Just

The Scent Profile

Just by Fragrance World is clearly trying to capture the Yara magic. The opening blasts you with a sweet, candied tangerine and a noticeable orchid note. It's pleasant enough. But it lacks the smoothness of the original Lattafa. The heart brings that yummy gourmand accord – think strawberry milkshake – and a hint of generic tropical fruit. It's nice, if a bit synthetic. The drydown is where it gets closer to Yara, with vanilla and a creamy sandalwood coming forward. I’d say it's about 83% similar. It’s sweeter and lacks the depth of the original, but the core DNA is there.

Is it Worth It?

Just is a solid option if you're curious about Yara but don't want to commit to the original's slightly higher price point. If you demand perfect clones and ultimate refinement, stick to the Lattafa. But if you are budget conscious and like a sweet, fruity gourmand scent, this is a great deal. A safe blind buy if you enjoy super sweet scents.

Projection Power

Longevity is surprisingly decent. I get about 5-6 hours on my skin. Projection is moderate for the first hour, then it settles closer to the skin. Not a beast, but not a complete weakling either. Perfectly acceptable . Don’t expect this to fill a room.
