Hi guys in case you want to binge watch Middle Eastern perfume content here’s my playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLvSmI5h0Tghp8Gk1pQEbkhxGxJnVdS73d.html&si=VdmJ67HEwbytR7JT Part 1 of this video is linked in the description box 😊
Yesss! I had a decant sample of Gris Charnel. Iiked it much better layered with a vanilla fragrance . Liam Grey has fulfilled my dreams of a perfect Gris Charnel vanilla mix.(it also lasts longer on skin😊)
I smelled Grand Soir and fell in love and immediately started looking for a dupe and found Ambre Eve by fragrance world and it’s really close. Not exact but close enough.
Hi Joanna! I also have Liam Grey. Gris Charnel is one of my favorite scent but it wouldn't last a whole day of work.. I would always have decant to reapply Very happy with my purchase, I always keep this one in my purse :)
Yea! Agree! It is close enough to be worth it of having instead of the OG especially if you are like me. I like to carry perfumes in my bag all the time 😊 It’s a NO GO item for me 🤣
Great video! Love your fragrance choices. I have both Afnan fragrances you mentioned. There's a few fragrances on your list that I want to try. I had Asad by Lataffa. It was very masculine so I gave it to a family member. Thanks for the review. 😊
Same here, I had Asad, I found it quite masculine n gave my brother. Everytime he wears it, I always ask him what he's wearing n he says it's d perfume u gave me 😊 ... it smells so good on him.
Joanna, this is how you influence me: I blind bought Lattafa Leen after your beautiful description! I know we have quite similar tastes, so am sure that I will love it like you do. Summer is almost here in the Philippines so I plan to wear it a lot. Thanks so much for the recommendation!
@@soffiyanomeefano4128 In Ph I buy from Shopee. Lattafa Leen I bought from Jomashop in the US. For US purchases to ship to Ph I set up a Jinio account... best thing I've ever done so it gets delivered to my doorstep.
I just bought Affection! Loveeee it! I have This is Her and definitely it is in the same category ❤. I cannot stop smelling my wrist! Thank you for your recommendation ❤❤❤ Definitely a 10/10!
Great video dear Joanna, thank you ❤. I love Rare Tiffany , which I bought even though I read some negative reviews on Fragrantica and also some negative video reviews. But this and Rare Passion are 2 perfumes that I love so much. I love wearing them especially now during our summer but wore them in winter and spring. I think Rare Tiffany has an incredible lasting power just like you said and Rare Passion on my skin does not last quite as long however I can still smell amber warmth even the next morning when I wake up. I really adore Rare Tiffany's bottle, Rare Passion is beautiful as well but the aqua colour is just so gorgeous of Rare Tiffany, lots of love from sunny warm Tasmania, Tia ❤
I agree Tia! Rare Tiffany not only smells amazing but also has an incredible lasting power and projection. I love the scent of Passion but wish it lasted longer like the sister. Thanks for sharing your thoughts my dear Tia 💕
@@alexj2802 I love Rare Passion , it has a 'hidden' soft tobacco note in it which makes it so interesting. I love Rare Passion more than Rare Tiffany, Rare Tiffany has the caramel note and I more yellow florals. I think Rare Tiffany is not such a safe buy unless you love caramel notes and yellow florals a lot. I love white florals more than yellow ones which may be why I love Rare Passion more. I wear Rare Passion a lot more than Rare Tiffany. Hope this helps
I agree, I have Lattafa Affection and for me the longevity is so bad. For a Pride Collection and for the price, the performance is so low. I had the opportunity to try the Paris Corner Khair Pistachio and it is way better and the longevity better. And the prices are almost the same.
Hi! I haven’t tried Khair yet as I have Affection already. And here, Khair is more expensive (43€). Cannot comment how they compare but for me, i love it creamier and more lactonic vibes and lasts long so I stick with Affection plus it’s €28 😉
I love your taste in fragrances! I'm also not big on florals so I trust your recommendations and love how you describe scents. I would love if you did a more in-depth video comparing Lattafa Liam and Antique!! + if you have(or anyone reading this) recommendations for alternatives/dupes for bdk gris charnel I would be so appreciative. its one of my fave fragrances but so out of my budget :(
I really enjoy your in-depth reviews, Subscribed😊.. Would you consider doing an "After Maceration" video?? I always find those enjoyable, and some fragrances REALLY do change considerably, and again, your in-depth opinion on this topic would be interesting. Ty😊
I enjoyed watch, both part 1 and 2. Thanks for the reviews. Do you think Lattafa Nashama and Vintage Radio also smell almost exactly the same? I purchased Liam Grey and Nashama online and am awaiting their arrival. The notes in Vintage Radio really appeal to me, but a male reviewer said he finds them to be identical.
Just subscribed and glad I did. How could such a beautiful persona lead me wrong? Look forward to future productions with great insights such as those featured in this!
Hi Joanna amazing review … it’s such good gems 💎 not viral that I really enjoy to watch your opinion. You are absolutely gorgeous like always ❤! Big kisses 😘
Hi Joana! What an amazing video! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts on these beautifull fragrances! I wanted to ask: from where do you get your samples? I love the variety of those you shared! I also live in Portugal and I was wondering where I could find better sample options with more variety and less common choices. Thank you so much, once again! ❤
They are not similar, they are both sweet, spicy (cinnamon) and feminine, l personaly like Casablanca better, I'm not a huge fan of Kamrah's butteryness
They are not similar therefore not redundant. Casablanca has sparkly apple feel with caramel whereas Khamrah smells like spiced cooked apple sweetened with dates. Both are great choices but decide whatever appeals to you the most 😉
Not yet! I couldn’t find it here and if there’s something it’s priced double than what it is so I’m waiting maybe a friend will visit me from Dubai and bring it for me… Have you tried it? I’m 50/50 about it because I know gourmand Kuwaiti style. It must be very sweet!
I know that Khalis Zeena isn’t part of this review but I got a sample and I’m obsessed. I can’t find it anywhere. 😢Also,Rare Tiffany is an absolute gem.
I was so lucky, after watching 2 reviews on this, positive ones I found Khalis Zeena ok UK TikTok, at 10 pounds. I couldn’t believe and I bought 2. Now jump to 30 pounds.
@@jmercadobeauty Thanks for all great reviews 👍🏼. I really like Middle East Perfum but here in Denmark many of them are difficult to find😒. If u have any idea where I can buy without pay extra tax/duties please tell me. Thank🥰
1 extravagant scent that will never be common is maison alhambra opus noir & ana abiyedh leather lattafa. My male friend and my date wear them and trust me they turns head because it is complex and non mainstream
I know, and Gris Charnel is a unisex fragrance. And both are discussed and recommended on YT channels with fragrances for men. That's why I'm asking...

Liam is on its way to me, I can’t wait.
I hope you’ll like it. Let me know as I’m curious if you will like it ☺️

Yes 🙌🏻 I agree
You just sold me! Thank you! ❤❤
Best review about these parfums I have ever watched very well done 👍🏼
Glad you like them!🙏
Liam Grey might be closer to Gris Charnel extrait because of the vanilla and sweetness
I smelled Grand Soir and fell in love and immediately started looking for a dupe and found Ambre Eve by fragrance world and it’s really close. Not exact but close enough.
Hmmm Never heard of Ambre Eve but will keep an eye. Thanks for sharing 🙏
@@jmercadobeauty I ordered it on Amazon. It’s beautiful!
I went with Ambre Eve too after finding some comparisons between ambre eve and eternal oud, bonus that it's even lower priced.
@@sharfalor4244 yeah it’s $20 on Amazon right now! So cheap for such a beautiful perfume!
Pendora also has Amber Grand

Lattafa have some amazing fragrances nice review and choice’s love the video stay motivated dream big 1 mill on the way
Your nail color is sooo cool. Is it like a purple gray that turns gold?!? So cool!

Totally agree! Glad you love it!

I have Antique and I'm totally in love!!
It is beautiful ✨
I feel like Khair Pistachio by Paris Corner is perhaps a better option than Lattafa Affection
Did you try both ?
I thought so too, I went by Khair Pistachio because some was claiming that the longevity of Paris Corner was better than Lattafa..
Dts what I hear too.
Though i have affection love n it's really getting better with time, i still wanna get my nose on khair pistachio.
I agree, I have Lattafa Affection and for me the longevity is so bad. For a Pride Collection and for the price, the performance is so low. I had the opportunity to try the Paris Corner Khair Pistachio and it is way better and the longevity better. And the prices are almost the same.

I love Eternal Oud 😍 is one of my fav fragances for fall and winter
I just bought Liam because I love chai lattes, haha. I'm loving your recommendations!
Liam is definitely giving chai latte vibe… So cozy… Thanks for watching 🥰
Yes please a detailed review on Liam Vs emarati antique
I saw lots of requests so doing it soon 💕

there is a dupe called FA Francique 63.55..I 've heard it's good but have not tried it yet.
@@HR-ki1vg tysm!! ill check that one out
@@HR-ki1vgI agree! I was going to recommend this one as well. The bottle is gorgeous as well. I have this but still want Liam as well 😂
I’ll do the comparison video soon since I had lots other requests 😊 Watch out for it 😉
Wow, the eye makeup is beautiful. Which palette did you use, may I ask?
Heyyy it’s Charlotte Tilbury Bella Sofia 💕

@@jmercadobeauty Your suggestion regarding Liam was perfect! Love it!!
Rare Tiffany is gorgeous when it's hot - like over 30C.
I love it and really tempted to buy 😣
Rare Tiffany is one of the most disgusting fragrances I've ever smelled.
I love my bottle of Affection!
It’s so good!💕
@@jmercadobeauty More reviewers are finding out about it too…
In Greece still don’t have Lattafa Affection in the shops. And actually can not it find nowhere .😞
Hey! Oriental dream has it: www.orientaldream.it/en/?refs=4639
I LOVE your reviews. It’s an oldie designer fragrance but I would love to hear your take on Jimmy Choo Flash!
I’ll keep an eye out.. 😉

Hello Maria! I get them from Anabis,Hidden samples and also from nichedecantlab (reached thru IG only)
Have you tried Vintage Radio by Lattafa? its supossed to be a dupe for Initio Paragon
I fearured it in my best video of Arabic Perfumes last month 💕 I love it!
I love grand Soir too. Ran through a 70ml bottle in two years. I intend to repurchase it.
Hi! I just discovered Fragrance World SOIR and it is a spot on dupe of it.
Hi Joanna, amazing reviews. Where do you buy the samples from?
Hi! Where are you located? I’m based in EU so I buy them here: dubaicollection.eu?ref=6605
Thank you very much for the review! I trust your opinion❤!Hello from Russia!
Thanks for watching and trusting my opinion 💕
Joanna thank you, I love Musama by Lattafa is so pretty ❤❤❤
Yesss!! I’m happy you love it 🥰
@@jmercadobeautyJoanna I also order Musamam after watching your review. I can’t wait to smell it! Now I wanna buy Antique. Thank you ❤
You videos are too good..
Could you please do a comparison of smell alike perfumes.
Ex: vintage radio vs al nashama and Liam vs niche emarati...etc
Liam and niche emirati coming soon…
Vintage Radio is more masculine leaning and Al Nashama is more feminine leaning.
Hi Joanna! Please compare those two Liam silver and Antique. Thank you ❤. I love your videos!
Will do! Watch out for it ✨
Hi Joanna I will like to see more videos of you don’t need this 😂becoming my fav middle eastern videos😊
Thanls for this recommendation. I like the idea! It’s noted 😉
Joanna, if you like Liam Grey, you might like Lataffa pride antique 1886. They are not the same but in the same vibe. Cardamon, chai vibe.
I have both and to me they are completely different, not even the same vibe 😅
@@matteoferrara3317 oh? to me they both are cardamon powdery
I think they are redundant
@@matteoferrara3317which one do you prefer? I’m so curious about those two!!
I haven’t tried 1886. Do you have both? Which one do you prefer?😁
Does casablanca smell anything like khamrah? Which is better? I have a samply of khamrah i love it but reviews for casablanca are very good too...
They are not similar, they are both sweet, spicy (cinnamon) and feminine, l personaly like Casablanca better, I'm not a huge fan of Kamrah's butteryness
They are not similar therefore not redundant. Casablanca has sparkly apple feel with caramel whereas Khamrah smells like spiced cooked apple sweetened with dates. Both are great choices but decide whatever appeals to you the most 😉
Hi Joanna, great video! Have you tried Imperial Valley Gissah?
Really want to get my hands on them. Where did you buy from? And how do you find it?
Not yet! I couldn’t find it here and if there’s something it’s priced double than what it is so I’m waiting maybe a friend will visit me from Dubai and bring it for me… Have you tried it? I’m 50/50 about it because I know gourmand Kuwaiti style. It must be very sweet!
@@jmercadobeauty Ah ha, no haven’t tried it
@jmercadobeauty no I haven't but my niece went dubai and she couldn't. There is only available in one mall in dubai but more available in Abu dhabi
@@fatimawalji8405 really? I’m so intrigued now. It must be bombastic..I can’t wait to try it…
Thanks for sharing 🙌🏽🤩
Liam Grey smells more like the Gris Charnel extrait, because of the vanilla and patchouli
Yes it has that feel but for me it’s mainly the OG in the drydown…
I know that Khalis Zeena isn’t part of this review but I got a sample and I’m obsessed. I can’t find it anywhere. 😢Also,Rare Tiffany is an absolute gem.
Heard beautiful reviews about Khalis Zeena but can't find it anywhere here.
I was so lucky, after watching 2 reviews on this, positive ones I found Khalis Zeena ok UK TikTok, at 10 pounds. I couldn’t believe and I bought 2. Now jump to 30 pounds.
Wow that’s a steal!
Wait for a while it might be available again in Anabis…

Do u prefer the khair pistachio or the affection??
I haven’t tried the Khair Pistachio.. Sorry can’t comment on that..
Heya! Can you tell me the longevity of the Liam Grey by Lattafa? Thanks.
Hi!4-5 hrs longevity and moderate projection. Same level as BDK Gris Charnel…
i have been pining away for j'dore l'or... so did i follow correctly? leen is not a dupe but similar enough to consider instead of j'dore l'or?
Hey! Leen is similar but NOT similar enough to consider instead of J’adore L’or..
I need to find Rare Tiffany because I like Tiffany a lot,Thanks😊
You will love it! 💕

Hi Joanna where do you get your samples for Arabic perfume
Hi Sue! Anabis and Hiddensamples.com 😊
Do you have Barrakat Satin Oud? And how would that compare to Rare Passion?
I don’t have Barakat Satin Mood but I have the OG Oud Satin Mood. Rare Passion is definitely more feminine like 💕
Thank you for video ❤
You're welcome 😊
Have you let the Rare passion macerate?
I have Rare passion for a while and to me it’s beautiful!
Not yet.. Well it’s a beautiful rose perfume no doubt but I wish it lasts longer than the OG Rare Tiffany…
Thank you!
Welcome!🙏 Thank you for watching

Does Liam smell masculine?
No, its a dupe for gris charnel by bdk
I know, and Gris Charnel is a unisex fragrance. And both are discussed and recommended on YT channels with fragrances for men. That's why I'm asking...
@@kari0675It's unisex but leaning towards masculine specially in the dry down.
@@faezehsang4211 Thanks. :)
I would not say it leans masculine but it's very sandalwood prominent
I get gingerbread from awsaaf.
Oooh so it’s gourmandish to you…I need to revisit 😉

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
To me Eternal Oud was too masculine and too mature, to me smelt like what a rich grandpa 😅
😅😅😅 Atleast a RICH type 🤣 Yes it leans more masculine for me as well…
