I am a 70 years old woman and I love Liam. I do not consider it masculine at all. Thank you for your very interesting and fair presentations. Greetings from Germany ❤
Amethyst was the perfume that opened the gates to the middle eastern fragrances in my life. I've always been in love with dark roses perfumes and Amethyst was , and still is to me,a super fascinating super seductive scent. It was also the reason I subscribed to your lovely channel😉
I bought Amethyst, Eclaire, Mohra, Haya, Mohra Silky Rose, Musamam White Intense and Nasheet all on your recommendations and not a single one has let me down. I absolutely adore all of them 😍❤️ Musamam white intense is stunning but I haven’t been able to wear it because of the ambroxan note, though I’m still hoping I somehow get used to it enough to not get headaches from it. I just don’t have the heart to give up on it. I’m always blown away by how beautifully and specifically you describe fragrances. Your descriptions are so spot on- like about the medicine cabinet/vicks Vapor rub for Nasheet, Eclaires toffee for Eclaire, silk route for Mohra and the jammy rose for Amethyst. You amaze me hon! ❤ You never steer me wrong. And your description of Liam grey has me making heart eyes at it in my wishlist. I have a sample of Gris Charnel and love it so I’m definitely going to end up buying Liam Grey in the near future I think 😆
Heya Hun ❤ I really hope that your Ambroxan tolerance gets better coz unfortunately it is present in 60% of the perfumes or more. I am so happy that our tastes are similar ❤ Babe, I think in this video especially, I was on a roll. Usually I need to think very hard to describe perfumes. I think I know these like the back of my hand now lol. Liam Grey and Gris Charnel are 95% the same. And its reasonably priced too so pls be vary of hiked up prices. Thank you so much for having confidence in me babe. You have no idea how much it pushes me to keep going ❤❤❤ Soooo much love & light your way my hun xo
I just received Musamam White Intense as a gift and it’s GORGEOUS. Definitely long lasting on clothes. I would say 6-8hrs on skin if properly prepped. Thank you for recommending in previous videos. I definitely got compliments on it. ❤
Hi, I just received Musamam White Intense yesterday and it smells like generic men's cologne on me! Sharp, very green and bitter. Did it smell like this to you upon the first spritzes? Did it change a lot after a month of maceration? Thank you
Thank you so much my hun ❤ This is the only way I can sustain filming. Pretending is soooo energy draining lol ❤❤❤ I really appreciate your vote of confidence xo
Another great video Sim! To me Haya reminds me of the juicy couture range. Glad to see the Musamam white is in there. It’s a beautiful perfume. I’m only surprised it’s not more popular than it is! It’s a gorgeous scent.
Heya hun ♥️ Everytime I smell Haya I fall in love all over again. What a beauty. Hehe I’m happy Musamam if not very famous. The prices won’t get affected 😂
@@SiminShaikh I never thought of it that way before! I think you’re right! Highly recommend everyone to try the Empire Victor by Khadlaj if you get chance! If Kayali’s Vanilla 28 UNDERwhelmed you, then give it a go. This is EVERYTHING that Vanilla 28 should have been!!
I put away my Nasheet and Liam grey many months ago. Now, out of curiosity I searched for them. I remembered Liam to lean masculine. Now I find it to be sweeter than before. Nasheet is beautiful in a strange way. I agree, there is something refreshing about it, so it is suitable for the summer as well.
Right?! They macerate soooo well. Liam is an absolute love for me hun ♥️ Very unique and makes me feel good. Nasheet is super strange and super addictive too lol. A vanilla for summer for sure 🤗♥️
I just received Vintage Radio. OH my goodness it is a gorgeous scent. It definitely can be worn by anyone. I bought it for my husband but it is calling my name.
I love your reviews! I have never bought Arabic perfumes, but after seeing your reviews for Lattafa, I finally bought some. I love that is not only affordable but Lattafa products are phthalate free. They are also free of alcohol, aluminum, bisphenol A, chemicals, gluten, parabens, sulfate, and talc! Amazing! I bought two Lattafa perfumes. The Lattafa Mohra Silky Rose for myself and another one called "Oud" something, which was a gift. The Mohra is pretty, it's suppose to smell like rose but it really doesn't. It's still a lovely summer perfume. I get a lot of compliments when I wear it. I'd love to get more. I wish I could get some samples. Thank you for your reviews!
Heya hun ❤ Oh wow! I did not know Lattafa had so many pros as well. I am so happy you are a part of this beautiful fragrance community my hun ❤ Silky Rose will develop much more in a few weeks ❤
Omg I love your content. Greetings from Germany from a Moroccan woman who loves perfume like crazy. Amethyst was my first lattafa and it's love from the first sniff. I can't get enough of it. I can't understand the people who smell something rubbery. It is a very good perfekt mixed perfume. I have 200 perfumes and nothing smells like it. Atomic rose is nothing like this. Atomic rose smells for me more like roses musk from montale. Thx and stay like this love for you ❤️
I bought Lattafa Silky Rose because of you and I have absolutely fallen in love with it! It is the perfume I've been grabbing for the most since I got it. It does have a very happy feel and reminds me of my mom's rose garden.
I am sooooo happy you liked it babe. It is such a fav of mine. Simple yet beautiful. It puts me in a very happy mood everytime I wear it. Sometimes I feel I talk wayyyy too much about it ❤ Thank you for letting me know hun xo
I just got Nasheet and that thing is strong 💪🏾 but mine was produced in 3/2023 so it’s been sitting awhile. I love it!!! I can’t wait to wear this now it’s going until fall! I got about 6-8 hours on my skin and I still smell it on my clothes! So good I smell like a ginger snap with a vanilla lemon icing on top gorgeous 🥰🥰🥰
Our summer is far cooler than you have. I still can´t imagine using ameer al oudh in the middle of the summer. Neither Amethyst. Even though love both of them. Mohra silky rose is new on my collection but my favourite for warmer summer days. I´ve been interested in Eclair and Ajayeb Dubai, i´ll get samples of both at some point. But i have still some samples to go through before. :P Thank you for the lovely video.
Right? Lol. I sneak them in before bed sometimes while watching the telly ❤ Eclaire is the most gourmandy gourmand to have existed lol. Smells like toffee. Ajayeb is not a blind buy so I am glad you can get a sample of it first. It is an earthy mango ❤ ❤ ❤ You are always welcome my angel ❤
The most aromatic vanilla I have is Lalique le Parfum, it has a bay leaf note but it's not green. It's so strange and original and it's literally my longest lasting perfume and I don't have any other like it.
Heya hun ❤ I am planning on getting the miniature set for Lalique perfumes. I have a feeling that Lalique Le Parfum might just become an obsession for me. I cannot wait to try it out ❤❤❤
I have lalique Le perfume, one of my big favourites of their perfumes. I've also collected few other, lalique is my latest purchase, the more I use it, the more I like it. They have many great choices. Kenzo world power is another great vanilla perfume, but pretty hard to find nowadays.
@@SanjaLjubijankic I have that one too. It's a very unique scent: pencil shavings and sweet dirt lol. I think Sim loves the pencil shavings note in perfume.
I appreciate how youve described Ameer Al Oud Intense Oud bc after watching YT for about a year and pondering buying it, I finally did 2 weeks ago, and was a bit "put off" as it wasn't properly explained before I feel. At first it did not perform well at all and I didnt expect as much synthetic oud, but now I really like it bc it has macerated and its really grown on me. Also Amethyst is TOP 5 in my 50+ collection! Subscribed😊
Hi Simin, Greetings from the Southern US - Iḿ delighted to find your channel! I´ve developed an interest in Middle Eastern perfumes; they have more staying power than US perfumes, are more affordable and I like Oud. I purchased a small bottle of oud years ago, the label came off, can´t remember where I got it, still smells beautiful. Great descriptions! I´ve noted a few I want to try AND subscribed! Merry Christmas and thanks for a great video.
Hi Sim, I blind bought nasheet on your recommendation cuz I found the idea of Vicks VapoRub with vanilla to be really interesting... However, to my nose it smells nothing like what you described but I'm not complaining... cuz it turned out to be my favourite vanilla perfume 😅 To me, it smells like fresh, citrusy vanilla in the opening... probably because of the frankincense, and it evolves into a very gourmand lemon meringue pie kind of scent afterwards which I absolutely adore
I really enjoy listening to your take on the perfumes. You make me smile, and laugh and I thank you so much for being honest and making your channel most enjoyable! Great work, and I love your style and makeup looks. You channel is fun and relaxing. Its welcoming as if one is sitting with a best friend having coffee or tea and laughing. Keep up the great work!
Hello beautiful. I have Ameer Al Oudh, received it few weeks ago and I am loving it. It’s freezing cold over here in UK so this perfume has been my go to, I spray it morning and could still smell it before I get ready for bed. When I smell the Ameer Al Oudh and Oud Mood I think of you as I know u love them also. I have Mohra and Mohra silky rose on the way and cannot wait to smell them. I am going to order Liam next payday because I know it’s a much favourite by everyone and cannot wait to have it in my collection. Your last video you made I was only drawn to the Miral perfume but unfortunately cannot find it anywhere online. Keep shining bright beautiful. Sending you lots and lots of love and blessings to you, Ali and little Markus. Your wee friend PAULA 🩷🧡
Hi Simin. Great video! My favorite Lattafa fragrances are Musamam White Intense, Nebras, Khamrah, Affection, and Eclaire-I'll always have those in my collection. I also need to try Tharwa Gold; I'm sure I’ll love it. My biggest Lattafa dislike is Qaa’ed Al Fursan Unlimited :)
Hi Sim! Always love your descriptions and sense of humor. Such great videos. I watched you while I was working out and just jumped into the tub. Guess what I’m spraying on for bedtime? Vintage Radio, thanks to you. 😊
@@SiminShaikh yessssss girl , you wont believe I have now my 4th bottle since it was Released. Its only famous in fragrance community , but here in the real life , only me smelling like amethyst, and trust me people adores it
Hi Sim, I would love to see a video where you tell us about yourself and how you first came to love fragrances. A little documentary about you :) Thanks for the awesome content. Your Aussie fan Lucy xxx
You are so lovely. I can’t stop watching you. I remember last summer I got Oud Mood because you said it smelled so good. I still have not recovered. lol. I have never in my life smelled something so strong and bad on me. I should have started with something less Oud and not blind bought. I’m going to get another Arabic perfume soon though.
The notes for Vintage Radio make me wonder if it’s similar to Initio’s Paragon? Looks great! I definitely want to check out the dragon perfume! That bottle is amazing. Funny enough, snakes don’t scare me but when I was a child my grandparents had a large dragon sculpture that had red eyes..I could swear it was looking at me so I would run past it super fast and dive on the couch to hide from it 😂! Thankfully I don’t have that same fear anymore 🐲👀😭
Heya hun ❤ You are absolutely right. It is a dupe for Initios Paragon. I got a decant for Paragon and will do a side by side comparison video soon. Hahahaaa that is such a funny story! I am super scared of all reptiles though. Especially snakes and crocs . I get goosebumps just thinking about them. I sure hope not hehehee. You will like this dragon. He is cute ❤❤❤ Lol
@@SiminShaikh That’s amazing! I’m definitely looking forward to the comparison! And hahaha! Yes, I think this is one dragon I won’t run in terror from 🥰😆
My love! ❤ Every time I see your beautiful face in my notifications, it instantly brightens my day! I personally love when you post long videos. The more time I get to listen to you, the better! How is your health hon? I may be wrong but I thought your voice in the beginning sounded a bit like you may have a cold. Hope you’re well dearest, do take care of yourself ❤ P.S. Your lip color is stunning hon! 😍May I know which lipstick it is?
Hey my hun ❤ Thanks so much for noticing. That is just so sweet of you. There is a viral flu/ fever ongoing in Dubai. Ali is also quite sick. I am taking precautions like staying well hydrated and taking my Vit C/ Ginger tablets. But some days I just wake up feeling a tab bit sick. Once this season passes, we will all be fine. The lippie is from a local brand called LemonVille in the shade, Oh so sweet :)
I hope Ali is feeling better now and that this season passes soon ❤ Thank you for always replying Simin dearest. It absolutely makes my day. You’re the best!
Hi Sim! Oh dear, you sound a bit stuffy. Please take care of yourself! ❤️ Yes! I love unique fragrances, also. Life's too short for boring perfume..🙃.Nasheet is, I think, my favorite Lataffa. Stunning. I wear it to bed and I'm on my 2nd bottle. And I own Ani, too. Lol. This fragrance is up there with Khamrah...I'm surprised that it didn't make the cut! Another Lattafa that I recently discovered and am obsessing over is Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold. Such a unique fragrance with a very soft suede with caramel and vanilla. I can't wait to wear it in the winter..Not normally my type of fragrance, so this was a lovely surprise!😍
Heya hun ❤ You are so sweet my babe. Yea when the weather changes, everyone here get super sick. Ali is currently very sick and on antibiotics. I also thought I was getting sick but I am hydrating myself like a lot and taking my Vitamin C and ginger everyday. So Khamrah, Nebras etc will be in my Winter Top 15 lol. In this horrid Dubai weather I am staying away from them for now. I should have made that clear int he video, sorry lol. If you love Ishq Al Shuyukh, you will love Sehr Lattafa as well. Its just more vanilla caramel and less suede. More feminine too ❤ I too was obsessed with Ishq Al Shuyukh.
I feel like you are the best at describing perfumes. I’m currently wearing Musamam white and your description is spot on! Do you like it more than Liam Grey? Apparently they are quite similar?
Beautiful Simin, I’m so happy to have found you recently 🥰 you are officially my new favorite fragrance reviewer!! Not only are you well spoken, witty, funny and edgy, but your reviews are so down to earth, not snobby at all, and very insightful! You describe fragrances in a different way by adding details that I haven’t heard from other reviewers. I had taken Lattafa Amethyst out from my wish list but I’m definitely putting it back, I know reviews are always subjective but I’ll take my chance thanks to your eloquent description of it 💜💜💜 Btw, Liam and Vintage Radio are my favorite “going to bed” fragrances at the moment, wowzer, I just can’t get enough of them!!! 🧚🏻♀️🙃 now on to binging your channel 🤣
Hey my Hun❤ I am so happy we found each other. Thank you so so sooooo much for having confidence in me and I will always try to bring entertaining videos your way. Amethyst makes me feel like a goth queen lol. Sexy, bold and dark! Sooooo many beautiful gems to behold eh? I just hope the prices stay under control sigh... Thanks babe. You have sky rocketed my confidence today lol. Sooooo much love your way! xo ❤
@@SiminShaikh you are soooo sweeet!!! Thanks for taking the time to reply, and you are very welcome, I meant every word 🫶🏻Goth queen now that’s totally my jam 🖤🧛♀️💜 😅 Amethyst has been ordered 🥀 can’t wait to try it!! Big hugs sent your way from 🇨🇦 my lovely 🥰 thanks again
Hello l really liv videos like this,not always going with new perfumes,but taking us back to the ones that you know everything about them,and you are so sure ,it make me make a decision with great understing,on my wish list is Ramz gold , Amethyst,oud mood gold,
Heya hun ♥️ I was just telling someone else here that it was so tough to not talk more about each perfume like I usually do lol. But you are right, now I know these perfumes like the back of my hand. I am so glad you like these type of videos my hun 🤗♥️ Constantly buying new perfumes is also not very sustainable for me financially ♥️
Simin, I did not see you at the NYC launch for💗 Yara Candy 💗 by Lattafa. It was absolutely fabulous ! Even had my name engraved on the gorgeous pink bottle and got myself a nice Henna Tattoo to top it off😉
I have to say, I got very lucky to get the last one bottle Ghality from Ard Al Zaafaran . Indeed, it’s very specific smell smooth and comforting. I truly love. Very well blended no need to macerate to my nose. It gives me this wonderfully elegant vibe without fail. Definitely love at first smell
Oh my word! Even when I got it, it was the last bottle with the supplier. And it was more of a corner shop that I got it from. Isnt it absolutely beautiful. Ghality gives me peace for some reason ❤❤❤ I am so happy you found a bottle babe ❤ It is very rare.
Helllo Simin :) I enjoy a lot Your reviews and yes, I appreciate a lot the Lattafa brand. For me the best ones would be: Eternal Oud, Liam Grey, Musamaam white intense, Nasheet, Mohra Silky Rose, Maharjann Gold.
@@SiminShaikh I think its worth trying. Its a incense vanilla caramel heaven at least for me ;). Its been harmonized with a bit or herbal notes, if I well recall lavender. I enjoy it a lot, and waiting fof the winter for maturation completion and to overspray myself without cloying ;).
I love the non-floral and herbal vibe of Liam Grey. I layer it with a spritz of Soft (Al Rehab) and it makes it a touch more feminine and smells like a sugared lemon chai latte.
Oooooh I have to try this layering combo. It sounds divine ❤ You know babe, my fav layering combos are all the ones suggested by friends here on YT ❤❤❤
Great choices. I love the ones I've tried and always love your videos. You would be fun to hang out with! In other news, I combined Musamam White Intense with Infini Rose (Maison Alhambra's Atomic Rose dupe) and it was intoxicating. Who knew?
Oh em geeeeee!!! We have a winner here! I just took a shower right now and applied this combo as per your suggestion! I am floored! I love it!!! Thanks soooooo much for this really! I am so keen on trying more cold perfumes with Musamam now 😍😍😍 Wow! ♥️
@@SiminShaikh Oh, that makes me so happy! I'm glad you had both to try it. Unless you used Amethyst, which I'm sure worked just as well. And I love layering MWI with other scents, too.
I don’t have a huge collection but every Lattafa I own is lovely. I have Ajayeb Dubai portrait (much better after a months maceration), Mohra silky rose (which after a few months maceration has become so much stronger and better), Khamrah & Liam, both instant loves ❤.
You are just too cute! I have Ameer Al Oud. Wow! So intense. I like it but need it toned down and more feminine so I layered it with KK Honey and/or Sticky Dates from Lush. Mow that works. I think I layered it with Casablanca also. Love the lasting power. Use it in the dead of winter below 20 degrees. I love Fireplace but only since I bought Ameer. More “perfumey” and after Ameer, I like it even more. Have to try that Amethyst.
Simin, you've actually given me a great idea 💡 if there's arguments/fights in my household 🏠 I'm going to grab a perfume and spray it on everyone. That'll definitely get them quiet and maybe ask me... "ohhhh what fragrance is that ?! 😂😂😅 So thank you. 💓😘
Hey, my beautiful angel, so many beautiful perfumes, some of my very favourite as you know. Ameer Al Oud Intense, I have been wearing a lot this winter and a 10 out of 10 for sure. Amethyst will always be soooo loved , I give this 11 out of 10 🤣😂😅, I swear every time I wear this or just sniff it I feel like you do. It is such a beautiful goth perfume, so well blended to my nose. I never got any rubbery note at all. I love Liam so much as well and yes just like you said. I wish I had not had such a weird reaction to Dubai Portrait, I loved the scent but perhaps because I over sprayed it , got a bad asthma attack ( I did have a migraine coming on as well) and have put it away for now. I took it out once and sprayed just one spray and got a bad asthma attack again. I never experienced this with the other perfumes, but perhaps it is a coincidence so I am keeping it, letting it macerate and hope I will be able to wear it. It has all the notes I like a lot so not sure what happened there. I love Mohra Silky Rose so much. I am sure I would love all the others you mentioned and Sehr is on my wish list but it will be a long wait. I am determined not to break my own ' rule ' and want to enjoy the perfumes I now own and make scent memories with these. I love Ramz Gold soooo much but it is Gerry's now. He is right, I have so many and he does not like the idea of both of us wearing it. I would have worn it on other days 😂🤣😅 but respect that he feels it is his scent. I had such bad coughing attacks last night I feel as if I am sleepwalking, my poor body feels bruised from it all. On the plus side it is mild here after the very cold weather with 16 degrees and sunny, so I am trying to get all the washing done and drying this in the beautiful sea breeze. But the cold will return again with 8 degrees or so on the weekend. I will enjoy the 2 days of 'warmth'. I have been wearing all my winter perfumes and loving it. Am I the only one who ever layered Ameer al Oud with Amethyst, it was on a super cold day and I liked the idea of the smoky notes with Amethyst although it may be a sacrilege to wear anything else with magnificent Amethyst. I love that bottle as to me it almost reflects the personality of this perfume. I wore it going to the chemist and buying veggies at the farmer's market and felt invincible 🤣. The pharmacy assistant asked me "What is that incredible perfume you are wearing? " I almost did not wish to tell her as we are lucky in Tassie as not many people wear ME perfumes. My Hun, wishing you a wonderful day and smoochies to Markus, purrs from our 2 feline sons or sunshines, so much love, light and blessings to you, always, your Tia 😍❤💜❤💫
Hey my beautiful Angel ❤ We have soooo many perfumes that we like in common. Especially with lattafa perfumes. Dubai Portrait is a polarizing scent as well, I feel. Not everyone will like it. But I understand how some perfumes make our bodies react in a certain way. For me it is the Metallic notes and Skin like Musk. I dont get breathing issues but get migraines, nausea and my day just gets ruined. So I feel you... Liam and Silky Mohra are both such beautifully made perfumes. I am in total awe of them. Also Musamam. Yesterday someone suggested I layer Musamam with Infini Rose. I sprayed one spray of Infini Rose and two of Musamam after shower and oh my gosh! I was in heaven! ❤❤❤ Hahaha Liam is Ali's now just like Ramz is of Gerry's 🤣🤣🤣 I love how you said "but respect that he feels it is his scent" 🤣🤣🤣 Its like you are so unwilling but just have to. I feel the same about giving my Liam. I will still use it of course. Oh no, are the cough attacks due to long covid or is it a seasonal allergy babe? Gosh, it must be very bad if your body got sore from it. This only happened to me during my Covid sickness. Oh bless, what I would give to have a 16-18 degrees weather here in Dubai. It is probably the perfect temperature for me. Actually 14 degrees is probably best suited to me (Celsius). Here it is about 45-50 degrees with 75% humidity and we have all become mole people. Living indoor and hiding in dark places lol. I can imagine the compliments Amethyst must be getting. I need to go home and try the layering of Amethyst with Ameer Al Oudh coz it sounds divine ❤❤❤ Stay bless my hun ❤ I am sending healing energy your way. Love & Light my Angel, Love & Light... Yours forever, Sim ❤ xo
@@SiminShaikh My beautiful angel, oh, Ali has 'taken' your Liam, I feel for you and hear you 🤣😂, you totally get me 😄😉😅🥰. I may spray Ramz Gold 😂when Gerry has a long day at work 🤣, just very quietly. Or I have to be satisfied with smelling the cap or just follow Gerry very closely when he is wearing it 😂😉🙃. Musamam with Infini Rose sounds incredible, it will give Infini Rose that little bit more, something a touch different. I can imagine how amazing it must be. I do not have Musamam as it is still pretty expensive here and I am staying true to my decision to have a purchasing break. I actually feel as if I may have caught a cold or a chill or something on top of the long covid symptoms. I never ever had a cough like I have had since I was diagnosed with long covid. I have had pneumonia several times and have asthma so I know ( and allergies) what coughing is like and not getting your breath but never ever experienced choking from coughing fits that last sometimes up to 10 to 20 minutes ( of intense coughing ) like I have had since Covid. I have Post Nasal Drip ( now , that's a great name for a punk band 😅🤣) so the fact that there is this running down and gets on my chest and so my cough is very strong, loud and different from an asthmatic cough. It was better for a little while instead of being all day and especially night it was say 2 times a day and 5 times a night but when it got so cold it returned and then the night before it lasted 2 hours, I actually get scared I will lose my fillings 😂, I cough so hard and my damaged spinal column (C3 to C6) hates all that I feel bruised. It feels as if an earthquake is happening to me 😂all from a coughing. Poor Gerry will wake up , no matter where I try and go so he cannot hear me as it is loud. I am thinking of getting a second opinion and help as I am losing quality of life because I do not sleep. ( Lack of sleep is the worst thing for us Fibro Sisters ) . I will see what my doctor says. Apparently this sort of thing can be common in people who have auto immune disorders and got ill with Covid. They cannot say how long it will last or even if it goes away. This is why I feel perhaps I need another opinion. You poor hun, 45 to 50 Cdegrees I could not cope. I lived in Adelaide, South Australia for 2 years and 46 degrees was the highest I experienced. I was working night shift at the time and lived in an apartment without air con. Just with a fan and water cooling type of cooler. I did not last longer than 2 years in Adelaide although there were so many lovely aspects to this city. I need 4 seasons, and if I had my way, 17 to 26 C or so is my perfect weather 😄. I do not mind 30 degrees C if I am at the beach and in the ocean, but then when I get in the car to get home and night time I would love it to be cooler. Our house gets so much sunshine and is ideal for getting warmth in winter if it is sunny but on hot sunny days it can be very hot inside. We do not have air con as I do not like it but perhaps we have to get it at some stage. Downstairs is cooler so we have slept there on really hot nights. 14 degrees must sound heavenly to you , we have had a lot of humidity these last few cold weeks, 75 to 80 % with only 9 or so degrees, I hated that. I do not like extreme weather. Typical Fibro Sister , I think, I hate changes in temperature as well. I wish I could send you some cool weather. My dear Sis, sending you so much love ❤ and light 💫, always, yours forever, Tia xo ❤💜❤
Hi Sim. You mentioned Ramz Gold a few times in your videos, which made me curious about this fragrance. I saw it in Burlington for a low price today and picked one up (along with Banana Republic's Tobacco and Tonka Bean). I'm excited to revisit it again a month later since you mentioned it would take a few weeks.
Hey gorgeous ❤ OMG I've been meaning to get Banana Republic Tonka and Cherry is what I think it was called. Let me know what you think of Ramz in a month!
Hola Simin, estás preciosa hoy,pareces un ángel 😊 Amathys no me gusta 😔, quiero Liam,Mohra silky rose,Musaman White, Nasheet lo tengo y me encanta,no sé si donde vives venden los perfumes de Daniel Josier,me encantará que probaras varios, Cyrano, Black Widow,Tuberosa, Le Musk,Amber Tabac y el último Magnolia,este es muy suave pero me encanta, gracias por compartir 😘
Hola mi cariño ❤ Lamentablemente donde vivo no conseguimos los perfumes de Daniel Josier. Te sorprenderá saber cuántas marcas aún no están en los Emiratos Árabes Unidos. De hecho, incluso algunos perfumes de diseño nuevos no están disponibles de inmediato. Es triste pero podemos vivir con ello jajaja. ❤❤❤
Hi, Sim! ❤ I haven't explored Middle Eastern perfumes as much but like a broken record, I'll say that Mayar (pink) is my favorite from Lattafa. I have a decant of Ameer al Oud but mostly unused because I'm not yet used to the smell of oud in perfumes, same with Amethyst but it's my sister's decant. I agree that the packaging of Vintage Radio is ugly. I would prefer it in a radio-shaped bottle instead, given that Middle Eastern brands love making complex bottle designs. I wonder if I can get a decant of that here in the Philippines. 😅
@@itsrama27 No worries about asking many questions. Maybe 6 hours? However, almost all perfumes never last long on my skin. On clothes, it lasts so much longer.
I am so sad to hear about your fibromyaligia.. anyone criticising you for how fast you speak has clearly never visited the uK or dealt with chronic illness/pain. You are a SUPER WOMAN ! doing all the filming/uploading reviews while being in pain. I love your taste, your personality is sooo relatable and I urge you to ignore any negative comments about how fast you speak. Haters means you are successful ! They are likely jealous of you ❤ I am binge watching your videos (i have a few to catch up on) Would you be able to do a signature scent/project like crazy powerhouse autumn scents video pleasee ? ❤
Ramz Gold smells like Florida Water Soap (with added ingredients). It’s fresh, but I wish it projected better and lasted longer. The bottle is gorgeous tho!
I bought the Amethyst to save my INITIO Psychedelic Love and was not disappointed… and I own maybe 5 of the parfums featured in your video (out of 150) ❤Lattafa parfums … I am a heavy handed sprayer😂 my mom used to make drive myself, not because I didn’t smell good but these parfums are beast mode lol 😊❤
You mentioned the gas notes in the Ramz Gold. I have Mayar and Reyna and they’re both giving gas. Can you share how long it took for the gas smell to go away?
I bought tharwah gold after your recommendation. It took some time to macerate and for the notes to properly blend. It is definitely one of the most chic perfumes I own ❤ and it layers beautifully.
I think I may be in the minority here, but Mohra Silky Rose has a very faint / slightly gourmand dry down on me. Like there’s praline hiding in there somewhere lol! I still love it and am actually wearing it now. I absolutely love Crystal Noir EDT, to me it’s better than the EDP because of the addition of fig with no coconut. I like coconut but in small doses. Nasheet is absolutely brilliant; I bought Ani first UGH lol! But hey it works perfectly together because they are so similar!! My son ALWAYS compliments me on it every time I wear it, he loves it too.
You are not wrong babe. It is faint but its there. I also pick up a very very mild Biscoff kind of note in the dry down. I need to try both side by side. I think I have the EDP version of Crystal Noir coz the coconut is definitely pronounced ❤ But the ginger balances it out super well. Oh noooo lol. I want a bottle of Ani, but everytime I see the price I am like "I can live with Nasheet" lol ❤❤❤ I love how your son gives you a feedback on your perfumes. What a sweetheart ❤
@@SiminShaikh YES! That’s it! Biscoff. I couldn’t quite put my finger on it, now you’ve said that it’s clicked! Exactly. We are exactly opposite lol, I have the EDT and only smelled the CN EDP on a friend, both are absolutely lovely but there’s just something about that hidden fig note for me! And girl you can get by just fine with Nasheet, lol! Thats why I’m so salty I bought Ani first! They are sooo similar and at that price? Nasheet all day 😁❤️
You don’t kid me1 i love Nishane Ani and its a very difficult silage to dupe. I unfortunately can’t test to prove this claiming 😂😂😂 but I reckon you have tested it side by side? Niche perfumes develops scents over time and I am quite intrigued to get my hand on this one just to test. Thank you very much for the great review as always 🥰🥰🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 ❤❤❤
Good morning Beautiful Friend!❤❤❤❤ I hope that your day is going very well! I think you just sold me on Mohra Rose! Like you, rose is not a scent I gravitate towards but it sounds really lovely when you describe it! I even looked at it a few times and passed it by but I guess I needed to hear what it smells like so thank you Beautiful ❤❤❤❤
Heya my hun ♥️ Oh man the Mohra Silky Rose is a stunning scent. It is perfect for spring summer when you want to feel fresh and pretty. It is soft and feels like a silky caress 😍 I am sure you gonna love it. Just try and buy it at a reasonable price hun coz it’s old and quite economical ♥️ Sooooo much love your way my beautiful hun 🤗♥️
I love Amethyst but it does not love me. It smells amazing on my son. Eclaire is gorgeous. Liam I bought as a blind buy. I love the fragrance. Your analysis of fragrances have made me buy many a fragrance.
Heya gorgeous babe ❤ I know right?! I cant wait for cooler weather to wear it more often. By the time we hit fall in Dubai, I am sure it will reach its full potential ❤❤❤
Hello Sim❤ Just finished HOTD😊. Love Musamam White. I got my Empire Victor. OMG it’s soooo good. Also got my Blooming Bliss. Beast mode! Did you get Khamrah vibes from this?
Heya hun! ❤ I watched it last evening and I have a feeling the next two episodes will be heart breaking ones. I am questioning my choice of watching this series because I know by the end of it I will be heartbroken for sure. Since I support Team Black and all. Sigh... OMG!!! I am so happy you got the Musamam White and Victor. Polar opposite scents but both are absolutely divine ❤❤❤ I did not get Khamrah vibes from Blooming Bliss though. I do have to revisit it in the coming weeks to check on the maceration. I will keep you posted ❤
I love Ameer Al oud I layer it with opulent musk and get lots of compliments used a half a bottle in a few weeks😂😂 doesn’t smell smoky on me, ordered 2 more bottles I spray around 10 sprays I have become a oud addict
Hi from Western Australia, my daughter is getting married in the middle of our crazy 40 degree summer. She loves fragrances like coco madamoiselle but i think it’s too heavy and over used here. She wants me to buy her something, she loves Narsico Rodregus for her black bottle as well. Should would you recommend , could Mohra silky rose be ok? Thx for any help.
Came for the perfumes, stayed for your personality. So entertaining to watch.
sameeeeeee
I am a 70 years old woman and I love Liam. I do not consider it masculine at all. Thank you for your very interesting and fair presentations. Greetings from Germany ❤
Me, too. Love it!
Amethyst was the perfume that opened the gates to the middle eastern fragrances in my life. I've always been in love with dark roses perfumes and Amethyst was , and still is to me,a super fascinating super seductive scent. It was also the reason I subscribed to your lovely channel😉
❤❤
It's my most complimented perfume
It’s my number one Lattafa fragrance!
I'm okaay with Top 20 and even Top 30 😂 , I just loove the way you describe perfumes and I really enjoy your vibe , just you being you
I love:
Khamrah
Liam Grey
Mayar Natural Intense
Ameer Al Oudh Intense
Ajayeb Dubai
Lots of greetings and love from Germany! ❤😊
Heya my Hun ❤
Thanks for sharing your Lattafa favs with me ❤ They all are lovely.
Sooooo much love & light your way from Dubai xo
I bought Amethyst, Eclaire, Mohra, Haya, Mohra Silky Rose, Musamam White Intense and Nasheet all on your recommendations and not a single one has let me down. I absolutely adore all of them 😍❤️ Musamam white intense is stunning but I haven’t been able to wear it because of the ambroxan note, though I’m still hoping I somehow get used to it enough to not get headaches from it. I just don’t have the heart to give up on it.
I’m always blown away by how beautifully and specifically you describe fragrances. Your descriptions are so spot on- like about the medicine cabinet/vicks Vapor rub for Nasheet, Eclaires toffee for Eclaire, silk route for Mohra and the jammy rose for Amethyst. You amaze me hon! ❤ You never steer me wrong. And your description of Liam grey has me making heart eyes at it in my wishlist. I have a sample of Gris Charnel and love it so I’m definitely going to end up buying Liam Grey in the near future I think 😆
Heya Hun ❤
I really hope that your Ambroxan tolerance gets better coz unfortunately it is present in 60% of the perfumes or more. I am so happy that our tastes are similar ❤
Babe, I think in this video especially, I was on a roll. Usually I need to think very hard to describe perfumes. I think I know these like the back of my hand now lol. Liam Grey and Gris Charnel are 95% the same. And its reasonably priced too so pls be vary of hiked up prices.
Thank you so much for having confidence in me babe. You have no idea how much it pushes me to keep going ❤❤❤
Soooo much love & light your way my hun xo
Just buy it. You will love it.
I just received Musamam White Intense as a gift and it’s GORGEOUS. Definitely long lasting on clothes. I would say 6-8hrs on skin if properly prepped. Thank you for recommending in previous videos. I definitely got compliments on it. ❤
I know right?! Such a stunning perfume! I’m absolutely in love with it 😍♥️ I am so happy you got it babe 🤗
Hi, I just received Musamam White Intense yesterday and it smells like generic men's cologne on me! Sharp, very green and bitter. Did it smell like this to you upon the first spritzes? Did it change a lot after a month of maceration? Thank you
Your reviews are so fun and relatable! Thanks for being so genuine. I love your channel.
Thank you so much my hun ❤ This is the only way I can sustain filming. Pretending is soooo energy draining lol ❤❤❤ I really appreciate your vote of confidence xo
Another great video Sim! To me Haya reminds me of the juicy couture range. Glad to see the Musamam white is in there. It’s a beautiful perfume. I’m only surprised it’s not more popular than it is! It’s a gorgeous scent.
Heya hun ♥️
Everytime I smell Haya I fall in love all over again. What a beauty. Hehe I’m happy Musamam if not very famous. The prices won’t get affected 😂
@@SiminShaikh I never thought of it that way before! I think you’re right!
Highly recommend everyone to try the Empire Victor by Khadlaj if you get chance! If Kayali’s Vanilla 28 UNDERwhelmed you, then give it a go. This is EVERYTHING that Vanilla 28 should have been!!
Sim reviewed Empire Victor 1st, weeeeeekkkkssss ago........ Fresh out KHADLAJ bakeries 😊😊😊
@@UzoamakaO-xr1hg I know she did, just highlighting how good it really is!
I put away my Nasheet and Liam grey many months ago. Now, out of curiosity I searched for them. I remembered Liam to lean masculine. Now I find it to be sweeter than before. Nasheet is beautiful in a strange way. I agree, there is something refreshing about it, so it is suitable for the summer as well.
Right?! They macerate soooo well. Liam is an absolute love for me hun ♥️ Very unique and makes me feel good. Nasheet is super strange and super addictive too lol. A vanilla for summer for sure 🤗♥️
I just received Vintage Radio. OH my goodness it is a gorgeous scent. It definitely can be worn by anyone. I bought it for my husband but it is calling my name.
How would you describe it with the daily things we have around?
@@malenahernandez9377 I'm not sure what you mean? It is not floral or gourmand.
I love your reviews! I have never bought Arabic perfumes, but after seeing your reviews for Lattafa, I finally bought some. I love that is not only affordable but Lattafa products are phthalate free. They are also free of alcohol, aluminum, bisphenol A, chemicals, gluten, parabens, sulfate, and talc! Amazing! I bought two Lattafa perfumes. The Lattafa Mohra Silky Rose for myself and another one called "Oud" something, which was a gift. The Mohra is pretty, it's suppose to smell like rose but it really doesn't. It's still a lovely summer perfume. I get a lot of compliments when I wear it. I'd love to get more. I wish I could get some samples. Thank you for your reviews!
Heya hun ❤
Oh wow! I did not know Lattafa had so many pros as well. I am so happy you are a part of this beautiful fragrance community my hun ❤
Silky Rose will develop much more in a few weeks ❤
Just watching your channel for the first time all i was lookimg at is your beauty. I will add Amethyst to my collection
Omg I love your content. Greetings from Germany from a Moroccan woman who loves perfume like crazy. Amethyst was my first lattafa and it's love from the first sniff. I can't get enough of it. I can't understand the people who smell something rubbery. It is a very good perfekt mixed perfume. I have 200 perfumes and nothing smells like it. Atomic rose is nothing like this. Atomic rose smells for me more like roses musk from montale. Thx and stay like this love for you ❤️
I bought Lattafa Silky Rose because of you and I have absolutely fallen in love with it! It is the perfume I've been grabbing for the most since I got it. It does have a very happy feel and reminds me of my mom's rose garden.
I am sooooo happy you liked it babe. It is such a fav of mine. Simple yet beautiful. It puts me in a very happy mood everytime I wear it. Sometimes I feel I talk wayyyy too much about it ❤ Thank you for letting me know hun xo
You have a beautiful, unique way of giving vision to your words! Such as " travel chronicles " I absolutely love it!
I just got Nasheet and that thing is strong 💪🏾 but mine was produced in 3/2023 so it’s been sitting awhile. I love it!!! I can’t wait to wear this now it’s going until fall! I got about 6-8 hours on my skin and I still smell it on my clothes! So good I smell like a ginger snap with a vanilla lemon icing on top gorgeous 🥰🥰🥰
Beautiful Lady ❤...I love to watching your older Videos too ❤😘!
Our summer is far cooler than you have. I still can´t imagine using ameer al oudh in the middle of the summer. Neither Amethyst. Even though love both of them. Mohra silky rose is new on my collection but my favourite for warmer summer days. I´ve been interested in Eclair and Ajayeb Dubai, i´ll get samples of both at some point. But i have still some samples to go through before. :P
Thank you for the lovely video.
Right? Lol. I sneak them in before bed sometimes while watching the telly ❤
Eclaire is the most gourmandy gourmand to have existed lol. Smells like toffee. Ajayeb is not a blind buy so I am glad you can get a sample of it first. It is an earthy mango ❤ ❤ ❤
You are always welcome my angel ❤
The most aromatic vanilla I have is Lalique le Parfum, it has a bay leaf note but it's not green. It's so strange and original and it's literally my longest lasting perfume and I don't have any other like it.
Heya hun ❤
I am planning on getting the miniature set for Lalique perfumes. I have a feeling that Lalique Le Parfum might just become an obsession for me. I cannot wait to try it out ❤❤❤
I have lalique Le perfume, one of my big favourites of their perfumes. I've also collected few other, lalique is my latest purchase, the more I use it, the more I like it. They have many great choices. Kenzo world power is another great vanilla perfume, but pretty hard to find nowadays.
I have Perle de Lalique. It's a truly unique and beautiful scent. It's also extremely long-lasting. It's quite specific and not for blind purchase.
@@SanjaLjubijankic I have that one too. It's a very unique scent: pencil shavings and sweet dirt lol. I think Sim loves the pencil shavings note in perfume.
I appreciate how youve described Ameer Al Oud Intense Oud bc after watching YT for about a year and pondering buying it, I finally did 2 weeks ago, and was a bit "put off" as it wasn't properly explained before I feel. At first it did not perform well at all and I didnt expect as much synthetic oud, but now I really like it bc it has macerated and its really grown on me. Also Amethyst is TOP 5 in my 50+ collection! Subscribed😊
Every video like this I’m writing a shopping lis- err… taking notes. 👀 😂
Hahahaha so cute babe lol 😂❤
I have quite a few of your top tens. Nasheet sounds interesting. I happen to love frankincense and with vanilla.....yum!
Hi Simin. Such a nice video❤❤❤. More than half from your list I own and love❤❤❤. Your decriptions and comparisons are so exquisite❤❤❤
Thank you so much my hun ♥️ You have no idea how much I struggled to keep the descriptions short lol 😂
Hi Simin, Greetings from the Southern US - Iḿ delighted to find your channel! I´ve developed an interest in Middle Eastern perfumes; they have more staying power than US perfumes, are more affordable and I like Oud. I purchased a small bottle of oud years ago, the label came off, can´t remember where I got it, still smells beautiful. Great descriptions! I´ve noted a few I want to try AND subscribed! Merry Christmas and thanks for a great video.
Hi Sim, I blind bought nasheet on your recommendation cuz I found the idea of Vicks VapoRub with vanilla to be really interesting...
However, to my nose it smells nothing like what you described but I'm not complaining... cuz it turned out to be my favourite vanilla perfume 😅
To me, it smells like fresh, citrusy vanilla in the opening... probably because of the frankincense, and it evolves into a very gourmand lemon meringue pie kind of scent afterwards which I absolutely adore
I really enjoy listening to your take on the perfumes. You make me smile, and laugh and I thank you so much for being honest and making your channel most enjoyable! Great work, and I love your style and makeup looks. You channel is fun and relaxing. Its welcoming as if one is sitting with a best friend having coffee or tea and laughing. Keep up the great work!
Hello beautiful. I have Ameer Al Oudh, received it few weeks ago and I am loving it. It’s freezing cold over here in UK so this perfume has been my go to, I spray it morning and could still smell it before I get ready for bed. When I smell the Ameer Al Oudh and Oud Mood I think of you as I know u love them also. I have Mohra and Mohra silky rose on the way and cannot wait to smell them. I am going to order Liam next payday because I know it’s a much favourite by everyone and cannot wait to have it in my collection. Your last video you made I was only drawn to the Miral perfume but unfortunately cannot find it anywhere online. Keep shining bright beautiful. Sending you lots and lots of love and blessings to you, Ali and little Markus. Your wee friend PAULA 🩷🧡
Hi Simin . Great top 15 , this cheered me up today.
Thanks
Heya my hun ❤
Thanks sooooo much! Top Lattafas are really my fav videos to make coz I know them like the back of my hands ❤
Hi Simin. Great video! My favorite Lattafa fragrances are Musamam White Intense, Nebras, Khamrah, Affection, and Eclaire-I'll always have those in my collection. I also need to try Tharwa Gold; I'm sure I’ll love it. My biggest Lattafa dislike is Qaa’ed Al Fursan Unlimited :)
Hi Sim! Always love your descriptions and sense of humor. Such great videos. I watched you while I was working out and just jumped into the tub. Guess what I’m spraying on for bedtime? Vintage Radio, thanks to you. 😊
What a wonderful presentation! I, too, adore unusual fragrances. Thank you, from a new subscriber.
You are always welcome my angel! So happy to have you here! 😘💖
I adore amethyst so much. It is gorgeous ❤❤❤❤
Right?! It is like a magic potion. Sooooo beautiful and intoxicating ❤❤❤
@@SiminShaikh yessssss girl , you wont believe I have now my 4th bottle since it was Released. Its only famous in fragrance community , but here in the real life , only me smelling like amethyst, and trust me people adores it
Hi Sim, I would love to see a video where you tell us about yourself and how you first came to love fragrances. A little documentary about you :) Thanks for the awesome content. Your Aussie fan Lucy xxx
You are so lovely. I can’t stop watching you. I remember last summer I got Oud Mood because you said it smelled so good. I still have not recovered. lol. I have never in my life smelled something so strong and bad on me. I should have started with something less Oud and not blind bought. I’m going to get another Arabic perfume soon though.
Liam is so sophisticated and yummy! Also, I am a World Language teacher for High School and you said "Dulce de Leche" beautifully 😍 🙌
Right?! I love it sooooo much ♥️ Absolute stunner of a perfume
The notes for Vintage Radio make me wonder if it’s similar to Initio’s Paragon? Looks great!
I definitely want to check out the dragon perfume! That bottle is amazing. Funny enough, snakes don’t scare me but when I was a child my grandparents had a large dragon sculpture that had red eyes..I could swear it was looking at me so I would run past it super fast and dive on the couch to hide from it 😂!
Thankfully I don’t have that same fear anymore 🐲👀😭
Heya hun ❤
You are absolutely right. It is a dupe for Initios Paragon. I got a decant for Paragon and will do a side by side comparison video soon.
Hahahaaa that is such a funny story! I am super scared of all reptiles though. Especially snakes and crocs . I get goosebumps just thinking about them.
I sure hope not hehehee. You will like this dragon. He is cute ❤❤❤ Lol
@@SiminShaikh That’s amazing! I’m definitely looking forward to the comparison! And hahaha! Yes, I think this is one dragon I won’t run in terror from 🥰😆
I have 9 of the fragrances that you mentioned. They are some of my most favorites 💓
My love! ❤ Every time I see your beautiful face in my notifications, it instantly brightens my day! I personally love when you post long videos. The more time I get to listen to you, the better!
How is your health hon? I may be wrong but I thought your voice in the beginning sounded a bit like you may have a cold. Hope you’re well dearest, do take care of yourself ❤
P.S. Your lip color is stunning hon! 😍May I know which lipstick it is?
Hey my hun ❤
Thanks so much for noticing. That is just so sweet of you. There is a viral flu/ fever ongoing in Dubai. Ali is also quite sick. I am taking precautions like staying well hydrated and taking my Vit C/ Ginger tablets. But some days I just wake up feeling a tab bit sick. Once this season passes, we will all be fine.
The lippie is from a local brand called LemonVille in the shade, Oh so sweet :)
I hope Ali is feeling better now and that this season passes soon ❤ Thank you for always replying Simin dearest. It absolutely makes my day. You’re the best!
Hi Sim! Oh dear, you sound a bit stuffy. Please take care of yourself! ❤️ Yes! I love unique fragrances, also. Life's too short for boring perfume..🙃.Nasheet is, I think, my favorite Lataffa. Stunning. I wear it to bed and I'm on my 2nd bottle. And I own Ani, too. Lol. This fragrance is up there with Khamrah...I'm surprised that it didn't make the cut! Another Lattafa that I recently discovered and am obsessing over is Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold. Such a unique fragrance with a very soft suede with caramel and vanilla. I can't wait to wear it in the winter..Not normally my type of fragrance, so this was a lovely surprise!😍
Heya hun ❤
You are so sweet my babe. Yea when the weather changes, everyone here get super sick. Ali is currently very sick and on antibiotics. I also thought I was getting sick but I am hydrating myself like a lot and taking my Vitamin C and ginger everyday.
So Khamrah, Nebras etc will be in my Winter Top 15 lol. In this horrid Dubai weather I am staying away from them for now. I should have made that clear int he video, sorry lol.
If you love Ishq Al Shuyukh, you will love Sehr Lattafa as well. Its just more vanilla caramel and less suede. More feminine too ❤ I too was obsessed with Ishq Al Shuyukh.
You should do a top video that mixes all your Middle Eastern houses. I'd like to see which house has your favorite!
I feel like you are the best at describing perfumes. I’m currently wearing Musamam white and your description is spot on! Do you like it more than Liam Grey? Apparently they are quite similar?
Beautiful Simin, I’m so happy to have found you recently 🥰 you are officially my new favorite fragrance reviewer!! Not only are you well spoken, witty, funny and edgy, but your reviews are so down to earth, not snobby at all, and very insightful! You describe fragrances in a different way by adding details that I haven’t heard from other reviewers. I had taken Lattafa Amethyst out from my wish list but I’m definitely putting it back, I know reviews are always subjective but I’ll take my chance thanks to your eloquent description of it 💜💜💜 Btw, Liam and Vintage Radio are my favorite “going to bed” fragrances at the moment, wowzer, I just can’t get enough of them!!! 🧚🏻♀️🙃 now on to binging your channel 🤣
Hey my Hun❤
I am so happy we found each other. Thank you so so sooooo much for having confidence in me and I will always try to bring entertaining videos your way.
Amethyst makes me feel like a goth queen lol. Sexy, bold and dark!
Sooooo many beautiful gems to behold eh? I just hope the prices stay under control sigh...
Thanks babe. You have sky rocketed my confidence today lol.
Sooooo much love your way! xo ❤
@@SiminShaikh you are soooo sweeet!!! Thanks for taking the time to reply, and you are very welcome, I meant every word 🫶🏻Goth queen now that’s totally my jam 🖤🧛♀️💜 😅 Amethyst has been ordered 🥀 can’t wait to try it!! Big hugs sent your way from 🇨🇦 my lovely 🥰 thanks again
Hello l really liv videos like this,not always going with new perfumes,but taking us back to the ones that you know everything about them,and you are so sure ,it make me make a decision with great understing,on my wish list is Ramz gold , Amethyst,oud mood gold,
Heya hun ♥️
I was just telling someone else here that it was so tough to not talk more about each perfume like I usually do lol. But you are right, now I know these perfumes like the back of my hand.
I am so glad you like these type of videos my hun 🤗♥️ Constantly buying new perfumes is also not very sustainable for me financially ♥️
Musamam is my favorite, it is such a beautiful smelling perfume🤩❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Liam is my favorite!!! I find myself reaching for it everyday. It layers well with others even Eclaire smells lovely combined with it.
I know right?! ❤
It smells so expensive and classy. Not generic at all. I cant wait to try it with Eclaire now lol ❤ Thanks for the tip babe.
Simin, I did not see you at the NYC launch for💗 Yara Candy 💗 by Lattafa. It was absolutely fabulous ! Even had my name engraved on the gorgeous pink bottle and got myself a nice Henna Tattoo to top it off😉
I have to say, I got very lucky to get the last one bottle Ghality from Ard Al Zaafaran . Indeed, it’s very specific smell smooth and comforting. I truly love. Very well blended no need to macerate to my nose.
It gives me this wonderfully elegant vibe without fail. Definitely love at first smell
Oh my word! Even when I got it, it was the last bottle with the supplier. And it was more of a corner shop that I got it from. Isnt it absolutely beautiful. Ghality gives me peace for some reason ❤❤❤ I am so happy you found a bottle babe ❤ It is very rare.
Helllo Simin :) I enjoy a lot Your reviews and yes, I appreciate a lot the Lattafa brand. For me the best ones would be: Eternal Oud, Liam Grey, Musamaam white intense, Nasheet, Mohra Silky Rose, Maharjann Gold.
Ooooh I have yet to try Maharajan Gold. Do you think I would like it since our tastes are similar babe? ♥️
@@SiminShaikh I think its worth trying. Its a incense vanilla caramel heaven at least for me ;). Its been harmonized with a bit or herbal notes, if I well recall lavender. I enjoy it a lot, and waiting fof the winter for maturation completion and to overspray myself without cloying ;).
I have and love most of the perfumes you showed. However, my top Lattafa perfume is Nasheet ❤❤❤
I love the non-floral and herbal vibe of Liam Grey. I layer it with a spritz of Soft (Al Rehab) and it makes it a touch more feminine and smells like a sugared lemon chai latte.
Oooooh I have to try this layering combo. It sounds divine ❤ You know babe, my fav layering combos are all the ones suggested by friends here on YT ❤❤❤
Great choices. I love the ones I've tried and always love your videos. You would be fun to hang out with! In other news, I combined Musamam White Intense with Infini Rose (Maison Alhambra's Atomic Rose dupe) and it was intoxicating. Who knew?
Oh em geeeeee!!! We have a winner here! I just took a shower right now and applied this combo as per your suggestion! I am floored! I love it!!! Thanks soooooo much for this really! I am so keen on trying more cold perfumes with Musamam now 😍😍😍 Wow! ♥️
@@SiminShaikh Oh, that makes me so happy! I'm glad you had both to try it. Unless you used Amethyst, which I'm sure worked just as well. And I love layering MWI with other scents, too.
You are the funniest and cutest ting on earth❤ Love your work and the way you do it🥰
You're the best! I love making everyone laugh the most! One thing I did right during the day 🤗♥️
I don’t have a huge collection but every Lattafa I own is lovely. I have Ajayeb Dubai portrait (much better after a months maceration), Mohra silky rose (which after a few months maceration has become so much stronger and better), Khamrah & Liam, both instant loves ❤.
Are they long lasting
Sim please let my pockets rest !!! Just bought Ebhar because I know if you like it it’s amazing!! & I absolutely love it !!!❤❤️
You are just too cute! I have Ameer Al Oud. Wow! So intense. I like it but need it toned down and more feminine so I layered it with KK Honey and/or Sticky Dates from Lush. Mow that works. I think I layered it with Casablanca also. Love the lasting power. Use it in the dead of winter below 20 degrees. I love Fireplace but only since I bought Ameer. More “perfumey” and after Ameer, I like it even more. Have to try that Amethyst.
Was waiting for this video 🩷🩷🩷
Hehehe I have soooo many Lattafas I like now even after the declutter ♥️ I had to force myself not to do a whole 20 of of them 😂
Thanks for another great video! Must give Vintage Radio a go, was so put off by the name and the bottle.
Liam grey and Nasheet smell amazing on my husband. Morah silky rose is just beautiful.
My husband loves Liam so much as well. Sometimes we match and go out wearing it.
Silky Rose is probably my fav pure feminine perfume 🤗♥️
Musamam layered with Liam is amazing! They have a similar scent profile
Ooh, I love it when perfumes from the same line work well together! I'm definitely gonna wear this combo tonight 🤗♥️
Love love love your recommendations!
Thank you so much my Angel ❤ I appreciate you xo
Thank you beautiful Sim for this top 15 fragrances review!
Simin, you've actually given me a great idea 💡 if there's arguments/fights in my household 🏠 I'm going to grab a perfume and spray it on everyone. That'll definitely get them quiet and maybe ask me... "ohhhh what fragrance is that ?! 😂😂😅
So thank you. 💓😘
Hey, my beautiful angel, so many beautiful perfumes, some of my very favourite as you know. Ameer Al Oud Intense, I have been wearing a lot this winter and a 10 out of 10 for sure. Amethyst will always be soooo loved , I give this 11 out of 10 🤣😂😅, I swear every time I wear this or just sniff it I feel like you do. It is such a beautiful goth perfume, so well blended to my nose. I never got any rubbery note at all. I love Liam so much as well and yes just like you said. I wish I had not had such a weird reaction to Dubai Portrait, I loved the scent but perhaps because I over sprayed it , got a bad asthma attack ( I did have a migraine coming on as well) and have put it away for now. I took it out once and sprayed just one spray and got a bad asthma attack again. I never experienced this with the other perfumes, but perhaps it is a coincidence so I am keeping it, letting it macerate and hope I will be able to wear it. It has all the notes I like a lot so not sure what happened there. I love Mohra Silky Rose so much. I am sure I would love all the others you mentioned and Sehr is on my wish list but it will be a long wait. I am determined not to break my own ' rule ' and want to enjoy the perfumes I now own and make scent memories with these. I love Ramz Gold soooo much but it is Gerry's now. He is right, I have so many and he does not like the idea of both of us wearing it. I would have worn it on other days 😂🤣😅 but respect that he feels it is his scent.
I had such bad coughing attacks last night I feel as if I am sleepwalking, my poor body feels bruised from it all. On the plus side it is mild here after the very cold weather with 16 degrees and sunny, so I am trying to get all the washing done and drying this in the beautiful sea breeze. But the cold will return again with 8 degrees or so on the weekend. I will enjoy the 2 days of 'warmth'. I have been wearing all my winter perfumes and loving it. Am I the only one who ever layered Ameer al Oud with Amethyst, it was on a super cold day and I liked the idea of the smoky notes with Amethyst although it may be a sacrilege to wear anything else with magnificent Amethyst. I love that bottle as to me it almost reflects the personality of this perfume. I wore it going to the chemist and buying veggies at the farmer's market and felt invincible 🤣. The pharmacy assistant asked me "What is that incredible perfume you are wearing? " I almost did not wish to tell her as we are lucky in Tassie as not many people wear ME perfumes. My Hun, wishing you a wonderful day and smoochies to Markus, purrs from our 2 feline sons or sunshines, so much love, light and blessings to you, always, your Tia 😍❤💜❤💫
Hey my beautiful Angel ❤
We have soooo many perfumes that we like in common. Especially with lattafa perfumes. Dubai Portrait is a polarizing scent as well, I feel. Not everyone will like it. But I understand how some perfumes make our bodies react in a certain way. For me it is the Metallic notes and Skin like Musk. I dont get breathing issues but get migraines, nausea and my day just gets ruined. So I feel you...
Liam and Silky Mohra are both such beautifully made perfumes. I am in total awe of them. Also Musamam. Yesterday someone suggested I layer Musamam with Infini Rose. I sprayed one spray of Infini Rose and two of Musamam after shower and oh my gosh! I was in heaven! ❤❤❤
Hahaha Liam is Ali's now just like Ramz is of Gerry's 🤣🤣🤣 I love how you said "but respect that he feels it is his scent" 🤣🤣🤣 Its like you are so unwilling but just have to. I feel the same about giving my Liam. I will still use it of course.
Oh no, are the cough attacks due to long covid or is it a seasonal allergy babe? Gosh, it must be very bad if your body got sore from it. This only happened to me during my Covid sickness.
Oh bless, what I would give to have a 16-18 degrees weather here in Dubai. It is probably the perfect temperature for me. Actually 14 degrees is probably best suited to me (Celsius). Here it is about 45-50 degrees with 75% humidity and we have all become mole people. Living indoor and hiding in dark places lol.
I can imagine the compliments Amethyst must be getting. I need to go home and try the layering of Amethyst with Ameer Al Oudh coz it sounds divine ❤❤❤
Stay bless my hun ❤ I am sending healing energy your way. Love & Light my Angel, Love & Light...
Yours forever, Sim ❤ xo
@@SiminShaikh My beautiful angel, oh, Ali has 'taken' your Liam, I feel for you and hear you 🤣😂, you totally get me 😄😉😅🥰.
I may spray Ramz Gold 😂when Gerry has a long day at work 🤣, just very quietly. Or I have to be satisfied with smelling the cap or just follow Gerry very closely when he is wearing it 😂😉🙃.
Musamam with Infini Rose sounds incredible, it will give Infini Rose that little bit more, something a touch different. I can imagine how amazing it must be. I do not have Musamam as it is still pretty expensive here and I am staying true to my decision to have a purchasing break. I actually feel as if I may have caught a cold or a chill or something on top of the long covid symptoms. I never ever had a cough like I have had since I was diagnosed with long covid. I have had pneumonia several times and have asthma so I know ( and allergies) what coughing is like and not getting your breath but never ever experienced choking from coughing fits that last sometimes up to 10 to 20 minutes ( of intense coughing ) like I have had since Covid. I have Post Nasal Drip ( now , that's a great name for a punk band 😅🤣) so the fact that there is this running down and gets on my chest and so my cough is very strong, loud and different from an asthmatic cough. It was better for a little while instead of being all day and especially night it was say 2 times a day and 5 times a night but when it got so cold it returned and then the night before it lasted 2 hours, I actually get scared I will lose my fillings 😂, I cough so hard and my damaged spinal column (C3 to C6) hates all that I feel bruised. It feels as if an earthquake is happening to me 😂all from a coughing. Poor Gerry will wake up , no matter where I try and go so he cannot hear me as it is loud. I am thinking of getting a second opinion and help as I am losing quality of life because I do not sleep. ( Lack of sleep is the worst thing for us Fibro Sisters ) . I will see what my doctor says. Apparently this sort of thing can be common in people who have auto immune disorders and got ill with Covid. They cannot say how long it will last or even if it goes away. This is why I feel perhaps I need another opinion. You poor hun, 45 to 50 Cdegrees I could not cope. I lived in Adelaide, South Australia for 2 years and 46 degrees was the highest I experienced. I was working night shift at the time and lived in an apartment without air con. Just with a fan and water cooling type of cooler. I did not last longer than 2 years in Adelaide although there were so many lovely aspects to this city. I need 4 seasons, and if I had my way, 17 to 26 C or so is my perfect weather 😄. I do not mind 30 degrees C if I am at the beach and in the ocean, but then when I get in the car to get home and night time I would love it to be cooler. Our house gets so much sunshine and is ideal for getting warmth in winter if it is sunny but on hot sunny days it can be very hot inside. We do not have air con as I do not like it but perhaps we have to get it at some stage. Downstairs is cooler so we have slept there on really hot nights. 14 degrees must sound heavenly to you , we have had a lot of humidity these last few cold weeks, 75 to 80 % with only 9 or so degrees, I hated that. I do not like extreme weather. Typical Fibro Sister , I think, I hate changes in temperature as well.
I wish I could send you some cool weather.
My dear Sis, sending you so much love ❤ and light 💫, always, yours forever, Tia xo ❤💜❤
I want to buy Mohra silky rose after this video🤩
Sher stays bitter even months later but ignore that and wear it you will love it on skin when the bitter almond dry down it’s amazing 😊
Hi Sim. You mentioned Ramz Gold a few times in your videos, which made me curious about this fragrance. I saw it in Burlington for a low price today and picked one up (along with Banana Republic's Tobacco and Tonka Bean). I'm excited to revisit it again a month later since you mentioned it would take a few weeks.
Hey gorgeous ❤
OMG I've been meaning to get Banana Republic Tonka and Cherry is what I think it was called. Let me know what you think of Ramz in a month!
Just came across your site! Am so glad I did!! you are delightful and soooo funny!!! also love your opinion !!! nice to meet you!!!
Love your video ❤ ❤❤ My favorites: liam grey. portret.mohra silky rose and yud mood and lots of more 😂
Hola Simin, estás preciosa hoy,pareces un ángel 😊 Amathys no me gusta 😔, quiero Liam,Mohra silky rose,Musaman White, Nasheet lo tengo y me encanta,no sé si donde vives venden los perfumes de Daniel Josier,me encantará que probaras varios, Cyrano, Black Widow,Tuberosa, Le Musk,Amber Tabac y el último Magnolia,este es muy suave pero me encanta, gracias por compartir 😘
Hola mi cariño ❤
Lamentablemente donde vivo no conseguimos los perfumes de Daniel Josier. Te sorprenderá saber cuántas marcas aún no están en los Emiratos Árabes Unidos. De hecho, incluso algunos perfumes de diseño nuevos no están disponibles de inmediato. Es triste pero podemos vivir con ello jajaja. ❤❤❤
@@SiminShaikh te entiendo, aquí los de diseñador también tardan algunos en llegar,un besazo bella 😊
Hi, Sim! ❤
I haven't explored Middle Eastern perfumes as much but like a broken record, I'll say that Mayar (pink) is my favorite from Lattafa. I have a decant of Ameer al Oud but mostly unused because I'm not yet used to the smell of oud in perfumes, same with Amethyst but it's my sister's decant.
I agree that the packaging of Vintage Radio is ugly. I would prefer it in a radio-shaped bottle instead, given that Middle Eastern brands love making complex bottle designs. I wonder if I can get a decant of that here in the Philippines. 😅
May I ask u what does mayar smells like ?🤍
@@itsrama27 It smells a lot like Angel Nova, with lychee, rose and raspberry. Very girly of a scent.
@@xtinejoy is it long lasting ?
Sorry for asking too much 🥲
@@itsrama27 No worries about asking many questions. Maybe 6 hours? However, almost all perfumes never last long on my skin. On clothes, it lasts so much longer.
I was curious if there would be a Nebras or Maahir 😊 I love them. Lattafa has a lot of great scents.
Nebras will be back in my top Lattafa in winter lol. It will forever be in my collection my hun. Just not in 50 degrees Celsius Dubai weather ♥️
@@SiminShaikh 50 degrees Celsius is actually hard to imagine. It's 35 and I can't stand it 🫣🫣🫣
I am so sad to hear about your fibromyaligia.. anyone criticising you for how fast you speak has clearly never visited the uK or dealt with chronic illness/pain. You are a SUPER WOMAN ! doing all the filming/uploading reviews while being in pain. I love your taste, your personality is sooo relatable and I urge you to ignore any negative comments about how fast you speak. Haters means you are successful ! They are likely jealous of you ❤ I am binge watching your videos (i have a few to catch up on) Would you be able to do a signature scent/project like crazy powerhouse autumn scents video pleasee ? ❤
I didn't even notice the rate of her speech! She's so intelligent and lovely. H8rs gonna h8! 🦚🌹♥️🌹🦚
Hi darling. Can you make a video about floral tuberose scents in middle eastern? I will like so much ❤❤ thanks for your reviews. I love so so much ❤
Hey my hun ♥️
Sure I can babe. Coz I think I have plenty of Tuberose fragrances in my collection now. Soon my hun 🤗
@@SiminShaikh I'm so grateful. You're so kind. Love you
Really enjoyed this type of video. Could you do more houses?
For sure my hun ❤ Should I do Khadlaj next?
Ramz Gold smells like Florida Water Soap (with added ingredients). It’s fresh, but I wish it projected better and lasted longer. The bottle is gorgeous tho!
I bought the Amethyst to save my INITIO Psychedelic Love and was not disappointed… and I own maybe 5 of the parfums featured in your video (out of 150) ❤Lattafa parfums … I am a heavy handed sprayer😂 my mom used to make drive myself, not because I didn’t smell good but these parfums are beast mode lol 😊❤
A good day it'll be!! Sim uploaded a new video😊🎉
Hehehe you are too kind my hun ♥️🤗
❤❤...I love your videos....I am making my list....I have some of the perfumes you review....
Thank you my gorgeous hun ❤ Your appreciation means the world to me xo
My introduction to middle eastern perfumes/ my first lattafa perfume was oud mood.
You mentioned the gas notes in the Ramz Gold. I have Mayar and Reyna and they’re both giving gas. Can you share how long it took for the gas smell to go away?
I bought tharwah gold after your recommendation. It took some time to macerate and for the notes to properly blend. It is definitely one of the most chic perfumes I own ❤ and it layers beautifully.
I think I may be in the minority here, but Mohra Silky Rose has a very faint / slightly gourmand dry down on me. Like there’s praline hiding in there somewhere lol! I still love it and am actually wearing it now.
I absolutely love Crystal Noir EDT, to me it’s better than the EDP because of the addition of fig with no coconut. I like coconut but in small doses.
Nasheet is absolutely brilliant; I bought Ani first UGH lol! But hey it works perfectly together because they are so similar!! My son ALWAYS compliments me on it every time I wear it, he loves it too.
You are not wrong babe. It is faint but its there. I also pick up a very very mild Biscoff kind of note in the dry down.
I need to try both side by side. I think I have the EDP version of Crystal Noir coz the coconut is definitely pronounced ❤ But the ginger balances it out super well.
Oh noooo lol. I want a bottle of Ani, but everytime I see the price I am like "I can live with Nasheet" lol ❤❤❤ I love how your son gives you a feedback on your perfumes. What a sweetheart ❤
@@SiminShaikh YES! That’s it! Biscoff. I couldn’t quite put my finger on it, now you’ve said that it’s clicked! Exactly.
We are exactly opposite lol, I have the EDT and only smelled the CN EDP on a friend, both are absolutely lovely but there’s just something about that hidden fig note for me!
And girl you can get by just fine with Nasheet, lol! Thats why I’m so salty I bought Ani first! They are sooo similar and at that price? Nasheet all day 😁❤️
You don’t kid me1 i love Nishane Ani and its a very difficult silage to dupe. I unfortunately can’t test to prove this claiming 😂😂😂 but I reckon you have tested it side by side? Niche perfumes develops scents over time and I am quite intrigued to get my hand on this one just to test. Thank you very much for the great review as always 🥰🥰🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 ❤❤❤
Good morning Beautiful Friend!❤❤❤❤
I hope that your day is going very well!
I think you just sold me on Mohra Rose! Like you, rose is not a scent I gravitate towards but it sounds really lovely when you describe it! I even looked at it a few times and passed it by but I guess I needed to hear what it smells like so thank you Beautiful ❤❤❤❤
Heya my hun ♥️
Oh man the Mohra Silky Rose is a stunning scent. It is perfect for spring summer when you want to feel fresh and pretty. It is soft and feels like a silky caress 😍
I am sure you gonna love it. Just try and buy it at a reasonable price hun coz it’s old and quite economical ♥️
Sooooo much love your way my beautiful hun 🤗♥️
@SiminShaikh Much love back to you Gorgeous 😍 😘 💕
Lattafa doesn't sleep!!!!!❤❤😂😂
You amazing. Greetings from Poland 🇵🇱 ❤
I love Amethyst but it does not love me. It smells amazing on my son. Eclaire is gorgeous. Liam I bought as a blind buy. I love the fragrance. Your analysis of fragrances have made me buy many a fragrance.
You look so beautiful today!! 💜🌸💜🌸💜🤟🏻
Thank you so much my beautiful hun ❤❤❤ I think I feel my best in whites
Simin i love ameer al oud a lot,i wish i could wear it more as where i am is quite hot.i love your list, welldone.
Me toooo! I also wish I could wear it all the time but alas the weather here will not permit ❤❤❤
Hi lovely Sim, I am also in love with Sehr. Gorgeous gorgeous fragrance!
Heya gorgeous babe ❤
I know right?! I cant wait for cooler weather to wear it more often. By the time we hit fall in Dubai, I am sure it will reach its full potential ❤❤❤
Hello Sim❤ Just finished HOTD😊. Love Musamam White. I got my Empire Victor. OMG it’s soooo good. Also got my Blooming Bliss. Beast mode! Did you get Khamrah vibes from this?
Heya hun! ❤
I watched it last evening and I have a feeling the next two episodes will be heart breaking ones. I am questioning my choice of watching this series because I know by the end of it I will be heartbroken for sure. Since I support Team Black and all. Sigh...
OMG!!! I am so happy you got the Musamam White and Victor. Polar opposite scents but both are absolutely divine ❤❤❤
I did not get Khamrah vibes from Blooming Bliss though. I do have to revisit it in the coming weeks to check on the maceration. I will keep you posted ❤
I love Ameer Al oud I layer it with opulent musk and get lots of compliments used a half a bottle in a few weeks😂😂 doesn’t smell smoky on me, ordered 2 more bottles I spray around 10 sprays
I have become a oud addict
Can you do a video where you revisit perfumes from years ago you liked to see if you still like them?😊
I Love and enjoy your Videos so mutch ❤
You are so kind my hun ❤ Thank you for encouraging me xo
Can you tell me from lattafa would be fir Delina Exquisite Please
Vintage Radio is on my hit list now❤
Hi from Western Australia, my daughter is getting married in the middle of our crazy 40 degree summer. She loves fragrances like coco madamoiselle but i think it’s too heavy and over used here. She wants me to buy her something, she loves Narsico Rodregus for her black bottle as well.
Should would you recommend , could Mohra silky rose be ok?
Thx for any help.
Such a beautiful sweet lady, love her reviews, however frangrances mascerate before they go into the bottle, the word should be maturation.
Thx for the vid❤
Always a pleasure
Stay beautiful❤
