    @Skiroleta 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +21

    About your Ansam Gold: proper maceration for a middle Eastern fragrance is about 2 months (min) untouched in a dark cool place, maybe you'd want to do that. Personally I didn't test that one cos I don't like Oriana so I cannot tell you if it's supposed to smell like that or not. That being said, there's one that I completely understand and that is cultural smell that's "engraved" in our minds. Like you, I also was born and raised in a different country and there's smells in my memories that most people in America, in my case, can't relate to. That doesn't make them less real to me! For example I had no exposure to certain cough syrups common in here, so I don't find those particular smells medicinal like the locals do. On the other hand I have certain smell associations that they don't: like Ylang-ylang reminding me of the most common wood polish product in my country and disliking it in my perfumes or not too long ago trying another TikTok favorite, Cherry Punk by Room 1015 and discovering that I hated it cos the cherry/leather combination to me smells like a disinfectant they used for horse stalls and kennels in my country 😂. It was so funny! Cos everybody was singing its prayers and I sprayed once and went "nononono!" and rushed to scrub it off.

    I ordered the Babycat, Delina and the Feve Deliceuse dupes a while ago even though I have the originals, the dupes save me money because I can supplement and layer the originals on top since I'm a heavy sprayer. And if I do travel, I'll either take the dupes or decant... The OG Musamam and the White Intense are both beautiful scents and packaging. The OG is a darker, wood, oud, amber scent. I really like them both... Waiting on my Lost in a Dream!...

    I enjoy most of Paris Corner fragrance, the frenetic deliciouso is soooo good. So many viral scents just are not for my body chemistry. I so wanted to love Rare Tiffany but nope I can hardly smell it. I enjoy all of my delina dupes. Most of arabian perfumes are too manly for me but I have found some awesome fragrances. I have also learned to spray them then put in a dark place for a few months and then they are much better.

    Agree with your thoughts on Ansaam gold. For now.. I have Reyna as well.. I put them side-by-side and agree completely with your analysis. I feel like the Reyna is much more vibrant and longer lasting. love the bottle on the other one, but way overhyped and just setting you up for disappointment. You have to really be careful with these middle eastern perfumes. Something to remember on Middle Eastern and perfumes is they do not macerate them. You have to sometimes wait up to six months, so I am holding onto my bottle of Assam gold.

      Same, Ansaam gold smells like an orange based cleaner, orange citrusy, oily waxy cleaner. Not like orange glow but like “ goo be gone”, the stuff that emulsifies sticky labels off of glass jars. It also reminds me of murphys oil soap. I’m gonna put it in the back of my closet for weeks or months to see if it gets better.

    Congrats on the release of your third fragrance, my bottle is on the way! (Your description of comfort got me at a time when I needed something comforting to come my way.)
    Now, a lot of folks, myself included, enjoy Ansaam Gold, and there is nothing wrong with the quality (the packaging and sprayer are great, the fragrance performs well and is not caustic or horrifically unpleasant or otherwise defective). So while it may be overhyped and not everyone’s cup of tea, I think it’s going too far to call it “shite.” For me it’s a very cozy scent, it reminds me of a delicious detergent or fabric softener scent, or a skin scent (it does not overpower on my skin). I like to wear it with a sweatshirt on a cold day, and it’s an easy, pleasant reach.

    I bought Reyna because I always wanted to try Oriana as the notes sounded so nice. The first sprays were not good, I thought I don't even know who I can give this to so I just put it away. I remembered it a few weeks later and tried it again and it has transformed. Much better. It's still not really for me as I find fluffy scents too suffocating. (Similar to Junoon Noir not in notes but in density) I ha e found myself keep testing it though so maybe it's a grower. Powdery and toasted marshmallow I don't get the raspberry though I also found by chance a fragrance called Generation 01 by Fragrance World. The notes are identical to Armani Prive Yulong The. (Tea) I think you might like it for Summer. It's unisex, light citrusy and very cheap. Around £20 UK. Price.

  • @AnnaMariaCos
    @AnnaMariaCos 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Thank you Paulina for the amazing review ❤ I ordered Reyna pour femme and the first time I sprayed it I didn't like it. It smelled like chemically fruity vitamins from my childhood but on the other hand I loved narcotic flower from the first spray.
    I purchased from the lattafa pride 2.0 affection love which is a very close dupe of kayali yum pistachio gelato and vintage radio which is a dupe for initio parfums Paragon. I love both of them from the first spray. I bought the small 20ml bottles for around 7 euro each. I let the reyna one to macerate in a dark corner. I did the same with the maison alhambra bitter peach dupe and now its so much better. Sending you lots of love 💕

People associate scents with things, ppl, and times in our lives it can truly impact the way we feel about a fragrance.. I try and keep that in mind when someone doesn’t love something I do or vice versa ❤ still enjoyed the video!

      @yaaharriott 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree. I just got into watching perfume reviews and I am shocked at how poorly they are being described. It's hard to find those who even read the scent notes and then tell you what plays first what the dry down is, it's longevity. Is it a skin scent or better on clothing? It's change upon maceration. I'm venting...I forget it's TH-cam and not all content is created equal. 😂

      @@eberjom9119 it is possible, we all perceive fragrances differently! Rifaqaat is actually so so good on me, for me the hype is real. For me it is a beautiful, church type of seductive vanilla. This incensy peppery touch is just divine and later on vanilla comes through being more fluffy and delicious. Overall great release. But I also heard people not liking it, for some it is too sharp and peppery so I think it is just a skin chemistry 😉

To me isn’t dense as you said, in fact, it’s airy, delicate, freshness it also gives me a cooling effect and to me it’s addictive like I’ll wanna keep smelling all the time. I have also La Fleur Bouquet by Afnan it’s more similar to Armany My Way nothing similar to FN. Now I can see fragrances are pretty subjective as colors. I prefer Narcotic Flowers by MA way better and for be more as affordable one

    As far as dupes go, 2023 has been one of Zara's best years. They also seem to have strengthened the performance of their best offerings. I also wonder if they're using better ingredients than the middle eastern clones. Zara often contracts well known perfumers so it's possible their contracts guarantee that Zara has to use a certain grades of fragrance oils. The middle eastern houses are mainly using gas chromatography machines.

    • @aesinam
