Okay, so Baraonda can be kinda intense, not gonna lie. It has this earthy, almost smoky vibe that I totally vibe with, but I get how it could be too much for some. It's not your usual fruity floral fragrance at all, more complex and interesting. I think it's a great option when you’re feeling adventurous!
This fragrance is just phenomenal! The mix of dark resin and slight sweetness just catches me every time I wear it. It does remind me a little of some Middle Eastern oils I’ve tried, but way more sophisticated. I get compliments every time I spritz it on. It lasts ages, like I can still smell it on my clothes after a couple of days! Perfect for those mysterious vibes.
This is my go-to now! Baniyas has this beautiful balance of warmth and freshness. The vanilla and some kind of woodiness come through, and it’s just stunning. I wear it to the office and out with friends. Not crazy strong but lasts a solid 6-8 hours, which is nice. Definitely a staple for me!
OMG, Black Afgano is such an experience! It's super smoky and dark, and I love how the incense mixes with that resinous vibe. I feel like I’m in some enchanted forest wearing it. It lasts all day on my skin, too, and the projection is kinda beast mode. Definitely not for the faint-hearted, but if you like daring scents, this is a must-try!
I absolutely love Baraonda! It's this unique blend of warm spices and dark woods that feels both cozy and mysterious. It kinda reminds me of tobacco scents but without being too overpowering. The lasting power is impressive too—easily lasts all day. Definitely a go-to for autumn nights out! Highly recommend it!
So, Baraonda is nice but it didn't blow my mind. I pick up on some oak and spice, which is cool, but it feels a bit too mellow for my taste. Performance is decent but not beast mode; it kinda sits close to the skin after a few hours. I expected more of a punch since it's a Nasomatto. Kinda reminds me of Byredo's Oud Immortal, but less exciting. Overall, a solid fragrance, just not my go-to!
Black Afgano is good, but not without its quirks. I'm all about dark fragrances, and this one hits that mark with its smoky notes. However, sometimes it feels too intense, like it can drown out everything else. I love how different it is, but tbh, it can be a bit cloying if you overspray. Also, it lasts around 5-6 hours, which isn't bad, but I wish it projected more. If you want something bold and different, this could be it, just be careful with the application.
Baraonda is just stunning! It has this elegant vibe with a touch of sweetness, probably from the vanilla or something. It's not overly heavy but has a nice presence that turns heads. I wore it on a date and got tons of compliments. If you're looking for something that feels classy yet warm, this is it!
Black Afgano is intense, like, really intense. I get a lot of that herbal richness – almost meditative? It's not my go-to since it sometimes feels too heavy for everyday wear. But if you want something bold for a night out, this could work! Just know that it sticks around; I had one spritz and smelled it all day. Not for everyone, but intriguing!
OMG, Baraonda is love! The first spray hits with this rich depth that I can’t get enough of. There’s definitely some woodiness and maybe a touch of leather in there? It feels super luxurious. It’s perfect for special occasions but I find myself reaching for it almost daily. Just a little goes a long way, so it’s a great value.
Baraonda gives me this warm hug feeling every time I wear it. I pick up a lovely rich sweetness with hints of spice—I think maybe some cardamom? It’s and a total mood booster for chilly days! I don’t mind the slightly close-to-skin feel since it’s comforting, but I wish the projection was a bit stronger. Still, a solid 5/5!
Okay, Baniyas is the real deal! It opens up sweet and floral, and then settles into this warm, comforting scent that feels super indulgent. I can see it being perfect for cooler nights or any cozy vibe. Lasts really well, too! I sprayed it in the morning, and I still caught whiffs by dinner. Definitely adding this to my collection!
Baniyas really surprised me. It's unlike any other scent I own. The depth is amazing, and I can definitely pick up some sweet notes mixed with a cozy base that feels super unique. It’s a bit strong at first but settles down nicely. Kinda reminds me of a warmer BR540, but even more original. Love it!
Honestly, Baniyas wasn't what I expected. There’s definitely a nice sweetness, but it gets lost on my skin after a while. Might be better for someone who loves heavier scents. I like lighter fragrances more. It’s not bad by any means, just not really my vibe. Give it a shot if you’re into unique blends, though!
Black Afgano is def one of those experimental perfumes! At first, it’s kinda hard to get into with all the darkness and complexity. I get earthy notes followed by a hint of sweetness that keeps it interesting. It's unique, for sure, but not something I’d wear to the office. I’d rock it for a date night or special occasion though.
This fragrance is unforgettable! Super rich and smoky, it wraps around you like a cozy blanket. I honestly can't get enough of that weird, intoxicating vibe it has. It feels luxurious and edgy at the same time. The longevity? Holy grail level! I'm pretty sure I’ll be rocking this for years to come, especially in the colder months.
So I finally tried Black Afgano, and honestly? It's decent. The earthy vibes hit right away, and there’s a hint of something sweet, maybe resin? But it doesn’t wow me. Honestly, I expected more based on the hype. Lasts around 6 hours, but projection is pretty close to the skin. If you’re looking for a big statement scent, this isn't it. It's nice for cozy nights in, but I wouldn’t wear it to impress anyone. Not a total miss, but definitely not my go-to.
I really love Black Afgano! It's like a cozy, smoky embrace with a hint of sweetness. The earthy vibes and that dark undertone are super captivating. It kinda reminds me of an incense-infused evening, making it a great choice for nights out. Lasts about 6hrs on me, which is decent, but I wish the projection was a bit stronger. It’s definitely unique and would get someone’s attention, but maybe not for daily wear. If you like something bold, give it a shot!
Really loving Baraonda! It's got this warm, slightly boozy vibe that totally gives me cozy feels. The woodiness is super nice and balances out any sweetness. Not as long-lasting as I'd like, maybe 4-5 hours, but it's definitely unique. Kinda reminds me of something between Santal 33 and a rich vanilla whiskey. Perfect for evenings out but could work during the day too if you're feeling bold. Highly recommend if you want something different!
I tried Baraonda and it’s decent, but honestly, it didn’t blow my mind. The notes are a bit mysterious, but I pick up some warm woodiness and a hint of spice—kinda like a cozy fireside scent. The longevity is okay, maybe 6 hours, but I wish the projection was stronger. It’s just not super special for me. Reminds me a bit of Byredo’s Super Cedar but has its own twist. Worth a sniff, but I’m not rushing to buy a bottle.
