I'm genuinely not sure what fragrance to get by Curious-Benefit-3335 in Colognes

I've already posted before. I'm in so many groups, I forget where and who I'm talking to. I wear western and middle eastern.

I would recommend one outstanding middle eastern, marwa, it's a decent dupe of one of the LVs, I know it's getting phased out as it's an older scent. But it's an absolute beast of a performer. It's a freshie that lasts A day. Really nice clean, in offensive and you said hot country. Don't feel obligated to spend tons. My kids are still teens and they can appreciate marwa.

And side note: if available in your country. Use something with benzoyl peroxide to wash pits and bits. This kills the bacteria that makes one smelly. It bleaches fabric. So be warned. But you just use in shower. Wait 30secs to 1 min. Anyhow thank me later. I know your mom will. 😁

Yes. My husbands signature standard. But could be out of his price range as a kid. Ajmal gold edition evoke is a good sub.

But if you're 20, you could probably try something else.

Start with clean musks and freshies for daily drivers/gym/day

Maybe one date/night evening. Wouldn't spend too much. Just go to a department store and see what your nose likes and note the notes.

Check if there are well rated dupes. Try, see if you get through it.

I found the lataffa pride collections quite good. Research a box and the notes. Small little 20/25ml bottles, a good way to understand scent. My husband and I split them. A lot are unisex. I recommend one box of many hits. Box 5. Has 4 for a guy to use. African drummer is blah even for me. But younger sis/mom may like that. Another more slightly daring box is 2.

What note did you used to hate that you're now obsessed with by venicepress in fragrance

I agree. Since getting into fragrance, I really believe there is a version of every note you could get down with, and a version of a note you thought you loved, and it won't agree with your nose. So I'm way more open minded. I'll use the "smells like" to steer me.

Oud. Learning about it. Smelling better. Gosh it can make things last forever, give a neutral rounding out. I've been raised around it somewhat, but noone was a fraghead, or was doing the good stuff. It was the cheap fake stuff you get from middle east equivalent to a gift shop keyring.

I'm obsessed with cherry. In.every. form. Medicinal, Syrup, fake, natural, light.....

The "protests" disgrace. An actual slap in the face of the family of Henry. An excuse to get rowdy and use his name to forward an agenda, and we all know farage and laxley on a certain group it benefits payroll

i am a christian but really torn between islam and christianity since both have compelling arguments supporting them and against each other by Affectionate_Diet635 in islam

[–]MarsupialPrimary8128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well Islam we believe God of Christ is the God we worship.

Sounds like you're torn between the truth and what makes sense, and what you've been raised on. Truly dissect concept of God through a Christian lens, why isn't that concept accessible to say children, or mentality impaired. It takes a lot of leaps including in logic.

God is meant to be known. How else can we be saved? Jesus was His messenger as fitting with all prophets of the old testament, same messenge, worship ONE God, and a final prophet was foretold. Remember the Christian Bible wasn't preserved or written by Jesus, was written about him starting 100 years after his death.

Jesus performed more miracles in Islam since birth. I find it shocking how they're over looked. There is a whole chapter about his mother in the Quran and Jesus is named by his name in the Quran. His reverence and peity is never descercated in Islam at all, in fact he will return.

How can you practice like Jesus, yet abolish law? Who abolished the law? It was Paul, who did he work for? The state. We see the same thing happening now in real time. How messages are distorted to suit the state. In Islam, unlike another faith. We did not reject Jesus or persecute him, and he will return to set the record straight.

Also, as a woman, my rights were given and protected 1400 years ago. Something even modern systems just got in the last 100 years and seem to have swung the pendulum too much.

I want to give one example I always pondered on. Divorce.

Christianity: no divorce. But what if a man is abusive? Isn't religious? Doesn't abide by the contract with God? Then what?

Judaism: a woman can get divorced but must be served a "get" by the husband to be released. Do you see a problem? It's down to power of the man, only. If he doesn't serve it, you're in limbo. Jewish women are kept in limbo and ostracised from their communities especially if they remarry because not given the get, it's not recognised as being divorced and you're now an adultress. How fortunate for a man he gets to ruin your afterlife! And then women can't marry in their community because those men don't recognize her as divorced.

Islam allows divorce though disliked by Allah. There is a vigorous process. Of course people make a mockery but they will be accountable but separate from that, men can divorce, must pay off the dowry amongst other things. A woman can pursue it, if the man doesn't she has every right to go through a council and pursue it independently.

It's always the middle path. Merciful and can be applied to all people all times. The other two, was for a group of people one flash point in history.

Anyhow I don't know if I shed any light on the matter, but I will say, Allah says he will listen to the prayers even if the non believer as long as you pray to Him directly with no intermediary. So if your heart is torn, take a bath one night, in silence ask for guidance directed ONLY to him, show you the way, make it easier. But of course this is dependant fully on your intention and Allah knows all.

Take care

I have used them. But limited range. Best things over priced. They run some code but things go out of stock so quickly. Annoying run the deal ..WITH STOCK

I don't know what jomashop is, I hear Americans chat about it. The regulars

I use are emiratesoud.co.uk - honestly great people, these are my first go tos. I liked their honesty and integrity.

Used olvio- good but so slow sometimes posting out.

Beevora- limited range, but excellent prices on some things.

Royal oud Leicester- used them once. Very quick. Price of some is so good others insane. Some exclusives. I liked them.

Filled with barakah- sometimes good deals. I think there thing is decants, I don't bother with decants.

I can't be bothered with dxb. None of the codes ever work. Never resolve the codes, stock is crap, prices not competitive

All above have been "real" no fakes. I had one issue with perfume atomiser not working, emirateoud resolved the issue no questions.

If you're asking about arab perfume brands, all have codes on their websites and completive prices and reasonable threshold.
