    Traditional ME is where I tend to gravitate. I love my Ouds and Bakhoors, Arabian style Rose, Jasmine, insense, musks, and spices. Girl, I don't need a wedding ❤ I wear these everyday weather permitting. 😊❤😊
    These are all loves ❤️
    I tend to wear Swiss Arabian, Rasasi, Arabiyat Prestige, Ajmal, Al Haramain, Arabian Oud, and Riiffs 😊 Those houses get the most use in my collection. I do wear a lot of Khadlaj too, especially the older oils. Nothing is more relaxing than bath, oud or musk oil, scenting with Bakhoor and following with perfume. I perfume my hair, my pulse points with oil, and bakhoor my clothes and hair. Last my EDP.
    I will Always have a bottle of Amethyst in my collection. I just bump it with a higher quality oud oil and you would never know it's an affordable frag. Traditional ME fragrances are my genre for sure😊 Thank you Simin you're a gem ❤
    Now, these are very affordable, so, Simin what is your most special, more expensive, traditional Eastern perfume that you would splurge on? This was fabulous and thank you.

      Hahahaa I love this babe ❤❤❤
      You are more traditional than most people here. So for me, your routine is only when I dress up for a date with Ali, or when we have traditional gatherings etc. Also, Eid of course.
      But you have absolutely tempted me to at least incorporate this during the weekends ❤ I know I will feel special like a queen ❤ And we all deserve to feel like Queens.
      So I have this set I purchase from Ajmal. They call them bridal sets. It comprises of Dukhoon/ Bakoor and Dahn all Oud Oil. This is my splurge along with a good quality pure oud oil. I have two kinds now and i keep them in the safe 😂
      Thank you my hun for sharing this and convincing me to start my long traditional pampering sessions ❤
      So much love your way ❤❤❤

      @SiminShaikh Love Ajmal, here in the States, they are becoming a bit harder to find for some reason? I am going to have to get my nose on those 😀 Whats in your safe? My Oud oil 😆 🤣 😂 😹 LOVE IT!

    Happy Wednesday Sim💗! I love when you share about your culture. Weddings sound very special. I wish there had been traditions in my family. I did not want a wedding when I married, and there was no celebration. That was my choice but at least I was madly in love. TMI. I will spray some Her Confession since I confessed.

    What a spoiling video, I greatly enjoyed it! And now I'm gonna purchase Mistery Rose🥰 I already have on the atomic theme Infini Rose, Rose Explosion . "Amethyst" was my first bottle of the starting collection bought after listening to your description of it, and yes it's one of my fav rose😍 Thank you for your shining naturalness always🤩 about roses I recently discovered ROSA TURCA by RUA 29 and find it ravishing, then I layered it with Kaheela lux that I adore even if I find it a little weak, and with Rosa Turca in the background it's a bliss🥰of course to my nose.

      @practiceyourinfinitysabrin6648 12 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@SiminShaikh dear, thank you for your kind reply. YES indeed I am😍Rosa Turca to my nose is more about Portrait of a Lady family, with a magnificent rose opening with sparkling cloves all around, then the rose is very well supported by blackcurrant -raspberry accord and it has an amazing final twists to a very seductive woody incensy envelop🥰 I truly like it and I would love to know your feelings about it. I was looking for something to enhance Kaheela Lux in some ways and even if Rosa Turca 's notes are not very much about it , surprisingly they go very well together, again to my nose of course.... If you have any layering suggestions to enhance a little the fabulous Kaheela Lux I'm all ears. 😍another new entry I truly appreciated is THOUQ, surely much more lighter but still mysterious, and a delicious light rose I do not see any review about , to me is ROSES ARE WHITE by Zimaya, this scent may seem very light ....but if you give it the time to fully express itself it reveals enchanting facets. All my blessings to you beautiful Sim💫

    I've got rose mystery intense it's nice .I have infini rose too . But french avenue rose explosion is the best one .. I've got a few shagaff ones and I also thought the black one was a masculine one so I may try that one too . Leen is absolutely stunning even back up bottle worthy . I like amethyst and must try layering it with ameer Al oud . I love marj Al sultan that's nice too. It's very similar to sjp stash have you tried that ? It's amazing. I love watching all of your recommendations and have lots of them . The only one I can't find in the UK is her confession..so I'm patiently awaiting that one .

    • @SiminShaikh
      @SiminShaikh  12 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Ooooh ive yet to try the French Avenue Rose Explosion. The thing is that I am not a very Middle Eastern Rose girlie despite what this video choices showcased lol. Lots of people perceive Shaghaf Oud Aswad as Masculine but it is a very Unisex Arabian Blend ❤ The Abyad and Azraq are quite Masculine. Please lemme know what you think of combining Amethyst, Ameer Al Oudh and Majd al Sultan together ❤ Its a lot but why not?
      Hun, I hope you get the Her Confession very very soon and at a good price. In my next video I will also review the Lactea Divina by Paris Corner for comparison ❤

    Hey my lovely angel, I love this video and from what I saw , so do so very many others. You are so lovely, so honest, so detailed in your description and are so natural, no wonder we all love you so much. Sitting down to watch you is a treat. I love green on you, my hun. Now to the incredible perfumes. Am I the first one ever to layer Amethyst with Ameer al Oudh Intense IRL? I giggled about the fact you would do this at your wedding, and top it off with a third layer of Majd Al Sultan ( I need to smell that one, not gotten this yet). If I would get married again, Gerry and I renewed our vows in 2006 when he asked me if I would marry him again ( with a new diamond ring) , I was so touched, so if he asks me again , I will obviously wear 3 perfumes , I will start with Rose Mystery in the morning, the go over the top for the ceremony with AMETHYST, and then later Ameer al oudh intense. I love these perfumes. I have been wearing Rose Mystery the last few days as I have had migraines and stress and this perfume always makes me feel so wonderful. Never ever makes migraines worse. Shaghaf Oud was the first ever M E edp spray I bought, someone had told me, this was one I needed to get to see what it was all about. I still love it but do not wear it often however love smelling the scent when I do. It felt so different and evoked all the images you talked about. I also got Qasamat Mohraf as one of the first 5 ME perfumes , I must admit I only have worn it a few times, I do not think it is perfect for me but it made me understand ME perfumes at the time as far as that one has the freshness at the start and therefore was different again. Amethyst was in the first 5 ME perfumes and I knew that I had found my soulmate of a perfume. I think it is 12 out of 10 😂❤. Total love forever. Oh and Ameer al Ouhd Intense , so lovely and magical. Rose Mystery as well. I want to get Miraj when I am able to do so , I know this would be incredible. Must go and do the housework despite a migraine hangover. Love you so much, my sister, my friend. Lots of huggies to Markus and purrs from Pushkin and Sunti. And of course warmest regards to dear Ali from me and Gerry. So much love and light to you, your Tia xxx

      Thank you for your kind words babe, but it is literally because I more or less know everyone here now and I feel like am speaking with my friends ❤❤❤
      Hahahaa! I get a little balsy with colors during fall/ winter ❤
      I am convinced that I learned the Amethyst and Ameer Al Oudh layering from you 😂
      You made me crack up with "New Diamond ring". I would have also asked for nothing less 😂😂😂
      Ok, I might just end up copying your Perfume order if I ever have a vow renewal ceremony or an anniversary milestone ❤
      Oh yes, Rose Mystery Intense is pure magic. I am so happy I tried it but I have a feeling someone asked me to try it here on YT. It is one of those perfumes that make you feel royal and spoilt.
      Oh wow!!! I didnt know your first one was Shaghaf Oud. What a way to start a beautiful ME fragrance journey ❤ I suggest you give Morhaf a whiff again, mine has changed drastically to be honest. But I am guilty all the same for not using it much.
      Ameer Al Oudh, Amethyst and Majd Al Sultan are my top 3 ME Picks forever ❤ They give me nostalgia although I discovered them literally 3 years ago 😂 But I feel ive known them for a lifetime ❤
      Babe get well soon ❤
      I am so happy to be sharing this beautiful fragrance journey with you my friend and sister ❤
      Big hugsies to Sunti & Pushkin and sooooo much love & light to you.

      I was already thinking about getting Morhaf another go and bought it back upstairs ( away from perfume prison shelf in the perfume cupboard. 🤣. I was lucky to start my perfume journey with ME perfumes with Shaghaf Oud, it was one of the most expensive ME perfumes at the time to buy Down Under and I got it from an Australian Perfume store. I wore it as soon as I got it and could not sleep that night ( it arrived at noon so this was many hours later) was the dry down was just soooo incredible, I remember the perfume coma it sent me into. I remember the first minutes that it was quite sharp and now it has matured it has deepened all the notes and just as you said, you can smell on these wonderful notes. I feel nostalgic about this perfume although it was just about one and a half years ago, but it marked such a change for me, new perfumes, new tastes and what a wonderful journey, I may have never met you without this scent, I am so grateful. I have been experimenting with layering some perfumes lately, I just go for it and some are just OK but some work out really well. I have to get my hands on Majd Al Sultan.
      I would so love to be there with you and smell at the perfumes you love and see your reaction IRL when you go into a perfume coma. 😂😍🤩.
      I am so happy I found you and found a sister in you ❤💜❤
      Big hugsies to dear beautiful Markus and purrs from Sunti & Pushkin and sooooo much love ❤& light 💛 to you.
      Wishing you a happy weekend,
      Your sis always, Tia ❤💜❤

    Hello, gorgeous girl. This was so interesting. It got me thinking about my great grandmother whom I never met but when I was young, my grandma said I looked just like her.
    She and my great grandfather were from southern India along what is now the Pakistani border. There used to be a Jewish enclave near or in Peshawar. When my aunt did a DNA test recently it showed south India and Northern Middle East.
    I never knew my grandfather's parents but apparently they were quite adventurous and that's how they ended up in New York. I think I would have liked her my great grandmother.❤❤
    Sim, please explain to me why I can find Raghba Intense comforting and warm but Oud Mood smells like motor oil and gasoline to me. They are both oud dominant, yes?
    Several of the fragrances you shared here are in my wishlist but I'm afraid to buy them. I absolutely love patchouli, saffron and rose. Maybe you know why some oud bothers me and why some doesn't?
    That color green is beautiful on you. I have a bouclé barn coat that I bought recently in a slightly deeper green and I'm absolutely in love with it! I love autumn colors, don't you?
    I hope you are feeling well. Sending all my love, dear one.❤❤

      Oh my beautiful hun ❤
      That is such an interesting story of your family history! It is a reminder of how connected we all are and how our families are a tapestry of different cultures. I love hearing about origin stories from my friends. I am also planning on getting the DNA test done. Just for kicks for me and Ali.
      Babe, your Oud Mood bottle might be a fake or gone bad. Mine is a super sweet oud. Very traditional Mukhallat perfume. Although it is very different from Raghba Intense, you should find Oud Mood simiar to Shaghaf Oud, which is its closest relative.
      Amethyst did have a rubbery opening when I first got it. So i am not sure if something is happening during the shipping process, perhaps poot temperature control? I wish everyone could first sample these perfumes coz all of them can be quite polarizing. Also, the cheaper brands use a synthetic Oud, coz the original is scarce and very expensive. Some of these synthetic ones react poorly in some blends I feel. I felt this with old Ard Al Zaafaran and Arabiyat perfumes especially.
      Right?! I usually dont wear deeper colors but in fall/ winter its a yes mam for me ❤❤❤ BTW in Korean color analysis I am a Warm Autumn lol.
      I am feeling so much better this week babe. How are things with you. Did you get the results yet? Maybe you have replied earlier on the previous video. I will check it out.
      Sooooo much love your way my beautiful friend. Always yours, Sim ❤❤❤

      I'm so sorry! Yes, I don't have Lupus at the moment or it's not bad enough that they can detect it in blood work.
      The injection in my hip helped for a couple of weeks but has mostly worn off. I have an MRI in three weeks on my low back. I have lost count of how many MRIs I've had but I'm somewhere between 20-25.😂
      I see the hip surgeon in early January and I'll be seeing my neurosurgeon sometime after to go over my MRI results. It's quite ridiculous if you ask me.😂
      I'm thrilled that you are feeling well. And yes! I think it would be really interesting for you to do your ancestry DNA with Ali.
      Thank you, for all the information on the oud fragrances. I really want to buy Shaghaf Oud and I think you're right about my bottle of Oud Mood. I'm still letting it oxidize to see if it's going to change and I'll let you know.
      I'm a dark autumn and definitely have warm undertones. It's only been in maybe the past 10 years that makeup brands have started to offer warm olive shades and colors here in the States and it's still really difficult to find clothes in colors that suit our skin tone.
      I hope you and Ali have a wonderful weekend. Kisses for beautiful Marcus too. All my love. ❤️❤️❤️

    I I listened to your selections and I got one very personal question. What perfume did you wear at your wedding? And if you could select one for the special day again in the current time, what would be the one? 😉😉😉

      Hey beautiful hun ❤
      I had worn a Agarwood Set by Ajmal, I dont remember the name anymore but the set has Bakhoor, Dukhoon and Dahn Al Oud Oil. But I remember that I added other "French Fragrances" throughout the day lol.
      If I did it now, I would start with Body Lotion and Bakhoor with Dahn al Oud Oil. Then use Amethyst, Later add Ameer al Oudh and at dinner add Majd Al Sultan.

    Hi Simin,
    Does Nudo Exotic Flowers smell the same as Mystique Bouquet from Afnan? Would it be redundant to own both? If they are similar, which one would you recommend?
    I’ve noticed that Middle Eastern perfumes, whether from different brands or even the same brand, often share a similar DNA. Sometimes, they smell so alike that it feels like a waste of money to have both. That’s why I always try to find out which perfumes resemble each other before deciding what to buy.

      I could not agree more. CDN Intense is mesmerizing. While Bayaan is very Arabian, it lacks the Noir quality CDN Intense possesses. It is more girlie girl. I have notices people either love it or absolutely hate it ❤

      Hey beautiful,
      So Bakhoor/ Dukhoon is usually Oud/ Wood chips/ shavings soaked in perfume oil. We burn it on coal to create perfume smoke. Then we smoke our hair, body and clothes with it. I had made a video on it a while back. Lemme share the link here.
