Boozy plum & marzipan (inspired by Carlisle)
First of all, best regards to the EssenceVitae "Duftfieber" who sent me this sample for free.

I found out about Tafakhar via Youtube.
Allegedly a Carlisle dupe.
For 14,99 € of course interesting.

As expected, the fragrance was great, but the performance was weak.

Tafakhar starts very sweet and alcoholic.
Sounds cheap and synthetic, but after a few moments a beautiful plum comes in.
And now it comes across as a boozy plum that is very pleasant.
I would describe the plum more as a dried plum.
Quite dark, boozy and sweet.
The sweetness is also reminiscent of marzipan without smelling too marzipan-y.
As the fragrance progresses, it becomes a little creamier due to the sandalwood and also spicier.
But everything is quite pleasant, this is not a spice bomb like Spicebomb Extreme or Tobacco Vanille Eau de Parfum.

As already mentioned, the performance is rather weak.
I get a radiance of 1h here, with 6 sprays.
And even in the first hour, it's not exactly strong.
It's more of a fragrance that's perfect for work or when you're cuddling with your partner Then it shouldn't bother anyone.
If you want to stand out, you need at least 10+ sprays and even then I don't really know if that would work.

Like Carlisle, Tafakhar is a unisex fragrance, but I see it more on a man.
Because hardly any women own Carlisle either, at least here on EssenceVitae (2% of users, as of today).

A really nice fragrance for the winter.
If you say to yourself: I don't need a strong performer, then you will definitely be happy with this fragrance.

Tafakhar
These name means : to show off
And honnestly it does truly show off it smells so freaking good , i was stunned by the smell yes its clear its a cheapie but if it makes sense u dont feel it as a cheapie at all ,
-when i bought these going out of store the first who stopped me two young people telling me what am wearing since i smell so good , after that 10min later
Two girls walking behind me were whispering how goergous i was smelling
I get plum,nutmeg , a hint of bergamote
Sorry for my novice nose
Anyways cool how is longevity its average 6hr and 30min but hey wanna boost their longevity ??
-with companies like lattafa and ard al zaafaran use it a day or two so oxygen gets in then leave it for 6-7 weeks So it macerate it will performe better 1-2 hr more
Bottle may please some , and some may love it
For me great looking , cap is plastic but holds in place but dont grab it by cap
But who grabs a parfume bottle by cap anyways ??
For final words these purshe was 17€
And am all happy 8.5/10.

Tafakhar is close to Carlisle, but Carlisle is more round, more refined, real quality. The bottle looks simple and cheap unfortunately.

I wouldn't say that I really like Carlisle DNA, but Tafakhar being less distinctive, is more friendly to my nose, and easier to wear.
