My Favorite Scent for Every Day
I ordered this fragrance and two others from Lataffa in Dubai and had them delivered to my daughter, who lives in Dubai. She brought me the fragrances during her next visit to Germany.
Ejaazi is a fantastic scent for me that really resonates with me. After two to three hours, I can no longer smell it myself. However, when I smell it on my clothes in the evening, it still smells great.
I actually use Ejaazi every day, even when I'm not going out.

I Only Liked It After a While
I bought the fragrance blind based on the reviews and the low price (€25 including shipping). Upon the first spray, I was a bit disappointed. It smelled quite strongly of moss and wetland, almost musty. As if you were wading through a swamp. I thought, this is not my scent. But then after a while, the smell became very pleasant. The other components emerged, such as incense, iris, patchouli, sandalwood.
I can't say which ingredient caused my initial aversion due to lack of experience. Was it the vetiver?

First sweet, then woody
I received Safeer al Oud today at a reasonable price from Amazon.
Upon the first spray, it strongly reminds me of Bentley for Men Intense.
Later, this impression fades and various woods emerge.
Amazon lists the following fragrance notes:
Top notes:
Sont Oudh, Pink, and Spicy Saffron
Heart notes:
Gujrun Balsam, Sandalwood, and Patchouli
Base notes:
A base of incense, Oudh, cedarwood, and Guaiac wood rounds off the fragrance.
For me, as a fan of oriental scents, a lovely perfume that seems to last quite a while. It could definitely also be worn by women.

Amenity Kit
I recently discovered the scent through the Body Lotion from Bulgari, even though I have had the Business Class Amenity Kit from Emirates sitting in my closet for a while. The kit includes Body Lotion, perfume, and aftershave cream. Since my arms tend to peel a bit in the summer after showering, I decided to try it with the Body Lotion. And lo and behold, the lotion is great and I really like the scent as well. Since I am not a tea drinker, I am not familiar with the smell of green tea. But the fragrance feels very familiar to me and flatters my nose. Perhaps I will buy the series once the samples run out.

G. Bellini X-Bolt - Scent Twin?
Because I used to really like Boss Bottled and this Lidl fragrance was mentioned in the forum as a scent twin, I decided to get G. Bellini X-Bolt. In the first few seconds, it actually smells similar to Boss Bottled. However, that fades very quickly. What remains for me is a very unpleasant, cheap, chemical smell that I can't identify. So it has nothing to do with the natural components of Boss Bottled at all. Moreover, the scent is hardly perceptible after half an hour. For me, it is absolutely not a scent twin. In my opinion, this X-Bolt isn't even worth 5 euros.
