Hareem al Sultan Gold Clones

"### Conclusion Roaa al Sharq Gold is a decent clone, offering a similar scent profile to Hareem al Sultan Gold . The slightly synthetic opening and earthier dry down are the primary differences. If you are seeking a more refined and polished experience and price is no object, the original might be worth the splurge. For daily wear, or casual occasions, this clone performs admirably. ### How it Smells Roaa al Sharq Gold opens with a fairly bright citrus accord. Bergamot and tangerine are noticeable, although they possess a slightly artificial edge. The apple note is less prominent, contributing a subtle sweetness rather than a distinct fruity aroma. The heart develops quickly. Magnolia and gardenia are the main players. Lily-of-the-Valley adds a green freshness that prevents the white florals from becoming cloying. The base is where this clone diverges most from Hareem al Sultan Gold. The original has a smoother, more refined amber. Here, it's heavier on the patchouli, creating a slightly earthier and less sweet dry down. I'd say it achieves about 89% accuracy to the original. The differences are subtle but perceptible, especially in the base. ### How Long Does it Last? Longevity is moderate. Expect around 5-6 hours on skin. Projection is initially strong for the first hour, creating a decent scent bubble, before settling closer to the skin. It is not a beast mode fragrance."

"### Olfactory Experience Sultan Golden Crown opens with a burst. Bergamot and tangerine offer immediate brightness, but the apple note leans slightly artificial here, a minor drawback. It’s about 87% of Hareem al Sultan Gold in the opening – that similar juicy fruitiness is present, though Khadlaj's feels a bit more natural. The heart of magnolia, gardenia, and lily-of-the-valley emerges smoothly. The white floral bouquet is lush and feminine. The base has a warm glow, amber melded with patchouli and vanilla. This blend is where it truly shines. The dry down is a cozy, comforting skin scent. ### Performance Reality Check The performance is impressive . Expect around 6-7 hours of longevity. Projection is moderate for the first 2 hours, then settles closer to the skin. Not a beast, but respectable. ### Conclusion Sultan Golden Crown is a good dupe for those who enjoy sweet, fruity-floral perfumes. It captures the essence of the original well, with only slight synthetic edges noticeable upon close inspection. It fits the personality of someone who exudes easy charm. A good everyday fragrance, but it could also be a great gift for someone just dipping their toes into the world of fragrances."
