Rumz Al Rasasi 9325 Pour Lui

1) Presentation I will keep this short. It's nothing special. Really. Design may even be a bit dated, but the quality is good so I kind of like it. 7/10 2) Performance First something about the longevity. On me I get a minimum of 6-7 hours longevity from this fragrance. As for the projection I would say you get 2 hours definitely above average projection. After that of course projection is weaker but I would still say borderline between average and slightly above average. People will still notice you. Of course number of sprays will vary from person to person but my experience is for warmer weather go for 2-3 sprays. This will get the job done. Little remark: I get olfactory fatigue from this fragrance pretty fast. Only noticing it from moment to moment but I asked people and they said they can smell the fragrance. 9/10 3) Smell Short story at the beginning. The first day I wore it I was walking around in my city (and yeah that's maybe my subjective perception but I had people turning their head when walking by and no I think it was not because of something negative). I got confirmed in that later on because I went to my hair stylist and after getting my hair done a female customer and the 3 female hair stylists complimented me like crazy and asked what I was wearing ("You smell so manly" / "Wow this smell is incredible" / "The whole room where I washed your hair smelled like this and it's amazing"). I then asked what it smells like because I was very curious which notes they got from it. Well they were no experts but they all said fruity but not in a sweet cloying way, a tad bit fresh and a tart manly woodiness. Pretty good description in my opininion. Opening you get slightly harsh notes of the citrus fruits and a bit less of pineapple. Later it's pretty much a very musky/ambery/woody scent with hints of fruitiness, a bit oakmoss and leather going on in the background. Yeah it's very similar to aventus but I think it has its own place in the fragrance world. Extremely safe blind-buy imo. Try it out. 10/10 4) Versatility Very good allrounder. Can be worn by every age. Maybe for teenagers only if it's a more mature and masculine teenager. You can wear this every season even though I don't wear it in the winter time. This is a scent you can wear day time and night time. Pretty much wearable for any occasion, may it be casual or formal. "Outfit-versatility" (many don't consider this but I think it's important). It's a bit more of a classy scent but I mentioned you can wear it casual and also formal. The issue is that it depends on what is casual for you. If it's "casual chic" and timeless fashion go for it. If you wear skinny jeans, yeezys and oversized shirts for example (not an expert for that kind of fashion) I would say this scent won't fit you. 9/10 5) Overall Conclusion Get it. It's nice, compliment factor is high and it's super affordable. I think I paid about 30€ for 50ml and it's an edp concentration by the way. With that being said I give it an overall 9/10 EDIT: I was not using this fragrance for a while now. Just „re-smelled“ it after using Aventus for a period of time. I find it still to be a similar scent, but my main problem is the prominent leather note which I get out of this. Today I would not rate it that good, even though it is a good fragrance. I would say not 100% blind buy, but if you love/like the Aventus vibe this will probably be a fragrance you could blind buy. If you want a very close clone to Aventus I would say there are other fragrances that are more fitting.

So....fragrantica finally got to listing this one, no sorry I shouldn't be moaning they've responded pretty quickly it's only been FOUR YEARS! Anyway, I wrote a review at the time which I tried to spread via the forums, I can't remember exactly what I said but it was likely...."This smells a lot like Aventus." and it's true it does but when I first smelled it, either I'd forgotten what Aventus was like and didn't make the connection or I had some degree of nasal fatigue that day. The point is I liked it enough to purchase and it was only upon arriving home that I began to get the Creed connection. Since then we've had many reviews and people discovering this scent as an Aventus clone or alternative but in truth batches of Aventus seem to be so variable the dopplegangers evoke many different qualities from many different batches. This one I'd say is a very rich, deep and thicker incarnation of this 'genre' for want of better terms. One of the other Rumz (the one with the cheetah on) reminds me a lot of Black Afgano and this even has more of that deep leathery, woody texture, with pretty intense birch and cedar. This is not to say that 9325 isn't musky or pineapply because it has that going for it too. It's weird because although very similar and cheaper than Aventus I still own and enjoy both because it is mildly different enough to do so. For those who just want a good clone at a cheap price this is a must have. I'm definitely not one of those people who is bitter because they bought Aventus at full price and desperately defend it at all costs when people even mention clones they like better. It's all personal preference, and I enjoy this but genuinely prefer my bottle of Aventus. I can't even give a decent explanation as to why? I just prefer the smell. If If my arm was twisted I'd say this feels a bit heavier and clunkier than the Creed which can be cloying and annoying but when Applied sparingly is heavenly stuff, I'm just not as passionate about this one. So performance wise this is superb as you'd expect and 100% worth adding to your wardrobe...Simple.

Scent profile between Cedrat Boise and Mont Blanc Explorer IMO... I'm a little disappointed because I blind bought it & by mistake they sent me the wrong one so be careful! .. there are two of them look the same only the number is different... I wanted Rumz Al Rasasi 9453 Pour Lui Rasasi (inspired by Black Afghano) but they sent me Rumz Al Rasasi 9325 Pour Lui Rasasi(this one inspired by Fking Creed AV)... I opened it and used it & can't return it to the local seller... I have to go personally to the store in a different area far from where I live..and it's cheap so I'm keeping it ..its not bad.. I like it! But I already own MB explorer which is very similar to this but performs differently. The performance of Rasasi Rumz is good... around 90 minutes average projection & lasts around 6 hours on the skin. Price: 5o ML 25$ 7.5/10 👉my new gym fragrance..grocery shopping.. walking around the block.. 🤷🏻 Update: I left this to sit for a couple of months and this has improved and it feels more defined now ! It becomes sweeter more lemony I love it ! 8/10🤍 now I would say this is closer to Cedrat Boise not Mont blanc explorer. I recommend it. Update 2 : I wore this at 6:00 am the temperature was 8°c very cold windy day and this smelled unbelievably fersh and beautiful! I love it, it's smoky, sweet and fresh ... amazing in cold weather! And it's somehow different a bit from Mont Blanc Explorer ... if you love this DNA in general there is no harm to own both.

I’ve sampled several Rasasi fragrances over time, and I generally think they made great scents. This is no exception. Opening with a spicy and sweet mixture of black pepper, pineapple and citruses, Rumz Al, gave me the impression of a night on the town for the gentleman who’s dressed well and looking to impress. The projection is perfect for getting noticed but is also respectful and doesn’t attempt to smother anyone. On my skin, the heart of the fragrance was less discernible, but I could easily smell the flowers on paper. After awhile, I could smell the ambergris, cedar and oakmoss but these are all balanced by the flower notes. The citrus and pineapple seemed to last a really long time for me. The end of this rounds off nicely - a sort of salty, earthy mix of ambergris, oakmoss, leather and patchouli. Absolutely gorgeous fragrance and price-tag.

Cutting right to the chase here: this is the best Aventus clone I've tried. Granted, I've only tried a few - Armaf CDNI Man, Insurrection II Pure, and this - but Rasasi's "Zebra" offering beats out those other two pretty comfortably, in my experience. It's less synthetic smelling than CDNIM (though perhaps with less of the smoky accord) and a far better performer than Pure. In fact, the only downside has nothing to do with the fragrance itself: it's only available in 50 ml helpings. Rasasi fragrances can be a nuisance to find for US buyers like myself, so I wish this one came in 100 ml bottles. It's still worth it though. Performance is such that you're only going to need 2-3 sprays (though as previous comments say, olfactory fatigue happens easily with this fragrance). A great take on Aventus from Rasasi.
