Lattafa Ansaam Gold Eau De Parfum Spray for Unisex, 3.4 Ounce

Love Don’t Be Shy/ Oriana Dupe – Similar DNA.
So let me preface this by saying that I have GONE THROUGH IT when it comes to blind buying perfumes online, definitely some GOOD hits but LOTS of misses lol! I rely on the reviews from Amazon buyers and watch lots of videos on Tik Tok and Youtube to get an idea of what the perfume might smell like and let me just say, anyone who said this perfume smelled good … was definitely right!Now I get certain notes might not be for everyone, I consider myself a “gourmand girlie” I like for my scents to smell sweet and edible and like vanilla but this perfume intrigues me in a weird (but good!) way.Let’s start off with the packaging .. absolutely solid and so beautifully made! 10/10Now lets get into the scent: When I spray it I definitely get sweet but not overpowering and floral but not ROSEY. One of the top notes is stated as being Mandarin and I definitely smell that but I wouldn’t go so far as to say its overly citrusy because the vanilla and musk prevent it from being so. If I can describe it in words I’d call it an Orange Creamsicle, its soft and creamy. It’s so not what I’m used to but I absolutely adore it, I love pairing it with EOS 24 Hr Moisture Body Lotion in Vanilla Cashmere. It’s such a fun, girly, feminine perfume. In terms of longevity, I think it holds up well for what it is. When sprayed on clothes I definitely smell it up until the next day.Compliments: I’ve gotten several compliments while wearing this perfume but twice while I was at the gym SWEATING! I was in the locker room and a woman stopped me dead in my tracks to ask me what I had on, she said it smelled a lot like Lychee to her and I thought that was so interesting! Another time a member at the gym came up to me and said “You smell like a superstar, you smell like Barbie!” and listen, I don’t know what that means but i’ll take it LOL!This review is entirely too long but I’ll say that a lot of the reviews have mentioned that this perfume smells like Love Don’t Be Shy by Killian and Oriana and I’d say it has a similar DNA, I did a lot of research on affordable dupes and stumbled upon Lattafa’s Ansaam Gold but prior to choosing this one I ordered Dossier’s Floral Marshmallow because it was stated as also being a dupe but immediately ended up returning it because I could not get with the smell at all! If you’re like me stuck between two choices, I promise Ansaam Gold is the right choice 🙂

It’s okay
I used it around the house lol it’s my stay home perfume. The bottle and package is gorgeous the scent is not for everyone. At first spray I didn’t like it. As the scent settles it gives a clean powdery aroma is the best way I can describe. Not one of my favorites but not bad. It depends on body chemistry and how it settles.

So disappointing
I am a perfume collector and buy easily 4 new fragrances a week. I had such high hopes for this as I Love the almost everything I’ve purchased from this fragrance house. After many reviews from various TikTok videos and Amazon reviews and looking at the notes, I was sure I would adore this scent. That unfortunately is not the case at all. The presentation is stunning if all you want is a pretty bottle. However, it gives me a very artificial almost plastic like sweet scent in the air and on a swatch. On my skin it was like the scent you get when opening a new toy from the packaging. I hoped after the dry down it would change but unfortunately it got worse. It soured to an almost sweet rancid scent. I sprayed it on two friends and my boyfriend and it was the same on them as well. I tried to return and Amazon will not allow a refund or exchange even after receiving it only 24 hours ago. I’m very unhappy because this is not even a scent that I can gift someone.

Venía muy bien empaquetado, huele delicioso aunque si podría llegar a ser muy fuerte para personas que tienen el olfato muy sensible, el tiempo de entrega fue rápido, vale mucho la pena si quieres un perfume que resalte y se sienta elegante

Delicious smell, partner loves it and it lasts such a long time.
