MIDDLE EASTERN PERFUME HAUL - CARAMEL CASCADE, QISSAH DELICIOUS, SHIYAAKA GOLD AND MORE

[@The0212helen]

Cant wait for you to review Lattafas Eclaire and Bayn al Asrar!

[@ldavis1187]

Yes!!!! I will wait for this review before I buy which one. Definitely want Bianco latte regardless

[@itaouigiuliana6252]

Eclaire by lattafa is amazing very creamy and smooth

[@safroz2]

​@@itaouigiuliana6252is it a fluffy sweet or syrupy sweet? A lot of gourmands give me headaches but éclair sounds so nice

[@annelenington7368]

Same for me waiting on both!

[@The0212helen]

@@annelenington7368 are you in the uk? I’m checking everyday for those two and the qissa delicious. Love gourmands and the Middle Eastern companies are realising that a lot of people do and they’re doing then now. I’m gonna by spending so much!

[@kelleyshan]

You are right about the Caramel Cascade needing to sit for months and months. Mine smelled so weird at first and I hated the opening but now that opening is gone.

[@vypanchy]

Hey i received mine recently and it has a very unmistakable rubber-y smell, how long did you let yours sit?

[@kelleyshan]

Mine did too. I ordered it in March and has improved more and more over time. The rubbery smell is gone at this point. I’d give it at least a couple more months.

[@vypanchy]

@@kelleyshan thank you, i received mine 2 days ago, I'll let it sit till autumn spraying it out once a month or so, hopefully mine will change too 🤞

[@SiminShaikh]

Thanks for letting me know babe. It is such a fresh batch, there is no way it is at its best yet. I cant wait for it to macerate ❤❤❤

[@GoldenGoat888]

Oh no! I got Caramel Cascade and sprayed only 1 spray in the air. Mine has a mushroom scent at the opening. 3 hours later my son walked in asking what is that delicious smell. I’m also letting it macerate for 3-4 months. I’m sure it’ll be beautiful by September.

[@debbietaylor9241]

Me too - raw button mushrooms! Drizzled with caramel.

[@DDH64812]

@GoldenGoat888 I have to say after about 2-3, mine is well, better :/

[@twilightfanpire88]

Spray enough of it and then let it macerate, it does get better with time but still not as good as Bianco Latte or Lattafa's Eclaire

[@skinsciencebymira]

Someone described Caramal Cascade as a caramel rubber balloon and OMG that perfectly describes what smells off to me. It has too much of that sour spicy note with the caramel and not enough of the creamy sweetness. Now I did try Lataffa Eclaire and it’s way better - like what Caramel Cascade was supposed to smell like.

[@empathme5176]

I really appreciate your explanation of Mukhalath. The description of it, the way you talked about different wedding ceremonies, is really informative and captivating

[@ParadiseBlue-ni8yr]

I purchased Taskeen Caramel Cascade but discovered I had to let it macerate for a month and I came back to it and it was yummy!

[@SiminShaikh]

I thought as much. I will let it sit for at least 3 months but I will do a monthly check on it ❤

[@chineyeokafor9082]

This is exactly why I subscribed!! You are so authentic, it’s refreshing!!!. I’d rate it a 5/10 for now, mine is still macerating as well

[@KellyJelly9976]

I'd definitely like a comparison on the Qissa Delicious with Nebras.

[@sbozalicious]

Yeah me too was looking forward to getting Qissa, but some have likened it to Nebras, I have Nebras and I am not crazy about it. So now I don't know if Qissa is worth a buy😏

[@aesinam]

​@@sbozaliciousit doesn't have the red berries and mint of Nebras so you might like it better.

[@paloma_flamenca_nyc]

Thank you for your review…I had the same experience with Cc and Bl…at first I was so disappointed by caramel cascade, it was gross and then skin scent and now with time it’s amazing but now it’s summer 😢. I started wearing it to sleep and now it’s so yummy I associate it with coziness…but I do love it I don’t want to finish it. It does open very alcoholy…but guess what it gets so much better with time…then I got Bianco Latte and love it too just kept them both and wear cc more 😅

[@mariamel-fahoum4689]

When you make a comment or a description and laugh at yourself...I swear it's everything...I love your descriptions..they're so you 🤣🤣🤣 keep doing them they're definitely not pathetic at all

[@chimbukachibangulula5635]

I love the red on you girl 😊

[@xtinejoy]

I'm curious about Qissah Delicious. Please update us after maceration because my skin absorbs perfume soooo fast so I need longer-lasting perfumes. The flower decoration on Taiba though, so gorgeous! It looks like a brooch. 😍

[@SiminShaikh]

For sure my hun. I do a quarterly Maceration update, I will include all these new ones from Paris Corner in that update. Taiba does look like a brooch, a vintage one (I mean all brooches are kinda now vintage lol). So beautiful ❤❤❤

[@basimkhan9240]

Caramel cascade is heavy in licorice but smells nice in the end and in the air. And this projects like a beast on me .stays till the next day. And gets me compliments.

[@JustSayLette_16]

Mukhalath MA'A Ward Taiba is one I must have!!!❤❤❤

[@SiminShaikh]

Absolutely! What a stunning creation. You just know that a lot of thought went into creating it ❤❤❤

[@armandoandmariavivancos6393]

Simin you always look so gorgeous!!!! Im fascinated by the history the meanings and cultural information you gives us! I always wait in expectancy for your videos bc i know im going to learn and have a great time!!! Thank you!💐💝

[@tmonique11]

I don't have any projection issues with Qissa Delicious. Mine has been sitting for a few weeks and is quite loud. I do overspray but I went out maybe 4 hours after applying it and a girl outside the UPS store gave me a super nice compliment on it.

[@JustSayLette_16]

Shiyaaka sounds like another well crafted, well blended fragrance by Khadlaj Perfumes! ❤❤❤

[@SiminShaikh]

Someone just commented that it smells similar to Chanel Eau Tendre and rightfully so. It is a cousin for Eau Tendre if must say ❤❤❤ Beautiful scent ❤

[@JustSayLette_16]

@@SiminShaikh Thank you for that, I am adding it to my list of must haves! ❤️

[@ghadaab.7858]

I got Taskeen caramel cascade and I agree! The opening is disturbing! Smells somehow like tires or rubber, but the dry down is beautiful. I will let macerate for couple months. It's a good layering material too and will work well when combined with other scents.

[@DMSqueen1]

Sim red looks beautiful on you! Your review of caramel cascade was right on the money, I smell licorice too! Waiting for Qissa Delicious, I couldn’t resist the notes

[@SiminShaikh]

Thank you so much my hun ❤ It was the same with me. Qissah notes were just yummmm. You will like it if you don't set your expectations too high lol ❤❤❤ Itis nice but the projection and longevity is that of a mist

[@Lajolies2scents]

Let Yara sit for a few months and get back to it. It lasts 9 hours on my skin now. It’s not a beast but it leaves a nice scent bubble around you

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey Gorgeous ❤ Unfortunately I had it over a year and then I decluttered it with the rest of the Yaras. While they all were just nice, I did not see the value in them just coz I have so many other perfumes you know. They are happier in their new home I bet ❤❤❤

[@JustSayLette_16]

Hello Lovely! I would like to mention Taskeen Marina. Now I know you had the Taskeen Peach, and I definitely understand your thoughts on that, but Marina is different. It opens with a grapefruit note that is bright, along with a few other fruits like pear, peach, and orange. It also has Jasmine and bergamot. It's really refreshing and pretty for Summer. If you change your mind, please think about grabbing a sample. ❤

[@SiminShaikh]

Aww bless ❤ Thank you for letting me know. I will give Taskeen Marina a shot then. It does sound appealing for the horrendous summer we are currently stepping into in The UAE

[@ekramabdirahman3746]

I love caramel Taskeen and all I get Vanilla and caramel of course I didn’t expected 100 percent dupe

[@SiminShaikh]

I think mine needs to macerate. A lot! As of now that dusty rice smell is very off-putting. I will revisit it for sure after 3 months or so ❤

[@Lajolies2scents]

I love Maahir 😍 the sillage is insane. The rose + incense is sooo good… to me it’s perfectly unisex

[@SiminShaikh]

Right?! Maahir is truly beautiful. I feel I can wear it during winter here in the UAE. Sadly it never gets too cold. Its like Fall weather more or less. But still I make the best out of wearing all my winter perfumes during that time ❤❤❤

[@Lajolies2scents]

I got a notification that my Shiyaaka Gold just got delivered. I can’t wait to smell it after work 💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽

[@SiminShaikh]

OMG!!!! I am so excited for you. Plsssss let me know what you think. Another friend here in the comments mentioned it smells similar to Chanel Eau Tendre. While not a dupe I do agree with the similarity ❤❤❤

[@KellyJelly9976]

how does it smell?

[@shyruti]

How is it?

[@sandybeachlane1528]

First review I've found of the shiyaaka gold. It has the same kind of freshness of chanel chance eau tendre. I initially thought this a intended to be a dupe of that.

[@SiminShaikh]

Oh wait. I have Chanel Eau Tendre but the EDT. And you are so right, it does smell similar to that ❤

[@FragrantFindings]

The Paris Corner perfumes are pricier now. I'm in the US, they are usually about $38 to $40+. At least when ordered from reliable sources.

[@SiminShaikh]

Yea that is the sad part. I know the Paris Corner quality is not the best but the price was justifying it somewhat. But if it is above 35USD then whats the point right? ❤

[@aesinam]

I have had Maahir for almost a year now and i love smelling it even though I don't wear it often. I use it on my curtains

[@barryryan1948]

Wow, another video , you made my day babe. I hope you are not rushing too fast back into work, my angel. I am not suggesting I know best, but just gently suggesting that you ease back into ' normal hectic ' life. Ha, I never learned to do that. I am much better at giving some advise or suggestions than taking it 😅😂. Thank you for this wonderful video. I am staying strong so far in my resolve not to be tempted but there are 2 perfumes I feel I would love to wear. But here it is getting so cold and wintery suddenly. Yesterday I spent more than an hour in the dentist chair, all went well but Fibromyalgia hates lying in that chair for that long and is paying me back with vengeance today. Your beautiful face and words were just what I needed on this cold morning so thank you so much. I don't like the heat but also hate being cold as this triggers bad memories for me. Today is a special day for us as we adopted our sweet Pushkin 10 years ago today. We celebrate Pushkin Day every year. He has already been playing, smooching and both had some treats and more to follow. Wishing you a lovely day. Please give Markus a smooch from me, and purrs from Pushkin and Sunti to Markus and from me. We now have 3 possums that visit us, Edwina, Henry and we still have to name the new fellow, who is so sweet as well. So much love to you, my darling sister, Tia ❤

[@SiminShaikh]

Hey my Hun ❤ Our anxiety brains will not let us rest lol. You know me so well coz I feel we are soul twinsies ❤❤❤ Oh nooooo.... I hate visiting the dentist as well. It is so stressful. I can imagine why the Fibro is flaring up. We have so many triggers which are all relation to getting super stressed. You would imagine the body having a helpful response, but noooooo... Fibro to the front lol. Im so sorry you are going through this period and really hope you recover soon my beautiful hun ❤ Oh bless. I will message you on Insta about my week as well lol. The internet is so good at concealing the worst. Plssss give Pushkin a big hugsie from me. How precious it is to behold the love of animals. My Markus gives me so much peace ❤❤❤ Can you plssss send me the pictures of the possums on insta? Only if you can but please rest for now and recover. I hope this winter passes by fast and transforms bad memories into beautiful ones filled with love and magic ❤❤❤ So much love to you my darling friend ❤ Kissies & Cuddles to Pushkin and Sunti ❤❤❤ Love & Light, Sim

@@SiminShaikh I will send you the pictures my beautiful hun , I have one of oldest when he was just a baby and came with his Mum , so he just returned 3 nights ago. No new photos of him yet , only the baby pictures. I will send them tomorrow or tonight as I am in the middle of trying to create a video and brain is working at a different speed than my hands and even the computer seems out of tune 😅😂. Fibro is so unhelpful , just when you need a touch of care , Fibro says "Heck , no , how could you put me through this trouble of doing this or that, here's pay back for you 😁" and he sends the pains to your brain. I have the loveliest gentle caring dentist. I feel blessed having her. She is so passionate about making her patients feel safe and she has taken eons of being afraid at the dentist away. But I cannot lie comfortably on those chairs and even though I am ' relaxed' especially compared to years before ( I create music videos now in my head as I lie there which I why I am trying to actualise the one I made yesterday in my head) my arm starts to shake thanks to my damaged spine ( fall as a toddler and accident when I was 25 when I tried to run and chase our cats as a joke and fell on the weight bench and broke my collar bone and hurt my spine) and so a cycle of trouble starts. Did you know I am a well known stunt woman? Well, not really. 🤣I am known for my stunts though among my loved ones, sadly none of the stunts are ever done intentionally, 😂as I seem to fall over invisible things 🤣. I will smooch the babies and tell them that their auntie Sim sends her love. 😻😽 So much love and light to you my darling friend, Love and Light, Tia 💫❤💜❤

I was not impressed with the Taskeen line in general and I already own Bianco Latte. It's perfection..and an absolute lovely beast 😊. She lasts allll day. I've been looking at Qissah Delicious, but I can't yet find it in Europe. Would you say the chocolate/vanilla scent combination is similar to Nebras?

[@elsaibarra6092]

Thank you Simin! Bianco Latte and Caramel Cascade do not smell alike at all. I fell into the hype and now I have to get rid of caramel cascade and wasted my $29. I LOVE BIANCO LATTE! I would definitely when I run out! I’ve had caramel cascade for 2 months or so, I will give it one more month to see if something better happens.

[@SagaDatura]

Thank you for your reviews as always! I am wondering if that licorice note is from star anise in the caramel cascade. I have been looking for a gourmand with rice note, something reminiscent of Arroz con Leche (milky rice pudding). I will keep on the lookout for your maceration update.

[@SiminShaikh]

Ooooooh thats a good observation. I will try and see if I detect that but one thing I can confirm is that it does not smell like rice pudding. The opening is more like dusty uncooked rice :( Maceration will definitely help this one. I cant wait to revisit it after a month ❤❤❤

[@Marlena_Q]

Hi, when it comes to a scent similar to More Than Words Xerjoff, I only had their equivalent from Gulf Orchid. Unfortunately, I haven't smelled the original, but the ones I have had are rather duplicates of the scent and you can find a similar one in many brands.

Heyy The notes for Maahir on Fragnatica are not correct. These are the notes on their website: Top: Saffron, Rose Heart: Akigalawood,leather, Dry Amber Base: Oud Mood Accord, Vanilla, Musk I have this and it took more than a year to fully macerate and smooth out, there is something about it that feels special! Definitely agree with you, I find the way it smells interesting, but I wouldn’t wear it as a perfume!

[@gosiaweiss_mua]

Now, what's in your lips? Love that colour!

[@lizalauda1903]

Maahir was very challenging for me, as it first had a unpleasant animalistic note, which luckily disappeared after a few weeks. Indeed it is very Middle Eastern. I don't think that Fragrantica has the correct notes. According to the Lattafa website the notes are: Top: Saffron, Rose Heart: Akigalawood,leather, Dry Amber Base: Oud Mood Accord, Vanilla, Musk

[@SiminShaikh]

That! You know. The opening. I smell dusty white rice as opposed to the milky note you are getting. I think this is again a batch problem. Some folks are even getting rubber in the opening.

What is a Bakhoor? I have seen the products you can buy for Bakhoor on the Middle Eastern websites

[@kalsumakhatun5867]

Do you have a number 1 perfume ?

[@rupalitiwari446]

Loved ur video. Can u do a review of Bait Al Bakhoor Dahaab Saafi Eau de Parfum . Thank u❤

[@sderzek]

Hi, I love all about your videos and Thank you, amazing job😍 ! Have you ever heard about the perfume "Zeena", Khalis perfumes ? Inspired by T. Mugler's Angel Iced Star.. would love to hear your review about it. For me it's a gorgeous tropical summer fragrance. Greetings from Switzerland💗

[@876beauty]

I bought that perfume after it eas hyped up, i love the DNA but it is VERY synthetic, I don't wear it for this reason 😢

[@SiminShaikh]

Heya Hun ❤ Unfortunately we do not have Khalis brand in the UAE available easily. I have not tried any of them yet. I do however plan to try out some Zimayas

Qissa Delicious....was a disappontment..due to it is a very light scent...no depth ! Caramel Cascade is great IMHO....I let the bottle "sit" for 1 month !. Maahir was just so-so...nothing special.

[@SiminShaikh]

Qissah Delicious notes were so attractive and I just grabbed the bottle. It is very disappointing in terms of Sillage and Longevity. I do hope it macerates and gets better with age ❤ I think my batch of Caramel Cascade needs a bunch of time to sit in its own juices. I loved Maahir but as a room scent lol. I would love for my home to smell like that ❤

[@batbats89]

Has anyone found Mukhalath in Uk and knows how much it costs?

[@marthaperry6988]

Caramel Cascade smells like wet mushrooms in the opening to me. I find it absolutely revolting. I put mine away at least 6 weeks ago and am not going to touch it until fall. Hopefully it will be tolerable by then.

Love your channel.❤ By the way, you're Beautiful

[@kuga7423]

How's Qissah delicious compared to Nebras

[@SiminShaikh]

Not even a bit alike. The only thing similar is that they are gourmands. Qissah is a mild choco with orange cream. Nebras is a bold perfume with choco caramel and loads of aromatic notes ♥️

[@kuga7423]

@@SiminShaikh would you prefer Nebras over Qissah Delicious?

[@basssuper9]

Hi, The Maahir notes are wrong, even in the lattafa page.

[@basssuper9]

The original notes include, Rose, oud, leather.

Paris Corner as a whole has failed me in so many ways, most of their perfumes smell so harsh and artificial. Pear potion is my best from them, its nice but still so artificial after a while. I want to wash all of them

[@cynthiaprzybylinski4842]

Simmie, I went on a different web site and ordered the khadlaj. Very excited to get them. Thanks again.
