What wearers say

“I had a luck to get again a bottle of this really rare perfume a few days ago. One of my favourite drydowns, because the drydown shows all the magic of this scent.Perfume for enjoyment, it is subtle, creamy, seductive, decent, erotic peppery scent that is very unique and niche quality. Decent projection but it lasts whole day.I hoped that Daarej (which is, many say similar) be adequate substitute, but I find it too synthetic and harsh and it can't replace Valentino which is natural, warmly soft and perfectly rounded.”

“Woody and spicy with some sweetness.When i sampled, it smelled interesting and good on test stripe, but on my skin started to cloy after some time.Not develops much and lasts really long on my skin.Very formal, not suitable for casual, daily or office wear.Not bad but not my type of smell.Projection is also very good.”
A member of a leading fragrance community
“Spicy, musky and vanilla. The vanilla is not sweet but a deep and rich variety. It's very spicy but not loud. A gentlemen's scent on a cool evening. Best for nights out and evening wear. Not your jeans an t-shirt fragrance. Longevity is over 8 hours with mild projection/silage. You will have to shop around to get a fair price on it is the only drawback.”

Sillage

Daarej trades some of the original's aromatic complexity and spice depth for a cleaner, more linear presentation. The original has slightly better development and sillage, while the clone is more straightforward but still delivers the warm woody-amber signature.

Sillage

The clone smooths out the original's herbal-spiced complexity in favor of a creamier, more gourmand presentation. Longevity and sillage are noticeably reduced, with the clone lasting 5-6 hours versus the designer's 8+ hour performance.
