Rare Tiffany
Afnan

The recommended "spray and sit" technique for middle eastern scents did not remove the initial cleaning fluid blast.

Once that faded, Rare Tiffany settles into a ylang and indolic jasmine bouquet on an old-school feeling musk, sandalwood, and caramel base for a short while until it dries down into a bog-standard pink-pepper woody amber aromachemical.

Letting this age helped. I don't get as much of the "I'm hanging out in an over-chlorinated indoor pool" vibe I used to.
However, it's still cleaning fluid for the first minute or so.

Rare Tiffany is headache-inducing if over-sprayed or in the heat or on the wrong day.

The presentation is pretty, though.

I have seen that a lot of people really love this. It was cheap, so I gave it a shot. It’s definitely one with summer vibes sans coconut.

But for some reason, it really just doesn’t agree with my nose. I strangely get… water park… complete with a background hint of chlorine in the air and sweat. In a way, it’s kind of nostalgic, but I absolutely do not want to wear it. Maybe if it was a candle, I’d like it more.

I gave it to my mom, and she doesn’t get chlorine or sweat. And I can’t say that I’ve seen anyone else say the same as me, so don’t listen to me, my nose may be broken when it comes to this scent.

As far as performance goes, I’d say it’s pretty good. Not crazy loud or eternal, but it lasts the majority of a day and projects nicely without being obnoxious.

To my knowledge, it’s not a dupe/clone of any existing popular fragrance.

I’ll give it a neutral because I feel bad saying that it’s bad when I seem to be the only one who perceives strange notes with it.
