Qasamat Rasana

I was gifted Rasasi Qasamat Rasana in January 2023 by my wife, and since then, it has become my most-used fragrance (only have about 1 ml of this juice left). This is also the perfume that made me appreciate perfumery and fall in love with perfumes in general. Scent Profile Qasamat Rasana is a beautiful creamy blend of woods and fruits, and slight hint of musky notes at the base. It’s one of the most masterfully blended scents in my collection, and I often struggle to pick out individual notes in this fragrance. To my nose, the opening is a lovely burst of sweet, candy-like fruits / citrus which I assume is due to the apple and lemon accords. It reminds me of mixed fruit jam, but it’s not overly sweet or cloying. As the fragrance settles after an hour, the fruity jammy sweetness combines with the sandalwood and amber like sweetness which then stays as the main character of this fragrance all through the end. Although leather is listed as one of the notes, I don’t pick up on it at all—especially not the bitter that is found in fragrances like Ahmed’s Leather, Maison Alhambra Toscano Leather or SF Intense Leather. I’ve heard people compare Qasamat Rasana to Mancera’s Cedrat Boise, but I can’t personally comment on that since I haven’t tried the original. That said, Rasana holds its own as a sophisticated and beautifully balanced fragrance. Performance: Projection - Average for about 2 hours, Longevity - 8 hours on skin, becomes a skin scent after 4 hours. However, this clings onto fabric and can last a full 24 hours on clothes. Overall, Rasasi Qasamat Rasana is a regal, sophisticated and uplifting perfume that is super versatile and can be worn across all seasons and occasions. It has an air of elegance and refinement that never fails to boost my mood. I’m definitely planning to grab a backup bottle during my next trip to the Gulf.

This is the good stuff. I see that people have wrote reviews on this page about Qasamat Bareeq and this one has nothing to do with it or MKF 540. There is four fragrances in this line and in this review is only about the Rasana-version. Rasasi Qasamat Rasana: Presentation: One of the best Rasasi presentations in my opinion. I love the bottle desing and it is very heavy for a 65ml bottle. Its great quality and for the money I haven't seen anything like this. Juice: I have been using this one for a week now and this went streight to my favorite fragrance from the house of Rasasi(my favorite house with Chanel). This also beats every other fragrance that I have landed my nose on and I have smelled alot, like really alot. This have super fruity opening but its not too sweet. It also has like premium "apple cider" vibe that I really like. Quality is top notch for the money. This juice could be sold as Chanels fragrance but thank god for us consumers it isnt. And for a fresh sweet fragrance this lasts. Over 12 hrs on my chest. I did go nose blind after 4-5 hrs. but my fiance said that she could easly smell it after 12 hrs when she came home. For who? This is very unisex. I'm 24 years old guy and I don't see why any women couldn't wear this. Overall: 9+ Presentation: 9+ Juice: 9 1/2 Longevity: 9

I have just received this upon blind buying. On first impression, it is nice. My bottle perhaps has to macerate because I would say it is quite weak compared to my expectations from what I have heard and does not project. I can see similarities to other perfumes but none to Creed Aventus for Her and I do not understand that comparison. This is definitely not a dupe for that. Al Haramain is the place to go if you want something that actually smells like Creed. To me, this smells similar to Jimmy Choo Urban Hero, if that perfume had bergamot and Apple and less “shoe polish” smell and more oud/incense. It also has better silage than that perfume. I would say there are also similarities between this and Parfums De Marley Greenley but I prefer this. On the negative side, it can give a bit of a car fragrance vibe. The biggest negative though is that it isn’t particularly strong. I am going to leave it for a few weeks to see if this improves. I think this would suit a person who enjoys fresh, citrusy, woody perfumes. It is unisex but to me, leans more masculine. There are no floral nor sweet notes in this and it is not spicy. If you want someone to smell you from even only a foot away, this probably isn’t the best choice for you (based on how it is immediately out of the box)

Definitely NOT an Aventus or Cedrat Boise clone. It's not close. I haven't smelled Scent of Peace or Aventus For Her so I can't speak to those. What this does remind me of is a softer, more unisex take on Dunhill's Century that replaces much of the woods in the base with a big, fluffy musk note. It softens up the citruses in the opening and makes the fragrance smell very pleasing and inoffensive overall. I could almost call it a "cozy summer fragrance." There is no oud detectable whatsoever so don't let that scare you off - I'd say just about anyone could wear this, man or woman, any age range, any situation but preferable to warmer/moderate weather. Projection is stronger than expected for the first hour or so and it lasts a good 9-10 hours on my skin. If you are having olfactory fatigue, try giving yourself a couple sprays under your shirt rather than on your neck; it's the type of fragrance that smells much better in the air, getting wafts throughout the day, than one you want to stick your nose in repeatedly. Remember - wear the fragrance, don't let the fragrance wear you!

Qasamat Rasana has a beautiful sheer quality, like buttery yellow light shining through a translucent curtain on a sunny morning. It's more than the sum of its parts. Yes, there's plenty of citrus (bergamot and lemon), a bit of sweet-tart apple, but some other stuff that makes it interesting: cypriol ("earthy," say the notes), gentle leather, and refined sandalwood and non-pencil shavings cedar, very elegant. But it all blends so beautifully together that it's like a dream -- AND it persists! I'm not familiar with either Hacivat or Aventus so I have nothing to compare it to, but this stuff is gorgeous and a great bargain (in the $20 range). I could see this being a signature scent for someone who still does that sort of thing -- it's just THAT good! Definitely unisex, maybe leaning slightly more feminine, to my nose. Highly recommended for citrus and modern chypre lovers (like people who enjoy Coco Mademoiselle, etc.).
