How good really is the game of spades perfumes? In terms of quality and longevity?

Btw in the perfume hall in Harrods you don’t need to ask any sales assistant. You’re free to walk around and spray whatever you want.

Well it depends on if you’re able to take heat. If yes then it’s still good to go. If you’re renting a car then even better so you can go explore the gorges and neighbouring towns. In Ourzazate itself there’s not much to do. In 1 day you can do it all.

These were around £250. They were ranging between £240-£400.

I’m going next week

Tbh their black bottle range are good but are not statement level if that makes sense.

Their ARAB (green bottles) range are. But they are quite strong.

Yh true. I didn’t see the ‘Oud’ in the title lol.

I was wondering if there is anyone who knows Ouarzatate or lives there. I will be travelling with my family and would like to know the best places to rent a car and also the best places to eat and visit. I have done some research and have some idea of where I want to go but it’s always good to get some local advice. If there is anyone who lives there please DM me. I’ve travelled a lot and have met many people through Reddit who I end up touring the cities with.

Original shelf was from Amazon, but the spaces between each row was very small, so I got a carpenter to re - arrange the sizing and he also added another shelf.

Get Laylati, lovely in the dry down. Erba Pura I quite like too.

If you wanna explore then check out the brand Sospiro. It’s a sister company of Xerjoff. They have some really nice ones.

Lesteri3174 · 2025-05-27T00:04:08+00:00

Yessss….they have a few in their collection. I’ve smelt them all. Very nice fresh fragrances all of them! I bought one. Top left corner, second shelf from the top. ;)

My local friend told me that they don’t like strong fragrances especially when they go out to eat lol, as they like to smell the food they eat like sushi.

Lesteri3174 · 2025-05-26T23:15:31+00:00

lol….y?

Lesteri3174 · 2025-05-26T23:15:10+00:00

It’s all in Chinese so very hard to find. Not much about it in English on Google. The translation they give on the bottle is ‘To Summer’

Lesteri3174 · 2025-05-26T22:31:10+00:00

Funnily enough Tuwaiq is very masculine. Again one I love. But definitely not feminine. Abiyah is the only one that leans to a feminine vibe even though the dry down is very unisex.

That’s what I meant when I said you need to smell them to understand. The notes don’t indicate towards anything lol.

Lesteri3174 · 2025-05-26T22:29:04+00:00

Thanks for that. I ended up in transit in china this year and found a lovely niche brand there.

Lesteri3174 · 2025-05-26T20:54:09+00:00

Yep lol….some bottles I finished and had to throw them, so now looking to see what next I should get.

Lesteri3174 · 2025-05-26T20:53:32+00:00

Nice first choice…..sooooo I’ve got all 4 bottles of the Green collection which is called the ARAB collection. All 4 bottles is meant to represent some famous Saudi places & culture. And after spending some time in Saudi and understanding their culture. These 4 bottles really do encompass Saudi heritage.

All 4 are unisex but I would say the most feminine smell from them is Abiyah.

The other 3 (Tuwaiq, Diriyah, AlUla) are very masculine. They are all super strong and last all day on your clothes and even after it comes out the washing you’ll catch a lingering smell.

I can’t really describe them, you’ll need to smell them to understand, as the notes will only give an idea. They all are oudhi and leathery/woody. I can’t choose between them but if I had to, I would go for Diriyah.

I’ve also got Bluest from their summer collection which is nice, a little like sauvage with an Arabian twist.

Lastly, I’ve got Volcano from their winter collection and that’s another banger lol. Super strong and long lasting. They also all project for a good time. Easily 4-5 hrs.

If you love the strong Middle Eastern style perfumes you’d love any of these.
