Raheeq

To my nose this is the lovechild of nuxe delectable fragrant water by reve de miel and pear gelato by theodoros kalitonos. One of the truer honey fragrances that I have tried with a dry down that is all at once, creamy, deep, musky and airy. The notes here support the translation of honey and don't jump out of the composition to be noticed on their own - they factor into the depth that a lot of honey perfumes seem to lack. This is a lovely comforting honey fragrance and as someone who is endlessly in pursuit of translations of honey into perfume this is one of the more convincing renditions for me! At the same time this does leave me wanting more from the performance. It sits as a skin scent about an hour into the wear and even if I douse myself in this it remains on the subtle side. It does sit beautifully as a skin scent and does have a "your skin but better" quality that is enticing but I wish it was a bit louder. For the pricepoint it is hard to complain though as I do think this is sophisticated especially for how inexpensive it is. Most of the time I am wearing this with another perfume just to give it more punch. One of my favourite combos has been with Sol De Janeiro danca mistica - the sweaty green ripeness of that really brings out the sweetness of the honey here. This perfume is the feeling of a stroll in the park with birds chirping in the quiet of the afternoon before day breaks, a fleeting moment that brings you bliss only to soon be forgotten in the noise of the rest of a busier day. Luscious by French Avenue remains my favourite honey note so far and one I'll always return to but for something that is breezier and more delicate this may tempt me to get another bottle. Get your nose on it!

Beautiful. Absolutely gorgeous. If you like Scandal by JPG you will like this. It is its own perfume, but its a similar scent profile. If I had to describe it best with 2 scents, it would be if Scandal and Alien Goddess by Mugler had a baby, with a tad more sweetness. It opens up with a warm honey with citrus- if you ever had a sweet black tea with lemon and honey, it gives off the same vibe in the opening. Then it settles more into a raw honey, before the coconut and magnolia and caramel come in- omg, it is divine. It's airy yet goopy, full of honey, with a touch of a white, smooth coconut and magnolia- it makes it smell so sophisticated, beautiful and delicious. It is feminine leaning, but definitely would smell amazing on a guy. More cosy autumn and winter scent, I think it might be a tad too heavy for day wear in the summer- definitely good for the evening. Smells expensive from the start. Great quality perfume, I am surprised it is this cheap. It is a perfumy, floral gourmand- it could be edible, but it is still perfumy and very elegant. It's quite strong, 2 sprays are projecting at least a metre, and the longevity is decent. It is lasting AT LEAST 6 hours on the skin.

I have Raheeq for several month now, but did not give her a proper wear since today. Wow. I am blown away. This is a really beautiful perfume. Not to honey sirupy, just in the opening. She has a good longevity, moderate to high projection. But she is really nice and classy. Like a very beautiful niche expensive perfume only few people know about. I though i would never wear her. but now i know it's love. She does not have artificial ambroxan or isoEsuper like most ME fragrances. The power comes from the raw materials ( there is probably enhancers too but less). it's a extrait, so very concentrate. i wear her in an office, with air conditionning but i think she is not too heavy for the équatoriale country i live in. Affordable parfumery Gem (less than 50€) and the bottle is so cute 😍😍😍

Gave it a week before spraying and taking it seriously. Now, I can't stop sniffing my hoodie. This Fragrance is warm, gooey, sweet, and delicious. Like i literally stuck my head in a honey pot. Surprisingly (and thankfully), I get ZERO coconut. When i first saw that note, I was afraid that it would take this fragrance into a tropical trajectory. Even the fruits and florals listed take a backseat and are supporting roles. Honey is the main star here and I also love the bottle! I was on the hunt for a nice CHEAP honey fragrance before inevitably splurge and get something like Zoologist Bee or Slowdive. I have Naxos and Can't Stop Loving You already, but I'm currently on the hunt for a DOMINANT sweet honey fragrance. So far, despite the price, this is satisfying my honey craving.

Nusuk is my favorite middle-eastern perfume house and this is one of their original creations. If you don’t like honey - don’t waste your money (I love honey notes). For me, it’s simply addictive. Honey is in your face, but it’s not super sweet honey from the jar. It has something almost medicinal about it (a bit like Baccarat Rouge). I absolutely love it, but it’s not safe blind buy. A man could pull it off, too. I would melt if I smelt it on a man, and I am melting when I smell it on myself. It’s very strong, not discrete at all, not youthful, not playful. It’s a statement in a bottle. In my head I imagine the 90’s eastern european wife of criminal gang boss wearing it together with expensive fur coat and heavy gold earrings, while smoking a slim cigarette in her kitchen.
