I own By the Fireplace by MMM as well as Ameer, and I genuinely prefer Ameer to BTF, which I never thought I would say about a clone despite how much fun they are to collect and experiment with.

And if you love Vanilla maybe Lattafa Ameer Al Oud - by the fireplace clone but without the smokyness.

Ameer is almost 100% identical to By The Fireplace with a tiny tiny bit more vanilla, which is awesome if you want BTF!
