Part two is here, with some good surprises, drop your rankings below 👇 I'm very curious as always!
Should we look at what I've tested from Lattafa so far next? 🤔
Can you give recommendations for winter fragrances on a budget
Keeping projection and longevity in mind
I have aquatica away – could not stand the coconut note. In Asia, many people used to wear coconut oil as a hair product so the coconut note in aquatica reminds me of that more than the luxurious resort vibe.
Thank you goat ❤
My new favourite fragrance channel, very banced and realistic, keep at it bruv, you're a breath of fresh air in this fragrance racket
Very surprised by your ranking of Elixir. I find it to be extremely close to the original and the performance is decent.
Please review Davidoff mineral safran
Broo love your content. Thanks for the feature. Love Vantage!
Also love Aquatica- everyone likes it!!
Have you ever reviewed al haramain detour noir?
Thanks for the review mate ❤️
I agree with your take on Wolf. had Wolf delivered a few days back, and after the bummer that was Nocturno Elixir, it redeemed Rayhaan for me. A very smooth blend that comes very close to designer quality. You also just convinced me to add Corium to my shortlist. Thanks for putting this video together; I've been waiting for it for some time. By the way, what's your opinion on Boss Bottled Elixir? I'm on the fence about buying it. Have a great day!
When I let Crimson sit for MONTHS the sharp spice got much softer and smoother. Took a long time though.
SWY Leather kinda just sounds like the newer SWY Parfum, which smells like Stronger With You with added leather.
Love these videos. Every time I start to slightly bite on the hype of these Rayhaan fragrances it’s videos like yours that make me realize why I don’t get them. So glad you keep these things in check and based in reality. Not that some of these are not possibly good. It’s just that almost all of them are not great. And I don’t want to fill my shelves full of “just okay” or “good” fragrances. Really appreciate you. Have a terrific day my friend.
I only have Crimson and I've only smelt Centaurus once.
I actually agree with your description of Crimson although personally it's a B because I actually like it for it's own merits. As a Centaurus clone, It didn't really remind me of it and if anything it made me think of Mancera Red Tobacco due to it's sheer aggressiveness rather than the profile which isn't similar.
Taureau de Combat from the Lattafa Pride line is smoother and I think you may find it better balanced although still not super close to Centaurus.
so far, I am unable to appreciate corium. Not sure why but it just doesn't come across as something I can wear out.
Great vid! I rate Rayhaan Italia highly, from what I've smelt is niche fragrance in an affordable bottle and it lasts too. Not the closest on to Naxos but a more versatile take on it.
Literally just gave away Terra and obsidian, they both smell cheap and maybe I should just stay away from Rayhaan, too much sweetness to mask quality
1. Terra
2. Crimson…..cinnamon is not that ramped up. Not nearly as spicy as described in this video
3. Italia…
4. Obsidian
5. Aquatica
6. Elixir (missing tobacco)….but better than what this reviewer said
7. Azul….but you must like a strong lemon note
Based on what I have
Thank you got the great ranking. You stopped me from buying vantage. I'm waiting for Ameer from Maison Asrar
Best JPG Le male clone: Armaf- Lionheart Man
Great ranking. In my colection I have several Rayhaan but my ranking is : 1.Terra; 2: Vantage; 3: Aquatica; 4: Nava Sol; 5: Obsidian. And speaking of Creed Centaurus, I opted for Lattafa Taureau de Combat. It’s less strident but better blended.
As an alternative to Rayhaan Corium, wearable leather that is, I just bought the Cristian Provenzano take on the leather note made for Armaf (it's the Provenzano Armaf X, the black one) and for the heavily discounted price (40 euros vs 150 bucks retail) you get, in my opinion, the best woody leather on the market. There are of course touches of rose and red fruits (probably the same overused raspberry note) but essentially I smell a creamy, woody leather that's surprisingly unique and quite wearable, even in hotter seasons. I almost get an old piece of timber smell, maybe like an old empty cigar box covered by a mature leather. The performance is good, not stellar, but the presentation is luxurious.
Aquatica, Tera & Obsidian.. in that order.. I haven’t got any of the new one
Great video.
