I need to try that white one😂 everything you don’t like about it, sounds wonderful to me. You cracked me up.

[@SiminShaikh]

Hahahaa! Oh no! I have failed as an influencer 😂 In all honesty, I am slowly learning to like it

[@melodiechartier5173]

it is wonderful, i was watching curly scent review it and she loved it (gave it a 10/10) that prompt me to get it, and it did not disappoint. Smell is so personal from one person to another. I must say, it is not a blind buy, it could be polarized.

[@jannagrosse8057]

I love coconut, lactonic, I love musk and powder - and Surprise! - I love this scent 😂 It has to macerate though, at least a month, to loose the "chemical" note.

[@MarceloSiqueiraLima_CdC]

You probably have some milk-related trauma. Perhaps during the period when you were a baby. White Qaed is basically a delicious fresh coconut sweet with vanilla and a little milk.

[@SiminShaikh]

OMG! How did you know?! I am lactose intolerant but as a child my caretakers would force feed me with milk. I would always throw up. Dates with milk, Turmeric with milk and the worst of them all was raw egg with milk. Ew! Just the thought of it 😂😂😂

[@o751106]

Yes. It's a beautiful fragrance.

[@YOLONOW5280]

Unlimited is absolutely STUNNING 😍. Best summer fragrance hands down!

[@GoldenGoat888]

I love the Unlimited, I layer it with Olympea for a very fun summer scent

[@SiminShaikh]

Lemme try this layering combo lol 😂 I just need that milk powder dry down to not exist

[@77msmargo]

I hate unlimited!! 😩😩😩I wanted to curse every influencer that said it was like piña colada in a bottle, sweet, tropical and can be compared to Alien Goddess… all I got is musk and PEPPER. I’m currently letting it macerate before I throw it out of a moving car

[@SiminShaikh]

I knowwww me tooooo! Musk mood and U limited were two perfumes, I mean yuck! 🤢 so sorry you had to go through that experience

[@lucia3]

This is Her is in my top 5 for life. Good to know that it might be so offputting for some 🤣 The lactonic accord doesn't smell like milk on me. It gives a fragrance soft, smooth, and creamy character. I laughed so hard at your reactions 😂 You actually made me curious about the Unlimited one. I love the smell of Raffaello 😂

[@SiminShaikh]

Hahaha oh no! I think this was my most unpopular opinion hehe 😂 I just dont like the dry down. You should get the unlimited. It sounds like you would love it!

[@nadiasmith1601]

Right!!!! 🤦🏽‍♀️😂🤦🏽‍♀️ Sometimes I watch her cuz I’m learning that I have the opposite taste in fragrances than her! 😂 If she hates it, then most likely I’ll love it!!!! 🤪 lol I love laconic fragrances like Killian Kissing, Blanche Bete, etc so I know I’ll like the unlimited edition one. 🥰

[@mslizzy03]

😂 I love her, and i liked this perfume too so far from the sample

[@moviehaven8906]

Absolutely the kind of perfume reviewer I need, she has just let me know that I should not blind buy the unlimited, I like her outright honesty.

[@SiminShaikh]

Thank you so much for your support hun ❤ I would never want to deceive my friends here on YT ❤❤❤ Much love to you ❤

[@lottierose967]

Your video persuaded me to track down some samples rather than blind buy. And I am so glad I did! Seeing the notes + hearing the hype I was sure Unlimited would be for me, but I had exactly the same reaction as you - it made me gag. I am going to let it sit for a bit, just in case but all I can smell is bug spray.

[@giovamargot1632]

Quad al fursan black is good? It's long lasting?

[@jove1155]

Sim I LOVE QAF UNLIMITED!!! And Rafaello too! Yum!

[@SiminShaikh]

Hahahaa I still have it with me, I will try it again in winter and then I will hope for the best ❤❤❤

[@20pearlsNcurls]

Is the Unlimited still a NO? Just wondering if the scent got better after macerating? Thanks!

[@MrJohnMoIII]

OMG.. Honest and gorgeous....rare gem indeed. Now i must see more reviews. I wish she reviewed Men's fragrances, Would love to hear what she likes and dislikes

[@IndigooceanOrg]

LOL, that was so funny. I actually love that unlimited one on me, despite my not really like powdery or musk. I would characterize it as a spicy, creamy dessert with tart fruit to cleanse the palette. The black one I've not tried and probably won't since I don't normally like unisex fragrances.

[@lisarobles1148]

Thank you!! So much for your review on these fragrances. I find overly musky perfumes horrible for me.

[@SiminShaikh]

Always my hun ❤❤❤ I absolutely agree. It throws off the entire perfume. There should be an official limit on using this ingredient 😂😂😂

[@tanyadimartino1266]

Omg I just watched this and soo thankful I never ordered the white one. I also hate all of those notes you described. I literally laughed out loud when you said “who wants to smell like milk”? Seriously it’s so gross! Thank you for your honesty and so far you are the closest to my taste out of all the reviewers I have watched. So happy you review these for everyone even when you do not like them!

[@SantaMaria95]

I bought both I first bought the white one and secondly I bought the black one I do completely agree with you because I now took the black one with me on a trip and even though I overly sprayed before I leave the house, I don’t really notice it so much after 30 to 1 hour and I definitely feel like this would be like I had on certain perfume that I would probably like to mix with other perfumes underneath or on top it does need more projecting I wish they would have a more heavy note that stands out that I could smell on me because now I don’t really feel like it smells a lot. I would have to sniff my clothes to get a small scent and I agree I think for the price and for the quantity, it will be a favourite probably for someone who just enjoys a nice fragrance and doesn’t care about their longevity, but for me who is now becoming more accustomed to more perfumes that really stick out on your skin for several hours I wouldn’t purchase this Again, maybe just for fun if I would see it on a discount Lataffa has another pineapple fragrance the royal blends the gold version in comparison to this one, I feel like the Royal blends has a longer projection and smell

[@SiminShaikh]

Heya Hun ❤ I could not have said it better. Even I am constantly on a lookout for perfumes that last longer and are of quality. When a brand launches perfumes one after the other, they have not let their perfumes mature, or more importantly the ingredient mature. This results in the top and middle note lasting only 1 or 2 hours and the you get the base note which you need to sniff hard to notice. I have Royal Blends Gold and I agree, its projection is insane.

[@simalivlog]

Ice Blue!!! I love it! ❤

[@SiminShaikh]

Thank you Baby! ❤

[@nickkatz2336]

I get the coconut for 1 quick second (even tho coconut is not even a note), but then it goes straight to harsh heavy headache inducing white gardenia. I love the smell of the white gardenias that bloom in my garden, they are devine heaven!! But this is pure white flower to me & want to get away from it as soon as possible. I love lactonic, I love coconut, I wish I could enjoy either of those with this buy for me they are not there, altho possibly 1 brief second of coconut (more like chemically suntan lotion)

[@nakiarobinson23]

Lol i just bought the unlimited one and it is so good. I love that sweet creamy note. 😂

[@SiminShaikh]

Hehehee the world is divided on this one. I really wanted to love this perfume. I am so happy you get to enjoy it ❤ A little jealous as well 😂😂😂

[@spiritcloud5883]

I have the white one and I love it so much thinking of getting the black one now

[@SiminShaikh]

I am so happy that you liked the Unlimited. Mine is macerating. I hope I like it next time around. The Black one is a polar opposite but most definitely a beautiful perfume. One of my favs for sure ❤️

[@Perfumista225]

Have you tried the Somow Al Rasasi collection by Rasasi?

[@SiminShaikh]

Heya! I have not. What are your thoughts on it. Next month I will skip on Lattafa and buy some other Arabian houses

[@sambill8910]

This was my exact reason for QAED AL FURSAN UNLIMITED.....how did anyone like tht is beyond me....waste of money :(

[@stylist62]

The black bottle, I think mine is a fake, it’s nice for men, reminds me of drakkar and few others men wore in the 80s

[@muhanhangbokmf.3144]

So pretty. 👍 💯💙 Infinite happiness and happy weekend. 😍

[@SiminShaikh]

Thank you my amazing friend. You are the best 😍😍😍

[@chanmia0714]

I love both of them. Try layering them together and see if you like it better.

[@SiminShaikh]

That is not a bad idea! Lol! Lemme try it out today 😅

[@busichanel4934]

@@SiminShaikhhow was the layering idea?

[@snjezanad430]

I have Unlimited. Fantastic on me, so beautiful❤❤

[@SiminShaikh]

I soooo wish I loved it ❤️❤️❤️ I really tried hard to. Unfortunately just like the Zadig & Voltaire perfume, I cant stand it :(

[@latoyaferguson3566]

Between your traction and the picture u put in my head and most of the comments heck now I’m curious lol

[@SiminShaikh]

Hahahaha! If the lactonic smell does not bother you, you must try it. Because the people who like it, like it a looooot! Unfortunately here in the UAE, we cannot return perfumes :(

[@carolaortega3349]

😂 I got mine yesterday. Very lactonic. I will put this Botle in a dark place until 5 month to see if get better. Ambergris is a ingredient that change with the time. I appreciate your honest review I am a fan of you for that 😀

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey my Hun ❤ Right?! There is Lactonic and then there is LACTONIC lol. I hope your gets better with time so you can love and utilize it. Mine unfortunately did not make the cut ❤

[@jenniferburton1395]

I have the unlimited and I’m confused if I like it or hate it lol currently trying to find something to layer it with so I don’t totally waste the bottle. Open for suggestions please, anyone???

[@SiminShaikh]

For me the drydown is the worst! I can bear the opening but that Milk Powder drydown throws me off. I think I will try and layer it with Fruits. I just hope I dont start smelling like fruit yoghurt 😂

[@ChevyChev]

Leave it to macerate and check it in a couple months. I did this with Oud Mood, (My first impression thought was Incense Shop🤣) needless to say, I didn't like it at first. I let it macerate and a couple months after, it developed the caramel, vanilla, rose and woody notes everyone was talking about. So give it time and see if you like it, if you still don't, then maybe donate it or give it to a friend.

[@jenniferburton1395]

@@SiminShaikh I mixed the Unlimited with Yara today. It’s not bad actually, at least I’ll get use out of the bottle now 😂

[@jove1155]

Either qaed al fursan for a pineapple coconut, with Suqraat for a lime coconut, or Awaan for an outstanding elegant combo. Enjoy!

[@kellyhinrichs7403]

👀..I have a sample coming of the Unlimited. Buuuuut...I also used to rock Miami Glow from Jlo back in the day so maybe I will like it.

[@SiminShaikh]

Heya babe! The are nothing alike. But if lactonic notes dont bother you, you will love Unlimited. Do let me know your opinion when you receive it please. Much love! ❤😊

[@kellyhinrichs7403]

@@SiminShaikh I usually like creamy notes and coconut. I will report back. 😁

[@kellyhinrichs7403]

​@@SiminShaikh nope. I don't like it. It smells oddly artificial and familiar but not in a good way. It doesn't repulse me but I did wash it off.

[@stylist62]

You are so funny😂😂😂I love it, the quaked Al fursen, I smell citrus, spice earthy sweet😂😂😂I don’t know, it was my first blind buy😂

[@ChevyChev]

😂😂 This is a perfect example of scent being objective. (Correction: Scent being subjective) For me, its the opposite, i love the Unlimited, i get a creamy coconut milk scent and i despise the regular Qaed Al Fursan. The black has so much Pineapple in it that comes off as Urine to me.😂😂

[@rachelbegmusic]

😂NOO ... I LOVE PINEAPPLES . I can't see a similarity between pineapple and urine ?

[@ChevyChev]

@@rachelbegmusic 🤣 I don't have anything against Pineapple scents/fragrances. One of my favorite pineapple fragrances is Amber Oud Gold by Al Haramain. In my opinion, there's Pineapple (eg.Pleasant, Sweet and Juicy. You can almost taste the fruit upon smelling it) and then there's PINEAPPLE (Potent, overpowering and pungent, so much so, that it smells like urine). It all boils down to preference and different body chemistry.

[@SiminShaikh]

Dang! I just read your comment and I am worried I will smell urine next time I smell a Pineapple fragrance 😂😂😂 But I super agree that perfume are subjective

[@ChevyChev]

@@SiminShaikh Thanks for the correction. I'm sorry in advance, if you do smell urine. (Especially with Qaed Al Fusan)🙈

I have to agree with you, Miami glow was a total disappointment. I looked at so many reviews and was excited to try it, but I can't stand the smell 😅

[@SiminShaikh]

That perfume lol. I also fell for the hype and was utterly disappointed! 😂😂😂

[@lotus_perfumes]

Some perfumes are of that type that make u feel like vomiting ( for me patchouli is that note that I hate the most e.g. My Burberry Black nd Awaan ) ) nd some r there who makes u happy nd give smile on face. ( E.g. Arabian Tonka, Lolitalanid, Sweet diamond etc.) I also ❤ to share my thoughts with u. I don't have any friends but I feel so attached to u nd feel like u r my friend. Love u dear ❤❤❤

[@SiminShaikh]

Heya Gorgeous! I agree with you. For me it is Lactonic and Musk. Eww! I am lactose intolerant and the smell of milk nauseates me 😅 I take your suggestions very seriously and wanna get my hand on Lolitaland (because it is getting discontinued) asap and Pink Pepper in the Black Friday Sale. I feel the same about you my babe! You Bday is one month away now hehe ❤❤❤ Love you more hun ❤❤❤

Those are the wrong notes for Qued Al Furman Unlimited.

[@goiguerra]

People should not review perfumes with a note they don’t like 😊

[@mslizzy03]

Why not? I like this perfume, and I loved this review. It was funny and I like hearing other opinions

[@mrs_diaz_loves_theraiders]

Fragrance reviewers should give their opinions of fragrances, whether they like the notes/fragrances or not. It's literally their job 😂

[@carolaortega3349]

Why? Do you sell perfumes? Is not convenient? 😁

[@malenahernandez9377]

And people like you should STFU and not watch channels they don’t like. Follow your advice.

[@Hannahxx1971]

The white one smells like fly spray aerosols from the 1980s. It DID remind me of summer, but only because that's when the flies were out in forc, so the spray would be hanging in the air. Absolutely awful.

[@SiminShaikh]

This perfume gives me PTSD lol. I was super excited to wear it and sprayed it the moment it arrived on myself. Needless to say, I nearly died lol 😂 I do understand your fly spray reference 😂😂🤗

[@sandybeachlane1528]

And here I am with a huge imaginary ? on my forehead wondering why the unlimited made you gag.😂 It's funny how our brains process scents so differently. This Is Her and Fields at Nightfall duping This is Her smell great and are back up bottles worthy for me. My family who aren't generous with compliments would always say they like the scent.

[@SiminShaikh]

Maybe mine needs to macerate but I have had it for a month and I dont see me liking it. The last time I smelled i the opening was pleasant but then it dried down to this milk powder smell and oh my gosh i gagged again

[@sandybeachlane1528]

@@SiminShaikh Maybe it’s just your olfactory nerves processing differently, which isn’t a bad thing. I would love not liking a lot of perfumes so I wouldn’t buy so many. 🤣 For us who love This is Her, it’s a love at first sniff thing. Erbu Pura and BR 540 and all their clones aren’t to my liking at all. Not a popular opinion but it is what it is. 😁
