Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on Niche 49 ALKHAYAL.
We completely understand that the opening of a fragrance is often the first point of comparison—and you're right to notice a difference. Our version is formulated as an extrait de parfum with a 30% oil concentration, whereas the original is an eau de parfum with approximately 15% oil. This means our formulation is richer, longer-lasting, and develops differently on the skin, especially in the top notes.
As the scent begins to dry down, you'll find that it gets closer and closer to the original inspiration. We’ve crafted ALKHAYAL with high-quality ingredients to ensure that while the initial impression may differ slightly, the heart and base of the fragrance remain true to the luxurious DNA you’d expect.
We’re glad you still found it a good scent, and we hope it grows on you with each wear
