Qissa Blue

In this insane UAE heat I'm currently a bit obsessed with ginger and citrus scents. From 4711 to Alvarez Gomez and now Paris Corner, I'm adding to my collection of light, breezy, summer cooler fragrances. I just did a massive Paris Corner haul, I'm loving their summer freshies and I accumulated over 6 in the last one month alone. Like Ashroloie, down here most of my perfumes are actually on the heavy side, pretty Oud and Bakhur filled, or dark florals and woodsy one. I'll be honest, upon initial spray I didn't love this one. It seemed a tad bit too sweet to me. I don't enjoy overly sweet fragrances. So I spray my new Voux Zingy on one arm and this on the other. But I definitely enjoying the dry down of this a lot more than Voux Zingy... This starts of loud and sweet, but has settled into a soft, almost powdery freshness. It's almost reminding me of Johnson & Johnsons Baby Talcum Powder (the white and blue one) generally I dislike powder dominated perfumes, but this one is really different and nice. Very pleasant. I feel this will be lovely during summer evenings though, this might be a little too sweet during very hot days. Overall not disappointed. I'd rate it a 7.5/10

that is so beautiful. i'm not a perfume junkie, was just looking for a cheap and nice unisex fragrance suitable for a humid summer at a customer service job: something that is unique, but public pleasing enough so i can get some tips, haha. and this one really is it. fresh and herbal-sweet at the opening with very prominent ylang-ylang (at least to my nose), dries down to a gentle, softer moss that really balances it into a unisex fragrance. the citruses here aren't gym-like fresh, but rather the citrus smell that is a part of earl grey or lemongrass green tea or something like that. more tame and warm. it is really fresh spicy, and i worried that it would be too much as i'm not heavy on spicy fragrances, but this one is great. the fragrance feels unique, but in a way that others will be able to appreciate as well. longevity is pretty mid, but i layer it with some oils and carry a small refillable bottle to respray if i feel like it's not doing it anymore. for that price — easy decision. also worthy of mention is the atomiser. the atomiser for this bottle is absolutely phenomenal. overall 10/10 for me, could pay more for this

On first spray, this immediately reminded me of Opulent Dubai but without the mango. If you like/love Opulent Dubai like I do, you will most likely feel the same about this. I really don't understand why this rendition of Qissa isn't talked about so much more! I barely smell the incense/leather to the point that if I didn't know it was in there, I would never guess it was. I do like both of those notes though, so don't take my word for it. Can't speak on longevity much because it is brand new, but I am not expecting a whole lot of longevity overall based on the reviews I have read so far and my experience with most Middle Eastern perfumes. That wont stop me from reaching for it though, I'll just spray more often. For me, this was an excellent blind buy.

Female point of view: the fragrance leans more masculine. it's elegant and i would love to smell it on a man. performance is moderate to good. the silage is mainly citric, but not in a harsh way, it has this floral, almost sweet touch to it. Close to skin you get mainly the smoky, warm scent. to me this can be worn all year long, yet it can be too warm or leathery for summer. This smells like a clean man that just shaved his beard and wore a suit to an official event. I don't hate it on me but i don't like it either, because i don't want to smell like a freshly shaved man.

Qissa Blue is a sweet and fresh fragrance that is unisex but leans more towards masculine. It has those citrus notes that are well-blended with ginger and couple of white florals. It's such a unique scent that's great for summer! I strongly agree with the other review that this is an underrated scent. I just wish it had greater projection and longevity, because it becomes a skin scent within a few hours. But with its price, I don't mind spraying again. Gorgeous bottle as well! Go get one for yourself!

Was not sure what to expect from this scent, but it smells almost identical to the intergalactic bath bomb from lush, at least to my nose. There is indeed alot of citrus, in a good way, a fresh way! There is also this note that is almost minty, just like the intergalactic bathbomb, if you like that one, you wil def enjoy this scent!! As a lush lover, I really like this perfume! Very wearable for every occasion.

In the sea of popular Middle Eastern perfumes, most of them are overhyped, while this perfume, which is almost invisible, with a not very interesting bottle, and a fairly low price, goes unnoticed. For warm summer days, I recommend everyone to buy it blindly. No mistake, fresh, light, pleasant, attractive, just a few sprays and enjoy.

I found it on sale (12€) and decided to try it. I was impressed by the opening. Sophisticated and discreet without being loud. One of the very pleasant surprises in my collection. It deserves much more than its price. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a unique summer fragrance that suits both men and women.

It arrived with 9 other fragrances i bought together, including big boys like Rayhaan Crimson, Emper Phantom My Hero, Vulcan Sable, and this one caught my attention the most. It's beautiful (and top cheap, around 13 euro)

I see people calling this masculine but it's more of a: You can find this classy scent as a blue shower gel in a fancy hotel. I'd say it's perfectly unisex. Not quite thirst quenching drinking but very refreshing.

an amazing, really underrated gem from paris corner. beautiful fruity-floral scent which lasts for 8+ hours (on my skin) and projects like a Beast for its price. on my second bottle rn i highly recommend this

Dolce Gabbana light blue for women 2001..more prominent on the apple but its the same scent...even the pyramid list is similar..inexpensive uncomplicated great for summer..unisex

Amazing! This fragrance was designed for me! Unfortunately, it doesn't last very long. It develops beautifully on my skin, and you can smell the incense throughout :)

Underrated scent. Perfectly unisex, and reminds me of sherbert. Perfect for the summer, yet also quite unique. Qissa Blue is my favourite of the 3 Qissa scents.

This is an absolutely amazing hidden gem! Blind buy safe and great, inexpensive summer banger. 8.5/10

A great easy summer unisex scent!!

Unisex scent but leaning a little masculine to my nose (with the leather scent obvious in the dry down). It is very nice. My son and my partner like this one as well and borrow it. I initially bought Qissa delicious as a blind buy and fell in love with that one, then bought this and the pink (Yara copy). I like all three. All were blind buys, I just wanted the set as they are very different to what I usually buy (gourmand) and wanted a change up. I recommend for sure.

A lovely -unisex- citrusy scent that can be worn year around when you want to smell fresh and clean! There is a nice balance between citruses and leather that gives you an uplifting vibe.. Definitely something different for a fresh scent in a very good way! Good longevity and projection! Recommend!

A good deal if you don’t mind a long synthetic citrus opening. It’s fresh, fruity/floral akin to drugstore shampoo/ body lotion. Slowly the Jazmin and a prominent Ylang Ylang bring some sugary sweetness that dilute (thankfully) with the incense and leather/oak moss. The dry down is much better.

It's great for hot weather. Fresh, juicy, bitter-sour. Today it was 36 degrees celsius where I live and this was the only perfume in my collection that I was able to wear without a headache.
