Informative and with such detail and contrast. Great analysis, Loredana 🎉🎉
Thank you for watching my dear, glad to hear you enjoyed it! 🌹❤🤗
I'm so happy to find your channel! Really helpful reviews! Thank you a lot
I'm happy to hear you resonate with my videos, thank you for watching! ❤️🤗
As always, a great review. Thank you Loredana ❤️
Glad to hear you enjoyed it, thank you for watching dear! 🌹❤️
Hey L! Of course I am watching! Love your reviews🥰🤗
Thank you for watching my dear, happy to hear you resonate with my vidoes! ❤🌹🤗
The Al Maika I have this one, I love this one! I have a full bottle of it! I hadn’t been using it much lately. But I need to pull it out before summer over. Thank you for sharing. ♥️🌹
Thank you for watching my dear 🌹❤ Glad to hear you enjoy Ser al Malika, I think in warm weather it would work great as a base to layer with other scents, it would give them a beautiful undertone.✨
@@AFragrantGlance
Your welcome I enjoy your videos! You have a beautiful smile and lovely personality. Do you have any suggestions on laying? ❤️🌹
I was tempted to buy Mocha wood but I already have Orientica Sara and Alhambra Musk Vanille which are both fusions of Roses Vanille and Intense Cafe.
On the hunt for Super Crush. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching 🌹❤ It would most likely be redundant to get Mocha Wood as well unless you want to have multiples of the same DNA. Let me know what you think of Super Crush, I feel like when it comes to this DNA everyone gets something different from it, I hope you'll enjoy it. ✨
Great video, thank you as always. I bought Super Crush early this year (23). It seemed authentic but was so weak it was like bottled water with a drop of fragrance added, which makes me think Paris Corner might have some quality control issues (I also had performance issues with Vibrant Vetiver). To make things worse I then bought Instant Crush and despite it being legitimate its performance was even worse.
Thank you for watching dear! 🌹❤️ Vibrant Vetiver indeed doesn't have the best performance, but Super Crush and Instant Crush are fragrances that pack a punch, perhaps try to give your nose time and see if anything changes in the next few months. Have you been recently cold? Let me know if they get better. 💫
Great video!
Thank you for watching 🌹❤
😊thank you was very helpful.
Glad to hear that, thank you for watching dear ❤🌹
An aside: Loredana, today I wore the BKR540 oil from Abul Alamin Attar with Minuit et Demi. I applied the attar at 700 am and when I arrived to work at 800 am, I was told I left a scent trail from about 15 meters! I did use about 10-12 little dots of oil with my finger :) as a blotter. What a beautiful recommendation, thank you! Ciao, Loredana.
what is Minuit et Demi?
@@liznewark it is a perfume name.
Hi there i cant believe u doing this review now😊..bcos i was thinking of purchasing magic oud in kalemath but was not too sure...i believe it smells similar to kalemat black arabain oud..and i like ur opinion on super crush..so glad to know it smells that similar to Instant crush😊😊 ur review came at just the right time thank u so much! ❤
Thank you for watching dear, glad to hear the timing was great ❤🌹☀️Super Crush is soo beautiful and extremely similar to Instant Crush, amazing inspiration. If you have the possibility to test Magic Oud in Kalimath it would be great, the opening is a tad harsh but the dry down is beautiful! Reminds me of Golden Sand by Al Rehab a bit. If you try it let me know what you think of it.💫
@@AFragrantGlance I'm really happy to know super crush is a gud dupe of instant crush and smells great...:)) I tried Instant crush on a Airport once and was amazing!! But will now purchase super crush..thanks to you!!! I'm not too sure about Magic Oud in kalemath yet...still thinking about it:)
I will let u know when I have super crush...thanks again :)
I have Magic Oud in Kalimath and Ser Al Malika, and I love them both. Both were love at first sniff for me. Yes, Oud in Kalimath smells like cookies, so yummy!!!! Husband loves both of these on me.💞
Glad to hear you enjoy them! 🥳 The dry down of Magic Oud in Kalimath is so beautiful and delicious, it truly has quite a journey, the magic is in the dry down. Thank you for watching 🌹❤
Super Crush and Mocha Wood are on my wish list. ❤
If you try them let me know how you feel about them, I hope you'll enjoy them! Thank you for watching 🤗❤️
@@AFragrantGlance I ended up ordering them on sale this weekend.
How do you feel about them? Do you enjoy them? ✨️
@@AFragrantGlance So far, so good. They’re nice, but I they will be even better when they sit a little bit. I’m glad I got them.
Marin - the way you describe - is exactly what I don't want from a fragrance. A generic fruity fragrance... is exactly what I don't want. Unless it has something special or even interesting in the base or something.
I swear you have to try King Bharara. It is a Unisex fruity fragrance, that is similar to Xerjoff Erba Pura, but there's a touch of oud in it. And I'm not big on oud at all but this fragrance is ADDICTIVE and so beautiful! 🥰 would love to see what you think of it. It's also pretty beast-mode too 😏😏
Unfortunately I can't find it anywhere in Romania, it's not available here. Oud and the DNA of Erba Pura sounds amazing! ✨️ Have you tried Jasmine Wisp by Rasasi? Do you find it similar to the one you recommended? So far from all the fragrances I've tried in this scent family Jasmine Wisp and Little Hearts for are my favourites.
Thank you for watching dear! 🌹❤️
@@AFragrantGlance I have not tried Jasmine Wisp yet. I was looking at buying but because I already have my favorite EP dna I was wondering if it would be a waste or not? Maybe I can find a sample somewhere. I am really interested! I ended up getting a Xerjoff EP sample and was so surprised by how much I disliked how they did the fruits in it. King B is so much better. Not sure if it was meant to be a dupe really but def in the same family. I wish I could send you some samples! I would hook you up. Not sure what shipping would be or if you would have to pay duties & taxes tho??
Hi there beautiful,,, can you recommend a good dupe for Resala, sehr al Sheila. Also any good affordable middle eastern cherry 🍒 dominant fragrance?
Also I've tested Givenchy L'INTERDIT Rouge on my wrists while out shopping. Sadly it didn't last long. 😕
I've heard that Cherry by Ahmed Al Maghribi is good but I haven't smelled it yet
Hi dear, thank you for watching! ❤️🌹 For an affordable cherry scent I have two recommendations depending what you enjoy in general, if you want something in the vibe of Lost Cherry then Boozy Cherry by Paris Corner is a beautiful option, smells like cherry compot with almonds, quite simplistic but works amazingg for layering. If you want more of a decadent cherry scent look up Kaheela Lux by Paris Corner (I have reviews for both) this is their take on Invite Only Amber by Kayali but with added cherry, it's so beautiful! Sehr al Sheila I haven't smelled unfortunately, but if you want something similar to Resala to my nose Shaghaf Oud is pretty very similar (to me Resala, Shaghaf Oud, Riwayat al Oud and Oud Bouquet from Lancome have a very similar vibe). Oh what a shame it didn't last on your skin, the L'Interdit line used to have such great performance! 🌠
I’ve heard the Malika smells like the Sheikh al Shuyukh which I loooove. What do you think, can the smell the similarities too?
I can sense some similarities between them however to me they're still different, Oud Mood might be a bit more similar. When I first sampled Ser al Malika I didn't like it at all but it got better with time, better look for a sample first if you have the chance, I still prefer Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe & Shaghaf Oud in that scent family. Thank you for watching 🌹❤️
Is Marin Unisex or Female frag ?
Can a Man wear it ?
And how does it compare it to AAM Muzn ?
I was very curious about the last one, but I was hoping that it will smell like coffee, I don’t know why. 😅 I already have Lattafa Lahdath that is similar to Mancera Roses Vanille, so I don’t think I will buy it. Maybe I will look for a sample of it. Thank you, my beautiful. ❤❤❤
Thank you for watching my dear🌹❤🤗🤗 To me the coffe doesn't shine as much, if it would've shined more it would've been be a tad more unique. Better look for a sample of it to test it cause if you already have an inspiration of Roses Vanille it might be redundant to have both even though the scent itself it very nice.🌸
Oh! Is Lahdath very musky? I love love vanillic roses and have been eyeing this one for a while, but I can't stand mid to strong musks :C
@@inevra4053it is a bit musky, but a sweet musk. I get sweet rose, vanilla and powdery notes. It is beautiful.
Hi, please where do you buy your fragrance
Thank you for watching 🌹❤ Depends on the brand, some I buy them from Parfumas.ro (they ship everywhere in Europe, they also have samples), some from Dubai Collection (they ship everywhere in Europe, they also have samples), some from Vivantis, some from Notino, some from Parfumss and for anything Junaid Perfumes I buy them from Marab or A Rada Perfumes. ✨
Foarte interesant, ca de obicei și, pentru că momentan sunt interesată de parfumuri Ahmed al Maghribi, am ascultat cu atenție din nou partea în care descrii creațiile acestuia, cred totuși că parfumurile prezentate nu sunt cele care vor intra în viitorul apropiat în colecție....
Intr-adevar, Ahmed al Maghribi au niște parfumuri deosebite din toate punctele de vedere, merita mult mai multa atenție. Care sunt parfumurile tale preferate de la ei? 🤗🌹❤️
@@AFragrantGlance 🤗Îți mulțumesc pentru toate răspunsurile, întotdeauna ești atât de atentă cu cei care urmăresc canalul tău, eu am primit și bonus🥰❤...deocamdată preferatul meu este Bidun Esam, apoi Oud Lavender și Awfa(pe care m-am temut să-l port în afara casei, deși îmi place mult)...am primit o mostră din Glory, încă nu m-am hotărât dacă îmi place...uitaseam, ultimele cumpărate îmi sunt dragi de asemenea: Rose Noir, Pure Wonder și Instance.
Ahmed perfumes are unisex so why do u always say women?
Because some of them lean feminine to my nose but with this in mind everyone should wear whatever they enjoy. Thank you for watching ✨️
