RASASI Dareej For Men Eau De Parfum Spray - 100ML (3.4 Oz) Long Lasting Arabian Perfume - Bold & Premium Fragrance for Special Occasions & Daily Wear, An Essential Perfume Men that Lasts All Day

First and foremost, Rasasi's Daarej is a "clone" of Valentino V Pour Homme which was released back in 2006 and almost 10 years later it was discontinued. The original cologne retailed for around $150. Today, due to its lingering popularity and demand, there are some original bottles being sold on eBay for as high as $550. Now for the real question: How close to Valentino V is Rasasi's version, Daarej? As someone who has owned both, the original and the clone, I can tell you that Daarej is 99% like the original by Valentino. This is a well crafted clone by a very strong and established perfume house. To those who are complaining about the staying power, I have no complaints about that, it does great for 10 hours. For me personally, it is a cologne that works great well in daytime or nighttime, and it has always garnered compliments. Can this be a UNISEX cologne? I don't know, but what I can say is that there are a lot of women's perfumes out there that are strong enough to smell like a man's Cologne. Calvin Klein made $90 million ANNUALLY in the mid 90's selling its CK One Unisex cologne. So it all depends on how things are marketed. Valentino's V Perfume Pour Homme was marketed strictly for men. The one thing that I will add is this, perfumes smell very differently on people, and that is because of the personal PH and chemicals in our skins. For example, I own Coach for men, that smells very differently when I spray it on me rather than my clothes. I tend to spray it on my shirts, where it smells better than on my skin. NOTES: V pour Homme by Valentino is a Oriental Woody fragrance for men. The heart encompasses elegant cedar, sandalwood, ambergris and musk. The base contains jasmine, heliotrope, cocoa, patchouli, ambergris and vanilla. The perfume was created in 2006.

Nice smelling last a long time, the bottle is big, it is a nice everyday use.

I have mixed feelings on the scent. Very soft but stays for at least 5-7 hrs on clothing. The odor is more on the leathery side predominantly. Think of the oposite of citrus highs note on a perfume. Wont overstimulate your nose. I guess better for nights and the late afternoons mood.

If you remember Valentino V ..... THIS IS IT!!! I missed this cologne for yearrrrrs after they discontinued Valentino V, and now over 10 years later I discovered this and its amazing! Can't beat it for the price and the scent is perfectly on point with Valentino V exactly how I remember. Bought 3 bottles, and will buy more!

I bought this perfume for my brother and he loved it! He couldn’t believe how good this smells. It opens spicy, then becomes slightly floral, and finishes sweet, warm, and woody. He gets compliment after compliment every time he wears it. If you’re on the fence, get it, get it. You won’t regret it. It smells amazing. Sorry I don’t have a picture.

Not bad for a bargain. recently received 12/2025. This has a soft aroma. Nothing strong. It's a nice scent. I see why it was low priced. Product date on box, MFG,JUL 2024. so roughly 1-1/2 year old.

Very nice smell

good for the price
