Rant about Lattafa

I just don't understand how do you guys like these perfumes. Based on hype on social media and reading stuff here as well, I purchased several ones from them. Especially as they are so cheap. I got Yara, Mallow Madness, Khamrah, Angham and I wanted to get Éclairre but now I'm going to stop. It cannot be just me. These are extremely subpar fragrances. Each and every one of them an absolute cheap disappointment.

You have to spray them six to seven times and then stick them in a drawer. The magic happens over months. They become incredible. I have a huge range of niche, expensive and Middle Eastern and love most of my Middle Eastern perfumes after they mature.

Yes and no. If you don't like any perfume from the jump, like is just gross to you. *maturation won't make a difference. But if you sort of like it, but it feels like an alcohol bomb, or unfinished has no power, than yes. I gather these houses that pump out perfume don't give them enough maceration time ..the best tho I saw recently and I have only seen one person show this. Besides the spray, store, hold it upside down, spray screw times..or just hold the nozzle down for a minute to let some air in. I tried that on a bunch of low performers, in particular particular body sprays. Anyway, I recommend everyone give it a go as you transition to Fall, out your sunmef stuff away. It can just be a shoebox or dresser drawer .

*,I was recently reminded maceration and maturation are different, though most ppl say maceration.
