I have both Valentino V and this. They are very similar to me almost identical. I find the Rasasi version last longer and projects better. I believe that to be because it is a stronger concentration (EDT VS EDP). With Valentino V being discontinued i can wear this and not be as concerned with burning through the half bottle of V i have left.
@truthteller44425 жыл бұрын
I tried to buy a bottle of "V" Valentino, about 6 months ago. I had no clue it was discontinued, and I actually got depressed. I LOVED that smell, and only had 1/2 ounce left. I tried to buy it online, and everyone wants me to mortgage my house to pay for it. So, that wasn't an option. Tried looking for an exact knock-off clone, and couldn't find one. Some people suggested Daarej. I bought it and I swear...it has to be the same exact thing. Maybe a few minor notes are different, but not much. It is damn near identical...just a tad sweeter (which I like), and projects and lasts much longer. So, I ended up liking this much more and will sell the "V." Ironic. lol.

Great review. When I initially sprayed this on wrist it did remind me of Valentino V, but I wasn't a fan of the opening initially, but I have to say the dry down on my skin was absolutely amazing and I do garner compliments when I wear it. Also, I've noticed that it has the deceiving ability to disappear from the wearer's nose, but people around you can still smell it. Sort of wearer's nose camouflage where it can appear as a skin scent to the wearer, but quite noticeable for others around the wearer. I'm glad you did this review, because it has been a while since I've worn this and its probably time to give it a go and let some of my current rotation rest. It is not a scent for everybody, but I haven't found a lady that doesn't like it when I wear it.

Pretty accurate review. It’s definitely more of an evening out frag and in a cool night scenario it will shine. I use three sprays because it can be a bit cloying if you overdo.

I have Daarej by one year. For me it is a versatile fragrance: work, club, date, all season (maybe summer nights, not very hot days), a very good winter option. It has an unique vibe (nobody have Valentino V anyway), very good performance indeed, i like alot the purple juice and the bottle it has a nice design to. I get a nice compliments from girls for real. Smell somehow erotic/atractive/confident/playfull. A very well mix of notes in this scent, opening/drydown, sweet, little smokey i feel, one of the best vanilla here mix with tonkabeam (well done). I don't feel the rose in here like in Tasmeem, but it is there. I will buy it again for sure. I have from Rasasi, Tasmeem & Entebaa but Daarej it's the best from all three. A signature scent indeed with a great quality and afordable price. Good review like always 👌 MrSmelly.

And I will never take word of mouth to purchase any fragrance again, without smelling it FIRST. This fragrance has been reviewed by many on KZbin, but I found this fragrance to be less than average and nothing more than Victoria Secret women's fragrance.
