Yes! It's so good, and add in Nebras, Qissa Delicious, Chocolate Greedy, Yum Boujee Marshmallow, Yum Pistachio Gelato and Vanilla 28 in any order or combo and it's amazing. I've been building up a base of loads of these gourmands then adding one last scent on top like Angel's Share (or any dupe) and omg, it's divine. I'm not a huge fan of Lost Cherry but I've been using that on top too and it's so much better with a chocolate scent underneath. Vanilla Royale and Vanilla Candy go well with them too but some people don't like the patchouli in those two. I love them both though, I just wish Vanilla Candy was a bit stronger and longer lasting. I've also bought Musky Choco by Adams Perfumes which is supposed to be a stronger version of Choco Musk. I can't tell the difference so far but hopefully after macerating it'll get stronger but either way it's lovely.
I'm so in love with éclair. Got it 3 weeks ago and literally have not worn anything else since, even on vacation In Florida in 100 degree weather last week.
I just decluttered Caramel Cascade bc mine smells like rubber lol. I love Eclaire way more!! That Girt Viral Vanilla from Oakcha smells like Eclaire. I love both of those so much.
I have to try eclair because caramel cascade smelled like burned rubber tires to me. I let mine sit, and it did smell better, but there is still a hint of it there
Lattafa is doing the most when it comes to presentation! Their bottles have heft, too 😅 I love Bianco Latte so much. I bought a 10ml decant off Scent Split and it’s one of my most complimented perfumes. I’ll have a tough decision to make when it runs out, although Eclaire has definitely jumped in price recently after going viral. Definitely looking into Liam!
Please try khair Pistachio which is close dupe to yum pistachio gelato Khamrah Qahwa is also very beautiful but even better, more balanced and less sweet.
Did you let yours sit? All I smell is gross. I don't understand the description people give about it. 😅 it's like a bug spray or cheap perfume from a beauty supply to me. For reference I love eclaire.
Blanch Bette is the most beautiful EXTREMELY lactonic perfume: On me, I really get a super creamy, milky, vanilla jasmine with some almond in there. Some people don’t smell the jasmine at all- but I have a huge jasmine bush outside so I’m very familiar and smell it everyday and I def pick up jasmine on me when I wear BB! Bianco latte or escapade gourmand (smell the same) are the creamy caramel vanilla bomb. There’s so many good ones!
@@mlayne130I’ve heard it’s similar to the Urban Outfitters lait de coco that I loved years ago! Is it strong? The UO one barely lasted a few hours and was more of a skin scent.
Caramel Cascade smells like mushrooms, raw mushrooms too be exact. I thought the reviews must be exaggerating because ive seem some things said about perfumes i own and thought they were crazy but no, this does smell like mushrooms. It's got a tiny bit better but not much. It's not so bad once it's dried down and frim afar, and it's strong, so im using it for layering at the minute but im getting Eclaire soon. Caramel Cascade does smell amazing with other scents like Rose D'Arabie which I found out by accident. I put them rught on top of each other on my hand, Caramel Cascade first, and together they made a sugary sweet vanilla and rose. The vanilla in both mixed together and just made a beautiful scent. Similar to Sweet Diamond Pink Pepper but even better.
Bianco Latte although expensive is very nice. I enjoy it. I got the new Oacha viral vanilla by Oaul. It’s very similar to Bianco with a few differences. It’s more affordable & I think I prefer it. It doesn’t have that slightly synthetic note & is less powdery. It’s really lovely. Recommend.
You have some of my faves there. I wear Liam and Khamrah during colder months. Khamrah makes me feel comforted when I'm having a bad day or feeling a bit flat. I keep thinking about Khamrah qawah but I can never decide if I should buy it or not. I bought Junoon noir because of you and I love it. The opening has violet and it reminds me of my childhood.
Ha because of you I got Crystal Noir! I got the edp ( I wanted strong ) and you’re right!! It’s THE most complimented! It’s still out and they just came out ? I think with a stronger one!
I bought blanco latte on a whim and I have to say it’s addictive. I knew that I would love it based on the notes. Super Cozy, sweet, inviting and just plain divine! ❤
I love Eclaire and I love the bottle, I don’t care what anyone says. I had a decant of BL and it was a “like” (especially at that price point), so I got Eclaire with its kitschy bottle instead. I also adore Sweet Tooth to scratch that vanilla gourmand itch. Love Liam, I think it’s super unisex, and it’s such a great performer! I also have sampled Gris Charnel and it wasn’t a love and it didn’t perform, boo. I heard Liam was closer to the more masculine-leaning GC Extrait. I’m sorry, but I will not be spending thousands on fragrances that fade in an hour, no way. Perhaps if I had a more precious lifestyle, but I am outside, taking care of kids, try to stay away from air conditioning, exerting myself, and I am done with weak scents.
I bought Carmel Cascade (yes, Carmel) from Amazon too and got a fake of the dupe. The liquid is milky pink and smells like BO 😢 I got my money back but for other reasons. The description said it was a 3.4 oz and I got a 1.7 oz.
I definitely want to get Eclaire now 🥰🥰 sounds soo yummy. My fave Arab fragrances so far are Nebras by Lattafa, Khair Pistachio by Paris Corner & Ana Abiyedh White by Lattafa. Obsessed ☺️🌸
Wow! So glad you reviewed Liam Grey. I love Gris Charnel but couldn’t afford it so got this one instead. It’s a bit more powdery than GC. Any suggestions on how to lighten it up and tone down the powdery note? Please do a layering video with these!
Hay I was Wondering if you might know, I wanted to buy Liam so I saw a bunch of youtube video's about it. Now while one compares it to versace crystal noir, another one compares it to Indy by katy Perry Now the thing is: I barely can smell Indy And I love Crystal Noir So which one does it lean more towards? Hopefully you can help me out, thanks😊
@@biancahogenberg1303just received Liam, never smelled indi by Katy Perry or original BDK. First impression of Liam to my unprofessional nose: very masculine but pleasant, let's just say I would love to smell it on a man. So it's either I should put it in a dark place and let it sit and maturate for a bit or it's just a matter of personal preference. It does remind me of Crystal Noir a tad. But definitely more masculine version of Versace.
I got Liam Gray recently and loooooove it. One of my faves in my entire collection! Hopefully will pick up Eclaire soon... Just waiting for the price to drop a little hehehe
thank you for this video i was persueded by people on tik tok to by the carmel one but you just made my decision to not buy it until i can smell it somewhere or i order sample, thank yiu for reccomendinind liam(nobody talks albout it) , and i was the same with khamrah and didnt want to buy it for months but once i did its one of my favourites😍😍😍😍
I didn't love bianca latte, which I was shocked! Im a gourmand lover, and I love caramel scents. The caramel note was delicious, but there were a lot of powdery notes to it, in my opinion, and that was my deal breaker. I ordered the sample and Im so glad I did.
I didn't...l bought the full bottle😢It has a very powdery smell which l didn't like....an old fashioned smell.....maybe it doesn't suit my body chemistry. Will try this week but gave me headache and l don't get headache 😅 x
Love Kamrah. It is so addictive to me. I am so happy you like it, given the fact it is compared to Angel Share. I actually did not like Angels' Share either.
Just ordered eclaire I have kamra just love and the longer any of the latafa perfumes sit the better they get.i have shagaf oud and I've had it about4ish years. And it smells absolutely beautiful now.i mean it always has but it macerated and the smell is so smooth now
Hi Ksenja! Would you be willing to buy that girl viral vanilla by oakcha and compare it to eclair? Which one would you recommend from eclair and that girl?
I love Gris Charnel so you know I had to add Liam to cart immediately! I tried the DUA dupe for it and it smell’s nothing like it. So I’m happy to take your word for Liam because you’ve never steered me wrong! ❤
I have Bianco Latte and Eclair. I mostly always want to have the original perfume in my collection - except for Bianco Latte. I will never repurchase BL. I LOVE the scent - all 10 minutes of it! 😆 Yes, it stays on my sweaters forever, but I go nose-blind by it so quickly. As for Eclair - I enjoyed all seven-plus hours of my scent bubble. IMO, it performs much better than BL.
Khamrah and Eclaire are thee Middle Eastern gourmand dupe goats fr. Khamrah doesn't smell boozy like Angel's Share and it has a more apple pie with creamy dates vibe. It's so good, no wonder it's now higher on the list on Fragrantica.
Ah yes, the Caramel Cascade vs Eclaire. I also get root beer with Caramel Cascade. After watching this I went to find the bottle I had put in my destash box to see if it had macerated. It's been there like 4 months now, and it has changed but only a little. I still get like a root beer/wet concrete vibe in it though there is more vanilla caramel behind it than before. I don't know, I think it's still going to be destashed. But Eclaire, now that one is a beautiful gem. I love it!!! I know I'd probably love Bianco Latte as well, but I don't have the budget for that and Eclaire scratches the itch so to speak. Liam didn't start out very well on me either but that one has macerated beautifully and I love wearing it. I can't wear Gris Charnel or things like Santal 33 because they smell like rubbing alcohol and dill pickles on my skin, but Liam I can now wear and happy about it. Same story with Khamrah, I initially got a lot of woody alcohol in it but it's macerated into the most beautiful spicy gourmand fragrance I think I have and I do also love Angel's Share too. I think most people don't feel that Khamrah is a dupe for Angel's Share but more closely similar to Dates Delight, and I would agree with that. I am totally in love with Middle Eastern fragrances and since the weather has turned cool I have been wearing and layering with all of them exclusively.
I've gotten several arab perfumes now and so far Nebras and Eclair are the only ones that have been good from the get go. Btw to me both are very similar. Eclaire is Nebras minus the minty green note and more ln the lactonic side, creamier.
I'm just TRYING to get my hands on Eclaire. I bought a sample of Bianco Latte and several dupes (Caramel Cascade, Eclaire and a sample from a local perfumer who made a dupe) and the best dupe is Eclaire hands down! Compared to the other dupes, Eclaire is the more well rounded, more smooth and more complete to me. But unfortunately here in Singapore, it's sold out everywhere I try to find it and that sucks! I can't find any sites that will ship internationally to SG. I REALLY hope Lattafa restocks it soon.
A great layering tool I’ve been loving lately is BBW Sweetheart Cherry; layers beautifully with Khamra, Lovefest Burning Cherry, Pistachio scents, Black Opium, Nebras.. it’s a banger. Recently bought Mystique Bouquet because of all the Valaya hype; not nearly as smooth and to me, has a screechy synthetic musk I don’t care for. BUT it smells great on my daughter..it’s just not on the same level as Valaya imo. Khamrah Qahwa is way better to me than the OG; has toned down the cinnamon and feels better blended..plus has a light coffee note. Nebras is veryyyyy similar to Eilish.. just has to macerate. Another one I’ve let macerate and love now is Ajmal’s Sacrifice for Her. It’s a much less indolic and fresher version of Alien. It’s so good!
@Ksenja, it's important to let Khamrah mature. I started with a decant a few months after it was available, and then was rather disappointed with my actual bottle. It took a few months to become the stronger, delicious, well-balanced fragrance it is supposed to be. Khamrah càn last around 12-13hrs, even on dry skin, but if it has just 'travelled' it needs some chill time. I've also noticed that my newest bottle is a tad weaker than the first and smells a little different. I don't mind, because in the OG there was a note that became indolic on me every few weeks. I don't have that now. Every single time I wear it I'm being complemented. I actually was in the shopping street last week and the woman from the flower shop stopped me and said "Hey, you're the woman from the amazing perfume, right? Well, I went to the store you recommended and I got it!! I loooove it and so does my husband [wink]." It was so cute, as this lady is close to her pension, hihi. Anyway, you might like Khadlaj La Fede Intoxicate as well. It's a derivative of Khamrah, but with plum blossom. And that plum has quite the sweet, boozy effect and is a strong note. I really love it when I want something Khamrah-like (soooo happy you're not one of those reviewers who claim Khamrah is a close dupe for AS! How bad is your nose if you say that? Or is someone like that just parroting? ), but not Khamrah itself. Khadlaj has more interesting fragrances anyway, so it's worth a look (like that viral perfume oil Hareem Al Sultan... it has an actual perfume version now, if you hadn't seen yet). Lattafa gets all the screentime, but Swiss Arabian, Fragrance World, Khadlaj, Gulf Orchid, and Paris Corner are definitely brands that come close to Lattafa in making good dupes or great fragrances of their own.
BL is THAT girl. I'm on my 3rd bottle and Eclair is a nice dupe with a floral opening. CC to my nose is trash. Literally threw it in the trash, I could not give it away. The root beer plastic note was a dead no and that's after a few months.
Girl I agree with you the performance of the Arabian perfumes is in another level 🤌10/10 ! I would love from you to try Mazaaji by Lattafa and Qimmah for woman by Lattafa and if you love perfumes with a strong peach note try Sutoor by Lattafa ! I can't wait for your review regarding these fragrances
When I tell you that I had a Khamrah fixation all last fall and winter… I couldn’t bear to wear anything else. I just craved it daily for all those cold months. It is the most delicious perfume that I own.
Maybe it’s because I like rootbeer and can’t do SUPER strong perfumes, but I’m actually looking at the Caramel Cascade more right now. I love a nice vanilla but I need the light sugar version of what Bianco Latte is 😅
Girl, you HAVE to try the strawberry body oil from Glowrious and co! It seriously smells like the most juicy delicious strawberry! I got sooo many compliments from it and it lasts alllllll day!
Would you mind making a video of which deodorants you use with certain perfumes. 😅 I might be the only one, but I have to have deodorants that kinda smell similar to the perfume or body spray I'm wearing that day.
I want you to do THE DUA BRAND they have dupes, combos, and their own Fragrances. You have to try the guide in the dua brand...it's a copy for amouage guidance. Amazing unique smell !!!! The dua brand is all I'm doing lately!!!
Nahh girl you need to get Bianco Latte, it's the OG!!! Such good quality and longevity. It's rare to find long-lasting strong perfumes these days and Bianco latte just does it.
Enjoyed the video, as always! 💙My recommendation would be Belle by Al Haramain. Such a beautiful fragrance, and I also get slight Crystal Noir vibes here and there. It's creamy, vanilla-y and coconutty. 🥥 I don't really get the notes that are listed on Fragrantica.
So happy you did a M E frag haul bc they're inexpensive compared to other frags. Plus, the absolute fun you can have with buying multiple perfumes for the cost of 1 western brand. Loved the video.❤ ❤
For the Bianco Latte craze - I picked up Dua's dupe of it (White Milk) and I like it a lot. I just purchased Genre Parfum's dupe of it and can't wait to smell it as well. I don't know if I'll pick up Eclaire. You have intrigued me about Liam. I have never smelled Gris Charnel, but I may bite the bullet and pick it up.
Hi Ksenja Have you tried any Armaf perfumes? Probably, right. But have you tried CLUB de nuit INTENSE? It is so beautiful I ordered 2 backups. That says a lot! Try it, please. Rose, Saffron, Geranium Nutmeg, black pepper, caraway, violets Patchouli, vanilla,oud, and amber. So beautiful. 10/10 ❤🇨🇦 raine
Got a decant of Khamrah, on first spray I immediately didn’t like it as it was too strong for my taste. But I kept on smelling it and it’s like it’s growing on me. I like it but still too beast mode and I don’t think suitable for tropical mostly hot weather. Will buy a decant if Liam to test.
You review so well. Thank you⚘❤Many people like kayali vanilla 28. In my opinion, that perfume has received better reviews than it deserves. I think it smells bad! And I love vanilla scent. The one perfume smells very nice. Now I am going to try the Lattafa Eclaire and hope it smells good😊
A little recommandation: Lattafa Ameerat Al Arab 😄 smells like fruits with white florals (it has a jasmine note). I was pleasantly surprised with this one. Also, now I really want Eclaire but I can't find it in Canada 😅
Agree. I have it and Im about to sell it, idk if I got a bad one or not but it doesn’t smell like people were raving about? Supposed to be a dupe for dama bianca but Ive never smelled the original.
The way Kamrah dries down in my skin is just beautiful. The cinnamon calms down and I start to feel more the dates and it becomes a creamy smell. I'm also getting Eclaire because it smells like entering an Icecream store like Cold Stone. You smell the hot wafflecone, the creamy Icecreams and whipped cream, vanilla, cookie dough, caramel etc. 😂
You just made me pull the trigger for Eclaire, LOL 😂 I too will probably declutter my Caramel Cascade. I’ve been debating this in my head for a few weeks now cause of that weird liquorice/leather (?) note I’m getting!!
I have Bianco latte and recently got escapade gourmand and I’d say they’re 94% the same! Escapade is actually a hint more creamy with a hint more vanilla. BL has coumarin which adds a slight sharpness to it that a lot of people don’t love. So EG has the same smell but take away the slightly sharp note and add a TINY splash of high quality vanilla creamer, and you’re for it! Slightly less sharp, slightly more vanilla and slightly more creamy and blended! If I smelled both before buying, I actually would’ve purchased escapade gourmand over Bianco latte, even if I wasn’t on a budget. It’s 1/3 of the price and TRULY smells the shame. One other note is that BL is a BEAST MODE perfume. EG smells almost identical but it’s not beast mode, but it IS a STRONG scent, still! Which some people really don’t want beast mode perfumes, especially in office settings where those perfumes can just be way too strong! I made a tik tok reviewing EG and i was so shocked 😂 another reason I was surprised was because in my history of buying ARAB perfumes, they never smell great when I first buy them, but months later the smell transforms and smells so much better! When I got Nebras it literally smelled like just coco butter/tonka.. a year later, it smells like chocolate covered berries with vanilla- like not the same scent at ALL! Kamarha, Casablanca, Kismet Angel- like they smell soooo much better now , a year later, than they did when I first got them
@@marimar5279i agree with you. I own both and so many inspired versions (I love the scent profile of each) and there is a clear difference to my nose. Layered together is amazing as well.
Finally lol I was waiting on this, just commented on your other video about reviewing more Arabian perfumes. Do you know if there samples or smaller sizes of Eclair? I can't blind buy😭🤎
I smelt Eclaire before to buy it and I am so disappointed. It smelled so much like plastic, rubber and artificial caramel. The smell was some kind of too heavy and suffocating. I waited for the scent to linger on my skin, thinking it would change, but no. I tried so much to convince myself it HAD TO be amazing but the uncomfortable smell wasn't leaving. Caramel cascade also smelt like some kind of rubber but I think the first one I smelt had a lot of time to macerate. The only caramelly/vanila smell that I liked was Nebras and THE BEST one I smelt was actually a cheaper one but still lasts for 12+ hours : SUCRE NOIR by RP Paris. I already had the scented mist (and its AMAZING but doesn't last long because it's a mist) but the perfume is actually THE BEST UNFORCED CARAMEL PERFUME I HAVE EVER SMELT and it was only 23€. Caramel cascade and Eclaire probably both need to macerate and smell like rubber and plastic at first but when I buy a perfume, I don't want to wait for weeks or months before to wear it. Sucre Noir is PERFECT. Anyway people, don't buy a perfume online just because people talk about it, go smell it and don't waste your money on a smell you don't know! Everyone was talking about how amazing it is online but at the end of the day, it is always up to your nose and your nose only.
@@Blueberry_Diana thank you! I live in Puerto Rico and its humid and hot all year round… so some scents just dont work, usually anything to sweet. This sounds yummy but got nervous when i saw vanilla and tonka
I've been obsessed with these ME fragrance reviews. I have so many on the way! You would prob be interested in Quissa Delicious by Paris Corner and Khair Pistachio by Lataffa ;) Keep 'em coming Ksenja, love hearing your takes!
I can;t wait for your next videos of arabian perfumes! 1. VIBRANT VETIVER DELIGHT if you like BYREDO Bal D'Afrique, 2. Musamam White Intense , only positive reviews, everyone seems to be impressed, smells like niche (original,quality) very appealing, if you like Atomic Rose , apparently FA Paris Rose Explosion is the best dupe :)
If you like cozy vanilla almond fragrances, you should definitely try Sehr by Lattafa - I just received it today and omg I think it is one of my favorite Middle Eastern fragrances (and I probably have almost 100!). It is so, so good, so definitely give it a try - I think you will love it too! Definitely hoping you keep doing more ME fragrance reviews - I have to say they have some seriously amazing fragrances at such reasonable prices, you can't beat it.❤❤
That Eclair with Choco Musk combo 😍
Oh ...i have both ❤..will try 😅🤤
I will have to try them together
Yes! It's so good, and add in Nebras, Qissa Delicious, Chocolate Greedy, Yum Boujee Marshmallow, Yum Pistachio Gelato and Vanilla 28 in any order or combo and it's amazing. I've been building up a base of loads of these gourmands then adding one last scent on top like Angel's Share (or any dupe) and omg, it's divine.

What is the lasting power ?
Love Bianco Latte but I would choose Eclaire for the price difference too, if it smells close enough.
I just decluttered Caramel Cascade bc mine smells like rubber lol. I love Eclaire way more!! That Girt Viral Vanilla from Oakcha smells like Eclaire. I love both of those so much.
If you had to declutter one, would it be eclair or oakcha that girl?
@@whitneydavis9423 I would keep Oakcha bc I like the atomizer better and I feel like it is a step up from Eclaire but they are both good 😆
@brittanyrae_beauty, what is the lasting power ?

My eclaire and caramel cascade smells identical. I get rootbeer in both . I actually love it because of that.
Bianco latte is my fav vanilla fragrance 100% worth the money quality and longitivity and the compliments it gets me chefs 💋
Yes
Please try khair Pistachio which is close dupe to yum pistachio gelato
Khamrah Qahwa is also very beautiful but even better, more balanced and less sweet.
Khair Pistcahio. 🤤🤤👌🏻
You should try Khair Pistachio. So good. 😊
Yes!!! I loveeee Khair Pistachio 💚
Yes please review khair pistachio
I need Ksenja to review Pistachio Khair, I only trust her when it comes to perfume recommendations😭
So good. Affection as well
Did you let yours sit? All I smell is gross. I don't understand the description people give about it. 😅 it's like a bug spray or cheap perfume from a beauty supply to me. For reference I love eclaire.

I'm in love with Al Rehab Soft! So yummy and girly!! You should try!! :]
Liam is so much better it has more vanilla. As it get older the more the vanilla shines my bf loves to wear it too.

I didn't...l bought the full bottle😢It has a very powdery smell which l didn't like....an old fashioned smell.....maybe it doesn't suit my body chemistry. Will try this week but gave me headache and l don't get headache 😅 x
Alot of people don't know about sugar baby and so sweet ...both of which are roll on perfumes from lataffa
Love Kamrah. It is so addictive to me. I am so happy you like it, given the fact it is compared to Angel Share. I actually did not like Angels' Share either.
yeeaah,that is why the middle eastern fragrances are slaying !!!
Just ordered eclaire I have kamra just love and the longer any of the latafa perfumes sit the better they get.i have shagaf oud and I've had it about4ish years. And it smells absolutely beautiful now.i mean it always has but it macerated and the smell is so smooth now
Hi Ksenja! Would you be willing to buy that girl viral vanilla by oakcha and compare it to eclair? Which one would you recommend from eclair and that girl?
Because of you I got lataffa Ana abiyedh and I love it so much! One of my favorites now. Now I’m looking for more pear fragrances.
I've been eyeing that one, is it the unisex or the poudree version?
I did too but it smells like plastic to me :( I let it sit for about s year and it still smells like that
Beware the ana Abiyedh with the white cap.... mine dryed down to a skanky oud note that lasted for 5 days on cloths.. I had to donate it : (
I love Gris Charnel so you know I had to add Liam to cart immediately! I tried the DUA dupe for it and it smell’s nothing like it. So I’m happy to take your word for Liam because you’ve never steered me wrong! ❤
I have Bianco Latte and Eclair. I mostly always want to have the original perfume in my collection - except for Bianco Latte. I will never repurchase BL. I LOVE the scent - all 10 minutes of it! 😆 Yes, it stays on my sweaters forever, but I go nose-blind by it so quickly. As for Eclair - I enjoyed all seven-plus hours of my scent bubble. IMO, it performs much better than BL.
Khamrah and Eclaire are thee Middle Eastern gourmand dupe goats fr. Khamrah doesn't smell boozy like Angel's Share and it has a more apple pie with creamy dates vibe. It's so good, no wonder it's now higher on the list on Fragrantica.
Ah yes, the Caramel Cascade vs Eclaire. I also get root beer with Caramel Cascade. After watching this I went to find the bottle I had put in my destash box to see if it had macerated. It's been there like 4 months now, and it has changed but only a little. I still get like a root beer/wet concrete vibe in it though there is more vanilla caramel behind it than before. I don't know, I think it's still going to be destashed. But Eclaire, now that one is a beautiful gem. I love it!!! I know I'd probably love Bianco Latte as well, but I don't have the budget for that and Eclaire scratches the itch so to speak. Liam didn't start out very well on me either but that one has macerated beautifully and I love wearing it. I can't wear Gris Charnel or things like Santal 33 because they smell like rubbing alcohol and dill pickles on my skin, but Liam I can now wear and happy about it. Same story with Khamrah, I initially got a lot of woody alcohol in it but it's macerated into the most beautiful spicy gourmand fragrance I think I have and I do also love Angel's Share too. I think most people don't feel that Khamrah is a dupe for Angel's Share but more closely similar to Dates Delight, and I would agree with that. I am totally in love with Middle Eastern fragrances and since the weather has turned cool I have been wearing and layering with all of them exclusively.
I've gotten several arab perfumes now and so far Nebras and Eclair are the only ones that have been good from the get go. Btw to me both are very similar. Eclaire is Nebras minus the minty green note and more ln the lactonic side, creamier.
Thanks i was hesitant between the 2
I just received eclair by Lataffa today and I like it more than Bianco latte I find it just a tad sweeter
I'm just TRYING to get my hands on Eclaire. I bought a sample of Bianco Latte and several dupes (Caramel Cascade, Eclaire and a sample from a local perfumer who made a dupe) and the best dupe is Eclaire hands down! Compared to the other dupes, Eclaire is the more well rounded, more smooth and more complete to me. But unfortunately here in Singapore, it's sold out everywhere I try to find it and that sucks! I can't find any sites that will ship internationally to SG. I REALLY hope Lattafa restocks it soon.
A great layering tool I’ve been loving lately is BBW Sweetheart Cherry; layers beautifully with Khamra, Lovefest Burning Cherry, Pistachio scents, Black Opium, Nebras.. it’s a banger.
Recently bought Mystique Bouquet because of all the Valaya hype; not nearly as smooth and to me, has a screechy synthetic musk I don’t care for. BUT it smells great on my daughter..it’s just not on the same level as Valaya imo.
Khamrah Qahwa is way better to me than the OG; has toned down the cinnamon and feels better blended..plus has a light coffee note.
Nebras is veryyyyy similar to Eilish.. just has to macerate. Another one I’ve let macerate and love now is Ajmal’s Sacrifice for Her. It’s a much less indolic and fresher version of Alien. It’s so good!
I love bianco latte so much!
@Ksenja, it's important to let Khamrah mature. I started with a decant a few months after it was available, and then was rather disappointed with my actual bottle. It took a few months to become the stronger, delicious, well-balanced fragrance it is supposed to be. Khamrah càn last around 12-13hrs, even on dry skin, but if it has just 'travelled' it needs some chill time. I've also noticed that my newest bottle is a tad weaker than the first and smells a little different. I don't mind, because in the OG there was a note that became indolic on me every few weeks. I don't have that now.
Every single time I wear it I'm being complemented. I actually was in the shopping street last week and the woman from the flower shop stopped me and said "Hey, you're the woman from the amazing perfume, right? Well, I went to the store you recommended and I got it!! I loooove it and so does my husband [wink]." It was so cute, as this lady is close to her pension, hihi.
Anyway, you might like Khadlaj La Fede Intoxicate as well. It's a derivative of Khamrah, but with plum blossom. And that plum has quite the sweet, boozy effect and is a strong note. I really love it when I want something Khamrah-like (soooo happy you're not one of those reviewers who claim Khamrah is a close dupe for AS! How bad is your nose if you say that? Or is someone like that just parroting? ), but not Khamrah itself.
Khadlaj has more interesting fragrances anyway, so it's worth a look (like that viral perfume oil Hareem Al Sultan... it has an actual perfume version now, if you hadn't seen yet). Lattafa gets all the screentime, but Swiss Arabian, Fragrance World, Khadlaj, Gulf Orchid, and Paris Corner are definitely brands that come close to Lattafa in making good dupes or great fragrances of their own.
Definitely need to get Maison Alhambra Satin pud for $19, it's amaaaazing! ❤ oh and layer it with BBW Dark Kiss.
BL is THAT girl. I'm on my 3rd bottle and Eclair is a nice dupe with a floral opening. CC to my nose is trash. Literally threw it in the trash, I could not give it away. The root beer plastic note was a dead no and that's after a few months.
Girl I agree with you the performance of the Arabian perfumes is in another level 🤌10/10 ! I would love from you to try Mazaaji by Lattafa and Qimmah for woman by Lattafa and if you love perfumes with a strong peach note try Sutoor by Lattafa ! I can't wait for your review regarding these fragrances
When I tell you that I had a Khamrah fixation all last fall and winter… I couldn’t bear to wear anything else. I just craved it daily for all those cold months. It is the most delicious perfume that I own.
Maybe it’s because I like rootbeer and can’t do SUPER strong perfumes, but I’m actually looking at the Caramel Cascade more right now. I love a nice vanilla but I need the light sugar version of what Bianco Latte is 😅
I have a bunch of Lattafa, including Liam and Khamra. ❤
Girl, you HAVE to try the strawberry body oil from Glowrious and co! It seriously smells like the most juicy delicious strawberry! I got sooo many compliments from it and it lasts alllllll day!
off topic but I luv the crisp audio quality
Would you mind making a video of which deodorants you use with certain perfumes. 😅 I might be the only one, but I have to have deodorants that kinda smell similar to the perfume or body spray I'm wearing that day.
I want you to do THE DUA BRAND they have dupes, combos, and their own Fragrances. You have to try the guide in the dua brand...it's a copy for amouage guidance. Amazing unique smell !!!! The dua brand is all I'm doing lately!!!
Ohh I've never heard of Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin from B&BW and now I want it!
Nahh girl you need to get Bianco Latte, it's the OG!!! Such good quality and longevity. It's rare to find long-lasting strong perfumes these days and Bianco latte just does it.
Sweet cinnamon pumpkin was my favorite of all time for so long
Enjoyed the video, as always! 💙My recommendation would be Belle by Al Haramain. Such a beautiful fragrance, and I also get slight Crystal Noir vibes here and there. It's creamy, vanilla-y and coconutty. 🥥 I don't really get the notes that are listed on Fragrantica.
Caramel cascade is getting better and better to me as it sits but that’s my nose and I love eclair and viral vanilla may still get Bianco latte
In case anyone is wondering bianco latte isn’t crazy expensive. I got mine for 127 usd
$127 is high for people who have bills, kids and live paycheck to paycheck! Smh! Not everyone is rich! 🤦♀️💯
So happy you did a M E frag haul bc they're inexpensive compared to other frags. Plus, the absolute fun you can have with buying multiple perfumes for the cost of 1 western brand. Loved the video.❤ ❤
For the Bianco Latte craze - I picked up Dua's dupe of it (White Milk) and I like it a lot. I just purchased Genre Parfum's dupe of it and can't wait to smell it as well. I don't know if I'll pick up Eclaire. You have intrigued me about Liam. I have never smelled Gris Charnel, but I may bite the bullet and pick it up.
Hi Ksenja
Have you tried any Armaf perfumes? Probably, right.
But have you tried CLUB de nuit INTENSE? It is so beautiful I ordered 2 backups. That says a lot! Try it, please.
Rose, Saffron, Geranium
Nutmeg, black pepper, caraway, violets
Patchouli, vanilla,oud, and amber.
So beautiful.
10/10
❤🇨🇦 raine
Got a decant of Khamrah, on first spray I immediately didn’t like it as it was too strong for my taste. But I kept on smelling it and it’s like it’s growing on me. I like it but still too beast mode and I don’t think suitable for tropical mostly hot weather.
Will buy a decant if Liam to test.
You review so well. Thank you⚘❤Many people like kayali vanilla 28. In my opinion, that perfume has received better reviews than it deserves. I think it smells bad! And I love vanilla scent. The one perfume smells very nice. Now I am going to try the Lattafa Eclaire and hope it smells good😊
You should twist then pull the lid of khamrah before it may brake like mine did 😊
I have the original bianco latte and ummmmm girrrl you need the real one it’s amazing ❤ I have some dupes and nooooo nothing like the original
A little recommandation: Lattafa Ameerat Al Arab 😄 smells like fruits with white florals (it has a jasmine note). I was pleasantly surprised with this one. Also, now I really want Eclaire but I can't find it in Canada 😅
Finally got my hands on Eclaire and love it so much. ❤
Ksenja you really really made my day Today because since morning I am not well and you don't even know that how much I am loving your videos🥹💓💓💓
I'd like to see your opinion on a vanilla scent Al Haramain Junoon Noir.
Agree. I have it and Im about to sell it, idk if I got a bad one or not but it doesn’t smell like people were raving about? Supposed to be a dupe for dama bianca but Ive never smelled the original.
Yay, you got Liam! It’s sooooooooo good. Now back to the video. I love a Middle Eastern haul ❤
The way Kamrah dries down in my skin is just beautiful. The cinnamon calms down and I start to feel more the dates and it becomes a creamy smell. I'm also getting Eclaire because it smells like entering an Icecream store like Cold Stone. You smell the hot wafflecone, the creamy Icecreams and whipped cream, vanilla, cookie dough, caramel etc. 😂
Eclair is not a "spot on" dupe of Bianco Latte.
The dry down is the same as the dry down of Bianco Latte but the openings are completely different.
Yep
There's another one called cocktail. Intense, and it smells just like that 1. Except this one has more vanilla. They're both are amazing
I also bought the Liam , it is amazing.. 🎉.
You just made me pull the trigger for Eclaire, LOL 😂 I too will probably declutter my Caramel Cascade. I’ve been debating this in my head for a few weeks now cause of that weird liquorice/leather (?) note I’m getting!!
You have to try the flanker to Khamrah. It is sweeter and more gourmand It is called Khamrah Qahwa!
It’s coffee
Try lattafa musammam white intense , khamrah qahwa, badee al oud sublime , Paris corner Khair pistachio
I have Bianco latte and recently got escapade gourmand and I’d say they’re 94% the same! Escapade is actually a hint more creamy with a hint more vanilla. BL has coumarin which adds a slight sharpness to it that a lot of people don’t love. So EG has the same smell but take away the slightly sharp note and add a TINY splash of high quality vanilla creamer, and you’re for it! Slightly less sharp, slightly more vanilla and slightly more creamy and blended!
If I smelled both before buying, I actually would’ve purchased escapade gourmand over Bianco latte, even if I wasn’t on a budget. It’s 1/3 of the price and TRULY smells the shame.
One other note is that BL is a BEAST MODE perfume.
EG smells almost identical but it’s not beast mode, but it IS a STRONG scent, still!
Which some people really don’t want beast mode perfumes, especially in office settings where those perfumes can just be way too strong!
I made a tik tok reviewing EG and i was so shocked 😂 another reason I was surprised was because in my history of buying ARAB perfumes, they never smell great when I first buy them, but months later the smell transforms and smells so much better! When I got Nebras it literally smelled like just coco butter/tonka.. a year later, it smells like chocolate covered berries with vanilla- like not the same scent at ALL!
Kamarha, Casablanca, Kismet Angel- like they smell soooo much better now , a year later, than they did when I first got them
Noo they are not similar at all, yes they are both super sweet and gourmand but they are different perfumes
@@marimar5279 that’s your opinion.
I have both and sprayed one on each wrist and I found them to be nearly the same
@@mlayne130 Bianco Latte is much better value for money tho
@@marimar5279i agree with you. I own both and so many inspired versions (I love the scent profile of each) and there is a clear difference to my nose. Layered together is amazing as well.
I just ordered the Liam Grey . Will be here on Sat..
Finally lol I was waiting on this, just commented on your other video about reviewing more Arabian perfumes. Do you know if there samples or smaller sizes of Eclair? I can't blind buy😭🤎
Try Lattafa Affection, it’s the better version of yum pistachio
Affection is good..but Khair Pistachio is much better ...🥰😋🤤👌🏼
I smelt Eclaire before to buy it and I am so disappointed. It smelled so much like plastic, rubber and artificial caramel. The smell was some kind of too heavy and suffocating. I waited for the scent to linger on my skin, thinking it would change, but no. I tried so much to convince myself it HAD TO be amazing but the uncomfortable smell wasn't leaving. Caramel cascade also smelt like some kind of rubber but I think the first one I smelt had a lot of time to macerate.
The only caramelly/vanila smell that I liked was Nebras and THE BEST one I smelt was actually a cheaper one but still lasts for 12+ hours : SUCRE NOIR by RP Paris. I already had the scented mist (and its AMAZING but doesn't last long because it's a mist) but the perfume is actually THE BEST UNFORCED CARAMEL PERFUME I HAVE EVER SMELT and it was only 23€. Caramel cascade and Eclaire probably both need to macerate and smell like rubber and plastic at first but when I buy a perfume, I don't want to wait for weeks or months before to wear it. Sucre Noir is PERFECT.
Anyway people, don't buy a perfume online just because people talk about it, go smell it and don't waste your money on a smell you don't know!
Everyone was talking about how amazing it is online but at the end of the day, it is always up to your nose and your nose only.
And your body chemistry just probably doesn't go with the perfume
Was waiting for it so bad 😍 thank you
Just got liam grey today and i’m in loveeee😍😍😍 so smooth and creamy
And i do agree with you it reminds me of crystal noir a lot and i’m so here for it
Would u say its humid hot summer friendly?
@@modest.vanity yess very summer friendly i leave in Senegal west Africa and i’ve worn it in extreme heat and it lasts all day
@@Blueberry_Diana thank you! I live in Puerto Rico and its humid and hot all year round… so some scents just dont work, usually anything to sweet. This sounds yummy but got nervous when i saw vanilla and tonka
Hi Ksenja!
Try layering Khamrah with Eclaire and see what you think! I look forward to your videos. Have a great day!
I've been obsessed with these ME fragrance reviews. I have so many on the way! You would prob be interested in Quissa Delicious by Paris Corner and Khair Pistachio by Lataffa ;) Keep 'em coming Ksenja, love hearing your takes!
I can;t wait for your next videos of arabian perfumes! 1. VIBRANT VETIVER DELIGHT if you like BYREDO Bal D'Afrique, 2. Musamam White Intense , only positive reviews, everyone seems to be impressed, smells like niche (original,quality) very appealing, if you like Atomic Rose , apparently FA Paris Rose Explosion is the best dupe :)
I’m here for the middle eastern perfumes. Loooove kamrah. Try their Qawha!
Yes I also have the e claire It smells so amazing🤍🤍🤍🤍
You need to try khamrah qahwa and nebras!
If you like cozy vanilla almond fragrances, you should definitely try Sehr by Lattafa - I just received it today and omg I think it is one of my favorite Middle Eastern fragrances (and I probably have almost 100!). It is so, so good, so definitely give it a try - I think you will love it too! Definitely hoping you keep doing more ME fragrance reviews - I have to say they have some seriously amazing fragrances at such reasonable prices, you can't beat it.❤❤
Oh, I need to try
Now you have to try Khamrah Qahwa 😅 I've heard it's even better!
Hey Ksenja can you kindly recommend fron Lattafa eclair and Billie eilish no1 which one is more vanilla prominent and attractive?
If you like Liam Grey, then you should try the 1887 antique collection
Eclair is sooo good
I don't know Bianca Latte..but i love the Caramel Cascade.. smells so yummy on my skin..🥰🤤😋.. Eclair is good..but i Love the Caramel Cascade more
