Dubai Nights Midnight

I had to wait for 3 months of maceration for the final product and it's beautiful. I own La Di Da by Arabiyat Prestige and Lynked Freedom by Afnan as well. I didn't buy the one from Zimaya since everyone said it lasts only 30 mins. From the first sprays (3 months ago) it was a more spicy version of Myslf, where the patchouli was quite in your face. After 3 months, out of all my 60+ fragrances I own, this one changed the most. It evolved into a more soapy and a little more fresh spicy version of Myslf. I love it. 10/10 If you want to know about the other two to know which one is for you, I would recommend all of them since they have their own personality, they are worthy to wear. Lynked Freedom Afnan: It's a twist of Myslf based more on Caramel and Lavender than that realistic pleasant Orange Blossom that I was looking for, (this explains why people compare it with Azzaro The Most Wanted). It's a 10/10 fragrance, the classic "Afnan never misses", I had to wait 3 months of maceration for it because it had a different kind of harshness, just don't expect it to be on the Orange Blossom side, if you're looking for that specifically. La Di Da by Arabiyat Prestige: Out of the box I felt some type of chemical harshness and made me feel sick, you just need to invest 4 months of maceration to evolve in what is supposed to be. No more harshness, doesn't make me feel sick if I keep my nose on my wrist, it is 98% YSL Myslf, I would say it's the most accurate clone out of all the clones, it might actually change even more in the next months, but you have to wait for it (just like every other dupe fragrance I own) the most accurate clone (so far) of YSL Myslf.

I really like this scent profile so I ordered this one even though I already have zimaya itqan noir in my collection which is what I'll compare this against. I have smelt the original at a tax-free Shop while on a small trip. I remember that it didn't leave such a big impression the first time but rather later that night I felt the scent on the back of my hand and fell in love. My budget is limited and collecting fragrances can be really expensive so I tend to go for the affordable alternatives which Zimaya was and a good alternative as such but I'd say Armafs version smells alot more richer and deeper. It is the better alternative in my opinion. Its more heavy because of the lavander which gives it more depth while Zimaya is sweeter and lays more emphasis on the orange blossom mixed with almost a caramel type of scent almost leaning toward another scent from Zimaya called oscar or something like a very watered down version of Baccarat rouge. Armaf does a wonderful job of blending the notes together perfectly. Although I'm not sure which of them gets closer to the OG. Honestly I don't care because armaf did such a great job with this one that Im not interested in the OG anymore. This is great as it is which is good enough for me. In conclusion: a wonderful and enjoyable scent that pretty much makes the original unnecessary in my opinion. Sure they might have used higher quality ingredients and it probably lasts longer but this isn't such a uniquely complicated scent anyway that it would require only the best and most expensive ingredients. Dubai nights midnight is close enough for me and well worth the price. It's a winner in my books.

To Mikeltee: It's a great scent inspired by YSL MYSELF. I literally took my bottle into Sephora and had a friend smell it on a strip/skin and we then compared it to YSL. VERY close but does its own thing. I feel it does better in mild weather as apposed to warm summer weather. Not a winter frag, but something you could do in cooler nights in late summer, early spring and fall. But i love it. It has similar profile to another darker one I own that I think gets too much hate. Which is MontBlanc Legend EDP. In the opening they smell similar, but go different directions that are far apart enough that they do their own thing. Midnight dubai to me is for the more mature man, while LEGEND EDP is for a younger man who wants to stand out a little. Have not tried the other Dubai sent in the lineup. I hope they continue with this line. Also for clone houses ARMAF has the best presentation bar none.

La salida es de esta fragancias es Deliciosa rica masculina, toque jabonoso encantadora , es el mismo aroma que Montblanc legend spirit EDT , solo que con un toque más dulce , no la siento duradera en piel dura como 3 horas y nada más y en ropa 6 horas. Myself es muy caro. .creo que si vale la pena tener el ADN de Ysl Myself por este precio. Pero las fragancias no deben ser beast mode. Puedes usar un reaplicador. Calificación :8.5 de 10

Not a MYSLF fan, so can't compare them. Just the fragrance alone for me is such a wonderful one for the price. Clean, soapy, floral. But in the masculine way. For me this is actually very strong and powerful on my skin, it can actually be slightly cloying if you go too heavy. And it lasts 10hrs for me. Leaves a strong scent trail. 9/10 super nice. Mass appealing, easy to wear year around, signature scent worthy imo
