'm surprised that you picked up your Borouj scents for such an affordable price, they've gone up. Don't sleep on Borouj! I still have my middle eastern fragrance journey ahead of me but got a great start with your decant of Rasana and picked up that and the rest of the line. Great video! ✌🏽🧜🏼♂️❤️
Oh snap - I don't know if I told you but I tested His and Her highness decants that you sent me at the same time for a workout at the gym! Y'all, once my body started heating up, the scent was just vibrating through the whole gym or at least felt that way. I was choking folks out! 🕺🏼
Yeah!!! Thanks Richard. I'm glad you're starting to venture into Middle Eastern fragrances. I want them ALL!! Sooooo many gems to explore, but only so much time and skin to put them on. 🤣🤣🤣
You probably had whole sections of the gym to yourself! 😁 You were smelling OPULENT while sweating. Love it! 💖
Thank you hun for this video, what an amazing list! I've purchased Ruhy tehebak from your recommendatios ages ago. As I used to own the YSL Belle D'Opium. (Still have the bittle !😢). But the scent is linear and not beast mode. Then again who cares, it ticks the box for the scent, for me to enjoy.😉
Will you do an updated version of this list ? Thank you once again, beautiful lady. 😘💕👋
Yes! Roohy Tehbak (and Belle d'Opium) - so pretty! 🥰💖 Glad you enjoyed the video. I'll think about an updated one this winter, probably.
Afnan her highness fragrances are everything! Definitely quality fragrances.
Yesss really nicely done!
Great Video, i am so glad i am not alone in this boat, i find myself telling people a lot about middle eastern fragrances, i travel to Dubai often and i cannot tell you the JOY of stepping into the market scouting for perfumes, 😁 Thank you for introducing these fine fragrances😍
Oh wow, that sounds like a DREAMY experience! One day! Thanks for watching! 💖🙏
I have a few of the ones you mentioned. I also really enjoy Adjmal Senora and Armaf Shades Wood as well.
Hi Jackie! 👋 Thanks for sharing these suggestions! And thanks for watching! 💖
Faten White, by Afnan is one of my favourites. Its just the most beautiful fruity, floral gourmand. Beautiful
Thanks Yasmin! I will look this one up! 💖💖💖
Is Faten White considered to be a dupe of anything?
Oh yes! Ameer al Oud Intense is beautiful
Yes, such a yummy one! 💖
Lol I can’t believe I missed this video until now ♥️😂🌹 I love so many rose fragrances, I have a couple of middle eastern fragrances. I’ll try most fragrances as long as it’s feminine 👌 I like spicy but not masculine 🤗 but I like that houses have a variety and not limited to just men or women .
Well I tell ya, they're are sooo many wonderful options in the Middle Eastern fragrance world! It's fun to experiment. 👌🏼💝
@@VeronicaSays I have to agree and great quality, the ones I’ve tried so far , surprisingly a lot are really affordable or at least reasonable 👌
Great video , can you plz recommend a eastern fragrance that has incense....oudh doesn't mesh with my skin but I love incense..not overly masculine
Hi Debbie, these are not middle eastern, but I highly recommend Casbah by Robert Piguet, Laudano Nero by Tiziana Terenzi, and L'air Du Desert Marocain by Andy Tauer. I can't think of any of the Middle Eastern fragrances that feature incense but not oud or woody notes - perhaps another viewer can weigh in.
I love your collection!!! Try Majd Al Sultan by Asdaaf if you get a chance! Its spice, smokiness and saffron.. has a bit of BR vibe mixed with by the fire place.
Thank you, and I agree about Madj Al Sultaan - I have a bottle! 💖💖💖
You doing really great sister am so comfortable among your channel keep being bless buy god
Thank you! 🥰
You should try some of the offering from Maison Alhambra some of theirs are absolutely amazing!
Hi Darrell, I know a lot of people love their offerings 👍👍👍
Absolutely awesome frags
Thank you darling! 💖
Excellent middle eastern collection review...I have many Ajmals, AL Haramains, Lattafas, Rasasi and other artisinal attars from the middle and far east...I think Middles Eastern fragrances are so under the radar and I don't mind that at all bc that way not everyone has it. That sounded selfish but oh well...lols
Thank you Fernando! 💖💖💖 I agree! What are some of your favorite attars? I am curious to know.
Yesss girlfriend! Still crushing on qaaed!😍😍😍😍Definitely one of my most outstanding Middle East fragrances. Opulent musk as well. These are definitely highlights for me. 😆😆😆Maahir is a tough one! It’s not safe and very different. Nuclear is it!
Yup! Qaa'ed is a big win for 2021! 🥳 Have you tried Majd Al Sultan? Maybe? If your guy likes Maahir Black he might also like Majd al Sultan. 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I recently tried Khalrat Nights but returned it since it's nearly the same vibe as Le Bain by Joop! I prefer Le Bain for the tobacco note and super affordable.
Joop! Le Bain is a gem! 💖🥰
such an amazing video, I enjoyed watching this.
Thank you so much! 🙏🙏🙏
Hi there! Here enjoying this video! Sending you hugs! Some of the bottles are really nice!
Hi Nadia! Thanks so much! 💖💖💖
What a great video …definitely put some of these on my list only discovering Fragrances from the Middle East ….I purchased Halfeti …an English fragrance house but the fragrance was very Middle Eastern inspired and fell in love with incense spice and an oud that is done well ….now I am on a journey can you recommend a fragrance that has that incense church vibe to it ….as Much as I love Halfeti it’s Hella expensive…!
Hi Mary! Thank you so much. Are you referring to Penhaligons Helfeti? So nice. For that church incense vibe, I recommend L'Autre Oud from Maison Lancome. And perhaps Casbah by Robert Piquet gets close enough. I'm sharing my oud and incense video in case it might be helpful in your search: ua-cam.com/video/1MAp6OMnhcU/v-deo.html
@@VeronicaSays the you so much xx
Loved this. What a great idea.
Thanks for sharing
Much love!
Hi Dawn! Thanks for watching. 🙏
A quality video...I shall be referencing this! Thank you
Thank you so much! Glad you found it useful! 🙌🏼🥰🙏
Barouj Gravity has been on my list, but I've added just a few more. Great round up. I know I stalled doing my video too because there are so many and more to add and another and another, lol. Great video💜
I think you would at least "like" Borouj Gravity. Yes, these "round up" style videos can be stressful! 😂 I'm always worried I will forget a really important one. We can always do an updated video later, right?!
hello. beautiful eyes. i have on rotation Amber Rogue and Gold ; Saving the Jasmine Wisp for Spring ; want to add a few more, thank you for the suggestions.
Hi Ana! 👋 Thank you so much! Jasmine Wisp for spring is a great idea. 💖💖💖
Have you sniffed Ana Abiyedh byLataffa?
Oh it’s really beautiful, and fairly long lasting!
Hi Joey! I have not. Thanks for this recommendation! 💝💝💝
I have the original Club de Nuit for women. OMG, that fragrance is incredible. Maria from Canada and I think Chris from Perfume Nest recommended it and I bought as a blind buy and man, it's a sexy scent that I was a little concerned it would be too heavy. However, in the end, I have to say, it's a compliment getter, so I know I shouldn't be afraid to wear and enjoy it!!
Hi Linda! 🥰 Wear that fragrance! 💖💖💖 I've heard great reviews on that one. Thanks for sharing.
Veronica, hey sweetie! Yes, I’m coming back to this topic again lol I have a question, Between the junoon rose and the original junoon, which one is sweeter ? I only have the rose one but I adore it do much was pondering picking up the original. Which do you prefer out of he two and why? You are my favorite UA-camr to go yo about middle eastern fragrances 🥰👌♥️
Hi Danit! 💕 Thank you for the kind words! Of the two, I prefer Junoon Rose slightly more as it has the almond and floral touch missing from the original. The original is a more clean baby powder and baby oil kind of smell. I like the original very much but my family thinks the powder is overwhelming, so Junoon Rose wins this round for me. 😂 Hope this helps!
Yes my GORGEOUS I was waiting for this 😁🤩
Hi Fragrance Twin! I thought you might enjoy this one. 😘😘😘
