Laraib

This smells really good. I got it because of the comparison to Parisienne and Abyan but this reminds me more of Voce Viva Intensa. At first it smells so much like those little Valentine's Day heart candies. It's sweet, powdery and vanilla. But after being on my skin for a few minutes it really bloomed and now it smells almost exactly like Voce Viva Intensa to my nose. I love that fragrance so this is such a wonderful surprise! 🩷 I can definitely smell the violet and rose but I feel like this has some white florals or something in it because I'm getting that grape candy scent I get with a lot of white floral fragrances. This is super strong and long lasting, especially on clothes. Would definitely repurchase.

I like/love this a lot! It smells like grape candies and sweet florals. So feminine and a very happy scent. The bottle matches what the scent smells like to me as well. A sweet, purply, happy scent. This was really affordable too and the scent is pretty strong. This will layer well with other rose and powdery violet scents too. I am so happy to have picked this up! As a fan of violet, and sweet floral scents - this is a blind buy win.

I got this for less then €10, so it's super affordable. I wanted to get it bc I read about a grape candy scent in the reviews, and I was looking for exactly that. My first impression was meh - too sweet and alcoholic, nothing grapey and no violet. I let it sit for 3 weeks, and lo and behold - it is amazing! Still very sweet, but now I get the grape scent as well. I love it, and it's very strong!

Just got this today first spray I get the scent of grape candy but right after I get the violet or At least some floral. Don’t get the vanilla. unique and pretty scent. Is kinda juvenile though.

Yep straight up grape soda violet I love it so unique

I got this cause of the comparison with YSL Paris and wanted to see if this was a good dupe and cheaper alternative. I'm sorry to say that Laraib is nothing like the vintage Paris bottle I have. Paris is a bright light floral, resembling an English country garden, it has something green, joyous and fresh in it, and has a comforting Yardley-esque granny vibe. Laraib is a vanilla - violet bomb, with some rose in it, and something smoky. Perhaps also some patchouli or like something woody(perhaps like oak is in it? Cant figure it out), something in it makes this very intense, dry and dark. It smells quite cloying, prominent, and heavy, perhaps a little mysterious and it def makes a statement. It's a very mature 40+(maybe even older, im 42 and i might not be mature enough for this or perhaps as a winter daytime/evening fragance) feminine floral classy scent. I sprayed on 4 sprays and that was definitely too much(little bit headache), the whole house smells like this, and after wearing this for 5 hours, it's still going strong. I can def see this on like a gothic grandma or very outspoken eccentric artsy older lady. Maybe Emaan by Lattafa is like the very soft sister of this...I love how it's different, the vanilla in it is quite sexy somehow, and think with less sprays i can make this work. Would not recommend to blind buy this, unless you are a more mature, big violet mixed with vanilla, lover.

EDIT 31. Jan 2026: thisd has definitely changed. It still has the grape soda opening, but then it changes to something like a mix of Parisienne and Delina Exclusif. It's definitely less cloying than Delina Exclusif, with a grape-violet kind of note instead of lychee. If you like Delina Exclusif and Parisienne, you would likely enjoy this one too. It may be a little bit juvenile (my kindergartener and her friends really liked this one), but I really enjoy that it doesn't have a bitter note that Delina Exclusif gets on me. BTW, the main pictue doesn't do the cap of this any justice. This perfume has a really beautiful, marbled cap. 14. July 2025: I wanted grape soda, and that's exactly what this is. Sweet, gooey grape soda. Or grape cotton candy. It reminds me of Parisienne, but it's definitely not a dupe. Parisienne HAS this grape soda note, but it has many other notes as well that are more prominent. This is actually more similar to Insolence EDP, in the stacked, dark purple bottle. This is straight-up that grape note, linear. I definitely don't smell any vanilla, and no violet either. If they are there, they're blended in completely into one note. BTW, pairs well with Molecule 01+ Iris, although it's a completely different price range.

I first got Andaleeb Floral, there's no page for it yet, but that smelled like pickles to me... What I wanted was a suggary, violet, purple fairy vibe. And this is almost that, but like the cool older sister that maybe lives in a Victorian house instead of the forest. It's a GRAPE CANDY POWDER BOMB! With violet and rose undertones. Some people may find it cloying, I enjoy it for the right day/occasion. I think it's more "goth" than fairy.

Just got this yesterday, it’s already blossomed a lot in 24 hours and I can already tell this will be love. Not my usual scent profile that I typically gravitate toward, but something in me was craving a purple candy/violet/very sweet grape juice, kind of fragrance. This is just exactly that. So sweet, with something almost akin to tartness but not quite. Powdery, cloying in the best kind of way, its scent does indeed match the color of the bottle. This is the color dark purple (but not too dark) with some sparkly brightness to it. This somehow feels very very cold in my nose and throat. I can’t wait to see what this smells like in a few months. Will update after it sits awhile if I remember.

This is a very fruity fragrance despite no fruit notes being mentioned. It's quite sweet too, and there’s definitely a woody ambery base note in there, perhaps a touch of leather or suede. It’s growing on me.

I smell a very like dark fruits, no vanilla at all. Just straight headache strong dark fruits which is not my type at all. I'm smelled before seen so sillage and projection are huge. I sprayed twice: once in my wrist then transferred it to the other wrist wirhout rubbing ofc, put my wrists on my neck sides. I was putting the least I can because it gives me headache and suffocates me, the other spray was on my thigh and transferred it to the other one. My husband got home 1 hour later and said from the door "you put on lareib" I like it a veeery little bit after the dry down but too strong even though I like beast mode fragrances but it being too fruity us a no for me. NOT A BLIND BUY SAFE please smell before buying. Btw it's been macerating for 8 months now.

I might change my opinion later, but for now, this smells "grandmotherly" It gives me old times perfume. It's good though, but definitely for the older-older crew. I'll come in a few weeks to edit if there's any change.

Just received this in the mail. Right out of the box it smells really nice like grape candy. I can't wait until it has time to macerate.

very grape forward smelling, not my favorite but if you love grape candy you will love this.
