Watani

Okay so I got this yesterday. This is a pleasant perfume which I’m thankful for since I blind buy Middle Eastern perfumes because I love them and I am optimistic about the outcome😭. I will update upon maturation. For now though, this perfume is sweet - not cloying and has been on my skin for a 2-4 hours so far going strong. I would describe it as a grape gummy scent with a nice candied rose type of sweetness to it in a subtle way blended with the grape. Bear in mind I’ve had it on for a few hours so this is the heart to the base of the perfume. The initial impression is a little herbal, and that splash of juicy, sparkling cassis that si is loved for. It’s not an exact dupe of Si. There is a bit of similarities that loosely weaves through the scent but it might be because this is still new. Upon maturation it might change. Upon maturation : This perfume is great. It’s like si’s cousin with a bit of similarity but 70% is different. It’s really nice, it’s got an innocent seduction kind of juxtaposition going on. Not too sweet, not juvenile, it’s a tad woody, fruity. Almost bubblegummy if I think hard enough. A summer warm sweetness that can be worn in other seasons too! But it’s a really nice fragrance, the people around you probably won’t have it so if you want something not many people have, sure, get it. I do like it a lot. It is a bit dated though. As it matures it becomes deeper and more profiled for people with a taste for more vintage perfumery. But it doesn’t have that vintage smell you may associate with Chanel, elie saab etc

Acho uma obra prima. Ele me ganhou de primeira, lembra muito o Sì, algumas pessoas acham muito especiado e forte, datado também, mas, é um dos meus favoritos. Eu particularmente AMO perfumes fortes, esse foi meu primeiro árabe e amei muito. Não recomendo dar blind, pois, ele é diferente dos cheiros que todas amam.

The notes listed for this scent are at once very vague and pretty accurate. I mean, sure there are fruits, flowers, some herbs in the opening, but not any particular ones, just a smooth blend of everything. I think I smell a rose, but that's it, and it doesn't make the scent rose-centered. The opening is a bit sharp, but does not last long, and then it turns smooth and very sweet. Overall, it's a really pleasant scent if you like them sweet and it has no risky notes. Nothing groundbreaking but a solid like.

A very good super fruity and FRESH scent! Not complex or anything but still kinda unique in its on way. It is very similar to ”Si by Armani” though but not a spot on dupe. It has the same DNA. Perfect to use during all times! I’ll give this one a STRONG 6,5/10.

I got this a while ago and ive let it be since last winter but yeah it gives a bit too much old woman for me. But i do not absolutely hate it which is good. Its very fruity but in a bit dated way.
