Armaf Club de Nuit Iconic REVIEW | Best BDC Clone? | Glam Finds | Fragrance Reviews |

[@jaybowie6529]

Very nice review and thank you!! CDNIM Iconic is very nice. Smells amazing and fresh. Last a long time on skin and days on clothes. A very nice clone. CDNIM Iconic is one of those fragrances that has to be macerated for a few months before starts to perform. 👍

[@jhors7777]

Thanks Sarah for reviewing this one. Also for the info on Zanzibar, I am glad I held off.

[@GlamFinds]

Lol I was so excited about that one, too

[@onepassben]

Initially I thought this was a horrible fragrance but after about a month and introducing some air into the bottle, it's MUCH better. I find that with those Armaf bottles, they need air and time

[@GlamFinds]

Oh absolutely lol I'm telling you, I initially smelled Petrol ⛽️

[@simpa256]

Same. I so didnt get BdC at first and it had some weird smell. Peraps this is why it comes in 105 ml. I sprayer 10-20 sprays. Its has been sitting for a month and now... its is so close BdC. Good up close, good in the air. I soooo wanna try Zanzibar as all of yoi are hyping it so much and Id love to try it but sadly, only a blid buy will do. And its not even in EU yet. Perhaps get paradise garden? As I so want only one great (notgoodbut great) cocnut frag.

[@GlamFinds]

@@simpa256 Zanzibar is not good; I'm definitely not hyping it as I don't like it at all

[@Khaleesi_Of_Kittens]

Maceration...it's called maceration.

[@onepassben]

@@Khaleesi_Of_Kittens maceration is the popular but incorrect term. Oxidation is more like it

[@sportscasual7950]

Club de nuit sillage is my favourite spring/summer. Will add this to the rotation after your review. Which do you prefer?

[@GlamFinds]

My favorite warm weather CDN is Milestone honestly. This is definitely in the rotation though.

[@timvibes]

I have this and BDC EDP. Very similar! Though less quality than BDC, this is a banger! Lasts longer, brighter, and slight floral creaminess in the dry down.

[@GlamFinds]

I'm downsizing and I've been back and forth on keeping this, which is wayyy more than I can say about most of my other scents, so it must be a good one.

[@michaelbullock8011]

Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day

[@GlamFinds]

Thanks Michael!

[@michaelbullock8011]

You welcome keep up the good work GOD BLESS 🙏

[@sameold5050]

Excellent information. I like the Bleu de Chanel line so I'm going to buy this. Thanks Sarah! 👌

[@GlamFinds]

Thanks for watching!

[@DannyBellTheAuthor]

I bought this one when it very first released, I was part of the pre-orders. And to be honest, I didn't care for it, but it's been sitting in a box forever and I've probably only sprayed it about four or five times. That said, I'm going to give it a wear today and I'll report back and see if it's changed.

[@GlamFinds]

All Armafs change- I'll be waiting to hear

[@DannyBellTheAuthor]

@@GlamFinds yeah, sorry, my disappointment continues. It's just not enjoyable for me at all. Even amongst blue fragrances, I probably own at least a dozen I'd rather reach for first. The best thing about it is the bottle.

[@daubing.ms.mea.]

thx for this one. cause my 16 Y/O SON....🙃🤪🤪loved the sample he got. this will come in clutch for him

[@GlamFinds]

It's honestly better than I expected lol

[@russellborrego1689]

Gotta admit, despite all the early hype this got? Theres very few reviewers that I feel that can be trusted on the super-hyped clones like this. Thanks Sarah, your review makes it worth adding to the wish list. 👍👍

[@GlamFinds]

Wait until I review the ultra hyped Lattafa Asad Zanzibar...

[@erikschultz7225]

​really regret blind buying that one, I really don't like it

[@sirlosealot8629]

Thanks for helping me decide which bdc clone to get. I watched your amber oud blue review as well.

[@GlamFinds]

Hope it helps!

[@WMW-82]

I just got this one recently, I was very reluctant spending £70 on an armaf fragrance at first but then I was able to get a bottle for £30 so snapped it up. I'm so glad I did because it is a great fragrance right from the opening, there is no alcohol blast or any off putting opening its just a solid citrus freshy with great proformance. If your second guessing weather to buy it, i would recommend to just go for it and you won't be disappointed! Great review as always thank you for sharing with us ✌🏽🌹

[@GlamFinds]

Thank you!

[@ryany3549]

You described this perfectly!!! And I agree with your opinions about Zanzibar

[@John_D67]

Will check it out. Would love to see them put out a dupe of Profondo Lights. Picked up a bottle recently, but it was not cheap, I like alternatives. ❤️😘

[@GlamFinds]

Lol maybe AdG will redo it in this new lineup

[@RUDAZE]

I just got that new Assad I'm not sure how I feel about that Asad either.. I'm going to let it sit for a few weeks and get back to it

[@GlamFinds]

I can't keep smelling it... it's nauseating

[@RUDAZE]

@@GlamFinds it does have like a puke 🤢 note.. 😂

[@aashishb25]

Thank you Sarah for this one. Just one question, which BDC (EDT, EDP or Parfum) its a clone of? Thanks again.

[@GlamFinds]

No problem- I talk about which one it is in the video.

[@greggraham9785]

Sarah, how are you? I'm digging the video and review. Armaf Fragrances bottles some are horrible 😂. I have Armaf Fragrances CDNIM ICONIC AND I DIG IT. THANK YOU AND STAY SAFE SWEETIE.

[@GlamFinds]

Thanks Greg!

[@misterbeane]

Sup, Sarah! After having BdC EDT, EDP, Parfum and Armaf Iconic, I'd say Iconic falls in the range of the EDT and EDP. I'd say it's more of an "inspired by" take on BdC versus a straight-up clone, as I feel that it's not really clearly cloning any of the concentrations. To the people that say it smells "off" or "cheap", they probably got a fresher batch, and they need to simply let it sit and macerate for a few months. My bottle smelled like ass when I first got it, but I came back to it 3 months later and it was much, much better. Super great value for the money, and it performs FAR better than any of the OG's, especially the Parfum. Personally, I love BdC Parfum but the performance is garbage, especially for the price point. Just my 2 cents, though. Cheers!

[@GlamFinds]

Lol I have to agree with you on that blend. Bright and rich all at once, but trash for the first handful of sprays.

[@007MrMISHI]

Hi, Sarah. Where ya been ? Just a quick note you say hey. Good review and tips. Thank you. Sampled the OG @ Ulta and was disappointed with performance (??!!). Prices are still going up up up ,and I'm spoiled with free shipping ! I'll keep my eyes peeled for the best deal. Recently purchased Armaf CDN Untold - a good clone of BR540. Oh, and btw, PdM Kalan is a more masculine take on BR640, (but at a completely different price point @). Armaf is really coming up with some bangers. I have Untold, CDNIM, Milestone. Sillage. All good. Good tip about spraying off the first 20 sprays. In general, I feel M.E clones are much better in the air than directly off skin. But that's okay, especially if it allows me to "get close" to the OG at an affordable price. Ciao ! Paul

[@GlamFinds]

Armaf is becoming my favorite ME house again

[@Teamshmo]

I have the Al haramain blue fragrance which I don't really like. It isn't bad, but smells so cheap. I got it for a crazy good deal, so I can't complain tho. I also have so many clue scents I don't really bother with new ones. Even if it is amazing when you have 10 others that are basically the same it doesn't make sense for me to get more lol

[@GlamFinds]

I actually agree lol I only grabbed this for review

[@kingbruce8468]

Hey sarah, Have you tried ganymede or anything like it ? Do you know if that type of dna pulls any compliments. I was curious about trying stuff like mancera amberful, paris corner celestial, bois imperial. I plan on sampling them anyway. I Just wanna now if they receive good feedback from non fragheads.

[@GlamFinds]

@kingbruce8468 I have Bois Imperial and I adore it. I don't get a ton of positive feedback with it, but if you layer with PdM Greenley, it's more non-fraghead friendly imo

[@kingbruce8468]

@@GlamFinds hmm, ironically enough "mancera amberful" gets compared to greenley and ganymede... so you might be on to something. Surprised to hear that about bois imperial, a lot of people say it's a compliment monster lol.

[@GlamFinds]

@kingbruce8468 it's a monster in general, but typically, people like sweeter scents. That's why I add a touch of Greenley on it.

[@yigitadrbelli4880]

Dunno, it feels so syrupy. Went through a bottle and have a backup bottle. Too much pronounce on cheap sandalwood synthetics like ebanol, polisantol in the mid and drydown. Still fine for the price point

[@misterbeane]

I have to ask…how the hell did you “go through a bottle” and still say you “dunno” about it? lol

[@yigitadrbelli4880]

@@misterbeane reading comprehension is not your forte, is it? I explained there, it has some elements feels nice but on the other hand it has cheap sandalwood synthetics and some cheap melon note that feels syrupy. Dunno here means it is better than nothing but wouldn't bother to buy again, so meh

[@chrisb3902]

Great review Sarah!! I really enjoy this clone as well!

[@GlamFinds]

Thanks Chris!

[@gerardoespinosa1288]

Zanzibar is not good I got my bottle and completely over hyped

[@GlamFinds]

I might actually do a video bc of that

[@Alritealritealrite]

​@@GlamFindsI think that would be a good idea. I mean, I'm sure some people like it. But that was definitely hyped way up.

Is it a strong/agressive scent or smooth?

Smell like Blue de chanel but doesn't project at all it stays close to skin all the channels hype up clones but the real brand names are better.

[@GlamFinds]

Nobody said the clone was better, just that it gets the job done at a fraction of the price

[@ivantrudeau8974]

[@ivantrudeau8974]

@@GlamFinds Is ICONIC a blind buy? I do like BDC Parfun.

[@GlamFinds]

@@ivantrudeau8974 do you already own BdC? If so, it's redundant. All honesty, having a bunch of blue fragrances in general is redundant.

[@ivantrudeau8974]

@GlamFinds No, it's just a sample. I have YSL Y Le Parfum & YSL Y Intense. I guess that's enough in the Blue department. I like Armani Code Parfum, but it gives me headaches.🥲
