HONEST OPINION on VIRAL and HYPED PERFUMES

[@morethanyourbasics]

Thank you for the updates. Shaghaf oud vanilla toffee is on my to try/curious list. I’m happy that the releases are slowing down its given me some time to reflect on my likes and purchases

[@tammyroxanne.]

I’ve been so interested in the new line from Une Nuit Nomade! (Especially Jardins de Misfah since I love it and own a 25ml!) ❤ I hope to check them out soon 🥰 It’s always lovely to see you! I bet the twins are getting so excited for Christmas!! 🎄Wishing you a wonderful holiday!! ❤❤

[@Mel_leit]

I haven’t smelled Blanche Bete but I’m obsessed with Her Confession, already bought a backup. I am waiting for my bottle of Lactea Divina to arrive. Thanks for your review, I’m so excited to try it!❤

[@christinavanmeter5034]

I love seeing your videos pop up!

[@corinajebelean9167]

omg, I love love Vanilla Toffee❤ so much that I bought another bottle 😊and on my skin, without exaggerating, it's beast mode, I swear I can still feel it after about 10 hours on my skin❤❤❤😘 . Great video, Joanna 🎉 and Merry Christmas 🎉

[@bellantwain21]

Nice review and choice's love the video Joanne stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way

[@raibarodi3603]

❤ love your input always. My go to nose critic!

[@yuanaecho3707]

Thank you for your reviews! I trust your opinion and you saved me a lot of coins lol. Have you tried Lattafa Noble Blush yet?

[@donniedarko6666]

Hi Joanna. I just received my order from Dubaï Collection half hour ago and tested Lactea Divina straight away. And it's love at first snif ❤. I can't stop myself sniffing my arm and I don't even try the rest of my order, I save it for later. I'm sooooo happy this one works for me, it was total blind buy without ever trying Blanche Bête or Her Confession before. Thanks for your excellent review, as always. ❤❤

[@jmercadobeauty]

Hi there! I’m glad to hear you are loving Lactea Divina.I understand people loving it. It has good quality and performance in my opinion. Worth buying if you love the sample. Enjoy the rest of your samples from Dubai collection 😊

[@peaceofmind7777777]

As a guy, thank you for telling us which way you think the fragrances leans toward.

[@jmercadobeauty]

I’m glad it helped you somehow 😊

[@geminierica4077]

I also love the new kayali!! I thought it would have been over hyped.. but it's one of my favs along with silk santal and sparkling lychee. The strawberry is similar to the flavor added to ice cream rather than actual strawberries but it's delicious

[@sharfalor4244]

Vanilla Toffee is probably my favourite ME release of the year! I love wearing it over Lush Sticky Dates body cream.

[@AmiAbroad]

@@sharfalor4244 ohhh, I'll bet that's good.

[@jmercadobeauty]

I was thinking the same! They’re quite similar. I have sticky dates lotion on the way 📦

[@AmiAbroad]

Hi Joanna! I was curious about hearing your views on Fursan White, but I already own Blooming Bliss from Afnan which is also a dupe of Vanilla Powder. Yes, it is obnoxious in the beginning. 😂Any word if there are differences between the two? Blanche Bête = baby vomit? Ouch.... 😂 Here is where we part ways..I adore this fragrance. I sampled the Taskeen dupe against my Blanche Bête and I think the dupe might even be stronger, a bit rougher, but a very good dupe. In spite of that tacky bottle, I purchased Banana Bliss. It is sooooo good. Like a banana cake.I love me a banana note ala Kayali's Maui in a Bottle. I am going to try combining them. 🤔 Jardins De Misfah Extrait sounds very intriguing. And lucky you, going to THE Middle Eastern perfume capital, Dubai. I envy you! 😊

[@acapellaz1]

Interesting. I got zimaya infrad Luxe which is also like blooming bliss. Apparently zimaya is owned by afnan. It may somewhat be a case of Angham vs Athena. I love infrad though. Yummy caramel and coconut. I was told it was stronger than blooming bliss and cheaper for me. I got banana bliss and tiramisu speculoos but I’m not fond of them for some reason. I expected to love banana bliss but I’m getting overripe banana almost rotten and it stays throughout on my skin. I got them 3 days ago so let’s see how it performs.

[@petermolina1317]

Because they used a very ripe banana scent it gives a similar vibe like spoiled banana. Maceration does the trick, hide it after 15 sprays for 1 or 2 months then use it again. It should be smoother. ​@acapellaz1

[@Shamiterrific]

Hi, have you tried lattafa angham? I've watched a few of your videos now and it seems you like vanilla and enjoyed burberry goddess last year. I'm curious to hear your thought on angham.

[@petyachakarova]

Now i have to try the Kayali and i did t want to 😂 Thank you for your video and honest reviews!!

[@petrapetruta]

Very honest review.Thank you!

[@jmercadobeauty]

Glad it was helpful!✨

[@jusblack_thabi]

I can understand why many won’t like Vanilla Toffee, it came on the heels of Oud Tonka, the name doesn’t make a good case either. People expected a sticky gourmand. I quite enjoy it and find it to have a level of sophistication lacking in most bakery gourmands. I spray on clothes and I get two days of performance with a moderate Sillage and projection at the moment. Lactea Divina I am not sure. To me it smells like African pride leave in conditioner. I’ll keep trying though maybe I’ll get the lactonic quality some get from it. I want that for myself I really liked Blanche Bete, just didn’t think it to be worth the asking price 😂 Fursan white is my current obsession but I can also see why someone else wouldn’t like it. That coconut also has somewhat of a cosmetic feel to it Thank you for the video

[@kristinmary4025]

Vanilla toffee last on my clothes for days, I’ll spray a sweatshirt and the next day smells even better

[@tammyroxanne.]

I just rated 21 Middle Eastern fragrances, and for Shaghaf Vanilla Toffee, I rated it a 6 out of 10 ..it just smelled like the Halloween molasses “candy kisses” to me. Which does remind me of the brown sugar vibe you mentioned!! Too sweet for me to really enjoy.

[@adeleeagleton3283]

Hi im desperately waiting for her confessions or lactea divina but still cant get it in the uk. Ive received shagaff vanilla toffee and its one of my best buys i find it to be strong and long lasting.love the strong toffee and coffee notes .even wanting a back up bottle.and has certainly got me interested in the others in the line . Ive got rhe original shagaff and love that one too so much so that I bought lancome oud bouquet.

[@jmercadobeauty]

I’m glad that Vanilla Toffee worked out for you. It doesn’t lasts on me and a bit shocked about it. Shaghaf Oud made me fall in love with Middle Eastern perfumes 🥰

[@Asdfjkl-j2b]

Second time watching this same video to help me decide if I should buy Lactea Divina. Hesitant to get it because I’m not sure if it will suit Philippine weather. I guess it is best to get a decant first. Then, I checked Huda official store for Kayali. Sadly, the potchi smelling one is not available. I keep on checking my trusted ME frag shops for banana bliss. I am sure I don’t have banana cue/turon scent in my collection therefore I should get one. 😁

[@kiciamaja2411]

On my skin Vanilla Toffee is a beast mode, it lasts for several hours, is variable and truly original because it is not a clone. Fragrance Guy from YT and I really value his opinion, he rated it the highest among Arabic fragrances. I think he was right.

[@tammyroxanne.]

Hi my friend!! I’ve been wondering about Lactea Divina because I had the same experience with Bianco Latte, where it went very sour on my skin chemistry- And I reviewed a sample of Her Confession and it was identical in my opinion so I didn’t love it. 😆 But those who love BB would probably love it! 😊

[@perfeptions_ENG]

I can’t do bouje marshmallow 😢 it gives me headache 😮 like sharp in my head … tested by Sephora a couple of days ago

[@allisonbotts8532]

Thanks Joanna! Have you tried ME fragrance Bois De Vanille from Le Bois? It is now available in Dubai & UK.

[@sharfalor4244]

Can I ask where you have seen Bois de Vanille in the UK? I've wanted that for so long. The only place that had it months ago never restocked it.

[@allisonbotts8532]

If you know, you know 🤣🇵🇭🙌🏻

[@Roxicology]

I like the Banana one, I have to play with it more. I agree that the banana goes bye bye quickly.

[@jmercadobeauty]

Yes! I wish it will change as it macerates… Let’s see 🤔

[@petermolina1317]

​@@jmercadobeautyit changes into powdery banana like the chewy banana candies that you unroll. But you need a strong sense of smell.

[@TheIntrovertedNatural]

I have shaghaf Oud vanilla toffee. It's just not working for me. My toffee smells burnt 😂

[@jmercadobeauty]

Exactly too burnt I think 🫣

[@milenasugrova4949]

Kayali yum marshmallo is my top strawberry perfume too. Love it.

[@jmercadobeauty]

It’s adorable 🍓☁️

[@QueenBee-xd1xk]

I tried kayali in the mall. It smelled great but the scent was totally gone when I left the mall about a half hour later.

[@jmercadobeauty]

Oh 🤔 It lasts decent on me..

[@scentedbeauty]

I loved this video!! I really am enjoying tiramisu speculoos but I cannot get down with banana bliss. I like the way it smells but I don’t like it as a perfume at all. Idk why 😢

[@jmercadobeauty]

I understand if some people won’t like it. It has a very synthetic/plastic dry down.. I wish the banana lasted longer on me 😕

[@23anarrie]

I Looove banana cue!

[@Roxicology]

I love using it now! I had to wait 24hrs

[@jmercadobeauty]

🤞

[@gracielarazouk7464]

My bottle of Vanilla Toffee is strong, like it shouldn’t be any differences between bottles specially if it is a new release . It is not as strong as the Tonka one but it is strong enough I would say .

[@kaynee4876]

Roll call for peeps watching these videos on 2x speed ☝🏻 Nevertheless very informative video.

Joanna I just completely broke my brand-new full bottle of Fursan White 😩😩😩 about 15 mins ago. It’s all over the place. I am so sad, I loved it. Now appears to be sold out too 😭🤬

[@kaynee4876]

Oh my goodness that’s so unfortunate 🥲 I hope you have another cools perfumes for upcoming festival season.

[@jmercadobeauty]

Omg Jill! 😳 I can feel the frustration. Did you manage to save a bit of juice atleast?!

[@jillshorten3457]

@ nope and my house stinks. I may not re-buy anytime soon, b/c I’m getting Fursan White 24/7!! 😳

[@jmercadobeauty]

@ 🤣 sorry it made me laugh. Do you still love it though?

[@jillshorten3457]

@ ask me again in a week. If this does not dissipate I may hold off buying a bottle indefinitely. I am smelling it constantly. For those interested in buying: there is a fair amount of essential oil in this baby, as evidenced on my tile floors that I’ve tried to clean 3-4 times now. It has excellent longevity! 😳😶‍🌫️

Oh no 😣

[@Nolatammy6644]

I get the same screeching throughout the fragrance. I've had it over 2 months now. It hasn't gotten any better. Not creamy at all, I fell for the Hype. I'm very disappointed in Khadlaj Fursan🤬

I don’t get creaminess as well and I find it dry coconut. I prefer a creamy one… 🥲
