Daarej pour Homme Rasasi

The title of my review already indicates that here is equal to a Crowdpleaser "taken apart". Basically, I find Rasasis fragrances quite good, Hawas is here an absolute positive example. Also cost-wise everything is pleasant here. I became aware of the Daarej here while probing the Rasasi fragrances. Various reviews read and ordered. Was almost gift.

The bottle with its purple liquid I still find very attractive, clear glass in a slightly star-shaped mount with nice lettering. Purple and sweet, that should fit together?

Indeed, the Daarej starts more spicy than sweet, the cardamom and cumin give a nice concert in the top notes. The rose makes the drummer and provides a slightly tart note. The iris on the other hand mingles with the crowd, unfortunately it is faint to smell out. Not like the iris in Prada L'Homme. So I can't agree with some of the comparisons to Prada, unfortunately. Now with the tonka bean, musk and vanilla, cute stage dancers come out for a cloying finish. I've had this exact progression on my nose somewhere before. I'm sure it was a body lotion or shower gel (although the latter tend to come out fresher). Maybe an even cheaper drugstore scent? I can't remember. Anyway, for me, it's a completely ordinary scent. Not that it's bad, no. It is suitable for everyday use. But it lacks that certain something. Something is not quite enough at the Daarej.

The durability is really good (7-8 hours on the skin), the sillage is not weak but also not overwhelming. Overall, you can enjoy the Daarej as an oriental-spicy-sweet fragrance. For the masses, it will not meet with rejection. You can see that in many comments here in the forum. With me, he comes unfortunately in the souk, because I will use him, despite its everyday suitability, far too little.
