Ameer Al Oudh Intense takes significant creative liberties with the original's cozy fireplace aesthetic by introducing heavy oud and dark amber notes that weren't present in By The Fireplace. While both share vanilla, cashmeran, and spiced elements in the middle sections, the clone leans toward a more Oriental fragrance profile rather than replicating the warm, woody-chestnut character of the designer. The clone is noticeably heavier and more oud-centric, making it a loose interpretation rather than a faithful replica.
The clone replaces the signature guaiac wood and chestnut with prominent oud and dark amber, creating a completely different olfactory experience. Ameer Al Oudh Intense has stronger longevity but sacrifices the intimate, aromatic fireplace quality for a bolder Oriental composition.

โThe open is a noticeably different from BTFP although on drydown it's like 90% similar and I doubt most people smelling it on you could tell the difference. With price and performance considered this is easily one of my best blind buys and I don't feel the need to own BTFP anymore.I would agree this leans a little more masculine than the original which is fine for me as I'm very masculine. And as you've assume this is going to be a very cold/night kind of scent not something you'd ever wear in summer.โ
โThis was a blind buy and I don't know what By the fireplace smells like.A woody, smokey scent with a note that reminds me of something fruity and Coca Cola and definitely a leather note. I'm not fan of oud but this one I like. Not too much woody/oudy. Excellent longevity, projection also quite good. It lasts 6+ hours on my skin and much longer on clothes. Beautiful winter fragrance.What's fascinating to me is that I immediately recognized that scent at first sniff - Woodwick candle Indigo Suede which smells identical! And I love, love that candle in winter time.โ
โOooo My first Lattafa & I am impressed!This is a great frag for the price.This is VERY similar to Phlur Vanilla Smoke, which I also own & love.I can also see the similarity to By The Fireplace (also own & love), that's noted in a lot of comments below. It's like BTFP minus the chestnut note.If you like BTFP or Vanilla Smoke, this is probably a safe blind buy.For the price, you can't go wrong with this.Decent strength & longevity. Very much enjoying this.Good job Lataffa.โ
