Arabian perfumes I like, that smell good to me that you might want to try if you don’t have mate: Qissa Pink & Qissa Blue, Taskeen Marina & Taskeen Peach Tea (this one smells like peach rings candy), Khair Pistachio(better then Yum pistachio in my opinion), Batikh Watermelon, Dirham Wardi Ard Al Zaafaran Ladies (smells like delina La rosee in opening, then a powdery rose).
@baronesselsavonfreytag-lor11348 ай бұрын
I bought Dirham Wardi for my sister before I knew anything about Middle Eastern fragrances and it's pretty. Unfortunately, I am allergic to it and my skin breaks out in hives if I spray it on myself. Another one I gave my niece without seeing reviews was Al Ibdaa Gold (gave her boyfriend Al Ibdaa Silver) and it was also a pretty pink smelling girly girl scent along the lines of Dirham Wardi. Now I have explored Arabian perfumes more extensively and have a better handle on what's out there. Berries Weekend Pink Edition is a favorite that I have given all of my lady friends. Also Oyuny, which seems to be under everyone's radar but is delicious (Lamsat Harir is similar - if you like Elie Saab Girl of Now or Armani Si, you'll dig those). I've gifted Khaltaat al Arabia Royal Blends a few times - if you like a dark, rich, ripened fruit scent like a holiday dessert table, it's a winner. Summer Forever is a beautiful scent cloning Xerjoff Muse but it smells very much like Berries Weekend Pink and sheds glitter every time I pick up the bottle. I've heard great things about Taskeen Marina and Batikh Watermelon but haven't tried them yet! Of course, Khair Pistachio and Affection are always sold out!

I have Qissa Pink but not Qissa Blue...what does Qissa blue smell like to you. I have Tasked Peach Tea and I love it. I heard Tasked Marina was more fresh so I passed on it. The Khair one is on my radar because I've heard such good things. I'm in search for a good watermelon perfume, what are your thoughts on batikh. And dirham I've seen great things about that too!

I bought the Ajwad pink to pink, I found it to be different and interesting. I applied it to my skin and clothes before going to work. I work in retail. One of my customers went to the manager and complained that I had a strong smell of urine. On the skin it was good, on clothes it smelled completely different and was offensive, I had to declutter the perfume.

Qaed Al Fursan needs to sit. This was my first notes on it: 🤢I hate this one, smells horrible😂😉. But if you pare it with vanilla 28 it’s tolerable to me. The notes I found says: Top notes are Coconut, Citruses and Pineapple; middle Ylang-Ylang, Jasmine and Frangipani; base Vanilla, Musk and Sandalwood. After sitting I get a fresh unique tropical coconut smell, but I’m still on the fence. I’m going to let it sit more 😂😂
