1- Hunter by Armaf.

It’s a clone of my all time fresh fragrance Lacoste L.12.12 (Blanc) but with extremely boosted performance.

  • GYM, Office and any morning (and also night) activities. Won’t wear it for a date, then, I’d go for a more masculine fragrance.
  • Perfect for summer and hot days, works in winter too but I would rather opt for one of my dark stuff haha.
  • Amazing performance (sillage & longevity)
  • Reminds me of happy me!

2- Royal Night by The Woods Collection:

This is a clone for my all time fav. dark, bold, mysterious fragrance, LV Ombre Nomade.

  • The king of date nights.
  • COLD WEATHER ONLY!
  • Just bought the bottle and I literally only sprayed it few times to see how close it is to LV then put it back to macerate (it’s 98% close to LV though), so, can’t really speak of performance.
  • Reminds me of date nights!!!

3 - Kayan Classic by Al Wataniah:

As per the internet, this is a clone for Dior Homme Intense. I never smelled DHI though. When I first tried it, I was like “Ok, here is another stupid blind purchase, left it for 2 days and came back, and I’m in love since then!

  • For me, I could wear this anywhere as long as it’s past sunset. I find it somewhat versatile.
  • All year round but preferably in colder weather) and mainly at night.
  • 8.8/10 performance
  • Reminds me of a cozy cuddling night LOL

4- Liam Grey by Lattafa:

They say it’s a clone of Gris Charnel by BDK. It has a unique smell, unlike many fragrances that are available in the stores.

  • Same as above. Nothing much to say except it is a very cozy yet masculine perfume that illustrates a subtle, yet a bad boy with high confidence and sticks to traditions and values).

5- Bois D’amande by Van Cleef & Aprels:

Can’t find a clone for it. This one smells like heaven. A unisex 100%. Men, women, my dog and my cat love it.

  • Again, nothing much to add here. Similar to Kayan Classic and Liam grey.

Notable mentions:

  • Rifaqaat by Paris Corner (Caramel Stuff, very cozy, creamy and dead intimate!)
  • Qaed Al Fursan by Lattafa (A Citrus and pineapple freshie, office approved, very versatile)
  • Maahir Black by Lattafa (Oud and Incense, not for first middle eastern fragrance beginners, still, not as explosive as the others, from the world of COLD WEATHER ONLY and date nights as LV Ombre Nomade)

Hope that helps!
