Love your content. It’s original and honest so Thank You !! I have quite a few Lattafa/Maison Alhambra fragrances. The one that surprises me is Ameer Al Oudh. I’ve had it for about a year now and when I first smelled it it had a funky new tire smell to me. Over time it’s changed and now I get the beautiful caramelized sugar / vanilla, marshmallow scent and it’s awesome. You have a few I don’t and because of your video those are now on the way !! Thanks again and keep doing your thing .
Yes, 100% fair point with using expensive fragrances. I bought it to be able to wear it whenever I want to. Even when I go to Tesco I put Armani or Jean Paul Gaultier or for ex. Versace. I don't give a damn and honestly having over 100 bottles now I will never run out of designer juices. Good evening to You, Sir and to everyone watching
Same. I cut down the number to around 10 and I still feel like they will last me forever. (at least now I can see big "dents" in them) Have a nice day, Paweł.
I don’t own many fragrance clones, but I have Detour Noir and also PDM Layton. I totally understand what you’re saying because I didn’t even touch Detour until I was down to the last 10 ml of Layton. Now, I’m using up the clone (a year after I got it).
Started collecting in 2013 after wearing YSL L'Homme on a consistent basis. I'm glad we have so many middle Eastern options. My all time favorite is Armaf CDNI EDP.
18:55 I somewhat feel the same way. I have absolutely nothing against clones (it's the fakes that pretend to be the real thing that I hate) but I find that when I buy a clone of something, if I smell the original, through sampling or whatever, no matter how close the clones are, I end up buying the original anyway, which to me sort of seems like a waste of money, so cut back on some of my spending, I just sample and buy the original.
Ansaam Silver, clone of The Most Wanted by Azzaro, and Jasoor, clone of Valetino Coral Fantasy, are excellent scents. I recently got The Kingdom, which mimics JPG Le Male Elixir, it's a great alternative.
I would really love to get your thoughts on Ishq Al Shuyukh Silver, 1886, 1505 and 1910. Supposedly silver is close to 1 million lucky and 1910 is close to elixier. But I just haven't seen much on the year line from many people. I have also heard that Blue Sapphire is a slightly less college boy smelling version of Eros. While Royal Sapphire is a more citrusy cleaner scent that dries into BR540 both of which would also be really cool to get your thoughts. The other thing I would absolutely love to get your thoughts on is the brand Electemus. They are a smaller fragrance brand out of the UK and all of their fragrances have some sort of Roman theme to them and they have Wonderful bottles. They are definitely on the pricey side but they also have a 20 fragrance sampler whose cost can then be applied to a full bottle. Trajan and Imperium are great and a friend of mine has made Summanus his go to date night scent for a few years.
Some absolute classics there. And your descriptions on them is pretty spot on. I urge you to pick up lataffa the kingdom if you haven’t already. It’s so so so good. Great longevity. A little sweeter than le male elixer but I’d say slightly better .
The life is too short so wear the better one... because shit happens to you that you couldn't ever have imagined...that hit home. Liked that though interjection
On love or hate im usually on thr hate side but for some reason I find Zanzibar amazing. It's like a milky sweet earthy coconut chutney with a little spice
Assuming you don't already own them, Lattafa Liam Grey, Lattafa Jasoor, and Maison Alhambra Exclusif Tabac are worth checking out. I enjoy them quite a bit! 🍻
@@ParagonFragrances Not a problem & ditto. I currently have Lattafa Alhambra Smoky (Formerly Tabac) in my cart. I'm looking to offend a few "Karens". Lol! 🍻
When I have the original and a really good clone I usually smash the clone all over my body and use the original around my neck, so I’m using the original sparingly but still using it. This method has served me well
That's cool you decided to just do your own thing. Not needing to pick up every new release for the sake of a review. I respect your opinions on what you do review. 👊🏽
Every song is someone's favorite song, and every fragrance is someone's favorite fragrance.
Except for Joop Homme.

I bought Kamrah last year. The opening is a bit strong for me, but that dry down is epic.
Ansaam Silver, clone of The Most Wanted by Azzaro, and Jasoor, clone of Valetino Coral Fantasy, are excellent scents. I recently got The Kingdom, which mimics JPG Le Male Elixir, it's a great alternative.
The Kingdom Men, Lattafa Hayaati, Lattafa Fakhar, and Al Nashama Caprice are some of my favourite Lattafa's in my collection.
That Paragon mentality of using the OG more than the clone regardless how good or better than clone is is just BASED mindset. Respect.
Initio Paragon mentality?))

I just love The Kingdom, my brother owns Elixir and I can't smell a gap in terms of quality, considering it's a third of the price.

Must haves: Khamrah, Ansaam Silver, Kayaan Classic
Nice video thanks :) Try Liam grey, Atlas and all 3 Quaeed, bangers AF ♥
Forgot I had Liam, Love that stuff.
I will give Atlas and Quaeed a look!
Assuming you don't already own them, Lattafa Liam Grey, Lattafa Jasoor, and Maison Alhambra Exclusif Tabac are worth checking out. I enjoy them quite a bit! 🍻
Thanks for the tips! Looking for some good offerings for some pick ups.

I have Khamrah, Liam Grey, Oud for Glory and Ta'weel. I get a lot of great wearing from Ta'weel and Liam Grey. Just ordered Vintage radio today
Ooh Liam Grey is great, i forgot to add that one, but I love it.
@@ParagonFragrances it's really great, and I have Gris Charnel Extrait too and this one really stands up
wearing Vintage Radio today in San Diego, cold mornings and beautiful partly sunny afternoons. Go Dodgers!
I resisted getting Khamrah (the OG) for a while, but I'm so glad I picked it up. You might not like it because it is heavily sweet, though.
You should try Ishq Al Shuyuk Gold. Leather and vanilla, similar vibes to Bvlgari black and Prada Black
I have to say Khamrah Quickly became a favorite of mine after wearing it
one of my fav lattafa fragrances is turathi blue it's a bvlgari tyger clone .It smells amazing and performs well.
Its from Afnan
@ oh damn your right it’s afnan my bad, afnan turathi blue
EJazze is very similar CH Men by Carolina Herrera
Could you do a review on His Confession - that's the only one that interests me from lataffa, but please be brutal with your review! 🐒
Halloween Man X layered with the original Khamrah makes a damn good coffee type scent.
Vintage Radio, Anssam Silver and The Kingdom are my favorite..Ishq Al Shuyukh Silver is underrated
Ansaam Silver is so underrated
Aww man.. just as I was getting my popcorn ready for the “gossiping” 😂
I gotta get better at not letting things slip. 🤣

Wear your most expensive fragrances all the time, because you are never promised tomorrow
I’m blind buying Khamrah qahwa and Vintage Radio for sure now
I don't own any Lattafa now.
My last Lattafa was Asad Zanzibar the last nail in my Lattafa coffin.
I don't think I will ever own any again from them.
I don't blame you.

Zanzibar to me doesn't smell bad. But it's not something I would wear as a fragrance.
Too bad you didnt ranked them. I also like Jasoor in my collection and i am very interested in The kingdom and qaa'ed intense

When I have the original and a really good clone I usually smash the clone all over my body and use the original around my neck, so I’m using the original sparingly but still using it. This method has served me well
I understand the cost factor and some people might even like the scent. I’m very tired 6 from the brand and they were all trash.
I blind bought Vintage Radio because it was cheap and everyone raves about it...definitely NOT for me.
There's a rumor going around about a new LATTAFA coffee fragrance.
LATTAFA KHAMRAH NAHIM
That's cool you decided to just do your own thing. Not needing to pick up every new release for the sake of a review. I respect your opinions on what you do review. 👊🏽
Zanzibar is better than asad for me
Come on Assad is stinky 😁
Seems like a very honest sit down fragrance review. You’ve earned yourself a fan in me sir 🫡
I appreciate that!
Zanzibar is one of the worst lattafas
R u from Patagonia or Paraguay?
Colorado
Haha!
