Hi Adwoa, now I know why I'm not smelling the barn yard note as you in Empire Victor. I have an April 2024 batch and Simin Shaikh has had confirmation via Khadlaj that it was reformulated. I'm guessing yours is an earlier batch? Thought it would be useful for others to know. 😢
Khadlaj is making some exceptional fragrances. I have not tried any yet but after hearing you and Cee Chronicles talk about Empire Victor, I want to try that. ❤
Will love that you give them a try at least. Good stuff ❤️
Khadlaj,rue broca and zimaya, Afnan brand I am so impressed by the quality
Yes they definitely have some quality fragrances 👍😃
I'm quite impressed by the quality of khadlaj's fragrances.
Same here. Late to their sprays but am glad to get to know them
Best timing !!!! I was just looking for reviews on this collection.
Thank u !!!!
My pleasure 😊 ❤️
Thank you so much for this review Adwoa. I've had my eye on this collection for a while, I'm so glad you reviewed them 😁
My pleasure sis 😊
They are actually very well made
Thank you Gorgeous Adwoa thank you for your recommendations just ordered 2 of them looking forward to trying them. Thank you for your educative videos
You are so welcome Freda. I hope they work out for you and you get to enjoy them as much as I do 👍❤️
Khadlaj is quickly becoming my favorite ME brand. They make quality fragrances.
You look lovely Adwoa. 🌟🌟🌟
Thanks sis ❤
Late to their fragrances but so happy with them👍
Love the hair on you!!
Thank you!! ☺️❤️
Obaapa I’m back after the video with cee chronicles I own a few Khadlaj.. empire victor I will be picking this one up 😂 I love Ahmed Al magribi style of oud but Khadlaj oud is also very classy. I love December vanilla thank you👏🏾
I have been impressed with the few I got to try. Quality juices with great packaging 👍🔥
New house to me!!!! Love the design of the bottles, very beautiful and elegant.
I would like to try the Afternoon swim.
Please do! This entire line is awesome 👏 ❤️
Good night sis nice review im looking forward to checking these out
Good morning Stephy 🤗
The Afternoon swim one caught my attention. LV fragrances are not easy to dupe accurately. There seems to be a secret ingredient they use just like Guerlain where dupes will always have that oomph..missing. Would love to sniff the Afternoon Swim dupe. ❤
Ikr! Maybe they have cracked the code of safeguarding their perfume composition patent 🤔
Will try and send a sample your way ☺️
Thanks for having you here, my BOSS 🤗❤️
I think khadlaj crown is a dupe of bvlgari tygar unless the sample she got of afternoon swim is actually a tygar sample.
Greetings from far Poland. 🤩I love Your videos. I benefited from your opinions and boughtsome arabian perfums which pleased me very much. Thank You. ❤Love Your hairstyles and earrings😍
Thanks so much Dorota 🫶🏾
I hope you are enjoying the fragrances you have picked up so far.
❤❤
Oh yes, I'm very glad. 😍Thank You.♥️
Thank you Princess for this review , this Line sounds very different and intriguing , much love and hugs from Kat xoxo
It is a house worth exploring. I think they do quality perfumes at least from these few I have tried.
Hope your week is going well so far. Much love 💕 love
You look absolutely beautiful and loving the outfit. ❤
Thank you so much Charlotte ❤
As always….lovely 💛
Thanks darling 🫶🏾❤️
Hi Adwoa 👋🏽 Your braided hair is beautiful 😍 💖
Thank you Arlene ☺️💕
Thanks a lot for the reviews. ❤️❤️ Afternoon swim has been on my mind but the poor performance of even the dupes has me like 🤔🤔
I know right 😌
But the scent profile makes up for the lack of performance. Refreshing and uplifting 👍❤️
Empire Victor smells like Bare Vanilla from Victoria’s Secret to my nose, but the perfumed version of it
It’s more complex than that to me. Both beautiful nonetheless 👍❤️
@@adwoalovesfragrances5324 I’ll try it again today. I was hoping to get the nuances within the perfume as I saw some really good reviews online but when I got it and sprayed it, it reminded me of something. Realized it was Bare Vanilla and put it side by side to compare and it smells very similar. Maybe I just need to let it sit and macerate as I only got it a couple of days ago! I own a lot of fragrances including middle eastern ones and know maceration can sometimes do the trick!
I have two fragrances from this house and they smell more luxurious and the quality shines through which spray
Amanda!!!!!! Good to have you back 🤗🤗🎉
They are quite impressive right! Glad to have tried them.
We hope to see you on your channel soon 👍
ohhhh i just became super interested in Empire victor. i LOVE december vanilla. and it is currently my go-to going out fragrance. so if this is in that same vibe.. id love to have it
I can confidently say you will like Victor if you like December vanilla. 👍
@@adwoalovesfragrances5324 im on the hunt. BTW have you tried afnan cherry bouquet? it's supposed to be a dupe of Gritti Duchessa.
Thank you for this review, as I have been wondering about this line, particularly Empire Victor. I haven't found any place to get samples of ME fragrances near me, so I am hesitant to blind buy it with that barnyardy note, but I am very intrigued! I also love Khadlaj fragrances - I have quite a few from this brand and they are all impressive. Most recently I picked up 3 from the Le Prestige line, and they are all gorgeous: Empress, Royal, and Bold. Beautiful fragrances that I highly recommend!
I almost forgot to mention how good Karus Secret Musk and 25 Loyalty are as well - I highly recommend that you try both! I am also curious if you have tried Ombre Notes by Khadlaj. The notes sound great, but I haven't seen many reviews of it!
I am impressed with Khadlaj’s fragrances. Late to them but glad am getting to try them out. Thanks for the recommendations too 👍❤️
How's empress? Apparently it's a Sospiro by Vibrato inspiration which is similar to Bvlgari tygar
@@Dexxorb Empress is so good! It definitely is similar to both Vibrato and Tygar. I would highly recommend it!
I will say Crown is more similar to Tygar although it gives me more of Afternoon Swim. Empress smells very similar to Paris Corner Khair and I understand they are duping Gissa Imperial Valley
❤ Thank you dear Adwoa, I have been wondering about Khadlaj perfumes, and I wish we could buy them here.
So far, we only have a few, I got a sample of Bold from their signature perfume line.
I will try it when I am not wearing another perfume as those samples are too precious to waste😂.
I am sure in time we will get more Khadlaj perfumes Down Under.
You look absolutely stunning ❤.
Lots of love, from a sunny 🌞 autumn morning 🌄, Tia PS Khadlaj Victor is in my wish list 😀. I feel I would love this. I can handle oud like Amethyst, Ameer al Oud intense, Oudain and Barakkat Satin Oud.
I feel I would love it.❤
Ohh such a shame we have not explored this house. Late to Khadlaj but glad to know more because they are insanely beautiful. I hope you get to try them soon.
They actually weren’t super popular over here too but the vendors are now bringing them
I believe strongly that you will love Victor ❤
Thanks Tia and have a great day ❤
@@adwoalovesfragrances5324 Thank you my lovely friend, I feel it would be one of those very special perfumes for sure ❤. Wishing you a lovely day, it is almost dinner time here ( Tuesday). Love, Tia ❤
Lovely hairstyle ❤❤❤
Thank you ❤️
So lovely
Thank you 👍❤️
Solid review! Empire crown notes did come off as a Tygar clone but appreciate for pointing us right.
Welcome to the party even though you're late lol. Khadlaj is a super brand. Own a couple bottles and ive been leaning more towards the house
Thanks Dee👍
You are very right about the notes leading to Tygar which came to mind when I first sprayed crown but further testing confirms Afternoon Swim to me. Tygar and Afternoon Swim actually are quite similar but Crown seem more of Afternoon Swim than Tygar to me. Loving Khadlaj
👍❤️
Full my support
I just always love your videos; interesting, fun, straight to the point. Thank you for being so amazing.
I think I have been sleeping on this Khadlaj line. Are they affiliated to Lataffa in anyway? Just curious
Thanks sis! 🫶🏾❤️
I don’t think Khadlaj is affiliated to Lattafa. I think they are separate entities. Even their styles seem different to me.
Khadlaj is, in my opinion, superior to Lattafa in that you never smell anything off or strange in their fragrances. Their dupes are spot on and a lot of times, better than the original fragrance.
@@adwoalovesfragrances5324 okay, I will try one and give you feedback.
@@JustSayLette_16 oh yeah? This sounds intriguing.
@@Ayomide_Idris You won't be disappointed.
❤️
All the Khadlaj fragrances i have are quite good. Very curious about the Victor and Regent
Victor is my latest bae ❤
They are all phenomenal ❤
How's the longevity and sillage?
@@edidiongbassey4920Even on skin , Victor will give you a minimum of 12 hours. Yes 12 hours + on skin and over 24 hours on clothes
@@adwoalovesfragrances5324got this today because of your description
Victor sounds like a winner 😊
Khadlaj is a winner I guess. Beautiful quality perfumes
Yes, its beautiful, i got Victor today... sweet, sexy
Khadlaj. blends perfumes beautifully, I'm a fan! ❤❤❤
Me too😊
Am glad to have tried these ❤
Hi, where did you purchase it from?
Thank u, if u can recommend only 1, which will it be ?
Empire Victor ☺️❤️
Okay, so I got my Empire Victor today. I don't smell any oud in it, and nor does Khadlaj website mention it in the notes. The only woods they mention are cedarwood and sandalwood. It doesn't quite go into barnyard territory to my nose, not when I compare it against Perris monte carlo Vanille de Tahiti. The funk in the PMC comes from the champaca/magnolia and I highly recommend testing that one if you want a funky vanilla.
Simin has Oudgasm Vanilla and says they are nothing alike.
Oh nice! Glad you got it 👍
Like I said, I haven’t smelled what it’s reported to be a dupe of neither have I tried Vanille de Tahiti.
I personally get that oudy touch more than woods though but I hope you like it nonetheless
@@adwoalovesfragrances5324 I don't dislike it. Having sampled a lot of floral indolic fragrances I feel that slightly different note that takes this away from the likes of other vanillas is coming from the floral notes in this one, rather than meaning that it smells woody to me.
Either way, it will be a nice layering fragrance to stretch Vanille de Tahiti out.
@adwoalovesfragrances5324 me too. I just got mine and the oud is very prominent to my nose.
It's been reformulated. Khadlaj have updated their website to reflect the change but my seller hadn't and had April 2024 batches. I'm mad at Khadlaj. They should have just renamed roe reformulation.
Please, where do u get these samples from. GREAT reviews, by the way
Thank you sis ❤
I got them from @theperfumebargh on Instagram. She’s located adjacent UPSA Melcom but I don’t think she sells decants
@adwoalovesfragrances5324 OK thanks
@adwoalovesfragrances5324 I want to get empire victory but an not a oud lover do u think I will like it.
@@mercyadubea3439Most likely because although I get a slight skank , it is also almost gourmand with the vanilla and caramel. The caramel is not the most noticeable but it helps in making this a bit more gourmand. It is quite different but worth the try in my opinion. It will definitely not smell like anything you might already know or have
@adwoalovesfragrances5324 OK great to know
I have been looking for an afternoon swim dupe for a long time, cant get the quattre anywhere in the UK right now, 🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️ to get crown
Answered prayer I guess 😅👍
Just got empire crown today, my gosh is it gorgeous, when i saw the notes i knew i would love it, i have been after an afternoon swim dupe because i have heard only good things though i havent sampled it yet.
I am in love with Empire Crown and i love patchouli and i love how its blended here. I looked at Tyga by Bvulgari and it has the same exact notes as Emipre Crown so i wonder if they intended to dupe them. They do say Tyga and Afternoon swim are very similar
@@dgm3033is crown long lasting?
@@dgm3033 have you tried the OG afternoon swim and OG tygar to know which it is really duping? Because on the khadlaj site, the notes of crown is the exact notes of tygar on fragrantica.
What's does the Victor one smell like?? Like what perfume is it similar to? It sounded like u were saying barnyard? Am I correct? Sorry your accent is very intense which I love SO MUCH just every once in a while I have to ask but only for very words . So don't ever think we want you to change how u talk nor your accent
Ok so it has a slight animalic touch to it and I think that is from the type of Oud they used.. it is also a bit delicious, like vanilla gourmand . It’s in the same family as Paris Corner December vanilla to my nose.
Hope this helps 👍❤️
Is khadlaj oily as lattafa im a die hard rasasi fan
No these are not oils. They are EDP sprays. Good ones 👍❤️
Hi, empire crown is a dupe of bvlgari tygar no?
Per the notes, yes
where to get these in UK ?
Soghaat UK
I have crown and apparently its a clone of bvlgari tygar. Would you say Victor can be worn by man or is it leaning too feminine?
Per the notes, yes Tygar but smells more like Afternoon Swim. Victor I will consider unisex, yes slightly feminine leaning
@@adwoalovesfragrances5324 appreciate the response! Great content 👌
The middle eastern perfume companies are at are with each other 😂😂
And it’s refreshing to see other lesser known Houses doing phenomenal jobs than the very popular ones. 👍☺️
This has to be my favorite look of yours, hands down!! 💙💕✨
Awwww☺️☺️☺️
Thank you ❤
I find your videos difficult to watch sometimes because of how infrequently you're looking into the actual camera. I love your content and think you're wonderful, and I don't mean that at all to be nasty in any way. Maybe it's an eye contact thing, idk but it may be easier for some of us to watch if you looked into the camera more often. But again, I love your content and am appreciative of you providing us with information on these perfumes! ❤
Not at all. Thanks for your observation. I will try and work on it. 👍❤️
Empire crown smells like body odor on my skin
Oh noooo🥲
Yes maam
I will gjve it out
Also my empire victor .. i have the old formulation. It smells like burnt cashew nut
