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

Yeah, this is very close to the OG. So good, but with a slightly stronger herbal character. The geranium is beautiful here, and the patchouli is very nice as well. Fresh fougère. Shower gel. A solid woody base that settles everything down. This is one of my favorites in a collection of over 100 fragrances. It’s a true dumb reach. Non-offensive, easy to wear, but still not boring. 8.75/10

Clean citrus opening, that lasts. Hubby sprayed in store, we walked around and continued doing things and by the time he went to bed like 4 hrs later it was still noticable on him. Softer more skin scent but still noticeable. Another great inspired by MYSLF for a fraction of the price. Let him spray away.

What I'm getting is YSL MYSLF + LV's Imagination. So, a more fresh and woody take on MYSLF. Smells less synthetic. I'm not a huge fan of Imagination, though. Overall, think of it as a MYSLF that leans towards the citruses of God Of Fire, Tygar, Sunrise On The Red Sand Dunes, and Imagination.

I recently tried out at a local fragance store I highly recommend it it smells around 85% close to ysl myself edp very similar the orange blossom, bergamot and patchouli come out very close to what's duping, I recommend it if you're on a budget, I'm going to buy probably during summer.

Fresh. Floral. Soapy. There's a certain elegance to it. Quite powerful initially but drops off within an hour; potentially cloying in high heat/humidity. The dry down is a mildly sweet, elegant floral scent. Evokes class and business casual attire.

Well, Honestly, I think at this it is very similar to myslf by ysl and at this price point, it is a steal. Cannot complain about the performance and given the climate change, it is definitely something one should have in their collection

I just got this today. I have the OG and to my nose it is much closer to Myslf Le Parfum. It’s deeper and has the same woody dry down which the EDP does not have. Could have saved me some $ if I found this earlier.

i do have yal myslf the scent is very close at the dry down definitely not 1:1 however does an good job.. projection is decent at 2 hours, afterwards is skin scent for about 6-7 hours.. if with lotion is longer!

Straight up dupe of ysl myslf edp. Thank you. The only difference is quite lack of depth compared to the OG. But who cares? Just buy this if you don't want to spend a lot on the OG.

Great YSL Myslf clone! Great Quality for cheaper than YSL! U can trust ME Brands to bring u better quality with a lower price TAG! Lets hope it stays the same way!

@AlexFK u can let it master-bait wherever it feels easy and not shy! Just keep checking routinely!!! Hopefully it will make u happy in a few weeks!!

100% compliment magnet, worth the price, great longevity. A fresh, hint of white floral type, mild patchouli, citrusy, sweet, masculine. love love

Smell the new Ysl myself that just came out in summer ‘26, and then smell this one. They are literally identical to each other.

This shit is potent and freaking amazing. A year round banger. 10/10 Back up bottle worthy. Armaf is straight up killing it.

Best Armaf fragrance out there. I own like 30 from Armaf or so. 10/10

Great scent, it's a banger. Got it on a blind buy, I'm glad I did.

It's very similar to Prada Luna Rossa Ocean and it's clone from FW

This was one of dozens of decants I bought few months back. It didn't long to figure out which ones I liked, but this one I was on the fence about. Over the past few months I've used the whole decant (the other ones are still at 80%+), trying to decide whether or not to pull the trigger on the purchase. It starts out great, fresh laundry like smell, very likeable. However, as it dries down, I can't help but to think that my washing machine is broken, cycle didn't finish. It just TOO laundry detergent like, mostly because of the heavy synthetic citruses (esp. orange blossom). I also have La Di Da and Lynked Freedom, both better fragrances than this. However, the vanilla makes them a different take on the same idea. I want to love it, but it just quite hasn't convinced me to buy a full bottle. I'll give it a 7/10. So close, yet so far.

Nose Note #761 Well, I honestly don't think much of it. It reminds me of many things. YSL L'Homme, for example, not literally, but it has the same direction. Not ultra masculine. Big on patchouli and orange blossom. To me it has this shower gel vibe of BdC, Sauvage and others. MYSLF fits in the row. Except I can't say this one is something outstanding. Just nothing memorable for me here. 7.3/10, just OK UPD: 7.5/10 or higher. In the air it's super good. It absolutely excells at the designer territory, smells up there quality-wise with YSL. Just not my taste, but it's objectively very very solid. Worth it tenfold

I’m not saying they’re the same scent or have the same profile. I own both and I’m only talking about the lavender-based opening and the overall vibe on my skin. For my nose, Reverie Aqua feels more elegant and wearable, even if it’s not fresh. I mentioned it simply as a value comparison and a hidden gem for people who might want to try something similar at a much lower price. “Stay on topic” doesn’t mean ignoring real-world comparisons. Reviews are about personal wearing experience and value, not enforcing rules on how others should smell things.

Good fragrance for daily use and office. Opens in orange and bergamot and turn into some detergent scent, good non chemical scent. Longevity is average and it doesnt project much but its non offending and good for everyday. In clothes in stays way more, i can spray it and tomorrow i can still get the smell of it in the tshirt, while on my skin, it fades within 6-7 hours. Overall a cool pick for people who wants a minimalic scent profile and not cloying. 3-4 sprays is enough for me.

I think I might be alone on this one but, even though myslf smells slightly synthetic, Dubai nights has a distinct crispultra annoying note which makes it very unbalanced. With the myslf DNA you want something mass appealing and very likable fragrance. This will annoy people because it is not balanced well even through it is very close to the OG. Mine has masturbated for over a year now. So I guess it won't change much in the future.

I love YSL Myslf, so natural I wanted a dupe as the OG has pretty terrible performance after the first couple hours. I wouldn't say that this is a totally accurate clone (about 80% accurate imo). This has more minerality and stronger lavender, some will prefer it because of this. I don't think the notes harmonize as well as the original, but the longevity is much better than the OG. Overall, for the price, it's a great alternative.

Extremely Patchouli forward. Smells great from a distance where you can get the lavender but not up close. Maybe if I let it masturbate in my closet until next year after 97 sprays, it will be Beast Mode. All sarcasm aside, it smells like Myslf. The best option is Polo 67 for $30 more, though. Cheers to Armaf for not overloading it with Ambroxan. Probably why the Patchouli is so amped up.

Primer aroma floral que ocupo y es bastante llevadero y agradable, algo sutil para salidas de manera casual, aparte lo estoy utilizando a diario en climas frios (otoño/invierno) y anda bastante bien en el espacio personal. Rico perfume y bien masculino

While it smells high quality, it isn't my type, too generic, Reverie Aqua is much better, more elegant, niche quality and still has that lavender DNA of Myslf yet its only 25$. The only downside is that it isn't fresh.

If you want more depth, myslf quality wise, get la di da, if you want fresh, mass appealing myslf clone but a little bit synthetic, buy dubai nights, I have both and I like La Di Da more, way more smooth.

Siento que la duración y proyeccion quedaron debiendo para ser un perfume de Armaf. El olor si es un 10 de 10, ojalá saquen mejores versiones para aprovechar ese ADN tan bueno.

All i can smell is a clean loundrey, doesn't feel as a fregrance for me

Comparing the four types I tried this morning, which include: - Dubai Nights Midnight - La Di Da For Him - Nitro Elixir - Itqan Noir 1- Scent - Dubai Nights Midnight (Closest to the OG, light, smooth, and relaxing) - La Di Da For Him (Slightly stronger scent than Midnight; you could call it Midnight Intense as well) - Nitro Elixir (Very, very strong and chemical, mix of OG and Nitro Red) - Itqan Noir (Very light scent, only good for first 30 minutes) 2 - Longevity and Sillage - Nitro Elixir (A beast, lasts 10h on skin with insane sillage) - La Di Da For Him (Intense initially but fades upon drying, about 8h on skin) - Dubai Nights Midnight (About 8h on paper and 7h on skin) - Itqan Noir (I have nothing to say but disappointment, but it is also the cheapest) Among these four bottles, I only like La Di Da For Him and Dubai Nights Midnight, and if I could only choose one, it would be Midnight; though its longevity is slightly less than La Di Da, it is smoother, gentler, and more relaxing; I have a fun comparison that since MYSLF is quite similar to Libre, I see Dubai Nights Midnight as Libre EDT and La Di Da For Him as Libre Intense. My girlfriend also prefers Libre EDT over Libre Intense for the exact same reason lol. A small update: After a few days of closer inspection, there is a minor change regarding the longevity as follows: 2 - Longevity and Sillage - Nitro Elixir (A beast, lasts more than 12hs on skin with insane sillage, 3 days on paper, clothes....) - Dubai Nights Midnight (About 10hs on skin and 3 days on paper, clothes....) - La Di Da For Him (Intense initially but fades upon drying, about 8hs on skin, 2 days on paper, clothes....) - Itqan Noir (I have nothing to say but disappointment, but it is also the cheapest) So Dubai Nights Midnight even has better performance than La Di Da, a solid choice.

The opening is amazing. It might even be better than YSL Myself. A clean citrus blast but that opening is such a fleeting scent. It dries to a nice smelling fresh scent but does not project after a half hour. If that opening lasted even 2 hours, I would buy this all the time. My bottle is almost empty and I enjoyed it but will not purchase again. I want a freshie that lasts. A lot of people said they don't like the cap but it clicks in nicely for me.

I love the Myslf DNA but this isn't it, it only vaguely resembles the original. I'd say it's 70% blue shower gel, 30% white florals of the Myslf. It's not bad by any means but it's hella boring, and if you have any clean-fresh out of the shower perfume, skip this one as it's redundant. Also it's a really poor performer, 2 hours on my skin an it's gone. Shame.

After a month or so got closer to MYSLF. Although it still lacked the sparkly nature, which is the case with all clones, as the sparklines seems to come from higher quality materials. Good blind-reach to go do daily activities. 8.3/10

Here's a big ol middle finger to those of you that hype up these quality dupes. This should be $20. Nope... yall had to run your mouths! I ain't paying $50 for some desert dupe! OG for me...

Lasted about an hour on me. I don't think it smells like Myslf but it doesn't smell bad. 4/10. Thank goodness that I only had a 5ml decant of it. $40 saved....

This perfume as well as YSL Myself I see them feminine perfumes due to the flowers notes

shower-gely, modern, blue, powdery and fresh perfection. Its very minimalistic white floral fresh fragrance that is very mass appealing, wont offend anyone, and will get you compliments. I have it for a year now, and i can say its great daily fragrance, its perfect imo in smell sense, but performance could've been better, cant really complain tho, its fresh and original myslf isnt as good performer too. For me it lasts around 5-6 hours with medium projection. Would say good pick up for the price. Its very soft and idk i cant describe how pleasent it smells to me, however i rather prefer ysl libre over myslf dna, even though its almost same, libre has depth and more sweetness, this is clean and almost like masculine shower gel. I find this scent pretty unisex tho. 8/10 ^^

@leon226, what are you talking about buddy ? Reverie Aqua from Zimaya is a clone of Valentino Born in Roma Uomo Intense, which is a completely different scent profile than this. And no, Reverie Aqua is not niche quality, neither it is the OG fragrance that it is cloning. Please, stay on topic. People come here to read other's experiences about this particular Armaf fragrance, and not to read your dissinformation.

I have Armaf Dubai Night, Nitro Elixir, La Di Da, Xeena Lumen, Maison Asrar Rey, Zimaya Itqan Noir, and the best one, the one that most closely resembles the original and lasts 6-7 hours or more, is Armaf Dubai Night. The one that disappointed me was Maison Asrar Rey; it smells good, but the performance is terrible, it only lasts 2-3 hours and then disappears.

It has the floral / fresh scent profile of Myself EDP, but it’s more floral and less fresh, whereas Myself is more fresh and less floral, in general. It smells a lot more similar to freshly cleaned laundry. Myself is more subtle about that, but also a little more sharp. This is more soft.

Wow! This perfume is absolutely amazing! The top notes are perfect, the mid and base notes are just as impressive, and the price is unbeatable. This is One of the best fragrances from ARMAF—an excellent, budget-friendly alternative to my YSL. Thanks, ARMAF!

@AlexFK, yes it's a proven theory, MrHutto is right on point here. The only downside is that you might end up creating a new hybrid fragrance, "Jizz Nights Dubai"

So if I masturbate in the closet with this fragrance it’ll become beast mode? Asking for a friend. Maybe @MrHutto you can confirm?

Most accurate dupe of myself edp for sure, stuff is amazing, smells heavenly.

This is the best YSL MYSELF clone on the market. I love it.
