Emaan

Conclusion

Emaan is a solid entry point for those curious about the Le Parfum Royal DNA, but hesitant to commit to the higher price tag. It’s for the woman who wants to project a sense of regal confidence without emptying her wallet. The synthetic edges are noticeable if you're a fragrance connoisseur, but for the casual wearer, it's a beautiful rose-patchouli scent. Emaan gets the job done .

Scent Breakdown

Emaan opens with a juicy mandarin, but it’s got a bit of a candied edge, hinting at its budget origins. The heart blooms quickly; a double dose of rose – Turkish and Bulgarian – tries hard to mimic the plushness of Le Parfum Royal. Neroli adds a welcome brightness, but it lacks the original's refined quality. The drydown is where the differences are most apparent. The patchouli is present, but not as deeply rooted or richly textured as in the Elie Saab. The amber and sandalwood provide warmth, but remain fairly linear. I’d say it captures about 88% of the original vibe.

Wear time & Sillage

It projects moderately well for the first hour, creating a pleasant, noticeable aura. After that, it settles closer to the skin. Longevity is respectable, clocking in at around 5-6 hours. Don't expect all-day performance, but it's more than acceptable.
