Hayaati

I've been wearing this a few days now to really get a feel for it after buying it 2 months ago and leaving it to steep/macerate. I liked it a lot after first opening spray but its even better now. Its filled out and more balanced now. A warm citrus woody slightly enigmatic scent, rich but not too screechy particularly with an average to low projection. longevity is absolutely excellent. I like it a lot more on the smoky bergamot drydown than the sharp minty zesty lemon opening. Usually i really don't like sharp zesty lemon citrus on anything except floor cleaner or washing up liquid but this one i inexplicably like a whole lot. Its a fresh scent but not a freshie exactly, its more than simply that. This smells like a lemon grove or mint plantation in Africa with some spicy depth to balance it away from just being another zesty fresh. The tree bark smell is there with a constant accompaniment to consistent citrus and faint apple or pear. I really don't detect or feel cinnamon anywhere. Its simple and not a multi faceted scent, yet its one that has a couple of different moods that keep it interesting as the hours go by wearing it. When i woke up this morning it had grown stronger and woodier overnight and it was a beautiful scent to wake up to. an unexpected pleasure. a chorus of woody zesty spices with barely ahint of lemon remaining. Just gorgeous actually and i couldn't stop sniffing it. Its really one thats grown on me and i'll be wearing this more over the next few days because i'm getting addicted to it. For the price this is fantastic. I recommend this for all age groups and i would say a lot of women could confidently wear this too. Haayati is basically the only lemon dominant scent i have ever liked, ever. I guess that says everything. 8/10 for me

Wow..."PR - Invictus" for $14...and no disgusting "Marine Notes". Super strong and lasts all day and night long... Not bad...not bad at all. Just don't spray it anywhere near your head and you won't choke yourself out. UPDATE: Whoooooaaa....the drydown on this is AMAZING!! It's almost a suede, leathery, fruity and invictus-like combination. This is far superior!! AND NO WATERY NOTES!! Finally...I have the version of "Invictus" that I actually like! EDIT: After a full days wear, I can honestly say that this frag ROCKS!! The opening is so fresh and fruity!! Layered with my favorite vanilla frags I can add just the right amount of creaminess and booziness to the fragrance aura for the duration of the wear of it! Then...the drydown....THE DRYDOWN!!! This frag has the most succulently creamy and smooth drydown...and I KNOW that I've smelled this before!!! It's either Amberwood, Suede or Cashmeran...or some kind of combo of two...but it is absolutely AMAZING!! I've never smelled a creamy-fruity-woody-smoothsuede drydown phase combo in ANY fragrance before!! I can honestly say that this is looking like my de-facto "Freshie" fragrance for the spring/summer when I'm not wearing "After Effect" or "King". "Allure Homme Sport", "BDC-Parfum", "Armani - Diamonds Black Carat"...they're all taking a backseat to this frag. I am sooooo glad that I took a chance on this fragrance, LATTAFA knocked this one outta the ballpark!!!

Honestly, very surprised this fragrance has gone by unnoticed by all the social media gurus. This fragrance has amazing price-performance (got it for around 12 Euro) and it has the Invictus DNA when it dries down, but without the aquatic notes. I guess the JPG Ultra Male comparisons come because of the sweet opening, but nothing like it after the dry down. The opening is a bit hard, maybe very sweet, thus marketed as unisex, but afterwards you get an improved Invictus in my opinion. It's certainly a fragrance for men. Doesn't come off as synthetic in any way, actually surprised you can get this fragrance at such a great price. I would say it is for younger men and it's a massive compliment getter - great uninvasive projection with a small scent trail, my girlfriend and female colleagues fell in love with it, and you can smell it even after 8h (but probably different for every skin type). 4-5 sprays sort you out for the day. Very versatile, you keep it playful but classy and can easily wear this daily to school or work, maybe a date night in the summer. For this price, fragrances don't get better than this. Just make sure you buy from a reputable seller. 10/10 from me.

Smells good to me. It’s becoming my favorite cheapy next to Ramz Especially considering it was only $13.00. I’ll probably wear this into warm October quite often until it’s time for tobacco and booze. Well and this Boss elixir. I need to put that down until it cools off some. This Hayaati is Nice and strong on the opening . I love it , and when I get told I smell like a French Whore it means I can use less and Make it last. But it really is non offensive. The strong smell is mostly In the air and calms down on the skin. Reminds me of invictus or Hawas . I think I like it better than Hawas. Because it seems to have a bigger sent bubble. At least in the beginning. This one is more thick than Hawas More creamy, More Vanilla and more powdery. Smells more complex a darker invictus dna. I just got this in today . Only reason I bought this is because I needed to spend $3.00 more for free shipping. Shipping at $10.00. Glad I spotted it. I got some good deals today. good cheapie !!

Was quite disappointed at first when I bought it, saw some good reviews about it having an invictus DNA type of scent. When I first tried it I was hit with the most toxic smelling synthetic bergamot smell. It did smell quite nice in the drydown and in the air but it was awful at first. I saw some "macerating" tips and tried it out, left it for about 3-4 weeks and then came back to try it. Again, I was hit with a bergamot and apple scent, but this time way less synthetic and quite pleasant. It had a nice bubblegummy sweetness which complimented the bergamot/apple smell quite nicely. The drydrown was also very nice, a nice sweetened musky vanilla scent that lasted about 8-9 hours on skin and all day on clothes. I wouldn't recommend blind buying because of its syntheticness. Otherwise, Its a great fragrance and you get much more than what you pay for (about £15). I do advise to let it macerate before making any bold statements about it though.
