11 MIDDLE EASTERN "SUMMER" FRAGRANCES FOR 2024 - Part 1

[@serenaaisling2272]

I like that you have time stamp of perfume in description, easier to get back when searching for particular perfume.

[@SiminShaikh]

Thanks babe ♥️ I try and add chapters, captions and links as much as I can. I know it helps ♥️

[@starlightzz1480]

Musamam white intense is soooooooo good. Omg it's like creamy smooth and it last so long on my clothes! Amazing! ❤ I mix it with qaed al fursan unlimited or coconut paradise by be layered! Untold is soooooo strong my God it lasts so long and I have to wash my clothes twice to get just a little bit off. It's the strongest I have in my collection I think.

[@SiminShaikh]

If I could rave any more about Musamam white I would lol! I get so happy when someone experiences it and shares their positive experience with me yayyyy! Initially untold was so mild on me but now it like wowwwwww!!! 🥰♥️

Musamam White is one of my best discoveries in 2023… OBSESSED 😍

[@SiminShaikh]

Right?!!! What a stunning discovery it was. If I had to choose my fav Lattafa. There. I said it ❤

[@RebeccaMcKissick]

It’s the sexiest

[@joannasliwa8147]

Thanks for a new uploading . I have a few perfumes from Lattafa and for me Musaman White Intense is one of their best fragrances . It is so niche and luxurious . Greetings from Paris

[@SiminShaikh]

Right?! I get soooo excited when anyone mentions how much they love it. It is stunning and women especially rock it so well ❤ Thank for letting me all the way from the Fashion Capital of the World ❤ Much love from Dubai ❤

[@nine_9876]

Thanks to you, I ordered Le Prestige Empress perfume. It smells so good! I love this scent; it's definitely one of my favorites. At first, I thought it was quite weak, but everyone around me can smell it 😅 Thank you so much ❤ I often buy perfumes based on your reviews and have never been disappointed!

[@sharfalor4244]

Musamam White Intense is a real love for me. It's still mostly wet and cold in the UK. Ive been layering it with Ana Abiyedh Rouge (as suggested by A Fragrant Glance). My AAR was sat collecting dust, now I can finally wear it! Mayar Natural Intense was a successful blind buy for me too. 😊

[@SiminShaikh]

I cant wait to go home and try this layering combo. A Fragrant Glance is a genius! I need to watch her more. I have a feeling that Mayar NI will get wayyyyyy better and will change drastically in about 3 months and I cannot wait ❤

[@Lajolies2scents]

Yeah Mayar Natural surprised me. I’m not into green fragrances but there’s something enchanting about it. It’s giving clean girl vibes with slight sweetness from the fig and florals, it’s slightly aquatic, there’s greeness from the fig leaf. Surprisingly it smells nice, it even smells better when layered with the OG Mayar

[@SiminShaikh]

I could not agree with you more. It is not usually something I gravitate towards but there is some oomph about this one. I cant wait for it to macerate further and become the perfume it is intended to be ❤

[@kirstenholmes6]

I love how you explain these perfumes and attach a celebrity. I totally understand the vibe. I appreciate your videos. They are fun to watch.

[@armandoandmariavivancos6393]

Simin your videos are never too long! And you always look so beautiful! Like a real queen of arabia! I have mayar natural intense and I'm in love! I just looked up shefon and the empress one. Out of stock and 55 dollar and over. Arabian fragrances are getting more expensive by day! Thanks again for your awesome reviews ❤

[@capiyulo]

Musaman has a benzoin note. I learned that benzoin is a vanilla like scent, on Fragrantica.

[@suemenezes5992]

Your make up is always beautiful and so light

[@SiminShaikh]

Thank you my hun ❤ I tried heavy makeup in between but it was just not for me.

[@blayde_warrior7507]

Been thinking of getting Musamam White Intense for a while and this video made me finally pull the trigger and buy it. Can’t wait to receive it! Just LOVE the way you describe fragrances 😍 I’ve never been let down by your recommendations❤️

[@SiminShaikh]

OMG!!! I am getting second hand excitement from you hehe. I cant wait for you to tell me your thoughts on it. Thank you my hun. Thank you for taking time and showing kindness ❤

[@Zulleikha234]

We do care ❤ and yes finding time in ramadan is super hard

[@SiminShaikh]

Aww bless you my hun and your kind soul ❤ My upper back is always hurting offlate sigh...

[@bigolskrimps]

Thank you for this video because it is already hot here in Texas, USA. I adore your descriptions and your beautiful makeup. At first I was scared to try Musamam White Intense because it means poison in Arabic... but it smells so good-- I kept going back to it! I want to smell Hareem Al Sultan & Creation de Reve next. I trust your nose and probably would enjoy anything you recommend. Thank you!

[@shaunae6114]

I love your reviews and the way you associate each perfume with a celebrity.

[@SiminShaikh]

Hehehe thanks my hun ❤ Any visual aids that help me convey the scent to you ❤❤❤

Babe!!!! Should we make "Howdy" our thing 😂😂😂 Thanks my hun. All the colors in this dress material are sooooooo good ❤❤❤

[@DMSqueen1]

Thank you for another video Sim. I am noticing that Amazon is not discounting any Middle Eastern perfumes. Prices have been higher😢.

[@SiminShaikh]

This is just terrifying. I dont understand why the prices just keep going up. Here as well, we have lattafas going at USD85 and such

[@barryryan1948]

Hey my beautiful angel. I hear you loud and clearly. ( Not that I am reviewing perfumes or buying so many perfumes ) but I have also come to that stage right now where I stopped buying perfumes for a while. Yes, there may be one or 2 this year I will feel I want to get but firstly I am running out of space in the perfume cupboard ( and that is a huge floor to ceiling cupboard) and so I feel perfumes would be wasted as they can be kept perfectly in there for eons but I also found I really want to make new scent memories with the perfumes I now own and especially the Middle Eastern ones I bought since last May or June ( and there is no way I will count them 🤣😅, no not gonna happen) . I have a few put in the back as I still do not like them much ( 5 or so ) but hope to get back to them at some stage, 10 or so are put also in the area of much less worn perfume. The favourites are on 3 shelves and of course 17 or so are upstairs (in a dark dry perfume cupboard ) and rotated seasonally and the ones I wear the most. I now have back up bottles of 6 ME perfumes as I love them so much. Please do not laugh my beloved Opulent Red has 4 back up bottles, I kid you not. 😂 I bought Lattafa Al Nobel Wazeer as it was very cheap and I wanted this one as I do not have a scent profile like that one in my ME perfumes and it did not disappoint , I feel this one will only improve a lot with maceration but what I love about it, is that it is so different from my other perfumes. I have bought a few good quality ME perfume oils for layering and am glad I did this but , I will now resist all wonderful recommendations. The good thing is that we are in the opposite part of this globe and it is getting cooler so I am leaning towards the other perfumes which are warming and richer than the summery scents. So I am hoping this will help with my decision in not buying more perfumes as well as the temptation will not be as strong. I am looking forward to wearing perfumes like Ameer al oud as I bought this in our spring. I am trying to keep this brief 🙀😂as I want to reply to your reply .Thank you so much for another wonderful video , my dearest sis from another miss, much much love to you, of course smoochies to Markus and purrs from the our 2, love and light to you always, Tia ❤

[@SiminShaikh]

Helloooooo my Hun ❤ Hahahaa the temptation though. I need to sift through the boxes I have, coz I have a feeling I have missed some perfumes to review. And they are hiding somewhere in the boxes. I will hopefully come around doing that next month. Right now I need to ensure my videos are up and running as I will be taking a short break for Eid. Of course my Channel will have prescheduled videos in the meanwhile. I feel exhausted to be honest with you. I love recording because it feels like sharing my experience with friends but the editing part kills me. I would love to see your collection someday babe. Why dont you start you own channel and share your thoughts on them? You have a keen sense of scents and a unique way of describing perfumes. I would love to see you do that. Hahaha I would never laugh at any of your choices babe ❤ Never ever! I think my July I will be ready to declutter a lot of my perfumes. Some old that are catching dust and some new ones that are just a "No" for me. I am tempted to go on writing to you lol. But lemme cut it short (more or less). Soooooo much love & light your way my Angel and lots of cuddles and kissies to Sunti and Pushkins, your beautiful furbabies ❤❤❤ Always yours, Sim ❤

[@barryryan1948]

@@SiminShaikh Hellooooo my Hun ❤ 😆🤣 THE TEMPTATION!!!!!!!!* capital letters * It's like a ticking timebomb 💣 hahaha, I will not give in. 😁🙃 I must control myself 🤣. Oh babe, I am not surprised that you're exhausted, you will need a vacation. I can just imagine how much work the editing is. I love creating music videos and be part of the music but the editing and writing detailed information about the song, perhaps some anecdotes about Barry and the song,the listening tothe lyrics and typing them and then translating this all in German as there so many fans from my old home country, that's what takes a lot of time. I love the process of creating, especially making photo montages usingmy own shots and perhaps turning them into a pop art style but again editing it for a video takes up so much time. Often I second guess myself redo things only to find the first version was the best. I would love to talk aboutmy perfumes but could not handle seeing myself, so I would end up having to use a video of the perfume, perhaps the kitties could be sitting there instead of me? 🤣😻😺 . They would look so cute. The camera is not kind to me anymore I fear. But talking about my perfumes, especially the ones that mean a lot , that I could imagine. So much love and light to you, my sis from another miss, good night from Tasmania ❤✨🐈🐱🦘 Always yours ,Tia xx

Hey Simmi! Thanks for the video! Vintage Radio went straight to my shopping list. By the way, do you mind showing the bottles more frequently during your videos? I feel like in your recent videos we can just get a quick glimpse of the bottle in the first few seconds of you talking about the perfume, and then we just see the paper test strip :)

[@WithKat]

I love watching you♥️

[@KaMiQa16]

I got Musamam and I cant understand this perfume, it is nothing like people describe it - for me, it is Gris Charnel with a citrus opening - a warmer weather version of Gris Charnel - for me it is not your typical summer scent, it is too smoky - even like cigaret smoke at some point after spraying and fortunately disappears after 30 mins. But for me, it is neither: a summer scent nor super elegant.

[@aesinam]

That is why fragrance is subjective

Babe, sadly we do not have Orientica in the UAE. And even when we find it, it is super expensive. Like around a USD100. Orientica also happens to be a sister company of Al Haramain for western markets if I am not mistaken. From the dupes I have tried, Untold feels the closest to BR540 ❤
