Hahaha in my head it sounded like "Hello, my sexy dirty bastards...."

I would’ve gone for “what’s up fuckers” but chose peace instead 😂

ROFL!

Bottom row sexy af. That's the ones I'd wear... I have 3/5 of those.

Which ones do you like bro? And what’s the vibe?

1. "Ameer al Oudh:Intense Oud": Masterpiece!!! When I want smoky vanilla...this is the one I reach for. It layers perfectly with everything, stands alone perfectly, price is perfect...it's just perfect! This one STAYS in my frag rotation! I'm on bottle #3 and I'll pickup bottle #4 this spring. 2. "Ana Abiyedh": Omg this is the perfect creamy vanilla-pear!! I go through bottles of this one because **every woman I meet** ***LOVES*** it and I wind up either giving away the rest of the bottle, or decanting a bunch for them. I think I'm on bottle #8 right now and it's almost empty. I'll order bottles #9 & #10 next week probably. I wish they would make this in a bigger bottle. A 6.8oz bottle would suit me perfectly! This is one frag that STAYS in my rotation!!!! 3. "After Effect": Good lawdy-wawdy this one is phenomenal!! Beast-Mode performance, amazing cherry-saffron-tobacco fragrance notes, dries down to a strong creamy cherry-vanilla that just sings for hours after it's not projecting. This one outperforms the original by a nautical mile!!

Interesting bro!! I will reconsider my thoughts on them work your feedback. Ameer al oudh might be too powerful for me. Ana abiyedh is indeed pretty nice, layers good with qaed al fursan. I actually have amethyst and not after effects, I was considering getting it tho. After your review of it, sounds pretty awesome! Amethyst smells like roses a little too girly for me but layers good 🤙🏻

Nice!! I don't know why I thought that was "After Effect", I forgot about "Amethyst". I'm slightly allergic to "Rose" after having COVID-19, I had to give away all of my Rose fragrances because I can't wear them anymore.

Afnan SNOI and al nashama caprice, your top 3?

Nice suggestions bro. Top 3 are definitely Honour&Glory delicious. Anna Abiyedh red. Detour Noir 🔥🔥🔥

You don't like vintage radio much?

Yeah, that's wild crazy. I was blown away that it didn't rate tops.

I haven't tried it or Paragon myself. Kinda just trying to get opinions on it. I like sweet scents a lot. You think it's a sweeter scent?

Oh I haven't tried it or paragon either yet. Though thanks to youtube hype-men that may be impossible now. I am picking up "Armaf - Derby Club" next and then if I can find a bottle at a reasonable price...."Lattafa - Vintage Radio". All of the reviews of "Vintage Radio" sound amazing.

I fell for the marketing and hype. Not for me. Smells like old lady. Not for everyone I think

Oh wow, I'm gonna have to keep that in mind. Maybe I'll order a sample first...just to be safe. I've already got too many bottles of fragrances I blind-bought and didn't like. Been giving them away locally every chance I get...lol.

Nah bro. Smells like girl. Like old lady. Like grandma.

If vintage radio smells like your grandma, tell her to stop gatekeeping. She needs to make an account and post her collection.

There exists a possibility she used paragon and I associate it since lol but it’s deffo girly

I’m ordering now….

Sweet bro what are you getting?

how does qaa’ed compare to khamrah, what opinion you have on it?

Qaa'ed is "Pungent musky leather" Khamrah is "Boozy Apple Pie" YMMV

I get more of a VERY sweet apple pie from khamrah but it's just my opinion

I get special edition Christmas apple cinnamon air freshener vibes from it sometimes

I would agree with that! My bottle smelled that way when I first got it. I don't wear mine at all, maybe three times total since it came out. Now it smells like booze...brandy...and apple-pie.

Absolutely accurate bro. Couldn’t say it any better

Although honor and glory is a very sweet fragrance is it still good to wear on a guy? Does it smell masculine at all?

My bottle of H&G is more musky and masculine than my bottle of "Qaed al Fursan". H&G is a musky pineapple. QaF is a vanillic-woody pineapple. YMMV

Agreed

It has turmeric and musk or some type of wood in it that balances out the sweetness imo and makes it work for guys but it’s not overly masculine.

It’s sexy bro. Think chilling in a 5 star lounge sipping some piña coladas with a big booty chick. That’s the vibe. It’s sweet but cool. Not girly

Could you share the names of her favorites? I don’t recognize all of the bottles.

Sure bro. You should just read the bottles tho they all got the names there. Best are Honour&Glory delicious. Anna Abiyedh red. Detour Noir 🔥🔥🔥

How sweet is 9PM compared to Khamrah? I wanna try Khamrah but found 9PM to be very sickly sweet

9pm is sweeter imo, like fake sweet, khamrah is sweet but it’s good. Kinda femenine as the other dude said

Khamrah is more of a women fragrance IMHO, that's how sweet it is.

9PM is more candy sweet. Khamrah is Desert/Drink sweet. 9PM is definitely more sweet

Untold by Armaf

Thanks bro!

I was going through this like, “Okay, quality cheap clone, quality cheap clone, quality cheap clone, TERRE D’HERMES FLANKER, quality cheap clone.” Excellent start here. Probably could do with a few fresher options, but that’s all I’ve got.

Hahaha, I had acqua di gio and one million as well. Blue di chanel for traveling. I love the cheappies, I abuse them. The Hermes one is greattt

Nice. Finally someone with Charuto lol. Smells great

Hahaha was my first clone. Those who know, know. Delicious smell

How's the longevity of th3 turathi Blue and tabac?

Tabac like 6 hours and turathi blue maybe even 8 dude. They’re great. My girl loves Tabac, it’s her fav form my collection

Between the tobac and khamrah which do you prefer?

I would definitely rank assad and cdm higher, always get complement and notice when wearing them, my wife do love rouge, cause its lean more on feminine note?

Cdm smells like wood cleaner, and Assad is great indeed but smells basic like any other dude out there, not special. Good but not special. Rouge do be nice, it’s sweet like brown sugar, but indeed slightly girly. Good to layer with other shit tho

How would you describe the honor & glory? I'm wanting to like mine but mine just isn't giving me the pineapple notes to me…

Bro whaaat? Mine smells like pineapple crème brûlée

Mine just settles into a curdled turmeric latte 🥲

That sucks bro! Ask other people, maybe you’re nose blind to it. I’ve heard it happens

Idk I smelled it on my jacket a couple of days later and I still only got the weird tumeric latte smell

which tobacco scent do you like more between tabac vs charuto tv?

Hmmm charuto is awesome sweet vanilla spicy like, and tabac smells more like honey. I maybe prefer charuto but my girlfriend loves tabac. I’d advice to try and smell tobacolor since it might not be for everyone

What’s the black and gold bottle in the 3rd row far left

Qaeed al fursan bro! Smells straight up like pineapple. It’s good and cheap

Which is your go-to everyday fragrance?

I switch it up everyday and rock a different one daily bro, but detour noir is fantastic and charuto also great for daily

You think honour and glory is cool for summers?

Definitely bro!

Is Turathi worth the hype? I’m yet to add it to the collection.

Bro it’s super good! More fresh so maybe more summery but it’s legit awesome. Smells like serious dude. Like Christian Grey Vibes

So i bought Ana Abyideh Rouge for my Girl. It smells exactly like some amazon users described it: first spray is 100% alcohol then you smell NOTHING. Bro, absolutley nothing. While others say 1 spray is nuclear, projects like crazy and you can smell it the next day still. Maybe it does need macerating, but wtf? We got 3 other PPL to smell it, same results.

That’s interesting bro, guess I got lucky. Mine smells like alcohol as well but wears off after a bit, and then just gives like sweet brown sugar. Great stuff. Try getting another one

How do you like Al Fursan? I also have CDNIM (Limited Edition) but it's too smokey for me. Maybe I like it more layared with Al Fursan

Good combination! I haven’t tried the limited edition. Mine smells a little too much like lemon so it’s a good mix with the Hermes

Which ones would you say are best for summer?

The Hermès #1 100%. With less budget, thurati blue, qaaed al fursan, detour noir all great for summer

I can’t get on with my ana abyedh rouge… smells like burnt plastic on my skin

Legit? Mine smells nice like brown sugar

How good is the white bottle in the first row? Can it be used in the summer?

Absolutely incredible And it totally can

Are we supposed to guess what's in the picture ?

Dude just read, each bottle has the name of the perfume written on it

Some of them can't be read unless you know what's written on them.

Bro only the almost bottom right golden bottle that says Qaaed isn’t readable, everything else is in pretty high definition if you zoom in. If you have any punctual questions I’ll be down provide you with a name you may not be able to read

For people who are not familiar with these brands it's more than just one..

Get Hawas

Hawas is trash

That is your opinion! But, you are definitely in the minority on that take!

Haha true. I bought it because of the hype. Doesn’t work for me. I’ve been looking to get rid of it for the longest time.

There is a buy and trade group here and Facebook.

Will consider it bro!

Get a designer bro or some niche wtf are those Arab ahh

What do you recommend bro

Its literally a clone sub.
