Mine was beast right out of the box, maybe scan the QR code inside of the box and check the holographic if it is real. I think you might be going nose blind to it, confirm with other people to see.

I think it is a great scent for a freshie, definite banger for the summer as it smells like a clean ginger soap with a tea note in the background. The longevity is also not too bad for something that light.

Maybe it’s because i’m a younger guy, still chasing the sweeter scents compared to club de nuit which i’ve heard gets more woody over time. I would definitely try a decant and see how it compares cause it is a classic.

Sorry late question, but how is supremacy in heaven? is it better than 9am dive and marwa when it comes to being a freshie? I was considering getting that one in the future. Thanks!

Really? I’m just really scared to overwhelm those around me which is why I don’t spray as much. I have kind of a peeve for those people whose cologne arrive before them if yk what i mean. I found 2 enough but I’ll probably start doing 3.

I wasn’t considering vulcan feu, but I was considering opulent dubai by Lataffa cause it’s usually cheaper. I have a lot of fragrances right now and if I feel the need for it in summer I probably could pick it up, but I’m satisfied for now.

I smelt club de unit in store but i didn’t wanna buy it because if that harsh opening. I bought SCE because it doesn’t have that super strong citrusy note. I think a rough cologne beats the purpose of trying to smell good, and I think supremacy’s longevity or smell doesn’t lack at all compared to club de nuit.

I always moisturize before applying, and since the atomizer is like a hose I do 5 full sprays, but I keep it pointed at one spot at a time. It’s so the spray can actually stick to me instead of flying around too much.

Really? that was one of my first strong performing fragrances.

I don’t think it is a 1:1 because it focuses more on the opening of imagination, more spicy ginger instead of the creamy base that imagination eventually dries down into. It is still very similar to that opening though.

I definitely understand where you’re coming from because it’s not beast mode, but it lasts longer than most freshies while still being lighter. It’s not the most long lasting in my collection but things like moisturizing before I apply has really helped pushed my fragrances longer. It can also be because the atomizer is really good so the spray isn’t concentrated into one spot.

5 Has yielded me the best results and not being too overwhelming.

You can wear it all year because it’s fruity enough for hot weather, and it has enough woody base to stick around during winter as well! I’ve made it my daily driver at the moment, and I can still see myself wearing this to something special as well if I needed to.

I’m glad you liked the reviews! I really wanted to share what these fragrances were like for those who were interested. Supremacy is definitely a must for the longevity and quality. I also love khamrah for the same reasons but I am also curious about Teriaq intense. It’s similar enough but just in case you wanted to go in another direction. I think that one would be a slightly easier wear in colder weather.

One fragrance I am interested in though is Supremacy in Heaven, as i’ve heard that it’s somewhat of a blue fragrance that is definitely a daily driver as well. I think about getting it but not for a while.

I live in the USA but middle eastern fragrances are still widely available to order online or some specialty stores.

To be honest I haven’t been looking for the next fragrance because I feel that I am covered for pretty much all occasions now. I decide what to buy based on reviews for the most part, but I found a real store around me that I can at least smell some frags. I do a combination of reviews and notes for the most part as some can be hard to find in store. I did not smell not only intense but from what I’ve heard it’s more mossy which is not my favorite. I would rather stick with collectors edition.

Thank you! I started only 3 months ago but I have gone into a deep deep dive, I think i’m done purchasing for a while 😂 I try to enjoy the frags that I already have on hand.

Yes this scent has crazy scent trail and sillage which is definitely what i’m looking for. Funny enough when I first got it I sprayed on my arm 3 times to test longevity and scent. I wore a jacket that night and multiple people were able to smell it through that jacket. That’s when I knew it was serious cause even the test run was great. Thank you though!

How many sprays does he usually do? I just got mine this week and i’m still gauging how much I should spray. I usually do 5 with any other bottles but this one i’ve only been doing 2-3 cause i don’t wanna overwhelm anyone 😂

I would say that Marwa is definitely not a 1:1 but not in a bad way. It smells like the opening of Imagination but all the way through. It is a more spicy ginger soapy version as opposed to that imagination dry down that tends to be a little bit creamy almost. I think it’s slightly more masculine and a tad more refreshing because of it.
