I don't have any of these three, nor certain still if I would love them, but you presentation is just so feminine that I love your presentation. So I appreciate your feminine perspective being so authentic.
Thank you very much for your kind words, I appreciate them a lot Carlton! ✨️ Let me know how you feel about the fragrances if you decide to try them, I hope you'll enjoy them.
I like Shaghaf Oud but I LOVE Oud Mood. The original non reformulated version which I have has the same lasting power of the Swiss Arabian and IMO is more rich and particular because I go crazy for incense notes. The first time I sprayed Shaghaf Oud I liked it a lot and I was really impressed by the lasting power and sillage, but the first time I sprayed Oud Mood... Really I was shocked because it was love at first sniff. It's so magical and deep, with a lot of nuances - incense, saffron, caramel, rose. Lasting power 1.5 days, and I can smell it for days and days on the clothes and on the pillow. You own a reformulated version for sure. When I bought it blindly, I thought to receive a dupe of Shaghaf Oud, but luckily it was far better. Thanks for your review, I was waiting for such a direct comparison to confirm my opinion. I don't own the Sheykh al Shuyuk, I avoided to buy it because I don't like cinnamon, I smell this note also in the Raghba one and I hate it, also because I find it too sweet. I own many grave from the UAE and my favourite is always Oud Mood 💘
Most likely I have the reformulated version:( Oh how I wish I could've smelled Oud Mood before reformulation, most likely it would've been love at first sniff for me too ❤️ (I absolutely love incense in my fragrances). Such a shame what Lattafa is doing to its fragrances, they've reformulated Sheikh al Shuyukh as well, the bottle that I have (from 2017) smells very different to what I smell in the stores now, it lost its depth and power. Which year is your Oud Mood from? Maybe I can still find it at some suppliers and get it 🤗
Ohhh thank you so much for saying all the good things about Sheikh Lux Edition. I always hating sickening sweet fragrances and I afraid that I'll not enjoy this one, but you're the reason why I decide to blind bought it. Such a stunning fragrance, smell much more expensive than the price. It is like the combination of Mancera Rose Vannile and Portrait of a lady, a favorite of mine but way too expensive, I can smell the incense, rose, sweet vanilla in this. I feel like I'm a royal family member when wearing this one. 😍
Hi dear, this makes me so happy, I'm glad you're enjoying it and it makes you feel amazing, this was my first love when it comes to middle eastern fragrances ❤🤗 Thank you for trusting my recommendations 🌟
Ibought oud mood and yara because of you and another shagaf oud for my boyfriend because he loves it and its just so amazing!!!! I also ordered choco musk! ❤
to my nose, i smell more incense in Oud Mood, I smell more of the saffron in Shaghaf Oud and more of the caramel and cinnamon in the Sheikh al Shuyukh luxe. all three are someof my favorites. great review.
I love Shaghaf Oud. I wear it to bed, I wear it for work in all seasons. If someone's offended while at work oh well they want us in the office hybrid. Love it!!! Smells like praline and marshmallows to me mixed with coffee.
@@AFragrantGlanceI have about 350 perfumes. Beautiful perfumes. But I think that Shaghaf Oud is actually the best Arabic scent made. If not. Just a very good scent of all my perfumes. I don’t wear it often. Because I love to wear different perfumes. Shaghaf Oud was my first Arabic perfume. I love the golden bottle too. My dad likes it very much too.
I received my shaghf oud today, It is amazing and from all reviews i thaught it should be very strong and was expecting it to be too much. But it is absolutely beautiful . It is a warm pleasant scent like a luxury thick silk wrapping you . It is veryyyyy pleasant perfume.
Yeey I'm so happy to hear you're enjoying it, it's such a beautiful fragrance ❤️🎉 Could you kindly let me know if it has the arabic writing on the bottle? 🌟
I have purchased shagaf oud after watching your reviews and i love it.i have sniffed real oud at the shop and the oud in shagaf is very very mild and just a sweet vanilla caramel fragramce with just a touch of oud in background, extremely easy to wear and very mass pleasing. Shagaf oud smells very similar to mercedes benz club black which i have but mercedes one is more "western" with no oud.
So happy to hear you're enjoying it! ❤ It's such a beautiful and versatile fragrance. I've never tried Mercedes Benz Club Black but good to know it's similar to Shaghaf Oud, cause I had it on my "to try" list 😊
@@AFragrantGlance I don't think they smell similar! Please get Mercedes Benz Club Black! It is so good and definitely unisex. It smells more similar to Casablanca than Shaghaf Oud but less sweet and more spice. It's a stunning fragrance! I love layering it with Roses Vanille from Mancera.
Your comparison here was on point. I've just got Sheikh Al Shuyukh and I love it. I'm wearing it with Scent Salim Amber oil. 😍 I don't get the hate on the opening for this one, but I guess it's all subjective depending on what you like.
So happy to hear you're loving it 🥳 Now I don't wear it as much because it has a very nostalgic smell to me but it's such a special fragrance for me and I love how it smells 🌠 Thank you for watching my dear and thank you for trusting my recommendations, I'm always happy to hear they're working for you 🌹❤🤗
Normally I’m not into female reviewers nor do I like to listen to non native English speakers but you are sooooo detail oriented , such good verbal intelligence, poetic language , good communication skills . You are Amazing as a reviewer!
I received Sheikh Al Shuyukh today and on the first couple sprays, I wasn’t loving it- came back to it after it settled and WOW❤❤❤it’s sprayed on my nightgown😂😂😂
Hi, I'm from Malaysia and really like the way you elaborate on the perfume, and the comparison. We have here in Malaysia many reformulated version of most of Lattafa, Ard Al Zaffaran, I think, because as if the strength is toned down and also we have many Lattafa fakes from China. But at least it will be written on the boxes that the fakes are made in P.R.C.. People Republic of China. But the packaging and the bottling is exact copy. The scent and pricing however is different. For non fake Lattafas, the longevity and the projection is still very good but they are no longer projecting as as strong as years ago. However the Middle East/Dubai perfume are still better than the designers' perfume here, which are always meek, don't project well and don't last at all, 1-2 hours top, which I suspect are mostly good quality watered down fakes done by syndicate in S.E.Asia with insider access to the parcels. Salvatorre Ferragamo and rep
Oud Mood smelled too synthetic to me (I have a sample)... I have the other two bottles. Oud Mood resembles Sheikh Al Shuyukh more than Shaghaf Oud. But Sheikh Al Shuyukh is more classy. Shaghaf Oud is my favorite out of all 3 because I love the gourmand nuances
Thank you for such an in depth review. I’m even more confused though. All of these scents sound different and beautiful! I’m new to Oud and am looking for a starting point. I’m looking for an oudwith good projection, staying power and one that can be layered with easily. I do love sweet scents also
Thank you for watching! 🤗🌹All three share slight similar facets but then they go in different directions and different notes shine. Which one do you feel more drawn to? If you feel a connection with one in particular go for that one. Many people love Oud Mood from Lattafa as an introductory scent to the world of oud and middle eastern fragrances, personally I'd recommend you to start with Shaghaf Oud - the oud accord is very friendly yet present and it's enveloped by beautiful sweet accords so it leaves a lot of room to play with it in different layering combinations (with different oils, body lotions/ body butters, even other EDPs). I love to layer this fragrance and it is ultra versatile from this perspective. It's stronger than Oud Mood but not strong to the point of being suffocating, I received along the years amazing feedback on it. If you try it make sure you give it time and let me know your thoughts on it. 💫
@@AFragrantGlance I took a chance and blind bought Shahaf Oud, it will be delivered on Tuesday. I chose that one because I feel like that scent resonates the best with my love for sweet bold scents. I chose it before reading your comment so I’m not feeling even better about my choice after reading your reply!! I plan to give it time and expect that I will enjoy the journey! Thank you again. I really enjoy your content and videos.🥰
@@AFragrantGlance I had to come back and let you know that I received Shaghaf oud today and OMG I love it so much!!!! Thank you again. This will remain in my collection
I have Oud Mood and Sheikh Al Shuyukh, still waiting for my Shaghaf Oud. I cannot just wear Oud mood at work because my colleagues are not really into mid eastern frags. I love Sheikh Al Shuyukh better.
Thank you for watching dear! ❤️ I'm glad to hear you're enjoying Sheikh al Shuyukh by Lattafa, let me know your thoughts on Shaghaf Oud, I hope you'll enjoy it as well 🤗
In my Top 5 - Sheikh Al Shuyukh Luxe Edition! I can not get enough of this in the winter! Like being wrapped in a big cashmere cozy sweater sipping coffee by the fire! I think I am going to go home and smell it lol. Do you like Chinatown too?
AAZ Safeer al oud is almost the same as Shaghaf oud to me and very sweet...What do you think about it? If you can compare them with performance because I don't have a Shaghaf oud gold bottle... Big greetings ❤
Greeting to you as well, thank you for watching! ❤️ Yes, they are definitely in the same scent family, to me Safeer al Oud smells like a very sweet caramel/ praline accord with a slightly barnyard oud accord but the two blend very well together. Shaghaf Oud to my nose is slightly more complex ( you have sweet red rose there as well with a touch of saffron and some woodsy facets in the background). Unless you really enjoy this scent family it might be redundant to have both, persoanlly I love it, I have both but I've used Shaghaf Oud more throughout the years as I love to wear it layered with Oud Aswad. Performance wise Shaghaf Oud (I have the version with the arabic writing on the bottle) is a beast mode on every aspect, Safeer al Oud is not as loud but has a decent performance. 💫
I wish I could have smelled Shelik Al Shuyukh before reformulation. I just received it and Oud Mood and Oud Mood is way stronger. SAS still projects but not as strong as OM. I could smell it before I opened it. They do have a similar DNA to them, but I can tell them apart. I want to get Shaghaf Oud also but I don't want 3 fragrances that smell similar and no one can tell apart. Is Shaghaf Oud different enough to purchase?
is it too much on the feminine side cuz i read a lot of reviews that its too sweet for a man , im looking to cop SAS but i wanna know if its for a guy or no
@@AFragrantGlance tbh my taste in fragrance is all over the place i like a lot of different scents , and living in dubai made me fall in love with emarati style oud , right now im looking for a really oudy type of fragrance and sheikh al shuyukh caught my attention but a lot of people say its too feminine
I discovered your Channel today! You're beautiful and I do love your way to explain fragrances!😍 I'm looking for a new oriental fragrance... I just have Inara Oud by Swiss Arabian (it's supposed to be a dupe for Shaghaf Oud). Can you recommend something woody, with incense, but sweet, performing very good and long lasting? I'm really focused on Sheikh Al Shuyukh Luxe edition. Thank you so much!😊
Welcome my dear, I am happy to have you here 🤗 Thank you for your kind words. The first fragrance that popped in my mind was Majd al Sultan by Asdaaf but I remember you bought it and love it, some others you could look up are Qaa'ed by Lattafa, Amber Oud Tobacco by Al Haramain and Oud Aswad by Swiss Arabian, look them up and see if they sound like something you would enjoy. Thank you for watching ❤️🌹
Thank you for watching ❤️🌹 Honestly I haven't worn Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe in the longest time as it's more of a nostalgic fragrance for me now, but I remember the cinnamon stayed for a good few hours. It's a beautiful one to try if you enjoy cinnamon, another one I would highly highly recommend for cinnamon lovers is Amber Oud Tobacco Edition by Al Haramain (similar to Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford) it's such a gorgeous fragrance, I recently uploaded a review for that one as well, feel free to check it out🌠
Hey, lovely video review! Big fan of Shaghaf oud and just ordred Oud Mood to see what it smells like. What is the name of the Shaghaf dupe you mentioned towards the end of the video? Would love to search for it and try it :)
Hi, thank you for watching ❤ Let me know your thoughts on Oud Mood. The fragrance similar to Shaghaf Oud is called Riwayat al Oud by Afnan, very similar to Shaghaf Oud I can only tell slight nuances appart, but Shaghaf Oud has better performance, but it's a great alternative now that Swiss Arabian reformulated Shaghaf Oud
You have to reapply oud mod throughout the day? Oud mood kick, punch and fist fight the whole day. I hate it cuz its masculine, my partner loves it so i gave it to him
Hi darling, I bought both shaghaf and oud mood and both but specially oud mood has medicinal dentist office smell of hand sanitizer in it.. I think it’s the saffron because it’s chemically made and not saffron.. it’s awful smelling I have to shower and wash my clothes after it.. but I love oud.. is there a female sweet oud without this awful smell of saffron .. it’s a lot less in shaghaf but I still smell it.. I bought oud in the Middle East and it was beautiful and didn’t smell like this at all. I would love your recommendation
I love sheikh al shuyukh! Can you please recommend some similar fragrances that aren't as oud forward but still have gourmand middle eastern dna with the amber + caramel? I didn't like shaghaf oud because it was too oudy but SAS is perfect to me.
Hi dear, I think you would enjoy Oud Mood by Lattafa or Oud al Sayad by Ard al Zaafaran. They smell kind of similar, but Oud al Sayad is darker, sweeter and heavier on caramel, it has a hint of oud but not as strong as Shaghaf Oud, while Oud Mood is lighter. But out of the two, if you enjoy amber/resins + caramel I really think you would enjoy Oud al Sayad by Ard al Zaafaran ❤️
I have all three. And I love them all. Do I need each one of them?... No. But I love the little nuances. If I had to choose, I would go with oud mood...
Hi There i finally got Shaghaf Oud and i simply love it!!🎉 the dried down smells very fimiliar😊..thn it struck me smells like Sh Al Shuyukh..yes u are right they are different but similar in the dried down to me which i love.😊 Would like to know , on my bottle of Shaghaf Oud the name is written in English..is there a difference in the bottle with Arabic writing?
Yeey I'm so happy to hear that, enjoy your new fragrance to the fullest!! 🥳 I can't see my collection without that fragrance. I haven't tried myself the version without the arabic writing but from the feedback that I got this version with the english writing only seems to be a tad softer and more subdued compared to the older formulations. Scent wise I haven't heard of any differences, it's just the performance that differs. Thank you for watching and thank you for sharing your feedback on it 🌹❤️
@@AFragrantGlance Hi yes I can definitely understand u have to have Shaghaf in ur collection....I have to get a back up bottle asap:)) I never want to be without Shaghaf Oud :) Oh OK I dont mind then if I have the English writing seeing it's just a tad bit softer....but LOVE the smell....for all seasons:)))) thank you for ur response I do appreciate it ×
Its a great review ❤️ I am very new to oud game, however i like armaf club de nuit intense women one, that oud is smooth n sexy Wanna buy lattafa oud mood Will that be a good blind buy? I don’t want hard masculine vibe rather prefer soft rose vanilla thing Can you suggest
Thank you for watching dear!! ❤️ Oud Mood is a beautiful fragrance to start your oud collection with, I think you will enjoy it. The fragrance is soft, the oud there is smooth and easy to enjoy, it has a sweetness to it, it's not bothering at all, to me it even leans on the feminine side. 🤗 If you get it let me know how you feel about it!!
My Sheikh al Shuyukh is from 2016/ 2017 and I don't have a problem with the performance, but I've heard that the Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe sold now doesn't last as long. Oud Mood is from 2020 (performs quite poor) and Shaghaf Oud also from 2020 (this one performs really well on my skin). Hope it helped! 😊
I've ordered Shaikh Al Shuyukh Luxe Edition for my mother 66 yrso...what do u think, is it appropriate for her?.....BTW great content....new subscriber just landed 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
I think fragrances have no age, anyone should wear whatever makes them happy. 🥰 How did she feel about the fragrance? Did she enjoy it? How nice of you to purchase fragrances for her, it's always such a special gift and she'll associate the fragrances with you. Thank you for watching 🤗🌹
@@AFragrantGlance She love it....very strong performance and luxurious smell....the oud is very prominent and she was well impressed by the bottle and cap design.....❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi ,im planning to get Shagaf oud in the future but l just found sheikh al shuyukh for a great price (18 euros)... Are they really different enough to have both,l don't like having similar scents cause it's so hard to use them all up when ypu have many, l really like cinnamon note tho... The one from JPG la Belle le parfum is to die for
Thank you for watching 🌹❤ Ohh I adore La Belle Le Parfum it's such a gorgeous seductive fragrance. To me they're different enough however they do share some similarities, both are sweet red roses one with cinnamon, patchouli, caramel and woody accrods and the other one with saffron, oud & praline. Personally I love both, when I smell them I could easily tell them apart, they are not sisters, more like cousins. Let me know your thoughts on the one you choose to get 🎊
@@AFragrantGlance Hi! ❤️ I've ordered sheikh al shuyukh, still awaiting for it. I would really like to get Shagaf too but l can't find it for adorable price in EU (Croatia), Notino charges way to much compered to US sites ,also couldn't find reasonable options on ebay or amazon (shipping is either expensive or not available at all to my country). Can't wait to try sheikh al shuyukh!
Hi !! I am a new subscriber!!😍 love your reviews and I just started recently with middle eastern fragrances and I would like to ask you which is in your opinion the best oud fragrance. Do you know by any chance the brand Khalis? 😘🍀 p.s. you are gorgeous 😻
Hi dear, I'm happy to have you here and thank you for you kind words ❤️🤗 It's so hard to choose one oud scent, oud is something so personal cause it'a all about finding that combo that works for you. I have a few which I love but I would recommend to test them prior if you have the chance, cause it's not the most easy to enjoy smell in fragrances. Some of my favourites are Oud Aswad by Swiss Arabian, Shaghaf Oud by Swiss Arabian (but the version with the arabic writing on it), Bidun Esam by Ahmed al Maghribi (amazing amazing rose oud combo it smells so luxurious), Rose Wood by Ajmal (beginner oud), Badiah Gold by Junaid, Areej al Sheila by Swiss Arabian and Ameer al Oudh Intense Oudh by Lattafa (this one is great for layering and easy to enjoy oud scent). Look these ones up and see if any of them sound like something you would enjoy. I've had some oils from Khalis in the past but I am not very familiar with their eau de parfum fragrances🌟
Between these Shaghaf Oud, but if you want an amazing dark deep rich cambodi oud that's still wearable look up Bidun Esam by Ahmed al Maghribi, amazing amazing value for money ❤ Thank you for watching dear 🌟
reps for Burberry inform the version selling in Malaysian's shop are not theirs. So we kind of suspect that these syndicates is already reaching out for the Middle Eastern perfume too now due to the hype and good sales of the perfume here. So basically it goes like these. Get the original, clone the bottle and packaging, split the original into more bottles by watering it down, with more alcohol or even adding dpg, sell them to unknowing online and retail merchant while undercutting the price of other importers of the real perfume.
@@Zepster77 yea.. really sad.. to the extent that some times it feels like nothing is worth buying here.. it is not just perfume.. it is like almost every fake that can be pass on as the real deal, without any investigative parties upon their back, they sell it all. Even in the hypermarkets. Clothing, hardware, electrical items.. you name it.. fakes are abundance 8n the market.. even paint.. but they sell it as genuine and at the same price as the original.. bad governance imho
Hello Gorgeous! can you please tell me in wich of the three ones the rose note is predominant? and another question, wich of the trhee resambles more of the niche fragrance "Oud Bouquet" of Maison Lancome? I can't decide because I love the rose note and oriental fragrances with oud, but i don't like very much too sweet but at the same time i love beast mode fragrances and i've already got two deceptions with Lattafa (bade e al oud amethyst and raghba are too soft and doesn't last on me) Thank you very very much!
Thank you for watching and I'm sorry for the late reply❤️The most rosy one between these 3 is Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe. I haven't smelled Oud Bouquet by Maison Lancome but Shaghaf Oud is supposed to be the closest dupe of that one. Also, Shaghaf Oud is the sweetest and the strongest between these three (but look for the version with the arabic writing on it cause the newer version from the feedback that I got from other fragrance lovers is more toned down). The least sweet between these 3 is Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe by Latatfa, amazing fragrance but if might be too soft if you enjoy really strong fragrances. If you want to get something with rose & oud that smells luxurious and not very sweet look up Bidun Esam by Ahmed al Maghribi, very different to these 3 but amazing amazing scent, it has beastmode performance as well and is quite affordable 💫
Let me know what are your thoughts on Sheikh al Shuyukh 🤗 I think this depends on what kind of fragrances you enjoy during high temperatures. I personally wear all 3 all year round but I don't mind strong middle eastern fragrances in the summer, I love them. But I think most people would choose to wear Shaghaf Oud and Sheikh al Shuyukh during colder months, not in the heat of the summer.
Love your channel, found you just a few days ago. new subscriber. could you tell me the batch number on the bottom of your Sheikh al Shuyukh please? hopefully I'll find an old bottle.
Thank you very much Nesh 🤗 As far as I know Lattafa fragrances don't have a batch number, they have the date they were manufactured on the box only. From I what remember my bottle is from 2017, but I will look for the box if I still have it and update you 😊
All 3 are unisex to me, all have sweeter nuances balanced by some deeper woody oudy nuanced and some spicy facets. Test them first if you have the chance, my 2 favourites are Shaghaf Oud and Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe. Thank you for watching ❤️
I feel like Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe might be better suited for you, it's slightly less sweet compared to Oud Mood and is has a darker richer denser base, overall it's a very beautiful fragrance. Let me know your thoughts on it if you decide to try it 🌠 Thank you for watching ❤️
Thank you for watching ❤ Hmmm fresh oud is not a combo that I've came across a lot unfortunatelly. One I would recommend you to look it up is Bidun Esam by Ahmed al Maghribi, beautiful rose oud combo but the rose is bright pink and light, is a rose oud that you could wear it easily in the summer, it's the brightest rose oud combo that I've smelled, but it's not fresh (more light&bright). Another one is Atyab al Marshoud Marshoud IV White, but in this one I can't smell the oud. These two are the first that come to my mind 🌟
@@AFragrantGlance thank you for replying.. I guess when I say fresh I mean not breath taking or suffocating so oud and floral combinations.. what do you think of kalemat?
Thank you so much, I'm happy you enjoy it. 🤗 I think it would be sexy on a guy, especially with a more elegant outfit. If you're a man and you want to try it keep in mind you have to like sweet fragrances, but besides that it's a stunning fragrance!
Thank you so so much for you words !! 🤗 True niche I feel like it would be Amouage and Abdul Samad al Qurashi, but these brands are pretty pricey. However, I think you can find niche quality lines at Ajmal, Rasasi and Junaid.
@@AFragrantGlance truly Amouage s too expensive.. But got ur favorite 🤣 Shaghaf oud abyad n aswad similar clone for interlude RASASI Boruzz series only Left s not available in KSA rest I'm done.. didn't u check ARABIAN OUD any perfume.. ASQ I like some attar.. not so expensive.. shares some ATTAR review too 🤗
@@yk__ Haha yes Shaghaf Oud Aswad is one of my all time favorite fragrances, it's simply gorgeous !! It's hard to try Arabian Oud in my region, middle eastern fragrance shops don't sell them, only if i blind buy them. I would love to review some attars but I only have two in my collection, what attars would you recommend me? 🤗
Hola prima ☺️ aquí tienes un nuevo suscriptor 👍 Conoce a un perfume que se llama, shalimar oud de ard al zaafaran? Bonitos videos Buena continuación. Saludos.
Thank you for watching! ❤️ How strong you'll perceive it I think it depends on what notes are you used to in general. The rose, cinnamon and amber are the most prominent notes to my nose, the patchouli is here but more to give depth to the scent, it's not challenging/skanky. But I have came across some very heavy patchouli scents so my sense of "heavy patchouli" might be different. If you decide to try it let me know how you feel about it 🌟
@fragrnceglance hi can you pls review review lattafa raghba muski thkx or if u tried it in the past what’s your thought I just threw away raghba wood intense just didn’t agree with me or anyone with my family wanted to try the muski thkx
Hi dear and thank you for watching ❤🤗 I haven't tried Raghba Musk but I will look it up. Unfortunatelly Raghba Wood Intense didn't work for me either, it smelled like caramel & beeswax synthetic combo
Hi.. new sub here. I am from Indonesia. I need help around this oud mood and sheikh al shuyukh. First question; does sheikh al shuyukh has a 30ml bottle. Because i bought oud mood and also later i bought the 30 ml sheikh, and i wonder why both of them smell the same?? Is it me can't tell the difference or maybe the dna of lattafa is the same but only slight difference I can't notice? Or maybe i bought a fake sheikh? Actually just one question 😂.. thanks
Hi and welcome lovely! I've been seeing online 30 ml bottles from Lattafa, I think they're new to their range, but I've never tried them. This depends, it could be your nose and or it could be the current formulation sold for both fragrances. To see if it's your nose try to have a friend who's very sensitive to fragrances smell them both and compare. My guess is that it's your nose and the more you smell them the more differences you will get.They do share some similarities but they do not smell the same. Also, to my knowledge there aren't any fake Lattafa fragrances sold. Update me few weeks from now and tell me if they still smell the same cause that's very interesting 😂❤️ Thank you for watching! 🤗
@@AFragrantGlance no no.. i can tell you now that they're different. Yes.. i was too quick to judge. After i compared the two at the same time on my skin, they are different especially after the dry down. Thanks for paying attention to my question! I love your channel 💗. I really love to know more about middle eastern fragrances especially the affordable ones 😅😂. Thanks again!
I have just disvovered you and you are amaziing❤️! Where are you from, you look and sound sooo middle Eastern. I have Shagaf Oud BUT the name is written in cyrilliy so I guess it is not as strong as it should be😢
Hey!😊 I wear it in the summer and I loveee it, absolutely love it. ❤ I think you can wear it all year round, even in the summer, AS LONG AS you enjoy very strong, potent and very sweet fragrances and you're not bothered by them😊 But if you get headaches from fragrances often or if you live in a very hot and humid country it might be a bit bothering in the very hot days. Hope it helped!
How many sprays can I go for? Because everyone keeps saying you need two sprays and that’s it and I don’t know if I can just go two sprays lol😂 I would love to spray moreeee But let me know what you think please
@@goldsam840 Ok so I will be very honest I kind of don't believe in that "you only need one of two sprays" thing😂 Idk maybe my nose is not as sensitive to fragrances, but I wear minimum 5-6 sprays of it in the summer during the day and at night I can even go for 12 sprays or more 😂🤷♀️ But keep in mind the fact that if you're a man and you have hair on your body and you spray the fragrance in those places your fragrance will stick to your hairs and you will most likely get better longevity and better projection than me, so then you won't need that many sprays. Hope it helped! 😊
I would like to try either Oud mood reminiscence, Oud mood regular one, or Sheikh Al Shuyukh Luxe edition…. I have not yet tried any Oud fragrances and am worried as to what one is most feminine. I love Tom ford tobacco vanille but don’t want anything that is too peppery. What would you suggest of these 3? 😇
Thank you for watching dear ❤🌹 I would recommend you Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe as a begginer fragrance it's smells amazing and it's very versatile as you can layer it with many different fragrancs. I got great feedback on it from people who started their middle eastern fragrance journey with it. Oud Mood Reminiscence is beautiful but only if you enjoy cardamom and incensy creamy green fragrances, some say it leans more masculine. Oud Mood is beautiful as well but it's very soft. If you decide to try any of them I'd love to hear your feedback on it 🌠
@@AFragrantGlanceI know it’s been a year since this message but I wanted to come back and update you. I ended up getting Oud Mood and now I just ordered SAS Luxe Edition. My collection of middle eastern fragrances as well as nice and designer has grown by leaps and bounds. It’s actually cray how many bottles I have now! But still I continue to collect and still love your videos! 🫶
Let me know how you feel about it 🎊 If you've tried Safeer al Oud by Ard al Zaafaran it smells like just Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe minus the cinnamon note
@@AFragrantGlance I usually enjoy Middle Eastern fragrances but I didn't like this one although I'll admit I didnt give it much of a chance either. Sprayed only once and decluttered. Considering getting it again to test some more since it is so inexpensive. Btw, mine was the luxe edition. It showed perhaps old packaging that didnt include "luxe" in the photo but when it arrived it was indeed the luxe edition. Thanks!
@@AFragrantGlance I mean I was hoping you would do both because I just wanted to know what is better I have the oil version I find it creates a scent bubble for ages and stays on you for a few days Do you have any social media by the way
@@sohailahmed4134 I will look into those! Thanks for the recommendation 😊 At the moment I don't have a social media account, but when I have I will put it in the description box for sure
I can see why, it might be from the patchouli & cinnamon combo, patchouli can give more of a "masculine" tone in a fragrance depending on how strong it is and with what is mixed with. Thank you for watching & I appreciate your honest feedback ❤️🤗
Hi dear, thank you for watching ❤ This depends a lot if you tolerate these sort of notes during high temperatures and what kind of fragrances you enjoy in general. I have used it in high temperatures. Even though it's richer in notes it has some aeriness in it from the light incense accord that made it enjoyable in the summer for me, but I love these sort of fragrances all year round 🌟
Thank you for subscribing 🤗 I have this problem as well with many fragrances. The fact that your skin is drier makes the fragrances evaporate quicker. What you could do is moisturize with an unscented lotion 30 min before applying your fragrance, and apply it in double layers - 2 sprays on one wrist, 2 spays on the other wrist (without rubbing them together) and so on, where you apply your fragrances in general. Also apply them in your hair as well cause the scent lasts longer there. I will think about more tips and make a video about it. Thanks for the idea! I have some fragrances that have great performance but tell me what kind of fragrances do you like so I know what I could recommend you ❤️🤗
A Fragrant Glance thank you so much for the response. I have just started out in the fragrance world. So im really not sure what kind of scents im into. I think im into gourmand fragrances / sexy sweet fragrances like Burberry brit, pink sugar, ysl black opium
@@kishicaarora1213 Then I feel like Jasmin Wisp fom Rasasi would suit you very well! It's a fruity - white flowery gourmand, with vanilla, tonka bean, coconut and strawberry! Smells very yummy and feminine but also very strong and veryyy long lasting ❤ Or if you want to try a gourmand with a kick then look for Shaghaf Oud by Swiss Arabian, but you have to like oudy fragrances otherways it might be a bit too much (this one is oud with sweet praline and rose). Also one that I absolutly love is Moattar Dhahab by Junaid the man version (sugary vanilla with rose and creamy woody notes in the background) smells divine ❤ Look them up and see if they vibe with you 🤗 longevity is amazing with all three
A Fragrant Glance Thank you so much for the amazing recommendations ♥️. Would def give’ em a try and let you know. Lots of love and best wishes to you. 😘
Ohh so sorry to hear you're not enjoying it but I appreciate your honest feedback ❤️🙏 Was this the first fragrance you've tried with a middle eastern touch?
@@AFragrantGlance Yes it was my first Middle Eastern fragrance I tried but I received Sheikh al shuyukh and I love it 🤍 I’m still going to trust you with my buys 🥰 but it’s just the lattafa one that I didn’t like 😕
Darling, let it sit a bit. It should get changed to better, trust me. Also you can try layering. I layer my Oud Mood with Roses Musc Montale and…omg! Amazing combo 👍 you can mix it with something chocolate-smelling. For example with Choco Musk. It works great either. Give Oud Mood one more chance 🌺
Finally got a chance to try Shaghaf oud. Big disappointment for me. Imagined smth oh so different. Immediately realized that I have cheap and very similar alternative in my collection - Bi-Es Blossom Roses. Same loud oud here + sweet and super feminine rose. For me Shaghaf Oud is not intriguing, just simple loud “arab”. Masculine, not unisex.
Thank you for watching and I appreciate your honest feedback! ❤️ Good thing you got to test it and realise it's not for you instead of blind buying it 🌟
I just received sheikh al shuyukh, to an arab nose it smells cheap and masculine, maybe in european countries you would smell unique, but in an arab country I wouldnt recommend
I'm sorry to hear you don't enjoy it! I've received good feedback on it from arab people as well as other ethnicities, maybe it's the batch or simply different taste. Wishing you an amazing day! 🤗
I don't have any of these three, nor certain still if I would love them, but you presentation is just so feminine that I love your presentation. So I appreciate your feminine perspective being so authentic.
Thank you very much for your kind words, I appreciate them a lot Carlton! ✨️ Let me know how you feel about the fragrances if you decide to try them, I hope you'll enjoy them.
Finally, a UA-cam that actiually describes the scent notes in detail! A +
Thank you for your kind words, glad to hear you enjoyed the video! ❤️
I like Shaghaf Oud but I LOVE Oud Mood. The original non reformulated version which I have has the same lasting power of the Swiss Arabian and IMO is more rich and particular because I go crazy for incense notes. The first time I sprayed Shaghaf Oud I liked it a lot and I was really impressed by the lasting power and sillage, but the first time I sprayed Oud Mood... Really I was shocked because it was love at first sniff. It's so magical and deep, with a lot of nuances - incense, saffron, caramel, rose. Lasting power 1.5 days, and I can smell it for days and days on the clothes and on the pillow. You own a reformulated version for sure. When I bought it blindly, I thought to receive a dupe of Shaghaf Oud, but luckily it was far better. Thanks for your review, I was waiting for such a direct comparison to confirm my opinion. I don't own the Sheykh al Shuyuk, I avoided to buy it because I don't like cinnamon, I smell this note also in the Raghba one and I hate it, also because I find it too sweet. I own many grave from the UAE and my favourite is always Oud Mood 💘
Most likely I have the reformulated version:(
Oh how I wish I could've smelled Oud Mood before reformulation, most likely it would've been love at first sniff for me too ❤️ (I absolutely love incense in my fragrances).
Such a shame what Lattafa is doing to its fragrances, they've reformulated Sheikh al Shuyukh as well, the bottle that I have (from 2017) smells very different to what I smell in the stores now, it lost its depth and power.
Which year is your Oud Mood from? Maybe I can still find it at some suppliers and get it 🤗
could you tell me the batch number on the bottom of your oud mood bottle?
Why do perfume companies always reformulate everything that is good and solid and then make them weaker? Why do they do this? It’s makes me soo mad.
Ohhh thank you so much for saying all the good things about Sheikh Lux Edition. I always hating sickening sweet fragrances and I afraid that I'll not enjoy this one, but you're the reason why I decide to blind bought it. Such a stunning fragrance, smell much more expensive than the price. It is like the combination of Mancera Rose Vannile and Portrait of a lady, a favorite of mine but way too expensive, I can smell the incense, rose, sweet vanilla in this. I feel like I'm a royal family member when wearing this one. 😍
Hi dear, this makes me so happy, I'm glad you're enjoying it and it makes you feel amazing, this was my first love when it comes to middle eastern fragrances ❤🤗 Thank you for trusting my recommendations 🌟
I finally picked up Shaghaf Oud. So glad that I did! I’ll be wearing it a lot throughout the winter. It’s gorgeous to me.
I'm so happy to hear you're enjoying it 🥳 Yes, it's such a special fragrance for me as well. Thank you for watching, I appreciate the feedback ❤️🌹
Ibought oud mood and yara because of you and another shagaf oud for my boyfriend because he loves it and its just so amazing!!!! I also ordered choco musk! ❤
I'm so happy to hear you're enjoying my recommendations dear 🥳 You've added beautiful fragrances to your collection, thank you for watching 🌹❤
Brought all three because of you and I’m obsessed ✨🫶🏽
I'm so so happy to hear you enjoy them my dear!! 🥰 Thank you for watching 🌹❤️
to my nose, i smell more incense in Oud Mood, I smell more of the saffron in Shaghaf Oud and more of the caramel and cinnamon in the Sheikh al Shuyukh luxe. all three are someof my favorites. great review.
Thank you for watching ❤ I enjoyed reading your thoughts on these fragrances, glad to hear you enjoy them 💫
I love Shaghaf Oud. I wear it to bed, I wear it for work in all seasons. If someone's offended while at work oh well they want us in the office hybrid. Love it!!! Smells like praline and marshmallows to me mixed with coffee.
It's a staple it my collection as well, amazing amazing all year round scent and it works so well for layering as well ❤ Thank you for watching 💫
@@AFragrantGlanceI have about 350 perfumes. Beautiful perfumes. But I think that Shaghaf Oud is actually the best Arabic scent made. If not. Just a very good scent of all my perfumes. I don’t wear it often. Because I love to wear different perfumes. Shaghaf Oud was my first Arabic perfume. I love the golden bottle too. My dad likes it very much too.
ur better than most fragrance reviewers, great breakdown and comparison very impressed
Thank you very much for your kind words, I am happy to hear you enjoy my videos! ❤🎇
I received my shaghf oud today, It is amazing and from all reviews i thaught it should be very strong and was expecting it to be too much.
But it is absolutely beautiful . It is a warm pleasant scent like a luxury thick silk wrapping you . It is veryyyyy pleasant perfume.
Yeey I'm so happy to hear you're enjoying it, it's such a beautiful fragrance ❤️🎉 Could you kindly let me know if it has the arabic writing on the bottle? 🌟
@@AFragrantGlance no it is only english.
The english writting is not potent or strong, wish i could get my hands on the arabic one
I have purchased shagaf oud after watching your reviews and i love it.i have sniffed real oud at the shop and the oud in shagaf is very very mild and just a sweet vanilla caramel fragramce with just a touch of oud in background, extremely easy to wear and very mass pleasing.
Shagaf oud smells very similar to mercedes benz club black which i have but mercedes one is more "western" with no oud.
So happy to hear you're enjoying it! ❤ It's such a beautiful and versatile fragrance. I've never tried Mercedes Benz Club Black but good to know it's similar to Shaghaf Oud, cause I had it on my "to try" list 😊
@@AFragrantGlance I don't think they smell similar! Please get Mercedes Benz Club Black! It is so good and definitely unisex. It smells more similar to Casablanca than Shaghaf Oud but less sweet and more spice. It's a stunning fragrance! I love layering it with Roses Vanille from Mancera.
Oud Mood Reminiscence is 10x better than Oud Mood IMO
Gorgeous reviewer 😍! And the fragrances are a close second!
Thank you for your kind words, I appreciate them! ❤️
In fact, you're very beautiful and good at your craft. Keep it up!
Thank you for your kind words, glad to hear you enjoy my videos! ❤️
The mole near your nose ....is very magnetic....mysterious....God's gift
Thank you very much! 😊
Your right..❤❤❤❤❤
Taking notes 📝 😉
SHEIKH AL SHUYUKH LUXE Edition is a great fragrance!!
It really is a beautiful fragrance! ✨️ Thank you for watching ❤️
Congratulations and thanks for the video. I have Shaghaf Oud, one of my best fragrances. Excellent quality - price fragrance.
Thank you for watching ❤ Yes, such a beautiful offering from Swiss Arabian, so affordable but so well done at the same time 🌟
Your comparison here was on point. I've just got Sheikh Al Shuyukh and I love it. I'm wearing it with Scent Salim Amber oil. 😍 I don't get the hate on the opening for this one, but I guess it's all subjective depending on what you like.
So happy to hear you're loving it 🥳 Now I don't wear it as much because it has a very nostalgic smell to me but it's such a special fragrance for me and I love how it smells 🌠 Thank you for watching my dear and thank you for trusting my recommendations, I'm always happy to hear they're working for you 🌹❤🤗
Normally I’m not into female reviewers nor do I like to listen to non native English speakers but you are sooooo detail oriented , such good verbal intelligence, poetic language , good communication skills . You are Amazing as a reviewer!
You are so kind, I appreciate a lot your works of encouragment and I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the video! ❤️ Thank you for watching ✨️
Great comparisons I need to try sheikh al shuyukh 🌟
Oh Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe is such a beautiful fragrance, I got great feedback on it so far, and it is one of my most used middle eastern fragrances ❤️
I received Sheikh Al Shuyukh today and on the first couple sprays, I wasn’t loving it- came back to it after it settled and WOW❤❤❤it’s sprayed on my nightgown😂😂😂
Glad to hear you enjoy it now! 🥳 Thank you for watching dear and I appreciate your feedback 🌹❤️
Great review ! Had this question from a long time, Thanks
Happy I could help 🤗
Hi, I'm from Malaysia and really like the way you elaborate on the perfume, and the comparison. We have here in Malaysia many reformulated version of most of Lattafa, Ard Al Zaffaran, I think, because as if the strength is toned down and also we have many Lattafa fakes from China. But at least it will be written on the boxes that the fakes are made in P.R.C.. People Republic of China. But the packaging and the bottling is exact copy. The scent and pricing however is different. For non fake Lattafas, the longevity and the projection is still very good but they are no longer projecting as as strong as years ago. However the Middle East/Dubai perfume are still better than the designers' perfume here, which are always meek, don't project well and don't last at all, 1-2 hours top, which I suspect are mostly good quality watered down fakes done by syndicate in S.E.Asia with insider access to the parcels. Salvatorre Ferragamo and rep
Wow thanks for that eye-opening info brother….
Cannot deal with sheikh
But oud mood is soft and nice .
😊
Happy to hear you found something that works for you, thank you for watching ❤
Oud Mood smelled too synthetic to me (I have a sample)... I have the other two bottles. Oud Mood resembles Sheikh Al Shuyukh more than Shaghaf Oud. But Sheikh Al Shuyukh is more classy. Shaghaf Oud is my favorite out of all 3 because I love the gourmand nuances
Shaghaf Oud is my favorite one as well ❤️And agree, Sheikh al Shuyukh is classier indeed
Thank you for such an in depth review. I’m even more confused though. All of these scents sound different and beautiful! I’m new to Oud and am looking for a starting point. I’m looking for an oudwith good projection, staying power and one that can be layered with easily. I do love sweet scents also
Thank you for watching! 🤗🌹All three share slight similar facets but then they go in different directions and different notes shine. Which one do you feel more drawn to? If you feel a connection with one in particular go for that one. Many people love Oud Mood from Lattafa as an introductory scent to the world of oud and middle eastern fragrances, personally I'd recommend you to start with Shaghaf Oud - the oud accord is very friendly yet present and it's enveloped by beautiful sweet accords so it leaves a lot of room to play with it in different layering combinations (with different oils, body lotions/ body butters, even other EDPs). I love to layer this fragrance and it is ultra versatile from this perspective. It's stronger than Oud Mood but not strong to the point of being suffocating, I received along the years amazing feedback on it. If you try it make sure you give it time and let me know your thoughts on it. 💫
@@AFragrantGlance I took a chance and blind bought Shahaf Oud, it will be delivered on Tuesday. I chose that one because I feel like that scent resonates the best with my love for sweet bold scents. I chose it before reading your comment so I’m not feeling even better about my choice after reading your reply!! I plan to give it time and expect that I will enjoy the journey! Thank you again. I really enjoy your content and videos.🥰
@@AFragrantGlance I had to come back and let you know that I received Shaghaf oud today and OMG I love it so much!!!! Thank you again. This will remain in my collection
This Video was very helpful to me!
I was strugeling wich of thosex3 i should buy?...
After your vid i will go with shagaf oud!
Thank you very much!
Happy you found it useful! ❤Let me know how you feel about I hope you'll enjoy it🎊
@@AFragrantGlance
Hi,
Today Shgaf Oud Was delivered...
And I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!
Its exaktly what i was looking for!!!
I have Oud Mood and Sheikh Al Shuyukh, still waiting for my Shaghaf Oud. I cannot just wear Oud mood at work because my colleagues are not really into mid eastern frags. I love Sheikh Al Shuyukh better.
Try mixing the Oud Mood with a Sweet fragrance, it'll balance the sweetness with the Woody, Incense.
@@ChevyChev I tried oud mood and ameer al oudh intense oud combo and love it.
Fantastic! I'm glad to hear that you mixed it with something else. My favorite combo is mixing it with Into the Night by Bath & Body Works. 😍😍
@@ChevyChev oh, I will try that. I have that one too. Thanks
Thank you for watching dear! ❤️ I'm glad to hear you're enjoying Sheikh al Shuyukh by Lattafa, let me know your thoughts on Shaghaf Oud, I hope you'll enjoy it as well 🤗
In my Top 5 - Sheikh Al Shuyukh Luxe Edition! I can not get enough of this in the winter! Like being wrapped in a big cashmere cozy sweater sipping coffee by the fire! I think I am going to go home and smell it lol. Do you like Chinatown too?
AAZ Safeer al oud is almost the same as Shaghaf oud to me and very sweet...What do you think about it? If you can compare them with performance because I don't have a Shaghaf oud gold bottle... Big greetings ❤
Greeting to you as well, thank you for watching! ❤️ Yes, they are definitely in the same scent family, to me Safeer al Oud smells like a very sweet caramel/ praline accord with a slightly barnyard oud accord but the two blend very well together. Shaghaf Oud to my nose is slightly more complex ( you have sweet red rose there as well with a touch of saffron and some woodsy facets in the background). Unless you really enjoy this scent family it might be redundant to have both, persoanlly I love it, I have both but I've used Shaghaf Oud more throughout the years as I love to wear it layered with Oud Aswad. Performance wise Shaghaf Oud (I have the version with the arabic writing on the bottle) is a beast mode on every aspect, Safeer al Oud is not as loud but has a decent performance. 💫
I got shaghaf and it’s gorgeous
So happy to hear you enjoy it 💫 Thank you for watching ❤🌹
I wish I could have smelled Shelik Al Shuyukh before reformulation. I just received it and Oud Mood and Oud Mood is way stronger. SAS still projects but not as strong as OM. I could smell it before I opened it. They do have a similar DNA to them, but I can tell them apart. I want to get Shaghaf Oud also but I don't want 3 fragrances that smell similar and no one can tell apart. Is Shaghaf Oud different enough to purchase?
Would you say Al shuyukh is sweet?
I just only have Lattafa sheikh al shuyukh luxe edition. And that's perfume is the best perfume by price to value.
I enjoy Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe as well, it's one of the best offers from Lattafa in my opinion! 🎉 Thank you for watching
is it too much on the feminine side cuz i read a lot of reviews that its too sweet for a man , im looking to cop SAS but i wanna know if its for a guy or no
This really depends on your taste in fragrances, what are some of your favourite fragrances? So I can see if you would enjoy Sheikh al Shuyukh 😊
@@AFragrantGlance tbh my taste in fragrance is all over the place i like a lot of different scents , and living in dubai made me fall in love with emarati style oud , right now im looking for a really oudy type of fragrance and sheikh al shuyukh caught my attention but a lot of people say its too feminine
I discovered your Channel today! You're beautiful and I do love your way to explain fragrances!😍 I'm looking for a new oriental fragrance... I just have Inara Oud by Swiss Arabian (it's supposed to be a dupe for Shaghaf Oud). Can you recommend something woody, with incense, but sweet, performing very good and long lasting? I'm really focused on Sheikh Al Shuyukh Luxe edition. Thank you so much!😊
Welcome my dear, I am happy to have you here 🤗 Thank you for your kind words. The first fragrance that popped in my mind was Majd al Sultan by Asdaaf but I remember you bought it and love it, some others you could look up are Qaa'ed by Lattafa, Amber Oud Tobacco by Al Haramain and Oud Aswad by Swiss Arabian, look them up and see if they sound like something you would enjoy. Thank you for watching ❤️🌹
The second one, Luxe, does the cinnamon stay with you when when it dies down ? And will I smell it as soon as I spray ? I love cinnamon
Thank you for watching ❤️🌹 Honestly I haven't worn Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe in the longest time as it's more of a nostalgic fragrance for me now, but I remember the cinnamon stayed for a good few hours. It's a beautiful one to try if you enjoy cinnamon, another one I would highly highly recommend for cinnamon lovers is Amber Oud Tobacco Edition by Al Haramain (similar to Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford) it's such a gorgeous fragrance, I recently uploaded a review for that one as well, feel free to check it out🌠
@@AFragrantGlance thx sounds good
Hey, lovely video review! Big fan of Shaghaf oud and just ordred Oud Mood to see what it smells like. What is the name of the Shaghaf dupe you mentioned towards the end of the video? Would love to search for it and try it :)
Hi, thank you for watching ❤ Let me know your thoughts on Oud Mood. The fragrance similar to Shaghaf Oud is called Riwayat al Oud by Afnan, very similar to Shaghaf Oud I can only tell slight nuances appart, but Shaghaf Oud has better performance, but it's a great alternative now that Swiss Arabian reformulated Shaghaf Oud
You have to reapply oud mod throughout the day? Oud mood kick, punch and fist fight the whole day. I hate it cuz its masculine, my partner loves it so i gave it to him
Glad to hear the it lasts very well on you! I appreciate your feedback on the fragrance, thank you for watching 🌹🤗
Hi darling, I bought both shaghaf and oud mood and both but specially oud mood has medicinal dentist office smell of hand sanitizer in it.. I think it’s the saffron because it’s chemically made and not saffron.. it’s awful smelling I have to shower and wash my clothes after it.. but I love oud.. is there a female sweet oud without this awful smell of saffron .. it’s a lot less in shaghaf but I still smell it..
I bought oud in the Middle East and it was beautiful and didn’t smell like this at all.
I would love your recommendation
I love sheikh al shuyukh! Can you please recommend some similar fragrances that aren't as oud forward but still have gourmand middle eastern dna with the amber + caramel? I didn't like shaghaf oud because it was too oudy but SAS is perfect to me.
Hi dear, I think you would enjoy Oud Mood by Lattafa or Oud al Sayad by Ard al Zaafaran. They smell kind of similar, but Oud al Sayad is darker, sweeter and heavier on caramel, it has a hint of oud but not as strong as Shaghaf Oud, while Oud Mood is lighter. But out of the two, if you enjoy amber/resins + caramel I really think you would enjoy Oud al Sayad by Ard al Zaafaran ❤️
Swiss Arabian Casablanca is exactly what you are looking for! Beautiful gourmand caramel fragrance.
I have all three. And I love them all. Do I need each one of them?... No. But I love the little nuances. If I had to choose, I would go with oud mood...
Happy to hear you enjoy them! ❤ All three are beautiful
I love💖💖💖💖Sheikh al Shuyik and Oud Mood 💖💖💖
I enjoy them a lot as well!! Great offers from Lattafa ❤
Hi There i finally got Shaghaf Oud and i simply love it!!🎉 the dried down smells very fimiliar😊..thn it struck me smells like Sh Al Shuyukh..yes u are right they are different but similar in the dried down to me which i love.😊
Would like to know , on my bottle of Shaghaf Oud the name is written in English..is there a difference in the bottle with Arabic writing?
Yeey I'm so happy to hear that, enjoy your new fragrance to the fullest!! 🥳 I can't see my collection without that fragrance. I haven't tried myself the version without the arabic writing but from the feedback that I got this version with the english writing only seems to be a tad softer and more subdued compared to the older formulations. Scent wise I haven't heard of any differences, it's just the performance that differs. Thank you for watching and thank you for sharing your feedback on it 🌹❤️
@@AFragrantGlance Hi yes I can definitely understand u have to have Shaghaf in ur collection....I have to get a back up bottle asap:)) I never want to be without Shaghaf Oud :)
Oh OK I dont mind then if I have the English writing seeing it's just a tad bit softer....but LOVE the smell....for all seasons:)))) thank you for ur response I do appreciate it ×
Its a great review ❤️
I am very new to oud game, however i like armaf club de nuit intense women one, that oud is smooth n sexy
Wanna buy lattafa oud mood
Will that be a good blind buy? I don’t want hard masculine vibe rather prefer soft rose vanilla thing
Can you suggest
Thank you for watching dear!! ❤️ Oud Mood is a beautiful fragrance to start your oud collection with, I think you will enjoy it. The fragrance is soft, the oud there is smooth and easy to enjoy, it has a sweetness to it, it's not bothering at all, to me it even leans on the feminine side. 🤗 If you get it let me know how you feel about it!!
@@AFragrantGlance Thanks a lot, i will definitely get it ❤️
Are these newer formulations that you are reviewing? Interested in what are the performances on new bottles of Sheikh Thanks in advance =)
My Sheikh al Shuyukh is from 2016/ 2017 and I don't have a problem with the performance, but I've heard that the Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe sold now doesn't last as long. Oud Mood is from 2020 (performs quite poor) and Shaghaf Oud also from 2020 (this one performs really well on my skin).
Hope it helped! 😊
Oud Mood is my favorite! Hands down!
Happy to hear you enjoy it dear! 🥳 Thank you for watching 🌹❤️
I've ordered Shaikh Al Shuyukh Luxe Edition for my mother 66 yrso...what do u think, is it appropriate for her?.....BTW great content....new subscriber just landed 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
I think fragrances have no age, anyone should wear whatever makes them happy. 🥰 How did she feel about the fragrance? Did she enjoy it? How nice of you to purchase fragrances for her, it's always such a special gift and she'll associate the fragrances with you. Thank you for watching 🤗🌹
@@AFragrantGlance She love it....very strong performance and luxurious smell....the oud is very prominent and she was well impressed by the bottle and cap design.....❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi ,im planning to get Shagaf oud in the future but l just found sheikh al shuyukh for a great price (18 euros)... Are they really different enough to have both,l don't like having similar scents cause it's so hard to use them all up when ypu have many, l really like cinnamon note tho... The one from JPG la Belle le parfum is to die for
Thank you for watching 🌹❤ Ohh I adore La Belle Le Parfum it's such a gorgeous seductive fragrance. To me they're different enough however they do share some similarities, both are sweet red roses one with cinnamon, patchouli, caramel and woody accrods and the other one with saffron, oud & praline. Personally I love both, when I smell them I could easily tell them apart, they are not sisters, more like cousins. Let me know your thoughts on the one you choose to get 🎊
@@AFragrantGlance Hi! ❤️
I've ordered sheikh al shuyukh, still awaiting for it. I would really like to get Shagaf too but l can't find it for adorable price in EU (Croatia), Notino charges way to much compered to US sites ,also couldn't find reasonable options on ebay or amazon (shipping is either expensive or not available at all to my country). Can't wait to try sheikh al shuyukh!
Hi !! I am a new subscriber!!😍 love your reviews and I just started recently with middle eastern fragrances and I would like to ask you which is in your opinion the best oud fragrance.
Do you know by any chance the brand Khalis? 😘🍀 p.s. you are gorgeous 😻
Hi dear, I'm happy to have you here and thank you for you kind words ❤️🤗 It's so hard to choose one oud scent, oud is something so personal cause it'a all about finding that combo that works for you. I have a few which I love but I would recommend to test them prior if you have the chance, cause it's not the most easy to enjoy smell in fragrances. Some of my favourites are Oud Aswad by Swiss Arabian, Shaghaf Oud by Swiss Arabian (but the version with the arabic writing on it), Bidun Esam by Ahmed al Maghribi (amazing amazing rose oud combo it smells so luxurious), Rose Wood by Ajmal (beginner oud), Badiah Gold by Junaid, Areej al Sheila by Swiss Arabian and Ameer al Oudh Intense Oudh by Lattafa (this one is great for layering and easy to enjoy oud scent). Look these ones up and see if any of them sound like something you would enjoy. I've had some oils from Khalis in the past but I am not very familiar with their eau de parfum fragrances🌟
Hi! Beautifu! Which one has a darker oudh note, please?
Between these Shaghaf Oud, but if you want an amazing dark deep rich cambodi oud that's still wearable look up Bidun Esam by Ahmed al Maghribi, amazing amazing value for money ❤ Thank you for watching dear 🌟
Thank you for sharing ❤new sub👍
Happy to have you here, thank you for watching! 🤗🌹
reps for Burberry inform the version selling in Malaysian's shop are not theirs. So we kind of suspect that these syndicates is already reaching out for the Middle Eastern perfume too now due to the hype and good sales of the perfume here. So basically it goes like these. Get the original, clone the bottle and packaging, split the original into more bottles by watering it down, with more alcohol or even adding dpg, sell them to unknowing online and retail merchant while undercutting the price of other importers of the real perfume.
That is really sad situation , if true…
@@Zepster77 yea.. really sad.. to the extent that some times it feels like nothing is worth buying here.. it is not just perfume.. it is like almost every fake that can be pass on as the real deal, without any investigative parties upon their back, they sell it all. Even in the hypermarkets. Clothing, hardware, electrical items.. you name it.. fakes are abundance 8n the market.. even paint.. but they sell it as genuine and at the same price as the original.. bad governance imho
Wow. But for sure, I can understand why it occurs…
Hello Gorgeous! can you please tell me in wich of the three ones the rose note is predominant? and another question, wich of the trhee resambles more of the niche fragrance "Oud Bouquet" of Maison Lancome? I can't decide because I love the rose note and oriental fragrances with oud, but i don't like very much too sweet but at the same time i love beast mode fragrances and i've already got two deceptions with Lattafa (bade e al oud amethyst and raghba are too soft and doesn't last on me) Thank you very very much!
Thank you for watching and I'm sorry for the late reply❤️The most rosy one between these 3 is Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe. I haven't smelled Oud Bouquet by Maison Lancome but Shaghaf Oud is supposed to be the closest dupe of that one. Also, Shaghaf Oud is the sweetest and the strongest between these three (but look for the version with the arabic writing on it cause the newer version from the feedback that I got from other fragrance lovers is more toned down). The least sweet between these 3 is Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe by Latatfa, amazing fragrance but if might be too soft if you enjoy really strong fragrances. If you want to get something with rose & oud that smells luxurious and not very sweet look up Bidun Esam by Ahmed al Maghribi, very different to these 3 but amazing amazing scent, it has beastmode performance as well and is quite affordable 💫
@@AFragrantGlance thank you very much for your answer! love your videos...a big hug from Argentina!
Try Riiffs - Incense Gold same DNA like the 3
Thank you for the recommendation 😊
I have shagaf and oud mood. I will check the Lataffa one soon. 👍Can we wear these 3 all throughout the year or only on particular season here in UAE?
Let me know what are your thoughts on Sheikh al Shuyukh 🤗
I think this depends on what kind of fragrances you enjoy during high temperatures. I personally wear all 3 all year round but I don't mind strong middle eastern fragrances in the summer, I love them. But I think most people would choose to wear Shaghaf Oud and Sheikh al Shuyukh during colder months, not in the heat of the summer.
Please do a review of Shaghaf Oud Azraq
Thank you for watching dear ❤️🌹 At the moment it's not available in my country but I'm hoping to get a decant of it in the near future
Love your channel, found you just a few days ago. new subscriber. could you tell me the batch number on the bottom of your Sheikh al Shuyukh please? hopefully I'll find an old bottle.
Thank you very much Nesh 🤗 As far as I know Lattafa fragrances don't have a batch number, they have the date they were manufactured on the box only. From I what remember my bottle is from 2017, but I will look for the box if I still have it and update you 😊
@@AFragrantGlance oh thank you so much, so kind of you. I'll look for a bottle from before 2018👍.
Hello!
which of the three is the most masculine?
All 3 are unisex to me, all have sweeter nuances balanced by some deeper woody oudy nuanced and some spicy facets. Test them first if you have the chance, my 2 favourites are Shaghaf Oud and Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe. Thank you for watching ❤️
What is for 21 years old boy better oud mood or sheikh al shuyukh i like gourmand fragrance but dont want to much feminin?
I feel like Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe might be better suited for you, it's slightly less sweet compared to Oud Mood and is has a darker richer denser base, overall it's a very beautiful fragrance. Let me know your thoughts on it if you decide to try it 🌠 Thank you for watching ❤️
Hi. Have you tried Inara Oud from Swiss Arabian or Oud Vanille from Franc Olivier. I wonder if they are similar to Shagaf Oud. 😘
Hi dear, I've never tried any of the two 🤗
Not similar at all.
Inara Oud is almost the same as Shaghaf Oud.
What is the freshest oud you recommend for a female.. I like elevated fresh and I love oud..
Thank you for watching ❤ Hmmm fresh oud is not a combo that I've came across a lot unfortunatelly. One I would recommend you to look it up is Bidun Esam by Ahmed al Maghribi, beautiful rose oud combo but the rose is bright pink and light, is a rose oud that you could wear it easily in the summer, it's the brightest rose oud combo that I've smelled, but it's not fresh (more light&bright). Another one is Atyab al Marshoud Marshoud IV White, but in this one I can't smell the oud. These two are the first that come to my mind 🌟
@@AFragrantGlance thank you for replying.. I guess when I say fresh I mean not breath taking or suffocating so oud and floral combinations.. what do you think of kalemat?
How do you find SHEIKH AL SHUYUKH for a man? Is it too feminine or you find it sexy on a guy? I really liked your review by the way!
Thank you so much, I'm happy you enjoy it. 🤗
I think it would be sexy on a guy, especially with a more elegant outfit. If you're a man and you want to try it keep in mind you have to like sweet fragrances, but besides that it's a stunning fragrance!
Do you think like me that sheikh al shuyukh is more stronger than oud mood?
Yes, for sure, Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe is much stronger on me as well! Thank you for watching ❤️
@@AFragrantGlance also opulent red is strong 😵💫
Good reviews.. keep it up one day sure you will have millions subscriber.. ?> Which is the best perfume house from MIDDLE EAST (NICHE BRAND)
Thank you so so much for you words !! 🤗
True niche I feel like it would be Amouage and Abdul Samad al Qurashi, but these brands are pretty pricey. However, I think you can find niche quality lines at Ajmal, Rasasi and Junaid.
@@AFragrantGlance truly Amouage s too expensive.. But got ur favorite 🤣 Shaghaf oud abyad n aswad similar clone for interlude RASASI Boruzz series only Left s not available in KSA rest I'm done.. didn't u check ARABIAN OUD any perfume.. ASQ I like some attar.. not so expensive.. shares some ATTAR review too 🤗
@@yk__ Haha yes Shaghaf Oud Aswad is one of my all time favorite fragrances, it's simply gorgeous !! It's hard to try Arabian Oud in my region, middle eastern fragrance shops don't sell them, only if i blind buy them. I would love to review some attars but I only have two in my collection, what attars would you recommend me? 🤗
@@AFragrantGlance As you like rose try TAIF ROSE from ASQ .. it's simple plain pure rose all natural or any mukallat from AJMAL
@@yk__ kinda hard to get it where I love but will def look it up 😊
Hola prima ☺️ aquí tienes un nuevo suscriptor 👍
Conoce a un perfume que se llama, shalimar oud de ard al zaafaran?
Bonitos videos
Buena continuación.
Saludos.
Welcome welcome 🤗 I've never heard of it/ tried it so I can't share my thoughts about it. Thank you for watching ❤️
Is the patchouli in Sheikh al Shuyukh very pronounced?
Thank you for watching! ❤️ How strong you'll perceive it I think it depends on what notes are you used to in general. The rose, cinnamon and amber are the most prominent notes to my nose, the patchouli is here but more to give depth to the scent, it's not challenging/skanky. But I have came across some very heavy patchouli scents so my sense of "heavy patchouli" might be different. If you decide to try it let me know how you feel about it 🌟
@fragrnceglance hi can you pls review review lattafa raghba muski thkx or if u tried it in the past what’s your thought I just threw away raghba wood intense just didn’t agree with me or anyone with my family wanted to try the muski thkx
Hi dear and thank you for watching ❤🤗 I haven't tried Raghba Musk but I will look it up. Unfortunatelly Raghba Wood Intense didn't work for me either, it smelled like caramel & beeswax synthetic combo
@@AFragrantGlance oh I cudnt agree more about Raghba Wood intense..gave mine away....Dont regard that as a fragrance :)
Hi.. new sub here. I am from Indonesia. I need help around this oud mood and sheikh al shuyukh. First question; does sheikh al shuyukh has a 30ml bottle. Because i bought oud mood and also later i bought the 30 ml sheikh, and i wonder why both of them smell the same?? Is it me can't tell the difference or maybe the dna of lattafa is the same but only slight difference I can't notice? Or maybe i bought a fake sheikh? Actually just one question 😂.. thanks
Hi and welcome lovely! I've been seeing online 30 ml bottles from Lattafa, I think they're new to their range, but I've never tried them. This depends, it could be your nose and or it could be the current formulation sold for both fragrances. To see if it's your nose try to have a friend who's very sensitive to fragrances smell them both and compare. My guess is that it's your nose and the more you smell them the more differences you will get.They do share some similarities but they do not smell the same. Also, to my knowledge there aren't any fake Lattafa fragrances sold. Update me few weeks from now and tell me if they still smell the same cause that's very interesting 😂❤️ Thank you for watching! 🤗
@@AFragrantGlance no no.. i can tell you now that they're different. Yes.. i was too quick to judge. After i compared the two at the same time on my skin, they are different especially after the dry down. Thanks for paying attention to my question! I love your channel 💗. I really love to know more about middle eastern fragrances especially the affordable ones 😅😂. Thanks again!
I have just disvovered you and you are amaziing❤️!
Where are you from, you look and sound sooo middle Eastern.
I have Shagaf Oud BUT the name is written in cyrilliy so I guess it is not as strong as it should be😢
I just sampled aud mood
Let me know if it vibes with you
Heyyy.. I just wanted to ask you can I wear shagaf oud during summer ??
Hey!😊 I wear it in the summer and I loveee it, absolutely love it. ❤ I think you can wear it all year round, even in the summer, AS LONG AS you enjoy very strong, potent and very sweet fragrances and you're not bothered by them😊 But if you get headaches from fragrances often or if you live in a very hot and humid country it might be a bit bothering in the very hot days. Hope it helped!
Ok thank youuu☺️
How many sprays can I go for? Because everyone keeps saying you need two sprays and that’s it and I don’t know if I can just go two sprays lol😂 I would love to spray moreeee
But let me know what you think please
@@goldsam840 Ok so I will be very honest I kind of don't believe in that "you only need one of two sprays" thing😂 Idk maybe my nose is not as sensitive to fragrances, but I wear minimum 5-6 sprays of it in the summer during the day and at night I can even go for 12 sprays or more 😂🤷♀️ But keep in mind the fact that if you're a man and you have hair on your body and you spray the fragrance in those places your fragrance will stick to your hairs and you will most likely get better longevity and better projection than me, so then you won't need that many sprays. Hope it helped! 😊
Yes it helped !! thank you so much
Didn’t want to look like the crazy one go for more than 2 Sprays to I had to ask
Can you do a video about Lataffa ?
Yes, great idea! I will do one 🤗
Hi have u tryed lattafa oud mood remeniscent ?
Thank you for watching dear! ❤️ Yes, I've tried it, I will have a video where I share my thoughts on it coming up in the near future 🤗
Have you trued orientica oud saffron ?
I would like to try either Oud mood reminiscence, Oud mood regular one, or Sheikh Al Shuyukh Luxe edition…. I have not yet tried any Oud fragrances and am worried as to what one is most feminine. I love Tom ford tobacco vanille but don’t want anything that is too peppery. What would you suggest of these 3? 😇
Thank you for watching dear ❤🌹 I would recommend you Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe as a begginer fragrance it's smells amazing and it's very versatile as you can layer it with many different fragrancs. I got great feedback on it from people who started their middle eastern fragrance journey with it. Oud Mood Reminiscence is beautiful but only if you enjoy cardamom and incensy creamy green fragrances, some say it leans more masculine. Oud Mood is beautiful as well but it's very soft. If you decide to try any of them I'd love to hear your feedback on it 🌠
@@AFragrantGlanceI know it’s been a year since this message but I wanted to come back and update you. I ended up getting Oud Mood and now I just ordered SAS Luxe Edition. My collection of middle eastern fragrances as well as nice and designer has grown by leaps and bounds. It’s actually cray how many bottles I have now! But still I continue to collect and still love your videos! 🫶
I bought Sheik al Shuyukh but the regular version not luxe. What is the difference?
I don't think that I've tried the regular one 🤷🏻♀️
@@AFragrantGlance mine is coming in the mail today and i might just go ahead and order the luxe version as well to compare and review.
Let me know how you feel about it 🎊 If you've tried Safeer al Oud by Ard al Zaafaran it smells like just Sheikh al Shuyukh Luxe minus the cinnamon note
@@AFragrantGlance I usually enjoy Middle Eastern fragrances but I didn't like this one although I'll admit I didnt give it much of a chance either. Sprayed only once and decluttered. Considering getting it again to test some more since it is so inexpensive. Btw, mine was the luxe edition. It showed perhaps old packaging that didnt include "luxe" in the photo but when it arrived it was indeed the luxe edition. Thanks!
You should try musk mood
Thank you for your recommendation, I will look into that 😊
@@AFragrantGlance You’re welcome😊 also I’d recommend Choco Musk from Al Rehab
@@sohailahmed4134 I've heard about this fragrance, which one would you recommend, the oil version or the parfume? 😊
@@AFragrantGlance I mean I was hoping you would do both because I just wanted to know what is better
I have the oil version I find it creates a scent bubble for ages and stays on you for a few days
Do you have any social media by the way
@@sohailahmed4134 I will look into those! Thanks for the recommendation 😊
At the moment I don't have a social media account, but when I have I will put it in the description box for sure
I like oud mood for me I can't think of sheik elsheouk as unesex it smell so male fragrant maybe because of the powerful cinnamon 🤔
I can see why, it might be from the patchouli & cinnamon combo, patchouli can give more of a "masculine" tone in a fragrance depending on how strong it is and with what is mixed with. Thank you for watching & I appreciate your honest feedback ❤️🤗
Is oud mood okay in high heat? (40C around)
Hi dear, thank you for watching ❤ This depends a lot if you tolerate these sort of notes during high temperatures and what kind of fragrances you enjoy in general. I have used it in high temperatures. Even though it's richer in notes it has some aeriness in it from the light incense accord that made it enjoyable in the summer for me, but I love these sort of fragrances all year round 🌟
No
I am sad bcz we not have in Bosnia
What is the name of the dupe for Shanghaf Oud?
It's called Riwayat al Oud by Afnan. Thank you for watching ❤
@@AFragrantGlance thank you for responding!
نفسها عود مود شغف عود ذهبي
I find they have some differances but both are beautiful ✨ Thank you for watching 🌹
Hi, amazing video! Imma nee subscriber.
Thank you for subscribing 🤗 I have this problem as well with many fragrances. The fact that your skin is drier makes the fragrances evaporate quicker. What you could do is moisturize with an unscented lotion 30 min before applying your fragrance, and apply it in double layers - 2 sprays on one wrist, 2 spays on the other wrist (without rubbing them together) and so on, where you apply your fragrances in general. Also apply them in your hair as well cause the scent lasts longer there. I will think about more tips and make a video about it. Thanks for the idea!
I have some fragrances that have great performance but tell me what kind of fragrances do you like so I know what I could recommend you ❤️🤗
A Fragrant Glance thank you so much for the response. I have just started out in the fragrance world. So im really not sure what kind of scents im into. I think im into gourmand fragrances / sexy sweet fragrances like Burberry brit, pink sugar, ysl black opium
@@kishicaarora1213 Then I feel like Jasmin Wisp fom Rasasi would suit you very well! It's a fruity - white flowery gourmand, with vanilla, tonka bean, coconut and strawberry! Smells very yummy and feminine but also very strong and veryyy long lasting ❤ Or if you want to try a gourmand with a kick then look for Shaghaf Oud by Swiss Arabian, but you have to like oudy fragrances otherways it might be a bit too much (this one is oud with sweet praline and rose).
Also one that I absolutly love is Moattar Dhahab by Junaid the man version (sugary vanilla with rose and creamy woody notes in the background) smells divine ❤
Look them up and see if they vibe with you 🤗 longevity is amazing with all three
A Fragrant Glance Thank you so much for the amazing recommendations ♥️. Would def give’ em a try and let you know. Lots of love and best wishes to you. 😘
Is sheikh al shuyukh safe to blind buy ?
If you enjoy sweet ambery fragrances with patchouli and some woody nuances then yes, safe to blind buy
I just received my oud mood I almost to threw up I’m so disappointed because I watched several UA-cam videos before buying 💔
Ohh so sorry to hear you're not enjoying it but I appreciate your honest feedback ❤️🙏 Was this the first fragrance you've tried with a middle eastern touch?
@@AFragrantGlance Yes it was my first Middle Eastern fragrance I tried but I received Sheikh al shuyukh and I love it 🤍 I’m still going to trust you with my buys 🥰 but it’s just the lattafa one that I didn’t like 😕
@@Heevvyy Happy to hear you found one that works for you 🤗
Darling, let it sit a bit. It should get changed to better, trust me. Also you can try layering. I layer my Oud Mood with Roses Musc Montale and…omg! Amazing combo 👍 you can mix it with something chocolate-smelling. For example with Choco Musk. It works great either. Give Oud Mood one more chance 🌺
Oud mood better than Shaikh shuyukh lux adition?which one buying....
On my skin Sheikh al Shuyukh lasts better, has more depth and is more complex (but look for older batches cause the lasting power was better) 😊
👍
Finally got a chance to try Shaghaf oud. Big disappointment for me. Imagined smth oh so different. Immediately realized that I have cheap and very similar alternative in my collection - Bi-Es Blossom Roses. Same loud oud here + sweet and super feminine rose. For me Shaghaf Oud is not intriguing, just simple loud “arab”. Masculine, not unisex.
Thank you for watching and I appreciate your honest feedback! ❤️ Good thing you got to test it and realise it's not for you instead of blind buying it 🌟
I just received sheikh al shuyukh, to an arab nose it smells cheap and masculine, maybe in european countries you would smell unique, but in an arab country I wouldnt recommend
I'm sorry to hear you don't enjoy it! I've received good feedback on it from arab people as well as other ethnicities, maybe it's the batch or simply different taste. Wishing you an amazing day! 🤗
The lady understand mens fragance better than man .
Thank you! 😊🌟
