Affection

I put this on before work and was still (if very lightly) bubbled in it 10 hours later, so I guess that's saying something. That's on skin. I've had the bottle for a few months, but it came already wearable (no maturation/oxidation period needed) and I think it lasted about 7 hours then. At 10 hours in, this turns to a vanilla skin scent, but still detectable, just no bubble. The smell hasn't really changed since I got it; it's very creamy and glancing at the reviews, nah, that's about right. I do get pistachio ice cream from it and lots of milky vanilla. Hazelnut, not so much, but pistachio, yes. I like it in any weather, but more so if it's not melting out. It's actually really pleasant when it's cold as well. For the price, I think this is fantastic, and my literal only bone to pick is that the bottle isn't very pretty; the design isn't horrible, but it does have that "Lattafa 3.0" weird painted look they've been going for with some of their newer releases in the pride/etc line. I'm not a fan, but it's also not actually that important to me. I personally feel like this scent is a bit more friendly to generous spraying-- not that you should or need to, but that in somewhat higher concentrations, it's still fairly nice. That's partially a taste thing though. I haven't needed or particularly wanted to apply this much to fabric, but it does seem somewhat clear, so I think it'd be fairly safe for garments. This is also a scent where I don't think it would matter that much if it was on skin; a little warmth is good, but I don't think it would ruin it to be worn on clothes, basically. I'll update if I apply to my arm warmers, but my guess is that based on skin longevity, there's no way it wouldn't last at least a day or two, and probably a bit more. The staying power did improve a bit over time (~7h to ~10h with detectable sillage), but like I said, it was also in decent shape when I got it. Anyway, I don't think there's a bad time or season to wear this. It's not going to float everyone's boat, but my wearing experience is that it's received pretty warmly, and it's a comforting scent for me. Today was pretty chaotic and moderately frustrating, but having a very stable bubble of this was something pleasant to stay grounded with. Solid love for me; not a full-on favorite but definitely in the rebuy tier, and at some point I do want to get a backup bottle. I'd be bummed out if they stopped making this one.

I have tested it in perfume store because I was heard that this is a dupe of "Yum Pistachio Gelato | 33 Kayali", I didn't test "Yum Pistachio Gelato | 33 Kayali" but this fragrance very similar to the description of the "Yum Pistachio Gelato | 33 Kayali". This perfume is sweety vanilla lactonic nutty seems like you are eating vanilla ice cream with nuts. After dry down the most notable notes are vanilla, Lactones, Tonka bean, pistachio, Hazelnut shell which give a little of bitter taste not annoying or spoiling this ice sweety fragrance. Flowers nonoticable for me and the top notes I felt a little of citrusy. I think this fragrance is fresh soft sweety and very suitable to be blind buy or easy to wear if you like perfumes similar to be like linear fragrances in general. Synthetic fragrance here is a nonoticable, In General I advise anyone going to buy any of Lattafa perfumes to macerate it from 2 - 3 mothes then start to use it, beacause the maceration make the pefrume ingrediants to be harmonizes together. This fragrance suitable to wear it at night or during the day, in summer or spring seasons. It lasts along time. I 'am very intresting of this perfume and like to own this perfume in the next summer season. لقد جربته في متجر العطور لأنني سمعت أن هذا هو تقليد "يم بستاشيو جيلاتو، كيالي 33"، لم أجرب "يم بستاشيو جيلاتو، كيالي 33" ولكن هذا العطر مشابه جدًا لوصف "يم بستاشيو جيلاتو، كيالي 33". هذا العطر حلو بنكهة الفانيليا واللاكتون والمكسرات يبدو وكأنك تأكل آيس كريم بالفانيليا مع المكسرات. بعد جفاف العطر في القاعدة النوتات الأبرز هي الفانيليا واللاكتونات وفول التونكا والفستق الحلبي وقشر البندق والتي تعطي القليل من الطعم المر غير المزعج أو المفسد لهذه الرائح الحلوة الباردة. الزهور هنا غير ملحوظة بالنسبة لي وفي النوتات العليا شعرت بقليل من الحمضيات. أعتقد أن هذا العطر منعش وناعم وحلو ومناسب جدًا للشراء الأعمى أو ليكون سهل الارتداء إذا كنت تحب العطور المشابهة للعطور الخطية بشكل عام. الرائحة الصناعية هنا غير ملحوظة، بشكل عام أنصح أي شخص ينوي شراء أي من عطور لطافة أن يعتقه لمدة 2 - 3 أشهر ثم يبدأ في استخدامه، لأن التعتيق يجعل مكونات العطر أكثر تناغماً معًا. هذا العطر مناسب لارتدائه في الليل أو أثناء النهار، في فصلي الصيف أو الربيع. يدوم لفترة طويلة، أنا مهتمة جدًا بهذه الرائحة وأرغب في امتلاكها في موسم الصيف القادم.

This has been a bit of a journey so if this is long, either skip or enjoy the story! I remember when YPG was released and there was so much controversy regarding it, did not meet expectations, wasn't gourmand enough, etc. I enjoy reading and listening to reviews (and honestly, did not have the funds to purchase even though the notes were so intriguing to me!). Fast forward to this summer, went to Ulta during their sale and picked up the new Aurora Nights scrub and body spray from TreeHut. Reading the notes I thought, hmm, pistachio and toasted marshmallow, sounds good. At first, I was really disappointed, it was so fresh? But also, smelled like powder sugar coated marshmallow? It really grew on me, I was using that body spray all the time! (As a note to anyone who may want to try it, it is nice but it is a 'moisturizing' spray with no alcohol, longevity is abysmal) The more I used it, the more I liked it. To my nose and on my skin it felt like a more fresh take on SDJ '62 which is my go to summertime scent. After realizing that this is the TreeHut version of YPG I had to have it! I still have yet to try out the OG YPG, at this time cost is still an issue but I have added it to my wishlist! Now, on to Affection! I actually really, like this scent, straight out of the box! It is fresh, but not sharp. To my nose it has a subtly nuttiness, tbh I had hoped for more pistachio but maybe, like most Arabians, mine just needs to settle. It has a marshmallow note, but to me it is more like a powder sugar dusted marshmallow, not toasted, where the sugar is there but not intense. It dries down on my skin like a light, bergamot infused powdered sugar coated jumbo marshmallow with a hint of warm, nuttiness. At this point the longevity is about 4 hours before becoming a close skin scent. I am using the TreeHut scrub and mist as layering tools to see if that helps longevity. Today, I used a body cream that simulates the ever popular Bum Bum cream and then Affection on top, the two combined are just lovely! I actually received two compliments today on the combo. I really love this scent and will be excited to see if it changes in the coming months, will update if so!

Tl;Dr: I can’t stop smelling my arm. It makes me feel cozy and happy. Good vibes. Delish. The fragrance unfolds like a sensory journey, opening with an exhilarating burst of zesty pistachio gelato. It's not the dense creaminess of ice cream, but rather the bright, effervescent lightness of a sherbet dancing on your senses. As it settles, a mesmerizing transformation occurs - the scent evolves into a luxurious, lactonic embrace of pistachio ice cream. Rich, velvety vanilla notes intertwine with the nutty pistachio, creating a comforting aroma that wraps around you like a cashmere blanket. There's an ineffable quality to it - a whisper of nostalgia that tugs at the heartstrings, evoking memories of carefree days, but not in a childish way. Just... comforting. Each inhale is a small reverie, transporting you to a place of warmth and contentment. It's more than just a fragrance; it's an olfactory time machine, conjuring feelings of joy and innocence with every lingering note.

When I first purchased and sprayed Lattafa's Affection, my first reaction was "meh". All I was smelled was a green pistachio. Per the fragrance gurus, I let off a few sprays and let the fragrance steep. A month later, I am revisiting it and wow, I am in love! I am finally experiencing all the sweet and creamy notes: vanilla, tonka bean and lactones! Affection is often compared to Yum Pistachio Gelato and Khair Pistachio. Yes, I agree with the comparisons. However, with Affection, after letting it sit for a month, I detect an amazing sugary note for the Gourmand Girlies! It's like vanilla cotton candy! I own lots of gourmand fragrances including Yum Pistachio Gelato and Khair Pistachio. Out the bottle and on first spray, both of those fragrances are ready to wear while this one did need to steep. But I am happy to have it in my collection.

Pistachio, hazelnut, lactonic, but also a little soapy 🤔 I like this way more than Khadlaj Trust, as that one is similar to this at some point, but smells licorice on me. I think this will need to stand and macerate for quite some time before I know how it will end up being. I'm a little on the fence about the soapy quality of it though - it makes it smells a bit like... maybe even surface cleaning wipes. Or as person above said: "mens shavings foam". I hope that note goes away with time, because aside from that, this smells really pleasant to me. Edit: the more I wear it, the faster the soapiness goes away, and I'm left with a honeyed (the sweetness is very mild) nutty-milky vanilla. I can smell the flowers slightly in the background. It smells very natural and super cozy! This is the first lactonic fragrance I've ever loved :D

Got a decant, love it, had to buy my full sized bottle, just did. I never tried Pistacchio Yum but 9.5 out of 10 people say it's a decent dupe so... alright! I loved this one despite being a real clone or not because the scent is amazing. Very comforting, not cloying at all, I don't know if someone agrees with me but it actually gives me clean girl vibes because it's nutty but it's also fresh and it's a little bit of that cleanness smell that you get from a good fabric softner, let's say it's a special creamy lactonic edition. Yeah, it's not long lasting but tbh i'm not the best sample of human skin to longevity since even the long lasting fragrances don't stay on me for that long and that's a bummer, so I'm not the best to judge. Really good day to day fragrance, I expect to use it a lot!

4/28/24 Just arrived from Amazon. Couldn't wait to give it a spray. I blind bought it. As I was opening the box, I did not remember what the notes were. I sprayed. Hmmmmm. Just for good measure, I sprayed about 7-8 bursts into the box. I re-sprayed on my skin. Hmmmmm. I don't love it. I don't even like it. It's just OK. Once I read the notes, I was tickled as it's often compared to Yum Pistachio, which I own and LOVE. This, Day 1 Spray, bears ZERO resemblance to Yum Pistachio. It may have potential once it ages a few weeks and I will come back to update in a month. But for now, all I smell is something that smells like APPLE CIDER VINEGAR, which I like, but NOT as a wearable. The good side: Beautiful Box. Beautiful Packaging. Beautiful Price! That's it for now. I'll be back. . .

I'm so obsessed with this. It's delicious. I've never smelled the OG Kayali it's duping, but it has a similar scent profile to a scent that I love: Donna Born in Roma Green Stravaganza. It's a sugar bomb but it does have a green quality, and a slightly airy saltiness that reminds me of eating pistachios. I think it has similar vibes to Cloud from Ariana Grande, but they're not the same scent. The vanilla is very strong at the dry down and it gives me Pink Sugar vibes at that point. As someone who loves extremely sweet fragrances, this is perfect. The sillage and longevity are amazing. Also, I can't detect much of a difference between this and Khair Pistachio. I want to say this one may be a bit longer lasting, but there's not enough of a difference to make a huge difference.

I am particularly fond of this fragrance. While Kayali may be overly sweet for my taste preferences, this fragrance offers a refreshing take on the gourmand pistachio scent. It is both sweet and creamy, with a delightful aroma that I would love to envelop myself in. The addition of hazelnut complements the pistachio notes, elevating the nuttiness of the fragrance. It is akin to a warm embrace that lingers on my skin for hours. Gourmand fragrances tend to suit my body chemistry, and this one has proven to be exceptionally long-lasting, lasting over 10 hours on me. However, it is important to note that the lactones can become unpleasant when over-sprayed, so avoid doing that. Overall, this fragrance is more affordable than its inspiration, making it my preferred choice.

Let it mature!!! That sharp opening, tones right down after a few weeks. Almost instantly settles down into a lovely creamy/milky, nutty scent now, with a slight hint of a cool/refreshing aspect to it. That sharp opening is now more in the background as that cooling/refreshing aspect I mention. Before it matured, it was far too sharp for my nose aswell. So I understand why people say what they say. Now I love it, so does the Mrs. She loved it from the start, but it had to sit for me. In my opinion it's very unisex after maturation. Before that, the sharp floral/cool opening made it 100% lean more feminine, and I almost questioned my purchase😂 100% sit tight on it and wait. It's amazing after that. Both genders can wear easily imo. Now it's one of my favourites.

This perfume smells soooooo good! Omg, I'm in love with the notes in this fragrance. I get a lot of pistachio and vanilla, especially at the beginning of it being sprayed. Once it settles, you get this milky, sweetness out of it, which I love. I will say that it didn't last the longest for me, only about 3-4 hours, but if you're not someone who is worried about that, the scent itself will have you going back to this. I'm seeing more of a female wearing this than a man because even though there's a little bit of boldness, the vanilla and the sweeter parts of this fragrance pops out a little bit more, and some men may not like that. Amazing perfume for the price and definitely one of my favorites!

It was one of my first Arab fragrances, and a blind buy at that. I found many youtubers speak highly of it so I decided to order it. At first I was so put off by the fragrance. It was screechy, smelled like a toilet air freshener, not complex at all - a complete let down. But I decided to give it a chance so I let it macerate for 2 months in the dark and boy did it help. The smell became complex, lactonic, nutty. There is a hint of black current leaves at the beginning, so it feels green but then all I can smell is this gourmandy lactonic heaven. Highly recommend it. Never tried yum pistacchio gelato but now I don't even feel like it. An easy 10/10, perfect for everyday cold weather.

This is apparently a clone of Yum Pistachio Gelato, which I know of but haven’t smelled. This is delicious, dreamy and delightful! Opens very nutty, sweet and creamy with pistachios and hazelnuts, sharpened with a blackcurrant note. It then develops into a gorgeous fruity, floral creamy confection that feels so perfectly balanced without ever becoming cloying or overly sweet. I’m not always a fan of gourmands but this is to me among the best in its class. It’s a very gentle, comforting, cosy vibe, like a soft caress; the fragrance somehow embodies its name - Affection. I love it! Will really enjoy indulging in this sweet treat throughout the winter.

Smells just like Yum Pistachio Gelato from Kayali. Not overly sweet, a great gourmand for the summer time IMO. I don't get the vanilla right away, but as you let it sit on the skin, it turns much sweeter, then fades out into a very nice clean scent. Really great longevity, about 10 or so hours on one spray on the wrist. If you liked YPG from Kayali, you'll love this and for a fraction of the cost too. As a sidenote, I thought the bottle was a little weird and out of sync with the scent haha. Not that it matters much at all, but the colors and font choices threw me for a loop for sure. Not what I'd choose for the scent that's for sure.

Just received this today (don’t you LOVE fragrance delivery day???) as a blind buy. It’s been about 20mins since I sprayed on arms and neck and, so far, very nice! Better than YPG which smells like freshly unboxed clean scented diapers. Affection is a yummy, enveloping nutty gourmand; fun, fluffy and lactonic. More of a daytime vibe. I look forward to experimenting with layering combos, e.g. Liam Grey, Lactea Divina, Nebras. Yara. I also look forward to the maturation process doing its thing. Very happy with this blind buy. UPDATE: It passed the pyjama test. Woke up to creamy, cosy dry-down. I’m in love.

I really like this perfume! I have the little travel size Yum Pistachio Gelato and I really wanted to try one of the inspirations. Affection by Lattafa was the cheapest one I found. I chose it because the reviews said it smelled creamier and it definitely does. But the main difference I found was that YPG smells COLD. Yes, cold. and affection doesn’t, it’s cozier. I like them both and enjoy them both. I was afraid I would have to wait a few months for my bottle to smell good but I liked it since the first spray. I can also detect the nuttiness of the fragrance. To me it doesn’t smell like soap at all.

I really love this fragrance.. vanilla, pistachio, lactonic.. the Kayali gives me an instant migraine. There is something in that, that does not agree with me at all. But this.. I was hesitant to buy, but for the cost, was a no brainer. And gosh this is really good. I layer this with Escapade Gourmand and I cannot stop smelling myself. It's like being smooshed by a warmed vanilla scroll with creamy pistachio in the middle. I feel like this is date night worthy, it's just sweet and soft and you want to sink into it forever and watch your troubles wander by... all the ouffffs!

Creamy pistachio with hazelnut and pleasant, warm season friendly vanilla sweetness. I've got Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato and I find the Affection's drydown very similar to it. It's more creamy and maybe a bit less sweet. The performance of Lattafa's dupe is better though, Kayali simply does not compare here. I like to layer them both together to get the best of both worlds. Great for spring and summer, but will be great in the winter too when layered with something heavier/creamier. It'd smell great on a man too. Can't beat the price for this. I'll definitely repurchase.

I do wonder if the reviews that say this smells nothing like Kayali Yum Pistachio have ever truthfully smelled both fragrances. They are nearly identical. People who are familiar will assume you’re wearing KYP when you wear this. I actually prefer Affection. It’s smoother and less synthetic with better performance. I pair it with BnBW Sweetheart Cherry and it’s just gorgeous and a compliment magnet. The bottle is not my fave by any means, but the black bottle will help it keep longer. It’s a beautiful frag imo, and great for floral or gourmand lovers simultaneously.

If you love Kayali YPG this is for you. I had a sample of YPG from the Kayali discovery layering set and I loved it and used it up so fast, but couldn't justify spending the money to buy a full size at this time. I decided to try this dupe in the meantime and dude it is IDENTICAL. I am so happy I tried this out because now I can very affordably have this scent profile in my collection and live my best pistachio life. This layers amazingly with EOS pistachio lotion and SDJ cheirosa 62 to last all day and smell super consistently gourmand and nutty.

After a year in my fragrance wardrobe, it has developed into a beautiful, soft and cozy scent. The longevity, sillage, and projection are quite noticeable for being such a softer fragrance. This is a "curl up on the couch with a good book" kind of perfume. It does remind me of YP, but it's a tad lighter on the wear. To me, this is a linear scent, but whenever I first acquired my bottle, it wasn't pleasant. It does need a month or two to mature, but it's worth the $20 price tag. Longevity- 8+ hours Sillage- Moderate Projection- 2-4ft

Quickly became my most worn fragrance. It smells so comforting and soft. Truly smells like pistachio ice cream and dries down to a lactonic vanilla. It’s not overly gourmand but it is sweet. When I wear this, I feel like there’s a warm cashmere sweater wrapped around me. The longevity is eternal on clothes but the projection is intimate. The first spray out of the bottle was pretty sharp, but after a few months it became smooth and creamy. Best suited for fall and autumn. I have a backup bottle as I don’t want to be without it.

Absolutely lovely and gorgeous perfume. The creamy lactonic notes mingle beautifully with the pistachio and berry notes to create a very dessert-like aroma. The scent is absolutely luxurious and warm, it wraps you up like a blanket. The scent is powerful but not necessarily overwhelming, only two sprays and some of the folks I know could immediately smell it from a few feet away. For me this fragrance is amazing and it has a very comforting vibe, perfect for a chilly, rainy fall day, while still smelling classy.

Wow what a gem! I liked Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato in store and following the reviews on here, I decided to get Affection for under £20 instead of forking out £100 for the OG. I have no regrets, to me this smells exactly the same as the Kayali one. It’s such a lovely comforting smell. Might be my new fave now. It opens with a creamy pistachio sweetness, wrapped in milky, comforting notes that make it feel both cozy and indulgent. It even has the cold ice chill feeling like the OG.

Bought this 2 weeks ago off eBay, it took the seller too long to ship so they gave me a refund but still shipped me the fragrance, essentially making this free for me. I must say, I was impressed by the first sprays, I had my doubts but it is very youthful, sweet, delectable, inoffensive, unique, and pleasing. I would very much recommend this gourmand scent for anyone, it does lean feminine but I feel as if anyone who is clean can pull this off, especially in the winter. Lattafa, you have earned my loyalty.

This is a stronger version of Yum Pistachio Gelato. Also, better opening, smoother, less vibe of that industrial detergent and overall more pleasant. On dry down they are EXACTLY the same, it was hard for me to figure out which was the clone and the original (tested side by side thanks to a decant of YPG). Absolutely recommended, for 24€ this a steal, well done Lattafa. Also, this and Khair Pistachio by Paris Corner are exactly the same, Affection is just a bit more stronger on my skin.

I might be biased as i love these type of DNAs but i looove it!!! I don't think it's super close to the kayali more like 75% and only in the opening. But just an opening doesn't make a fragrance same with another... This one goes milky lactonic creamy after the fresh opening... I'd say this is a bit more mature than the juvenile kayali. ldk i really love it!!! Performance wise it is decent. The projection is not massive but the longevity is there!!! Overall 9/10 for me!!!

A lot of pistachio, hazelnut and milk. Opens up quite soapy - a little bit like a slightly bitter soap bar, but that disappears in about half an hour. Not very sweet. Better than Khair Pistachio, which is very sharp and soapy on top of that, and it stays like that for a long time. This one is much softer. The way I love to wear this is paired with a Babycat-type perfume. It gives it a very complementary non-sweet vanilla note and removes the soapiness instantly.

This perfume was a truly lovely surprise. It’s not overly sweet, which makes it easy to wear and surprisingly elegant. To me, it smells like the woody pistachio and hazelnut accord, giving the scent a soft nuttiness that feels creamy and cozy rather than gourmand-heavy. I see raspberry being listed, but I don’t personally smell it. As it dries down, Affection becomes even more addictive with a smooth, comforting vanilla that ties everything together beautifully.

LOVE this so much! Smells almost identical to Kayali's Yum Gelato for HALF the price. This lasts a long time as well. I like that this scent isn't fully gourmand but is semi fresh and clean smelling. You can always amp up the gourmand if you wanted to. This layers beautifully with BBW Sweetheart Cherry, as well as Mont Blanc Signature. Only thing is that the bottle isn't the most beautiful. But at least it's opaque and will keep the sunlight out.

PLEASE try it if you're looking for a dupe! I was running low on my Kayali, and it had just macerated into that like deliciously fresh sweet nuttiness we love...ordered this and sprayed them side by side they are fraternal TWINS dude. there's a slightly milky sweetness coming from lataffa that isn't as strong in the Kayali, but you won't be disappointed. Both sweet, nutty, fresh, and pair soooo well with the sand + fog pistachio dream oil.

This fragrance is very similar to Yum Pistachio, but better imo because it lasts longer, does not have a soapy undertone, is les floral and more gourmand, more pistachio-icecream-like. Another inspiration is Paris Corner Khair Pistachio, which has the same lasting power as Affection, but is not as creamy. You can smell Affection on yourself for good 7 hours, with moderate projection.

I love love love this! Thats all I can say for now. Edit: I have had this for a month now and I still can’t get enough of it. This is a creamy pistachio desert with lots of vanilla, and somehow despite that, it is not cloying in the heat. (I don’t get any cold ice-cream vibes from it though.) Edit 2: does anybody else feel like this has some resemblance to hypnotic poison?

Smooth, delicious, fresh and sweet. It's not just a gourmand you can get away with in the summer, it's a summer gourmand. Not cloying to my nose. I reeeeeeally enjoy this. Not that it matters much since I keep my fragrances in a closet, but... Whose idea was this bottle? Heavy and sturdy, yes. Pretty, no. The font reminds me of an early 2000's powerpoint presentation.

I haven't smelled the Kayali one, so I can't compare. I really love this scent, it's so sweet and nutty and a bit woody. The vanilla is one of the best I've smelled and I love how creamy and powdery it also is. I use it as a nighttime scent if I'm in a bad mood or a daytime scent if it's a slow grey day. I love how soft it is, the drydown vanilla is the most amazing.

I absolutely loved it! I previously tested Kayali Yum Pistachio, but found it overwhelmingly sweet and hard to wear for a full day. In contrast, Affection has a wonderfully clean and comforting dry down. It’s quite similar to Khair Pistachio, with one notable difference: Khair Pistachio has a fresher, more open finish, while Affection leans towards a sweeter ending.

This fragrance probably needs to mature, so for now it's only a like. It really is creamier and more lactonic than Khair Pistachio, however I still prefer KP, even with its slight sharpness. I get much more pistachio and sweetness in KP, and it projects much more and lasts much longer than Affection. As it is a scent profile I love, I am still happy to own both!

I like this one a lot! It's pretty. Sorta fresh clean and light. Airy. You could wear this anywhere, anytime. I had a dr appt today and the med assistant came running out to say "Someone smells so amazing." And everyone looked at me. Haha. 3 sprays and it was 2 hours afterwards. So it projects but lasts maybe 4 hours. Very easy to like.

As it dried down, it became creamy, lactonic and deliciously nutty. Mainly it smells like pistachio, hazelnut and vanilla. But it’s not sweet and I don’t see how that can be a problem. And It didn’t smell soapy as some commenters mentioned.10/10 would recommend. @My world of perfumes comment basically sums up the experience.

I am absolutely in love with Kayali yum pistachio gelato and I can honestly give Lataffa 5 stars for this fregnance. 99% accuracy to Kayali in my opinion better than Khair. Lasting power isnt enormous but definitely increasing, longer i have it it gets better 3-4 h easily at the moment before I have a need to reapply.

Horrible before it dries down properly. I wish I could just skip right to the good part where it becomes creamy and nutty, at which point it is lovely. Takes about half an hour to get there, so this is not a "spray and go" kind of perfume. I do really like it... but I really dislike the initial half hour.

Affection is so good! I wear this summer nights New Orleans. Strong cream smell; sweet creamy; slight ambery cream. Sharp green from lily valley and clean floral smell; metalic clean. Green floral clean remain distinct and covered by creaminess which balance out. Raspberry on sweet creamy green stem.

Absolutely love this one. Pleasantly surprised with its performance. The sillage is strong initially then becomes moderate. Clean soapy opening then the pistachio nuttiness comes in with the creamy notes. I think it could be worn all year round and it’s a dressing up scent. Gorgeous fragrance 🥰

I think this frag is PERFECTLY unisex. This grown a$$ man will be wearing it this spring. Amazing how ppl can have COMPLETELY different opinions... this person below is claiming it smells "exactly" like old soapy shaving cream... wow. I couldn't possibly disagree more.

it's nice. I never tried Kayali's and can't compare, but I was so curious to try this one. It's really pistachio gelatto, it's creamy and beautiful. Also, it's kinda shampooey or maybe sunscreeney (like tanning oil maybe, but I mean in a good way. it's pleasant)

This is my best favourite pistachio vanilla scents. It is beautiful and delicious and gives the most amazing nutty Nivea first spray with a more vanilla dry off. Unlike the other dupes to the Kayali OG this is not screechy and does not give me a headache.

Out of the 6 dupes of Yum Pistachio Gelato I’ve tried, I find this the closest to the original. It has the same airy, sweet quality. The performance is a touch stronger. Projection: 6.5/10 Longevity: 6.5/10 (4-5 hours) Overall Experience: 7/10

I have never been a pistachio ice cream lover, but, boy, I do love the pistachio fragrances! I have no idea, which is the best. I love Affection, I love Moonlight whisper by Zara and I love Pistachio Gelato by Kayali. I just want them all.

just leaving it here: affection + club de nuit imperiale is a combo layering from heaven <3 affection is delicious by itself and CDN imperiale can be screechy sometimes. affection completely takes that screechiness off. Amazing
