Fatima Pink

Okay first of all, I will not going to compare this to another brand of perfumes like Parfums de Marly Delina or Maison Alhambra Delilah. I know many people compare this to Delina by Parfums De Marly because this is claimed to be the dupe of it (even the bottle is showing that IT IS trying to look like PDM Delina). Let’s start with the box. The rose ornament inside the box made me clutched pearls I wasn’t even wearing. AND YOU CAN PLUCK THE ROSES AND USE THEM AS SOAPS TOO!? I can clearly see they offer a moment, presentation, experience and not only the perfume itself. I'm the kind of diva who keeps boxes because I like “aesthetics”, and trust me, this one’s a display piece. 10/10 for presentation. they better give the packaging designer a raise. Now, about then scent. I gotta be frank, I was never a rose girlie before this. So, when I first sprayed her, I was like, "Fatima, bbg, what is you doing?" 😭 She came out swinging with this sharp citrusy grapefruit slap combined with electrifiying rose scent that made me think of Uncle Hamza at the mosque, rocking his best Jumu’ah prayer perfume. This definitely wasn't what I signed up for. So I shelved her like a mother putting their child on a time out. then I gave her another chance after ignoring her for a couple weeks (call me a fragrance therapist, but I believe in second chances lol). At that moment, the citrus chilled out, the rose came softly like a blanket, and suddenly, she smelt elegant. I got notes of sophistication from the well blended rose and jasmine scent. I said it was well blended because the jasmine was there to lift, to elevate, to enrich the rose scent without over powering it. Fatima is not a love at first sniff for me. Give her a little time to get familiar with this fragrance. In fact, this is the first rose fragrance that made me turned from jasmine and white lily typa gal to rose typa gal. 9.5/10 for the scent. Just don’t judge her by the first spray. Be patient, give her time and let her bloom. 1000/10 pluckable flowers that can turn into soap was just genius 8/10 three days after spraying it on my clothes I can still smell the faint roses and musky scent 6/10 the projection was okay. There was nothing special. NOTE: I'm curious about the other variant, Zimaya Fatima Velvet Love. I tried looking for the information in Fragrantica, but I couldn't find it.🫤

Me encantó, hoy mismo lo probé y huele muy bien, no es un aroma maduro ni nada de eso, es muy floral, femenino y hasta podría decir sexy, lo que si lo recomiendo para alguien +20, pero si te gustan los perfumes muy florales y con aroma a rosas como a mí te va a encantar, al principio huele más cítrico pero después de un tiempo el aroma se va acentuando y huele a pura rosa, hasta casi parece a un perfume caro, me hace acordar mucho al aroma de un miss dior que viene el roll on, en un momento también lo sentí medio jabonoso, no sé por qué, pero no me parece una característica "mala", si para vos es un punto en contra entonces tenelo en cuenta, el almizcle en el perfume también es bueno y de la un toque polvoriento, no huele a un almizcle "barato" si los que tienen la nariz muy refinada me entienden, en mi país es verano hace un calor horrible pero en ningún momento el perfume tomó un olor desagradable ni mucho menos, siempre olió limpio y fresco, es muy versátil podrías usarlo para primera-verano, de día y porque no de noche para una salida casual, estoy teniendolo en cuenta para mí próxima compra, espero poder tenerlo pronto

Sweet rose, very feminine, slightly powdery, light. Reminds me a bit of Turkish Delight. Unashamedly princessy. The kind of girl who would wear this as her daily scent is probably under 30, wears a charm bracelet and tiny pearl earrings every day, and treats herself to a bouquet of peonies before going to have a millefeuille or almond croissant with a vanilla oat latte at a cosy café every once in a while. She wishes she had €260 for the real Delina, but for €40 this is a more than adequate substitute for a young woman with a love for all things feminine and sweet. The bottle is very similar to the real Delina bottle, except it has a patch of darker pink in the middle on which فَاطِمَة is written in stylised gold Arabic script. The bottle also comes beautifully packaged in a box with pink paper roses inside. Best worn during the day in Spring or Summer.

Lovely scent. 80-90% Delina I'd say . There's a barely perceptible green note that kind of bothers my nose in the beginning but it will probably even out after it macerates. Yes, arab perfumes really show their true colors if you give them a few months, I can say that from experience. The longevity is moderate i'd say , it doesn't last that much as Delina does but it's definitely worth it for a fraction of the price. It's also not as bright as Delina but very close yet. Projection is moderate also. A cheap dupe could never really be the same as the original which is like 300$ but the good part is - it doesn't smell cheap. If you love Delina but you don't wanna spend a fortune I'd say go for this !

When I sprayed Fatima for the first time, after unboxing her I was confused, she didn't smell like a rose at all she wasn't bad, but she was citrusy, nothing like what I expected. I was confused, it wasn't until she dried on my skin, that the stunning rose was revealed. A truly elegant and gorgeous fragrance, she is like the woman of your dreams, so gracefull and sophisticated. The rose is very pleasent and rich smell. It's not like the cheap rose smell or a rose marmalade donut, it smells like a garden rose from the Kings garden. For the price that she is, she is worth every penny and more. I love her, she changed me.
