I own DOLCE AND GABBANA Garden and LATTAFA Musamam White Intense and find them to be very different from one another. Garden is a very sweet tropical floral-coconut type... and Musamam reminds me more of JULIETTE HAS A GUN Sunny Side Up but with added smooth-citruses in the top. I would also say that JHAG also has even more creamy coconut facet... Musamam is lovely but doesn't read that tropical to me. I get creamy Coconut+Sandalwood with some smooth-citrus in the top. Great for everyday type. Relaxing woody feel with some fruits (Coconut + Citrus). Not a dupe for anything I've smelled.
@jmercadobeauty5 ай бұрын
Yup. MWI is not a dupe at all. I get more tropical floral style+ creamy sandalwood and not really get citrus. SSU is mainly sandalwood to me. Agree that it’s perfect for everyday though..

I also don’t smell Dolce , but neither Sunny side up 😂. On my skin l get creamy coconut and sandalwood ( no citrus at all), but l love it 😍… l get the vibe of Gris Charnel BDK . Still the fragrance is amazing, bottle included. It looks a high end perfume in my opinion!

Hi Joanna! Totally agree; Teriaq and La Belle are not the same. I think Teriaq is a tad less sweet actually - it’s not syrupy like LaBelle and as you said no pear. And it just keeps getting better IMO. Do you find the black pepper sticks around in the base of Leen? That note intrigues me and you don’t normally see it in the dry down 🤷🏼♀️. I did buy Flur Oud and have worn it once. Yes it really does last forever and I get a lot of mandarin that really sticks around. I agree it’s sparkling ✨✨✨ for sure, but somehow I don’t get a ton of rose. No Oud. It’s a winner. Feels classy to me. I also have Musamam White and it’s beautiful. To me, smells a lot like Santal Complet, but performs better. Thank you for sharing!

I kept seeing Jasmine Wisp being compared to Erba Pura and I really dislike that one. But you've given me hope - I think I will finally give Jasmine Wisp a chance. I would love a video comparing allll of the Middle Eastern fragrances that get compared to Erba Pura and Kirke. Since there's so many of them. I actually own BHARARA King and I love it! It is in the same family as EP but imo done so much better! I had the Lattafa Abiyedh White but wasn't loving as much as BHARARA King. It's a BEAST though so i have to be in the mood to wear it. EDIT TO ADD: that I think BHARARA King smells higher quality than Erba Pura does which is crazy to say. Has anyone else tried it??

I hope you are feeling better, Joanna! Jasmine Wisp was the fragrance that really got me into Middle Eastern fragrances. I adore it. So lovely. I own Leen...it is very addictive. It smells niche and I love the way they formulated the mango. Unique. Musamam White Intense! So lovely, slightly tropical. And it smells like nothing else in my collection. Another Middle Eastern favorite of mine is Afnan's Mystique Bouquet which is inspired by PdM's Valaya. Stunning! And I am not really a floral person, but this currently has me in a grip.

I have Teriaq, Musamam White Intense, and Flor Oud, and I am interested in trying Jasmine Wisp and Leen, as your descriptions sound amazing. I also recently picked up Zafiro Crafted Oud based on your recommendation, and I am enjoying it. I am not usually a person who enjoys oud, but I do think it is smooth enough in this fragrance that I can enjoy it. It is a bit masculine leaning, so I might consider layering it with some more feminine fragrances, since I really enjoy a woody kind of base to make my perfumes a bit more complex. I always really enjoy your Middle Eastern recommendations, so thank you for continuing to share this content with us!❤❤

But I am not into those types of scents. I was hoping to get more of the fruity-floral but sadly hardly any of the fruits shine through on my skin. And the woody oud does come though (I like oud!
