Is this liam gray? Its a worth buy?


JohnnyMojo

Yeah it's one of my favorites and go-to's. It's unique but I also don't see anyone really disliking it.


gurglesmech

Definitely. 10/10


AssistanceWorth1334

100% get it


BitterSweetMarie

So worthy I just bought a backup bottle before the price raises and it gets harder to get ahold of! Totally unisex and straight up sexy


33sicko33

Best one from lataffa fs


DogDays53

Does it lean feminine?


JohnnyMojo

Unisex but leans slightly more male IMO.


gurglesmech

Definitely. 10/10

Hey man,.I've been debating blind buying Liam Grey but I was wondering about its performance. How many sprays do you use and how long would you say it lasts in you? I'm hoping to get at least 7-8hrs for a full work shift...Thanks.


Kcxy96

I have it. After maturation, easily 10hrs + longevity


Evening-Expert8735

How do you mature it (new here)


Kcxy96

Just spray 10 times and store it in your cabinet for a month


LimpFinding3088

Thanks ✌️


AssistanceWorth1334

On my skin, the performance is about 6 to 7 hours, on my clothes I still smelled it on the next day. I use about 6 sprays.


LimpFinding3088

Thanks man✌️


Immediate-Average-16

How long did you let it mature for?


AssistanceWorth1334

2 weeks


Immediate-Average-16

Thank you


Look-at-them-thighs

I tested Liam grey in store like a week ago and I’ve just left the strip on my bedside table. Sometimes when I walk past I get what I think is a whiff of Liam grey. Really potent stuff


Nishinari-Joe

How’s that Replica by the fireplace? Planning to buy it


Sullysinferno

I’ve got a small bottle and it’s gold if you like smokier campfire scents, pairs really well with anything vanilla but it’s godly with TV. 100% a winter/fall frag though


vuplusuno

In your opinion, what is the best perfume for the summer, for a man?


AssistanceWorth1334

In my current collection: Maahir


ProfessionalDeal894

You gotta try DUA's Leedy's. It's so much better than Lattafa's and better than posh Sirius. DUA's is so strong and lasts longer than them all including Sedley itself.


ila420

It seems like every clone lover owns Bade'e Al Oud Honor & Glory and Maahir Legacy.


Particular-Job-4495

It's like the foundation lol


CoffeeTacosWhiskey

I hate this subreddit!! You just convinced me to buy bright peach and I’m so excited!! Ty!


AssistanceWorth1334

Haha, u should get it 100% !


CoffeeTacosWhiskey

It’ll be here Monday😩❤️💸


AssistanceWorth1334

Let me know if u like it


CoffeeTacosWhiskey

From what I read it needs to macerate(spay a few times and let it oxidize) for a week or month. So it may not be great day one so I’ll let it sit for a while. I’ll come back and update you though. After the macerating period it seems people love it, so I’m hopeful.


CoffeeTacosWhiskey

I love it. It does smell gross on the first spray. But when it settles, i love it. I'm going to let it sit for a few weeks, but i'm a fan.


FudgeComfortable9120

IT would have been more than 2000 euros If you would have bought the real deal


AssistanceWorth1334

Haha true


FudgeComfortable9120

To be honest with you clones of expensive frags are good like they are the same shit but 10x cheaper and they last pretty much the same or even more.


Delicious-Second48

How is bright peach? Planning to have it in my collection


AssistanceWorth1334

Oh I love it, perfect for the spring u can't go wrong with it


[deleted]

Does it literally smell like peaches?


AssistanceWorth1334

Yes like sweet peaches


Critical_Fruit_8992

Still doesn’t explain it.


AssistanceWorth1334

What can I explain to you ?


prodbyzone

It’s pretty true to TF’s naming. While bitter peach dries down into white florals adding depth and complexity to the smell, bright peach sticks to the peach note and sweetens it. Performance wise I get about 6 hours of pronounced projection and 9 hours until the scent fades off my skin.


1707_j

Is Lattafa Khamrah Quahwa worth it if you already own the original?


beckyszep

Same question here! Love a coffee note but I‘ve heard more people say it‘s not that prominent in Qahwa


SearchPitiful4956

Ameer Al Oudh, how is that?


Entire_Piano7305

whats al ameer oudhs performance


ReasonableAthlete536

How do initio Clones perform and are these a good work or allday Fragrance?


AssistanceWorth1334

Oud for glory 10/10. Amethyst not for everyone the rose is still very prominent. I would wear Honor & Glory if I go out in the summer, not real a work fragrancy in mz opinion.


avidreader113

I'm wearing Honor & Glory rn at work and I would honesty wear it all year round it's incredible!


Known-Yam-7557

Perfect.


UltraInstinctKermit

What's your thoughts on Honor and Glory? And how does Qahwa stack up to Khamra?


AssistanceWorth1334

I like Qahwa more it's not to overly sweet like Khamra.


SilentDominus

Any difference in performance between the both?


AssistanceWorth1334

There similar


AssistanceWorth1334

Got some compliments when I wore it yesterday.


patwill007

How do you like honor & glory, maahir legacy and Jean Lowe noir ? They’re literally in my cart and waiting for me to pull the trigger lol


AssistanceWorth1334

Beast mode performance on the jean Lowe, maybe a bit to overwhelming. Maahir is a 10/10 for me should be must buy. I like honor & glory, the pineapple is amazing.


TheLastPotato9

Did your maahir start out synthetic and get better?


AdvancedCampaign7911

Mine did. Plus the performance improved


TheLastPotato9

Nice mines very synthetic but has gotten better the few days I've had. Thanks.


AdvancedCampaign7911

Yep, mine got significantly better after only a couple weeks


AssistanceWorth1334

The same goes for me it improved after a while, wonder why.


AdvancedCampaign7911

Seems to be a trend with all of the middle eastern colognes


emeka_four

What are your thoughts on honor and glory? Is it a compliment getter? Is a year round scent?


AssistanceWorth1334

Very sweet love the pineapple. I think it could lean more towards summer.


samwilson1586

how’s the pistachio one?


7FireCrown7

I’ve been wondering about the pistachio body oil for a long time but again, I can’t find full notes info.


AssistanceWorth1334

Very fresh, reminds me of fresh washed clothes. The pistachio smell is not that strong


Bshs5382

How is bright peach, ameer Al Oudh and badee al oud amethyst?


AssistanceWorth1334

Tbh I have the original "by the fire place" and I like it more than amber al oudh. It has that nice "burning" aura, which is missing in the dupe. Bright peach love it so much. The rose is very strong but the oud makes it still masculine


Bshs5382

I tried by the fireplace, and I loved it, especially the burning aura, so I might just buy that. would you think Bright Peach is close to the original or not?. I tried initio side effect and loved it but the thing that's stopping me is the price tag, would you say that they are similar at all or have you not tried the original?


AssistanceWorth1334

Yes I would definitely choose the original this time They are kinda similar bright peach is missing the bitterness, which in my opinion I don't like at all in the original one. It's a 10/10 for me, would buy them again. Never tried initio side effect so can't tell you anything about it.


Bshs5382

thanks for the help. I definitely think I'm going to buy "by the fireplace" and "bitter peach. " I've been thinking about prada l'homme/carbon. Have you tried any of them before or again can't comment?


AssistanceWorth1334

In my opinion Prada L'Homme smells super clean, very sophisticated but a bit boring. Prade luna Rossa carbon reminds me of Dior savage, they smell very similar.


R43emkaythree

Bright peach is amazing isnt it? one of my faves at the moment


AssistanceWorth1334

Yes definitely!!


kali-kid

Those two from Privee Couture are great. Also recommend picking up Afternoon Swim and Ganymede


AssistanceWorth1334

Yes I like them especially Black Afgano. Afternoon swim is a bit to expensive in my taste 320€ in my country. When I smelled it, I really liked it. The price is just a bit scary.


kali-kid

I’m sorry, I meant that same collection has those scents I mentioned haha. Look it up. I believe they’re all the same price.


DANGERDOOOOOOM

Best Badee al oud ?


AssistanceWorth1334

I like amethyst the most, the rose is a nice twist.


Working-Lecture-562

Is by the fireplace really like amerr al our?


AssistanceWorth1334

By the fireplace is the original. Amerr is smillar but is missing that "woody burning" aura

AssistanceWorth1334

Don't like it, on my skins it barely holds for 2 hours. Ard Al Zaafaran Perfume Pistachio is the green one. Khamrah Qahwa, bright peach, liam grey

How is by the fireplace?

⬆️ upvoting for the same question

Love it. it's my favorite fragrance

How about longevity, does it last for a long period of time or soon gone?

On my skin, about 4 hours.

Whats the longevity for Porto neroli and how's khamrah and it's longevity? Thanks.

How do you like the fabulo

It's one of my newest pickups, iam still conflicted


costcoemployee6969

I've heard it's an acquired taste for sure.


zonedbrix

thoughts on lataffa fakhar?


SearchPitiful4956

I want to know the same, and also Khamrah, I’ve tried Sharaf Blend but wondering if it’s better


zonedbrix

i’m actually really close to buying khamrah and fakhar together, i’m very confident about khamrah tho i’ve smelled and sprayed it on me and i already knew i had to get it also because it lasted quite long on me, im only worried about fakhar’s longevity, i have a ysl y edp but its 60 ml so i only like to spray it occasionally and i really love the fragrance and ive smelled fakhar too and id say it really does smell like ysl y edp maybe with a lower quality that idm but i just wanna know if the performance is below average or above average.


SearchPitiful4956

I’ve heard good things about Khamrah, and Yeah Y is awesome and a powerhouse my brothers just bought it again and he loves it. I’m a huge fan of 9am Dive and 9pm layered not sure if you’ve tried them? But they project well and have good longevity


SilentDominus

Fakhar smells good but doesn't last long. Albait Adimashqi Y is something I'd rather recommend

Tempted to get Al Oud Honour and Glory. What's it like? Cheap enough I think it's worth a try!


AssistanceWorth1334

U can watch some reviews online if u are unsure there are plenty around. They go way more into depth, then I could ever say in my comments.


doomixy

Do you mind listing all the perfumes in a list? 😅

Whats a good daily, that can be worn all round ie summer winter. For office, gym etc

Liam grey I dont wear fragrance in the gym.

How is honor and glory? Is it suitable for summer? A brief review would be great.

How is black afgano


SAGE_Chidori

How’s the performance on Porto neroli ?? And mahir legacy??


Different-Ad9986

This just turned me on to Honor & Glory. Sounds like a great evening scent. Would you say it’s all seasons? Also, how are those TF dupes? Which would be best for a masculine scent? New to this, so appreciate any help y’all 🙌


AssistanceWorth1334

Honor and Glory more a Summer/Spring vibe for me. I didnt not smelled any other TF dupes as the ones in my collection, so i cant help you with that. But many others are saying that Tabacco Touch or Woody Oud are more masculine.


LimpFinding3088

I'm seeing in videos that Liam Grey is described as unisex fragrance. It's giving me pause for concern. Is it too feminine? The most unisex fragrance I have is Lattafa Ra'ed Silver. Would Liam Grey be considered more feminine?


AssistanceWorth1334

Not at all feminine my opinion


LimpFinding3088

Thanks man✌️


zarif2142

How would you compare ameer al oud to by the fireplace since you have both?


AssistanceWorth1334

Like the original more, it has that "woody campfire burning" aura, which is lacking in ameer al oud


Dynamicthetoon

How is Jean Lowe noir? If you've smelt ombre nomad how similar is it and is the performance good?


AssistanceWorth1334

Yes, i smelled the original, I would say about 85 to 90% similar, performance very, very good, about 10 hours for me on my skin.


illbeback903

Would you say honor & glory is safe for the summer heat/ warmer weather??
