NEW MIDDLE EASTERN CLONES: LATTAFA ART OF NATURE I / ARD AL ZAAFARAN LONDON OUD / Are they good?

[@SN-gw8om]

Your describing of the scent profile is great and accurate! Thank you! You are one of my favorite reviewers.❤

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

You are so welcome and thanks you for watching. Have a lovely Sunday. Xoxo

Have been curious about London Oud. Thank you so much for sharing this ❤

[@Yaa2024]

I was curious about the London Oud too. The new Paris Corner Khayal is also whispering in my ear. Am I the only one not getting any sweetness out of Art of Nature I. The tangy and oud are definitely there. It leans slightly more masculine but layering with a sweet red fruit vanilla scent makes it delicious. It is definitely not a blind buy safe scent.

@@Yaa2024 I heard Khayal and Cotton Abayad are inspired Silk Santal Kayali

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

You’re welcome 😊. Btw - Art of Nature is being offered here at the same price point as the other Lattafa Pride fragrances🤔. I have not seen Art of Nature 2 but I expect it will be the same. I have seen quite a few people complaining about the price point. I hope when Art of Nature II comes they do not increase the price. I will not pay €70 Euros for a clone reason why I do not buy much from Orientica. Have a lovely Sunday Sweets🥰🥰🥰

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

Ah…. Thanks for the layering tip. I will try this. I was thinking also of a woody scent to add a bit more depth until it fully macerates. It is definitely one I will be playing with for some time. It is a versatile fragrance and can be layered in many different ways😺

[@Yaa2024]

​@adwoalovesfragrances5324 I want to sample it so I glimpse why it is always out of stock. Overhyped or better than Leen?😂

[@foteiniarmstrong]

Love Oud perfumes ❤!not heard this brand thanks for sharing!

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

No. Looks like you had a nice vacation🥰

[@charlottemilam2733]

London Oud sounds intriguing, and i appreciate the comparison to the more expensive one. You took one for the team! Lol. Thank you. ❤

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

My pleasure! Have a lovely Sunday🤗💕💕💕

Hi Wendy and thanks for the Art of Nature review. That leather note in Oud Maracuja has prevented me from trying it or any of its clones. Leather isn’t a note I vibe with if it’s loud in a fragrance….. You look beautiful as always. Have a great week ahead and stay safe ❤

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

Hi Yopsia I did see a comment from you but it disappeared before I could answer. I did get Spectre Ghost and compared to Ani and it was the same scent. I did film the video and it should be posted next week I hope. I am behind🥹. I did see the leather note listed in Art of Nature 1 but I was not able to sense a leather note at this time. The fume has not macerated but I did not get much. I am also very sensitive to leather and a bit strange I could not really smell it. This is one to test first. French Avenue also has a clone Azure Oud which is suppose to be good. I really love this house as their inspirations are dead on🤓. Have a lovely rest of your Sunday. Mine is almost over lol. Take care girlie🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@SN-gw8om]

I’m waiting for nature 2 😅i was curious about london oud. Couldn’t find any infos. Thanks 🙏🏼 it sounds very interesting for me 😃

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

Hi hi😺. Same here. I had a hunch and followed it. Very interesting scent. Have a lovely Sunday 🙌🙌🙌

[@dutchmonique]

Hi Wendy, I love the colour of your lipstick. The bottle looks like a sigaret brand

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

Thank you Moniqie. You are so correct about the bottle. Camel Lights lol.😂. I never thought of that ahhahahah. Have a lovely Sunday💕💕💕

[@dutchmonique]

@@WendyWiseBeauty tomorrow I’m going on vacation to Thurkey with my friend, who knows what I might find there

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

Hi Monique. Enjoy the trip. I love 🇹🇷 especially for seafood. Nishane🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳.

[@jusblack_thabi]

I sniffed art of nature 1 out of the nozzle and thought it was lovely but for a man. Didn’t think it could be something I would enjoy but now I am curious and will sample it some more

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

Hi hi🥰. When the scent settles it gets warmer. It is not for everyone but I think I will love it more in warmer weather💕💕

[@sharfalor4244]

I definitely pick up the leather note in AON, but not as strong as Oud Maracuja. It layers well with fruity, vanilla, or BR540 type dna. Definitely more of a fall/spring scent for me.

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

Hi S - mine needs to rest a bit more but I am happy to forgo the leather note🤓. I will try to layer to see if I can wear now🥰

[@ayomideafolabi8419]

Hi Wendy, lovely description as always. Could you please help me in picking a good winter fragrance. I’m considering between Miraj/ameer al Oudh / khamrah qawah or liquid brun. Although I do appreciate a deep and rich scent . I tend to draw more to sweet/ feminine / rich vanillac profiles . Please feel free to recommend any other fragrance . Thank you ☺️

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

Hihi… nice to hear from you🥰. I do love Miraj as it is a deep and earthy Jasmin fragrance and perfect for fall winter. It terms of vanilla, Qawah would be perfect. It is a deep vanilla and the coffee note is pronounced so it is good for cooler weather. I love this much better than Khamrah🙌. I am also liking Gharam a lot and it is a beautiful vanilla which is rich. Qidwah from ARD Al Zaafaron is a nice rose vanilla. One of my favorites from the department store is Givenchy L’Interdit Intense, the black bottle. This is very deep and sexy. Hope that helps🫶🫶

[@jdaniels4898]

All of them are great, i would say Ameer Al Oud Intense is the least sweet and feminine. All of them are perfectly unisex of course, it's just Ameer smells more masculine than other 3. And yeah, Miraj and Liquid Brun are having considerably more spicy nuances than Khamrah Qahwa, which is delicious gourmand scent, with dates, vanilla, coffee, biscuit/pie notes. Great performance too.

Hello! I have Art of Nature I and II. I really only bought them for the bottles, but am enjoying them nonetheless. I think AON I is my favorite. The other seems to have a soapy dry down on my skin with the orange blossom being a tad too much. I'm hoping time will correct this. -Ronnie

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

Hi Ron🥰 thanks for letting me know as soapy dry down does not sound good. The bottle is wonderful and I was think of getting 2 also for the bottle. I really do not need a soapy Althair😀😀😀😀. I did get Zikra and this one is strong and pompöös🥳🥳🥳🥳. So rich and I love it😺😺😺😺. Thanks for giving the final shove. I wish you a fabulous Sunday and no rain🦋

[@Ronbug4444]

@@WendyWiseBeauty I've never smelled Althair, so on my skin that may be soapy as well. My nose is more sensitive than most people...and it could be my skin chemistry. I'm glad you liked Zikra as I've enjoyed it. I don't have a lot of redundant fragrances so I have nothing to compare it to, other than Intoxicate. -Ronnie

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

Hi Ronnie - Althair has a wood dry down with a bit of a pine cone accord on vanilla. No soap lol.. 😂

isnt ARD AL ZAAFARAN LONDON OUD a london widian dupe?

[@WendyWiseBeauty]

Hi. I have not tried Widian London Oud. As stated, it was similar to Fragrance du Boris London Oud which I compared in the video😺🥰
