@@rosalynono41 I have shaghaf oud, it is so good, I love it. But you have to love strong orientale perfumes to love it : it is a beast. Very strong perfum, great projection and longevity.
@@rosalynono41 I had shahgaf oud but I had to sell it cause it smelt too arab. Didn't suit my personality cause I like unisex/masculine perfume but the oud was too strong 😒
Your video inspired me to purchase a sampler set from Swiss Arabian. Casablanca is absolutely gorgeous! I will buy a full bottle. Arlene you are a really excellent and informative TH-camr. I value and appreciate all your posts. Keep up the great work! Love ya darlin 🤗😍🙌🏽
I have this perfume. It elegant, strong, definitely a winter scent at least for me. I really enjoy the Swiss Arabian line of perfumes. Thanks for the video.
Casablanca was the first one I tried from this brand. It was a blind buy and I liked it but I didn’t love it. It was a bit too sweet/strong for my liking so I ended ip swapping it. I also have Florence from the same line and that one I really really love. It leans a bit more feminine than Casablanca does. It’s a beautiful sweet rose fragrance along the lines of Mancera Roses Vanille and Montale Intense cafe. I am now dying to try the third one from the line called Valencia.
So many good ones from this house. I have both Attar Al Sheila and Sehr Al Sheila, also Shaghaf Oud and Shaghaf women. They also sent me some perfume oils and I love them all! I am spoiled for perfumes now. They are all so rich and dense. Shaghaf (for women) also has the green apple and caramel notes but it is softer and will be good in summer.
I have Swiss Arabian Shaghaf Oud, Shaghaf Oud Abyad and Shaghaf Oud Aswad. They’re all power houses, I mostly wear strong, more masculine perfumes. Great reviews, subbed🤗
Great scent ! Shaghof oud is too. I need to try more from this house. Ps you should cut the first 8 minutes. That’s how long it takes to open the fragrance.
Love Casablanca, caramel apple and Florence which is Strawberry and Whipped Cream. I also love Sher la Sheila and fabulous Oud and candied rose scent. They are all nice and strong. Sher la Sheila is the strongest, then Casablanca, then Florence. I also like the Armaf. La nuit for women is floral, the La Nuit for women intense is supposed to be a dupe for Tom Ford Noir.
I wanted to buy Lancome Oud Bouquet, but because of the similaritie with Shaghaf Oud I bought that one. Within 3 days I sold it because we spray Arabic houses with this scent, like a roomspray. I can't wear it on myself! Also Jo Malone and Montale both have the same similarities as Shaghaf Oud.
Ooooh now I HAVE to buy it too! I've had it in my wish list for a long time as well and you just convinced me that it's worth smelling :) I own Shagaf Oud (the gold bottle) and Hamsah from this brand. I much prefer Hamsah, which is a dupe of Le Parfum by Elie Saab. PLEASE consider trying it too! :)
Hi did you by any chance tried Dark Temptation by Belayered? It's supposed to be a really good dupe as well! Was wondering if it lives up to its expectations :)
@@Ya3niya3ni Swiss Arabian shaghaf oud smells amazing I own the original OG. For shaghaf oud price point beats belayered price, plus you get more. I bought mine from Amazon when it was at it lowest price. $27.00plus tax.
I got mine today. It smells gourmande, vanilla butter in my nose. Merry Chirstmas Ate Arlene and to your Family and followers! Btw, Lafayette galleries is giving 60%- 70%discounts on Mizenzir valentina blush...
I get fresh lemon with soap bubbles in the beginning. I can’t wait for the Apple and caramel people are speaking about. Waiting for the middle and base notes to kick in.
I got mine today, a blind buy. Wow wow wow. No words. It reminds me of the old days (all about Eve by Joop! and Miracle by Lancome), but with a warm twist to it. O yess, it also reminds me of Christmas (happy times!).
If you are intrested, please consider buying the samples, which are inexpensive. You get a chance to see which ones you will like before committing to a full bottle. I did this first and we t from there. No need to blind buy with this company.
I am a huge fan of Arabian fragrances and Swiss Arabian is a great budget Arabian house! I have them in oil form. I use the Sandalia's all the time for layering. Also like Noora for a honeyed saffron. Fadietak is a smoky, resinous incense. I just got Casablanca and have been testing it and I want to know what it smells like on your skin.
I'm curious too as I saw Sarah Mayes talking about this too. I have Shaghaf oud and I really enjoy it. It is true that it is close to Jo Malone Velvet rose & oud and Lancôme Oud bouquet. I heard some good things also about Attar al sheila and Florence but I didn't have the chance to try them.
Great info. I have a video suggestion. A video on the best most long lasting and interview/work appropriate fragrances. I am looking for the perfect fragrance(s) for an interview and an office in general.
@@DeliciousDelights Hi Arlene, just saw yr comment...sorry😊 Oud Aswad is dark, rosey, incensy...quite Arabic smelling.... I like it very much...its very classy...smells very niche like... Oud Bouquet is sweeter, playful delicious....
I've got quite a few Swiss Arabian fragrances and they all smell Great,however, Al Amaken is such a disappointment! The content of oil is so high that this perfume stains my clothes, makes my hair greasy and leaves oily mess on my bathroom floor . I've never seen anything like that. And the sprayer makes things even worse as it squirts the product in single garden hose-like portions. The scent itself is nice and sweet.
Hi Arlene. Love your videos. I have both this one and Florence. This one is beast mode! It lasts and lasts. 1-2 spritz is enough but there is something in this and Florence which I also find in light blue intense and Versace bright crystal absolute that immediately triggers a headache. I don't have migraines but these make me sick I feel. I still want to try these again few more times at different times before getting rid of them It's amazing how scents behave differently to different noses!
I prefer Florence by Arabian Swiss. I tried so much to like Shaghaf Oud but I couldn’t :( i really wanted to but it’s just odd smelling on me. I don’t mind strong fragrances...I don’t mind if it was strong on me...but there was something so off putting on me I just couldn’t. As for Casablanca..it was ok on me...it’s pleasant but not my favorite. I really liked Florence. It’s just so differently beautiful and feminine 🌺 🌲
I just received Casablanca and Private Musk from Swiss Arabian and wow is it strong . I got so dizzy after 1st spray and could hardly wash it off. I'm happy for those that can tolerate it but I can't. It's going back.
I thought I was the only one who felt that way. I brought samples (my only saving grace) and while some were ok, it wasn't enough to buy a bottle and smelling it too much can give a headache (especially in the beginning). I gave them to my mom. Gharaam smells like a stronger version of Ariana Grande's cloud perfume
Beautiful video...again Thank you for sharing I'm still looking for something very similar to GURLANE CUIR BELUGA PLEASE PLEASE CAN YOU FIND SOMETHING SIMILAR TO THIS PERFUME SND A LITTLE BIT CHEAPER... MARGARET FROM CANADA
I really like Crystal Rose; to me it feels a little bit more “put together” than Casablanca. The caramel in Crystal Rose balanced with a tart rose is just SO yummy
I like Swiss Arabian but is it just me..I get a strong whiff of hospital strength alcohol when I smell these fragrances. I ordered Casablanca and they sent me all these samples. They all started with that strong smell. I want to order Hamsah but am thinking about it hard before I do.
Hamsahhhh is totally different. It smells so much like JPG scandal because of the honey note in it. Scandal is a thick gourmand honey but hamsah is a floral honey if it makes any sense ? They literally smell the same for the first 20 mins then take their own routes .
i guess Im asking randomly but does anybody know a trick to get back into an instagram account..? I was dumb lost my login password. I appreciate any help you can give me
The green apple note in Casablanca, smells to my 1:1 like the light blue intense granny smith apple accord😋 But Casablanca is the one middle eastern fragrance, that needed the longest to macerate, the first days and weeks, it's by far not what magic you get, when you let it macerate 1-6 months, and than you will be sooo surprised and shocked....🤌🤪😉 But that's witch almost all middle eastern fragrances the case, they need time to macerate, but at this price point I can live with that easily....;)
I love how affordable Swiss Arabian is and yet it smells like money
My most complimented fragrance to date, Casablanca by Swiss Arabian. I've done a blind buy on Shagaf Oud and can't wait to get my hand on it!
Any updates on the oud
@@rosalynono41 I have shaghaf oud, it is so good, I love it. But you have to love strong orientale perfumes to love it : it is a beast. Very strong perfum, great projection and longevity.

Nice smelling but I made the mistake of spraying too much.Boy was I overwhelmed. Cloud of caramel all day.Lol
Is it sickly sweet like la vie est belle ? Or more like velvet vanilla sweet? I dont like girly candy sweet ..
It's VERY sweet yes but not cloying on me at all like LVEB is (on me anyway) :)
This is a beautiful perfume also try Florence it’s beautiful too...... my first 2 perfumes from this brand .... I’m i’m love!!! 😍😍
Yes I'm very curious about that one too now :D
Al Rehab Choco Musk 6ml oil - yummy
Layali, Amaali, Jamila. Great silage and lasting power. Each is unique. I have in the perfume oil form.
Shaghaf Oud is gorgeous! If you like white flowers, you need to check out Hamsah from swiss arabian
I love this perfume just got it for my birthday
I got it too but is this a woman fragrance?
I went to the store yesterday, i got shagaf oud of swiss arabia with 50 % disc.
Shaghaf oud, florence, attar al Sheila or sehr al sheila
Thank You so much
I will try it
Because in Canada is hard to find some name of...perfume I will have to order on the line ...

I have it it's very sweet 2 sprays I'm good all day
Ate you should try Rose 01, Hawa, Musk 07, Musk 01,
I just bought this and tried it on for the first time.... on me it smells medicinal. Nothing of caramel or apple. More like cough syrup. Disappointed
I bought Al Amaken for my wife... she loves it
Did you update on this on how it wears/skin/longevity etc I just blind bought it so I’m curious
I got mine from amazon and it did t have the little booklet in it... could mine be a fake? I paid $60 for it 😫 Does yours remove nail polish?
I have no idea unfortunately :(

GURLANE
CUIR BELUGA
PLEASE PLEASE
CAN YOU FIND SOMETHING SIMILAR TO THIS PERFUME SND A LITTLE BIT CHEAPER...
MARGARET FROM CANADA
Reminiscence Vanille is VERY similar to it :)
You gotta try Swiss Arabian Spirit Absolute! That's a very very nice fragrance.
Thanks for the tip!
Where did you purchase this at? I see varying prices
They have a large store in Las Vegas.If you order online in the US that's where your fragrance will come from.
It was a gift from my hubby but he got it from Notino :)
you can also buy samples on their website, amazon or fragrance buy
Does it smell oriental? Some oriental scents make me nauseous
I have a question. Why does the juice look darker in some reviewers and on others it’s lighter ? Just ordered from Notino and idk if it will be legit
I haven't had any issues with Notino and fakes so far and I'd guess that a perfume that isn't super expensive isn't worth getting duped. :)
Some Perfumes get darker over time, that’s probably why 🙂
How's the projection and smell
Cotton candy in a bottle.
When you opened the catalogue instead of showing the bottle. 😢😩😵
Skip ahead to 6:40 to avoid being annoyed.
Where did you cop this fellow dutchie 😘
It was a gift from my hubby but he got it from Notino.nl
I am scared to buy this because I don’t like suede and apple note in fragrances.
Where can I buy this in Australia?
I have cristal rose very nice it is like montale rose musk but beter.
I really like Crystal Rose; to me it feels a little bit more “put together” than Casablanca. The caramel in Crystal Rose balanced with a tart rose is just SO yummy
Have you tried Florence by Swiss Arabian?
I haven't...sounds great though! :)
Have you tried Swiss oud shaghaf it’s really beautiful
In your opinion this one or ANGEL MUSE SWEETER???please reply I trust your opinion!!💋💋
On me, Casablanca is more sweet :)
@@DeliciousDelights I figured that too!! I'm about to blind buy it right now ... HOPEFULLY I LOVE it 😁
So I have a 3 ml sample of this and it must have been reformulated or something bc I can barely smell anything. So disappointed
☹️
I like Swiss Arabian but is it just me..I get a strong whiff of hospital strength alcohol when I smell these fragrances. I ordered Casablanca and they sent me all these samples. They all started with that strong smell. I want to order Hamsah but am thinking about it hard before I do.
Hamsahhhh is totally different. It smells so much like JPG scandal because of the honey note in it. Scandal is a thick gourmand honey but hamsah is a floral honey if it makes any sense ? They literally smell the same for the first 20 mins then take their own routes .
Is this unisex and good for summer and spring?
I'd wear this year round, and I think most people would consider it more femme, but of course, anyone can wear it :)
@@DeliciousDelights great thank you so much!
