  • After buying many of the Milestone, Camara, Mirada, and other affordable Middle Eastern perfumes from the rack stores, I've compiled a list of the ones that ACTUALLY smell good and are worth the price. While not too much is riding on the affordable cost, these are my top 10 favorites!

    In my opinion Milestone is the best overall clone house taking everything into consideration. The stuff showing up at Rack Stores is just a small percentage of what they make. I’ve gotten over 20 different ones off TikTok shop. They got duped of Carolina Herrera & Dior Private Niches. They do all the memo’s and got like 6 Clive Christians with crowns which are like $300-$500 Fragrances. They got Fendi, Thameen and even Laliques. Most I got around $13 in full box presentation which is amazing. 2024 will be the year of Milestone which is the same as EMPER, Camara and Mirada. They run under these different companies so it’s harder to find them and sue them.

    I bought Tuscany Leather and King Fabulous for 14.99 each at Marshall’s and I’m genuinely impressed with both. They are not as complex or dense as a Tom Ford fragrance, but they small wonderful. The Tuscany Leather is a very simple sweet leather fragrance. The King fabulous has a massive blast of sweet iris in the opening that will remind you of Dior Pour Homme Intense. Powdery green dry down with a subtle leather backbone.

    1st things 1st, awesome video kid. Been watching a few over the last few days and now I'm a subscriber. For any1 who's on the fence on whether or not this clone brand is worth a look. Let me add, Milestone is definitely legit and everything he said in this video is truth. I used to dismiss clones without a thought but that's because they were always cheap POS and should've been dollar store frags only. Now there are multiple respectable clone companies and milestone is the new "it brand" on the block. I have Red Cherry, ambre leather, Tuscany leather, oud woody, black insenso, desert oud and mouj intimate. They're all legit, from the presentation to the atomizer to the scent. I want more though so I'm gonna keep on searching so keep the videos coming brother 🤘🏼

    • @commonscentsreviews

It has like a grape soda type feel to it. But I did pick up one called "Big Intense bottled for men" by milestone. By the name and bottle you would know who they are cloning. It smells amazing

    Middle eastern perfumes use rawer and more natural materials than the American and European colognes that we pay big bucks for . Most of these colognes u showed say made in UAE 🇦🇪 on the bottom of the fragrance. The American dollar is worth so much in Dubai that why we get them for so cheap even cheaper in rack stores.

My rack stores get trucks everyday but Sunday’s. Your right about asking for $$ off. If it’s got cut marks, missing lids or damaged some how they will knock it off.
