Riqqa captures the warm, boozy sweetness of Angels Share quite effectively, with a similar cognac and tonka bean foundation that creates that signature creamy-boozy profile. However, the clone lacks some of the complexity and depth found in the original, with less prominent tobacco nuance and slightly softer projection. The base notes feel more linear and less layered than Kilian's sophisticated woody-musk finish.
Riqqa delivers solid longevity (6-8 hours) but softer sillage compared to Angels Share's more commanding presence. The tobacco and spice clarity is noticeably diminished, making the clone feel slightly more one-dimensional in its sweetness.
