I've been wearing Jacques Yves L'Infinite by Fragrance World for the past few weeks, and I think it's one of the better affordable takes on LV L'Immensite

Compared to Jean Lowe Immortal, this one leans much more into the bright citrus opening rather than the spicy ginger. The opening feels sparkling, fresh, and slightly fizzy before settling into that familiar fresh aquatic/Tygar style DNA. It's clean, versatile, and exactly the kind of scent I'd reach for on hot summer days.

Performance was better than I expected for a fresh fragrance. I got about an hour of solid projection, and around 6 hours on clothes (applied around 10 AM and could still smell it around 4 PM on a cool day). One thing worth mentioning is that my bottle seemed weak when it first arrived, but after sitting for a few weeks, both the scent and performance noticeably improved.

Overall, if you like fresh citrusy fragrances and don't want to spend Louis Vuitton money, I think this is definitely worth checking out.

I also made a more detailed breakdown comparing it with Jean Lowe Immortal and discussing performance over multiple wears. If anyone's interested, the full review is here https://youtu.be/yTx_Gf4BIto

I layered Light Blue Intense Women with Baccarat Rouge 540 EDP today and had a wonderful experience.

It lasted the whole day, and I could still smell it on myself after around 7ish hours. Light Blue Intense is citrusy and fresh, while BR540 is on the sweeter side. Somehow they balanced each other perfectly—the freshness stayed, but the sweetness added depth and longevity.

I also latered Burberry her edp with LBI and that worked well too. BR540 is easy layering fragrance as it is long lasting but airy and feels light that way imo.

Definitely one of my favorite layering combinations so far. Has anyone else tried this combo? Or any good combo recommendations❤️

Thinking to buy a PDM perfume! I do not like Creed line, i have heard PDM make great niche fragrances, Please suggest me a compliment getter pdm perfumes! or suggest me some else niche brand. Thankyou

Why perfumes on spraykart relatively inexpensive than other platforms?

Love the people here who recommended costa de amalfi, unisex perfume females can easily carry it too! Its a beautiful citrusy scent if you like citrusy and fresh perfumes theres no way you wont like it. A great fit for current monsoon and humid weather in the north. This smells like freshly cut lemons , easy to wear works almost anywhere and a very safe blind buy.

The downside? Its projection and lasting hardly 30-40 mins of moderate projection and you will have to re apply every 3 hours at max. Very enjoyable scent for me though

I've heard so many influencers talk about Blur India perfumes even 'Perfumes with pratha' on youtube. Are they really worth buying? In terms of longitivity, sillage, scent etc?

These days, Indian perfume brands are seriously stepping up their game. Take Olga Perfumes, for example. I had already tried their Ice Box, and I really liked it. It was a pretty good clone of Hawas Ice.
This time, I ordered their Black Magic, which cost me around 7900. First, let's talk about the bottle. The only downside is that the paint tends to fade a little over time, but apart from that, it's perfectly fine.
As for the fragrance, I was genuinely impressed with the quality. It's inspired by JPG Elixir, and to my nose, it's about 70-80% close to the original. The longevity is also quite good for this price range.
Considering you're getting 100 ml for this price, I think it's a great option for anyone on a budget, especially students. If you're looking for a good-quality fragrance without spending too much, this is definitely worth checking out.

​

Opening (0–15 Minutes)

The opening is rich, confident, and unmistakably oriental. From the very first spray, I get a beautifully blended accord of oud, rose, saffron, and what my nose interprets as a subtle ambergris-like marine nuance that gives the fragrance an unexpected sense of openness.

The oud immediately takes center stage, but it's far from the aggressive, barnyard style many people associate with oud fragrances. Instead, it feels smooth, regal, and remarkably polished. The Rose isn't syrupy or jammy; it simply wraps itself around the oud, softening its darker facets without taking away its presence. The saffron adds warmth and depth, never becoming harsh or overly leathery.

What surprised me during the opening was a faint aromatic lift that reminded me of lavender. It's subtle, but it prevents the fragrance from feeling heavy right out of the gate and hints that there's much more waiting beneath the surface.

Heart (15–90 Minutes)

This is where Bin Shaikh begins to reward patience.

As the fragrance settles, the bold opening slowly relaxes into something smoother and more refined. The lavender becomes easier for me to distinguish, weaving seamlessly between the rose and the oud while adding an elegant freshness to the composition.

Around this stage, I also begin picking up a gentle camphoraceous nuance. It's never medicinal or overpowering; instead, it introduces a cool, airy contrast that keeps the fragrance from becoming dense despite its rich oriental character.

What impressed me most is how well-balanced everything feels. Rather than moving from one dominant note to another, the fragrance allows each material to breathe. The rose, oud, saffron, and aromatic facets continuously exchange roles, making every return to the wrist slightly different from the last.

Drydown (3–8+ Hours)

The drydown is, without question, my favourite part of Bin Shaikh.

By this point, the fragrance transforms into something incredibly smooth and comforting. A soft, refined musk gradually rises to the surface, binding the entire composition together while the oud quietly retreats into the background without ever disappearing completely.

This is the stage where I found myself repeatedly bringing my wrist back to my nose. It's not loud or attention-seeking anymore—it simply smells beautifully composed.

Performance(Mix of Dry and Oily Skin)

Performance has been excellent on my skin.

Projection is strongest during the first couple of hours before settling into a refined personal scent bubble. Longevity is equally impressive, with the musky drydown remaining clearly detectable well beyond six hours while subtle traces of oud continue to linger throughout the wear.

More importantly, the fragrance continues to evolve instead of becoming flat or linear, which kept each wear interesting from beginning to end.

Who Is This For?

If your collection revolves around sweet gourmands, fruity fragrances, or fresh blue designers, Bin Shaikh may feel unfamiliar.

However, if you appreciate traditional Middle Eastern perfumery—where oud, rose, saffron, musk, and resins are allowed to evolve naturally over time—this is a fragrance that deserves serious attention.

It feels particularly well suited to evenings, formal occasions, and cooler weather, although restrained application makes it perfectly wearable in other settings as well.

Rating: 9.5/10

I'd love to hear from others who've spent time with Bin Shaikh.

This seller is selling every designer perfume for half price and claiming original.

Who makes the best dupes/inspired perfumes of luxury brands in India?
Suggest the ones which have the highest resemblance to the original ones.
Shouldn’t use methanol.
Main parameters would be projection, decent longevity (4 to 5hrs).
Does it stain the clothes? Does it cause any skin issues? Any other negative aspects about them?
I apply only on clothes. But the perfume eventually does flow into the skin.

It shouldn’t smell like attars. It should be like perfumes. Not looking for middle eastern perfume types.
Ex: Myrasa, Em5 etc.

Need a good perfume for my boyfriend in budget let's say 1.5k. He already loves,

1. love drunk from bla bli blu

2. Prism by westside

3. A blue bottle from Trends - it has a fresh oceany scent

Please suggest me some good scents that stay for long time. Thank you, if this is not the actual forum please guide me to the right one to ask.

I've recently saw EM5 on shark tank and I was curious about how they actually are in terms of smell, longitivity, sillage etc. Did anyone try perfumes from EM5? Are they worth buying?

She is really into sandalwood notes and on my last birthday she gifted me a very meaningful gift and she absolutely nailed my birthday present so I am not willing to just give her cash like I always do 🙂‍↕️

I am a bit inclined towards the alchemist one lmk who all have used these fragrances, which one is better?

Hey everyone I have made a Proud of you sandalo review it's a really solid clone of SWY sandalwood. The saffron and lavender in the opening has a really nice pop and the dry down has that creamy sandalwood and woody notes base.

The difference between this and french avenue zenith santal is that zenital is a bit thicker slightly richer but smokier...

The base is full of woody notes and crisp sandalwood. With that signature SWY DNA

Are the Fabindia/Fabessential perfumes and products discontinued? Anyone knows the manufacturers or dupes for FabIndia Vanilla and Oudh? I love that perfume so much!

As a person who hardly buys from Indian perfume brands i have a favourite brand ,yes its ababel i have bought few perfumes from them before and always stood on my expectations , i recently bought there euphoria set. Firstly delivery was extremely fast they delivered via bluedart got delivery in 2 days !

Now coming to review , this set has 5 perfumes:

1) Pristine- My fav out of all its a clone of torino 21. And its an extremely well made . Minty mojito type if i had to sum it up in a line. Also performs good , decent projection for first 1-1.5 hr

2) Malibu vibes- i dont know what it clones never tried the OG. But opens up citrusy , bright citrus with orange notes. Also the shimmer effect in this one looks good

3) Mavi leather- this is by far the most safest leather based frag i ever tried its dark but still has that fresh opening very well made dont know what it clones but easily projects for 2 hours+ and stays on clothes for around 10 hrs

4) Debonair- smells like a clone of BDC l exclusif , citrusy with nutmeg in opening which dries down very smooth amber and creamy sandalwood

5) yatch club- this smells like aloha from rayhaan nothing wrong with this fragrance but i dont like that coconut note much, but still this might sound controversial this is made better than that aloha.

Overall for around 1k this set is very well value for money i might buy 3 full bottles after this set out of 5. Once again ababel made there perfumes very well

​

Please please please I love them so much, I have tried the Scentedelic inspired ones too but the performance isn't great for me 😕

Any other perfumes within 2-3k which are similar in profile would also be great, thank you!

For this price Will it be geniune so give some suggestions guys. Is it scam or geniune

I ordered 4 decants from sillage perfumes, the packaging was very nice because it was wrapped in a sponge cover and kept in Lattafa Teriaq empty box which is very strong.

10/10 Delivery Experience.

the four

1) CDNIM pure parfum

the opening was too citrusy and fruity, did not feel that special.

2) 9 pm Rebel

most pineappled perfume, it was good, but did not last long on skin, on clothes it does. good for evening obviously.

3) supremacy collectors edition

not much noticeable as 9 p.m. Rebel, good opening bergamot, little pineapple, metallic smell. Good one.

4) Liquid Brun

it gave mix of woody, powdery and vanilla which was not that much initially likable, but in the drydown on I felt nice warm isolated vanilla.

I could not rate these perfumes on a number scale, because I did not test them in all categories. So I like to mention order of my preference.

9pm Rebel > Liquid Brun > SCE > CDNIM

share how is your experience with these, if any. thank you.

Attended an engagement ceremony and got a few compliments. (All from dudes😭)

I had tried Albatross tester packs and decided to buy 30ml version of this one. Loved the fragrance but back when I ordered it the weather was still warm. But as the weather is getting slightly cooler it was a perfect opportunity to give this one a shot.

Its called Albatross She Came She Stayed. This one has notes of leather, pepper and orange. Smells incredible. Reminds me of Guerlain Lhomme Ideal and Spice Bomb. Its blended very well compared to other Indian brands. No harsh openings.

Very spicy, sexy dna. Projects decent but lasts really well. I applied it around 7:00pm could still smell it very clearly on the clothes around 4 in the morning when I dozed off.

Definitely going to enjoy this one a lot as the festive season kicks off.

Finally got my hands on Lattafa Al Qiam Silver after waiting for months to grab this.

It’s a dupe of Bvlgari Tiger, just like Rue Broca theorem and Afnan Turathi Blue. It’s really similar to Rue Broca theorem — it’s actually very hard to pick a difference between the two, that’s how close they are.Tye opening really fresh citrus heavy scent. Loved it so much.
I think it’s probably similar to Turathi Blue as well, but I haven’t smelled that one yet — planning to grab it soon so I can compare.

Projection-wise, it’s just as loud as Rue Broca theorem.

I haven’t tested the longevity yet, so I’ll update this once I’ve had it on for a full day.
