[@MercyandAgape]

Lattafa has been putting pressure on some middle eastern perfume houses, other houses have stepped up their perfume game. They are all serving topnotch quality nowadays

[@SiminShaikh]

I agree 100%. We have so many amazing releases this year! And I am sure we will be riding the gravy train for a long time to come ❤❤❤

[@mariamel-fahoum4689]

I really love the house of khadlaj.. They make such good quality perfumes, and they really put a lot of thought into their presentation, packaging, and scents.

[@SiminShaikh]

Right?! They deserve so much more love and recognition ❤ I cant wait to try all their perfumes ❤❤❤

[@blayde_warrior7507]

Aww hon, I’m so sorry about the pain you’ve been in. Thank you so much for still putting in so much effort and making these videos for us. You’re an absolute gem ❤ Your videos literally just brighten up my entire week!

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey my super gorgeous hun ❤ Thank youuu. I am so sorry to get you worried about me. Your girl is a trooper and will be back on track soon ❤ You have literally made my day and put a smile on my face. Thank you ❤

[@CreTaylor]

Love your channel❤️ I have fallen head over heels for Eclaire!!! Lataffa did an excellent job with that one! Mines even has decent lasting power. So glad to hear it has your stamp of approval! Hope you feel better sim!

[@DMSqueen1]

I ended up with 2 bottles of eclaire ( broken sprayer). Hate the bottle but love love love the juice. Can’t wait for it to macerate. You look beautiful as usual Sim💗

[@SiminShaikh]

Oh noooooo. I am so sorry babe. The bottle feels very cheap in the hand doesn't it. I think I have this weirds thing for how a bottle holds int he hand. I am such a weirdo lol ❤❤❤ The juice is just wow!

[@magiswiterland4777]

Love the red and white! You looked stunning mashallah 😍

[@SiminShaikh]

Thank youuuu my hun. I love reds and whites together but don't see it worn much together ❤ Sooooo much love your way ❤❤❤

[@lyndahancy5535]

Oh beautiful lady, I wish you had no pain, but you still are so joyous to watch and listen to. I hope you feel better soon, we love you. ❤

[@jamieb4904]

Hi, I have 2 bottles of Bayn Al Asrar, Both my bottles are BEAUTIFUL from beginning to end… (which is why I have 2 bottles)… I do Not Smell any “bad note” or rotten fruits in the beginning, I think you may have a bad batch… It didn’t even need maceration, BUT, I agree it only lasts for 7-8 hours, so I am currently trying to macerate my 2nd bottle for a few months & will see if there is any difference in the lasting power after that. Thanks for reviewing Cherry Bouquet, I have been wanting that one.

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey my Hun ❤ Thank you for that ❤ I think one of their batches has a problem, coz so many people feel the same way as me. It does smell like the perfume went bad and it take 40minutes for that sour/ pickle bad smell to go away :( It is sad coz I really wanted this one. I might reach out to them and figure this out. Oh Cherry Bouquet is the Queen! ❤ I'm obsessed ❤❤❤

[@Born2resist_]

Eclaire is the closest I’ve found to Bianco Latte, lasts ages too. £50 here in UK and It’s worth every penny - longevity was there immediately upon opening and actually may even have the potential to become better than the OG as it’s a bit sweeter! Thank you for the video despite being in pain - always appreciate your hauls!!

[@TheCupatcake]

Thank you, I need to get Eclaire and Cherry Bouquet ❤ cant wait them to get here in Europe

[@SiminShaikh]

Heya hun ❤ I hope they reach you soon! You will be fall/ winter ready hehehe❤

[@whitneydavis9423]

Omg so excited for this video!!!!

[@SiminShaikh]

Yayyy! Thanks so much hun. Another haul video coming on Thursday hopefully if I get done with editing on time ❤❤❤

[@JessiAngel143]

I ordered Eclaire when it came out and it did not need maceration. It stayed on my skin until I washed it off. (Ten hours) Very very very happy with this purchase. I am a person that judges vanillas very harshly and this is amazing! I even like the bottle because it’s supposed to be melted caramel. Feel better Sim 💛

[@SiminShaikh]

Thank you my gorgeous hun. I will wear Eclaire tomorrow on both my skin and clothes. Another user asked me to wear it on clothes coz it lasts longer? Regardless, I do love the scent so much! P.S. Your DP is inspiring me to get fit asap! ❤

[@ParadiseBlue-ni8yr]

Love your fragrance review Simin. Lattafa Eclaire smells so good! Hope you feel better.

[@SiminShaikh]

Thank you so much my Angel ❤ Keep me in your prayers babe ❤ I am wishing the pain away ❤

Great review! I was looking forward to hearing about Eclair!

Hi simin I love khadlaj fragrances, always well blended.❤

[@mercy930]

Dear Simin, thank you for video, excellent review 😍👌🏽

[@ReinaAhmed-ck4ob]

Please do a video on perfumes literature edition (like Catherine from wuthering heights).

[@SiminShaikh]

That is a brilliant idea!!!! I shall do us my Lady ❤❤❤

[@tina_smt]

I need all of these! Been trying to get Mystique Boutique and will add cherry Boutique when it’s available in Canada. I already have Bianco Latte, so May pass on Eclaire. I thought Guidance was too strong so the dupe may be better. 😊

[@SiminShaikh]

I have a gut feeling I might end up getting the predecessors of the Afnan Bouquet Collection just for the bottles lol ❤❤❤ Yea it is pointless to have any dupes of Bianco Latte if you already have the original which is just wow!!!

[@mariapizarrosath8147]

My eclair was produced on May 2024 so yes it needs to macerate

[@radioblast88]

I think this is their first batch. Mine is produced in the same month and it smells like Nebras to me. I love it but I sure hope it macerates into something a bit different from Nebras, because I was shocked to perceive it that way. I read a comment from someone with the same feedback before I ordered it

[@mariapizarrosath8147]

@@radioblast88 I got nebras, to me they don’t smell the same at all.. weird 🧐 it smells like caramel cascade with a light twist to me

[@SiminShaikh]

Yea mine as well. I think it will ultimately get much thicker ❤

[@DDH64812]

Thank you, great haul! Loved the review 😊 the La Fede fragrance caught my eye for sure.

[@SiminShaikh]

The La Fede Opera set really intrigued me. They are stark opposites but oh so beautiful on their own and layered together ❤

[@DDH64812]

@@SiminShaikh I'll be on the look out for the Khadlaj Opera set. I'm not finding them here in the states 😕 I would love to see an in depth review on that set for sure 😀 I hope your pain passes quickly and you're feeling better very soon.

Hi Sim! I love your videos I always get so excited when I get a notification that you posted a new video! You should definitely do a video about what perfumes greek gods and goddesses would wear!

[@SiminShaikh]

This! This is why I love you! Thank youuuuuu! I will surely make one for the Greek Gods soon ❤ Lots of amazing perfumes are already in my mind for them ❤

[@blayde_warrior7507]

My stunning Queen is back with another banger video 😍❤️ I can’t wait for Eclaire to be available in my country! Caramel Cascade was such a disappointment 🥲

[@SiminShaikh]

Heyaaaa my hun ❤❤❤ I know right?! It is funny how these caramel perfumes are popping up like mushrooms and its not even Gourmand season lol. Eclaire is a May 2024 release so I hope it reaches you after a bit of maceration all ready to be used up ❤❤❤

[@TechGeekDame]

Awww. I'm sorry you in pain Simin. Sending healing vibes. Thank you for the wonderful video! 🥰

[@heatherpurvis2792]

love the video, I have been trying Eclaire and I find it slightly better than Bianco Latte. I find 'something' in Bianco Latte a bit screechy or just 'something' that I don't like. Eclaire doesn't have that 'something' lol I found Eclaire lasted and lasted on clothes. I sprayed on a sweater and I could smell it 2 days later. I did get Bianco Latte lotion and I layer Eclaire with that.

[@SiminShaikh]

What an awesome idea to layer the lotion with Eclaire wow! ❤ To me the Bianco is just an itsy bitsy bit better. But that's on my skin. Lemme try testing Eclaiere on clothes only ❤❤❤ Thanks for sharing your experience babe ❤

[@helenahempton2661]

⁠​​⁠​I don’t think any of us should feel bad about buying dupes, the markup on perfume is so high and ridiculous. I think the only time you shouldn’t buy a dupe is when it’s from small fragrance house. Those don’t get duped as often as the corporation fragrance house tho. Just my two cents lol. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I was waiting for this review of Eclair. I had been starting at and wondering if I should get it. In the end I decided not, but I'm interested in your thoughts. I looooove the Afnan bouquet bottles, I have the other 2 and really like them side from longevity 😔 Lately, I've been wanting more interesting and abnormal scents rather than traditional. And I've found I don't like honey in perfume.

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey lovely, Yea Eclaire is not something you can wear all the time. You have to be in a mood to smell like Toffee lol. Should I buy and review the other two from Afnan's Bouquet line? ❤ I am intrigued but at the same time its florals so I am a bit reserved about it. Me toooooo!!! I also love weird scents. I know its not for everyone but I am so done with generic perfumes. This happens when you are wearing perfumes for yourself and not others I believe ❤❤❤

[@vanity_case_makeup]

Sim! I'm so glad you mentioned that opening on Bayn Al Asrar, it's like a weird plastic note for me for a few minutes and then the magic happens! I would say it's definitely worth it to wait for the dissapation of that opening but I hope it'll go away! Also, question. I love Mystique Bouquet 💐. One of my favorites this year. Any other floral musky amboxan bombs in that price range from Afnan or any other middle eastern brands? It's just so good and now I'm dying to find another similar frag! Hope you feel better! ❤

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey my Hun ❤ You know my batch smell like perfume gone bad. Dill/ pickle juice smell. And the Guidance part comes in after 40 minutes. So I have a feeling that i have received a bad batch of this perfume unfortunately. I will try and find more Clean Girl Perfumes for you babe and make a video. Clean Girl Aesthetic is not a strong suite of Middle Eastern brands though lol ❤❤❤

[@vanity_case_makeup]

@@SiminShaikh so weird how that works! That's why fragrances are so interesting to me, besides smelling amazing I think it's so interesting how different the same scents are to us! And I definitely know the clean girl vibe isn't really my fave either (I don't like really soapy or fresh things, more of a woody gourmand spicy sweet girly) so that's why I was a little hesitant on Mystique Bouquet but I love ambroxan so that's the secret sauce I believe! But, now I'm on the hunt to find something else that is like that, haha. Interested to try more Afnan, only other I have now is Cherry Bouquet 🍒 💐 Thanks for the reply! Sending love and good vibes!

How do perfumes get to fragrantica? There are many missing from many brands and I was curious what is the process of adding a perfume ,it anybody knows

Hey my Hun ❤ As far as I know, Fragrantica team uploads perfumes themselves based on searches. A brand can email them to introduce themselves but I am not sure that helps.

I 100% agree with your review on Bayn, it smells Nothing like Guidance. It smells like something gone bad for sure. Maybe we got a Very Bad batch. I've had mine for almost 1 month, and it is still bad. BTY, I love the original Guidance

Oh noooo. This is very sad. Coz some users are having such a good day with Bayn Al Asrar. We have definitely received a batch that has gone bad. I am going to try and speak with Paris Corner although I think it will be in vain. No harm trying though ❤

[@user-yc4tr7gz5w]

Спасибо, что рассказали про cherry. Раньше хотела купить lovely chèrie, но купила отливант boutique, запах очень красив. Хочу купить флакон.

[@SiminShaikh]

О боже, вам понравится Cherry Bouquet от Afnan. Это самый сексуальный вишневый парфюм, который я когда-либо встречал. Пьянящий, сладкий и острый одновременно ❤❤❤

[@angelahicklin4487]

Hi Simh, thank you for such a great video, I love you and you are my favorite KZbinr ❤❤ I am wondering is it redundant to own both mohra rose and the opera rose L’Or perfumes? Thank you so much, hope you have a nice day

[@angelahicklin4487]

I’m so sorry you have been in pain, I will pray for you ❤

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey my hun ❤ Thank you sooooo much for your kind words. It means so much to me. I do think it is redundant to have both. But after you finish the Silky, go for Rose L'or coz it is definitely more elevated and longer lasting. Please do pray for me hun. Pls pray for my pain to go away and for my mind to be in peace ❤❤❤

[@lucia3]

Hi Simin. Thanks for the review. Talking about dupes. For me, it's not between the OG and the dupe. I don't decide whether I'll buy Bianco Late or a 30$ dupe. For me, it's between 30$ Bianco Late dupe and another 30$ perfume.

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey my hun ❤ Hahaha I feel you. I am in the same state now. Its 10ml OG vs 100ml Dupe lol. Eclaire so far is the closest to Bianco latte ❤

[@cerisekarpinski9697]

WILL YOU PLEASE DO A REVIEW ON THE PERFUME IN BACK OF YOU THAT IS BLUE AND YELLOW SITTING NEXT TO GHALITY?

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey my Hun It is called Dar Al Hae and it is by Ard Al Zaafaran. Lemme makes a refresher video for this one. Basically it is a non serious version of La Nuit Tresor. And I love it ❤❤❤

[@LadySax45]

Omg you have fibromyalgia? I know how you feel because I have fibro fog myself! And I have the flair ups that makes you want to cry! I want to try the guidance dupe! I’m thinking about doing perfume reviews! Thank you for sharing! You look beautiful even if you are hurting ❤

[@SiminShaikh]

My Angel, that was me yesterday babe. Crying for no reason. Hiding so that no one sees me crying. The pain was unbearable. But today i feel better. The Fibrofog though.... Babe!!!! Don't even think for a second. Start the review channel. It is so fulfilling and will be a great outlet for you. Don't overthink it and just start ❤❤❤ Please let me know when you do ok? I hope you live a peaceful, pain free life full of love and fulfilment ❤

[@LadySax45]

@@SiminShaikh I sure will let you know when I’m ready! I have no idea what I’m doing and I don’t have all the lights and a camera so I’m just waiting until I can figure out what comes next! You have a a blessed a pain less or pain free day!!!! Soft hugs! ❤❤❤

Hey If you can make a fragrance for men, that would be highly appreciated (middle eastern)

[@janett1870]

Hi I own Bianca latte I heard from other you tuber the Claire is a good dupe of Bianco latte I will buy the dupe to have a back up an I would like to try the cherry one in the future I don’t think is available in America yet😊

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey my hun ❤ Don't worry. By the time it reached you, it will be better macerated and you can enjoy it immediately ❤❤❤ The Cherry Bouquet is a bomb!!! I love it so much ❤

[@franckcervera9182]

Good morning! I subscribed to your channel a few weeks ago and I developed a passion for perfumes only a few months ago. I really appreciate your videos but also your personality, rich in meaning. do you plan to test the maahir range? I hope to have the pleasure of reading you. see you soon on a next video Ps :i am french

[@belinda4732]

Does the cherry bouquet smells like the Cherry dupe from alhambra? (the red exact same bottle as TF)

[@SiminShaikh]

To be very honest I have no idea my hun ❤ I do not have any of the TF dupes from Maison AlHambra :(

[@sharfalor4244]

Ohh, wonder what it is in the opening of Bayn al Asrar that bothers you? I adore the opening because it smells like hard boiled pear drop sweets to me.

[@SiminShaikh]

I have a feeling it is a batch problem. Coz the internet is divided. Some are absolutely loving the opening but others like me smell perfume gone bad in the opening ❤

[@sharfalor4244]

​@@SiminShaikhoddly, it's the opening of Guidance that seems to divide people too.

[@cynthiaprzybylinski4842]

Simmie, I've been using this brand for health called Duo Life. I believe it's out of Poland. I'm in US. I have polish friends that got me started. It's expensive. Research and listen to the reviews. It's not a quick fix. You do start seeing a change in 3mths.

[@pedropererabetancort3177]

Hii, I wanted to ask you about which one, Opulence Oud or Oud for Glory?? In terms of quality and the arab vibe, I mean, like as sheiks, thank youuuu

[@SiminShaikh]

Heya my hun I am so sorry I cannot be much help. I have not tried the Opulence Oud yet. But I can tell you Oud for Glory Sheikhness is strong! ❤❤❤

[@mayehernandez6562]

[@SiminShaikh]

Much love your way babe ❤

[@juliek7675]

I dont know how old you are but maybe your experiencing perimenopause. It does a number on your mind AND body everybody has different symptoms. I too thought i might have had alzheimers and my arm “froze” i couldnt lift it up high like the shoulder joint muscles were locked and causes pain if i try to stretch it. There are many videos on KZbin. I think youre young but check it out. Btw love youre videos!

[@SiminShaikh]

Oh no. I am so sorry my hun ❤ I hope you are at ease now and feeling better. I got myself checked for early PM and doc said its all good for now. Unfortunately I suffer from Fibromyalgia and lots of inflammation. I have been strictly advised to stay off Gluten, Lactose, Processed food and have to manage my stress. Recently I had a stressful event in my life and everything went for a toss after that. Right now, I am focusing on getting back on track. Wish me luck ❤

[@ulomaokwuosa6054]

I agree…. Bayn isn’t impressive and it has that weird smell . Love Éclaire ! The performance does get better . Been eyeing Cherry Bouquet but what I need to know is it if it performs better than Lost Cherry

[@SiminShaikh]

I think we are the victims of a bad batch. This sucks lol. Do you also get the pickle/ perfume gone bad smell? Eclaire will be just ready to use once fall hits Dubai hehehe ❤ Cherry Bouquet lasts all day! It is delicious, dark and sexy. I love it! ❤

[@ulomaokwuosa6054]

@@SiminShaikh yes I do get that bad, sour smell! You’re the only reviewer who’s pointed it out. I thought my nose was broken😄. I layer my éclaire with a few sprays of the real Bianca. I can’t wait until fall 😄. I have 2 back ups of it ‘just in case’ 💕

[@SiminShaikh]

Me tooo! I was wondering what happened but so many people are facing the same issue 😫

[@ulomaokwuosa6054]

@@SiminShaikh hopefully it gets better . For now I’ll keep spraying the real guidance until Bayn behaves herself 😄 Feel better soon x

Could you please answer the following! What’s the best dupe for Arabians Tonka? Karus secret musk Noir d’Arabie Mountain Nuit Paris

[@Lajolies2scents]

Mountain Nuit is a 1 to 1 identical dupe Karus Secret Musk is like Arabians Tonka and Instant Crush had a baby I haven’t tried Noir d’Arabie

[@missa4716]

@@Lajolies2scents thank you!!

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey Hun! I could not have answered this query for I have not tried Noir D'Arabie or Mountain Nuit. So I am soooo thankful to @Lajolies2scents for clarifying that. Karus Secret Musk does feel like Arabians Tonka and BR540 had a baby to me as well ❤❤❤

Sadly, the Opera rose ones are not available here in the United States but I see online in the United Kingdom

Hello my hun ❤

[@empressnampreti1174]

Does anyone knows where you can get the Opera Rose L'or in the USA? I am not finding it anywhere 😢

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey my babe ❤ Lemme try and approach La Fede for clarity ❤❤❤

[@janetn9942]

I think Bayn Al Asrar the juice is pink, and the bottle is frosted/clear. Not a pink bottle

[@SiminShaikh]

That makes sense lol. It is a beautiful pink though isn't it? ❤❤❤
