I sprayed one wrist with Note Jazz and the other Club Black, the differences are so minor as to largely being redundant. In the air they will smell the very similar to the point my Noob nose wont pick out the nuances. BUT.... Club Black is a very muted Vanilla. I don't get more than 6.5 hours out of it, with intimate projection. Was proper”what reddit says ↓ |

- Reddit users find the two scents very close and suitable for the same occasions, though Rifaaqat is noticeably more peppery, spiced, and sweet compared to Club Black's smokier vanilla profile.
- Many commenters actually prefer Rifaaqat, describing it as a more dynamic scent, though they caution that its prominent top pepper note can be divisive.
- Rifaaqat is frequently recommended as the better option between the two due to its cheaper price tag and long-lasting performance.
“The original is a beauty! Was the basis for me buying Rifaaqat.”
reddit ↗“Kinda reminds me of Mercedes club black with extra pepper”
reddit ↗“It is a lovely fragrance but I find Rifaaqat more dynamic, because of that pepper up top. I know it's divisive but I prefer it because it has that little something extra. Both great fragrances though!”
reddit ↗“Get Rifaaqat instead of Mercedes club black. They're very similar but Rifaaqat is more dynamic and cheaper.”
reddit ↗“I've tried MBCB and I bought Rifaaqat as I preferred it. Very close, except Rifaaqat has a peppery note which some people don't enjoy. Rifaaqat lasts for hours!”
