What people who wear Afnan Mirsaal With Love report, based on votes and reviews from a large fragrance community.
“This is heavy stuff. Massive projection and longevity. It has the BR540 vibe going on for sure but it's like exaggerated oriental version of it. Honestly I couldn't stand it, it gives me the impression of something dirty, sweaty and waaay too heavy on the moss and balsamic notes. There are very few perfumes that I can't stand and this is one of them. Too bad, as the quality of it is impeccable and the presentation is above and beyond, considering the price. Not a safe blind buy!”
“I had to let this one sit for couple of months as the first spray when it arrived was somewhat ugly. Now I love this specially when my bf wears it. I love to smell this on him, but is defiantly unisex and the price is great, presentation is gorgeous.”
“not for me or the casual to average perfume enjoyer, imo. i've never tried the actual BR540 but i've smelled a bunch of creations ~~~inspired~~~ by it and i find afnan's other BR attempts way nicer and wearable. the fecal/moss note in this or whatever it is made me physically ill and i'm not a person who is particularly sensitive to scents. good longevity. sample it before buying if you can.”
