Pacific

Well, where do I start?, this is like a way more pleasant hawas that can also be worn by older people, it's a really good perfume very similar to other perfumes but knowing that this is 2x cheaper than hawas, I wouldnt choose a better one to buy considering hawas is for younger people and many people I've met didn't like hawas saying it's too sweet and plumy despite it being a pretty good and longer lasting scent, it's soapy and good and with time it becomes better. The only issue with the scent is that it had a synthetic opening but after some time it's really good. I would say it lasts 6-7 hours on skin and more than a day on clothes can even last a week, which is pretty good considering it's a fresh fragrance, if they add a more musky note besides amber it would last longer without making it ruin the DNA of the fragrance. The sillage is pretty good it's strong I sprayed it and my brother who was like 2-3 meters from me smelt it, not bad sillage, it's strong. I would recommend it if u just want a budget scent for the summer it's really good. Many people might disagree with me but everyone smells something and everyone doesn't get the same bottle so ye.

First spray and I thought it was Invictus! Probably one of the best smelling Invictus dupes I have smelled so far. I bought it under the impression that it was just a good freshie you can’t go wrong with, and it absolutely is! I had no clue about the whole inspired by Invictus, but I asked my wife what it smelled like without seeing the bottle and she said Invictus but on the soapy side, just by a little bit though. It’s starts out with a strong fruity citrus smell, then starts the dry down into a fresher citrus soapy smell, like lemon and mandarin, then a final dry down adds a hint of ginger and a slight bit of wood but you can hardly smell the wood. Final dry down would be a Citrus, soapy, and wood dry scent with the citrus being the dominant one out of the bunch! Great fresh scent for all year around. A strong 4-6 hour scent and could go longer with an extra spray. 9/10

I got this Pacific and Ocean Rush for 23dollar for each one of them. Pacific really have good performance than OR. This opens up like Hawas or Invictus edt, very citrusy, bright, fresh aquatic and a lil bubblegum. The fresh natural-smelling citrus with a touch of sweet cardamom in the opening gives it a little depth and longevity. The drydown of lavender and amber really stick for a long time in AC room and project well during hot weather. Very good for blind buy and dumb reach perfume. I wanna talk about Ocean Rush but it didnt make it in here, so I just keep it simple. The opening for OR is just as the same as Afnan 9am Dive but it only stick around for 4 -5 minutes, then it start change to the drydown. From my nose, its drydown is musk heavy, almost animalic but stick for 4-5 hours.

#1237 in my "Tour de Fragrance" This is a very bright freshie, all in on the citrus. Definitely Summer wear. Most scents in this category have woody notes that this lacks, otherwise it reminded me of Lanvin's freshies, "L'Homme", "Homme Sport", "Eclat d'Arpege", Marina de Bourbon "Le Prince Charmant" and twenty plus Nauticas. But it's really more like Lattafa "Ansaam Silver" and Antonio Puig "Aqua Quorum", just sharper. I like it a lot. You can't expect great performance from any freshie and you don't get it here. You'll have to hit this repeatedly on a hot day. But it's versatile and inoffensive. Last summer I kept a bottle of Nautica "Voyage" in the car. This scent will fill that role this summer.

TL;DR - great base freshy that is fine solo but works best with more layered complexity. Very surprising freshy. I thought it was gonna be redundant but it hits all the spots I need / want it to. Could use more spice, maybe a clove or cinnamon under that current cardamom. I've begun layering this one with more complex spicy / creamy notes, think D&G Capri In Love, and it's bringing out the lavender and cypress much more. This take in the reviews that the amber is too animalic - its not wrong but I think it's misinterpreted and folks are getting that tinge from cypress amber combo clashing with the dry citrus.

Finally fragrantica adds rayhaan pacific, geez. I will say this fragrance smells exactly like fresh laundry straight out of the dryer with a touch of sweetness. Such a nice scent profile with moderate longevity. 9.5/10 casual wear, blind buy safe, definitely worth it for this price point.

After 6 months of maceration: If you remove the plum and boost the cardamom note from the Hawas it becomes this. I luv it a lot as much as i luv HAWAS. Sweeter than Hawas but almost same quality aroma chemicals. Beast mode with 8+ hours and 2+ hours of loud projection 8.5/10

Kinda reminds me of Hawas but a bit sweeter. Longevity is really decent last 5 to 6 hours on a temperate environment. Good summer fragrance and I can say it's cheaper in other countries bought mine for 65 NZD :)

Good fresh fragrance good sillage, good scent, if u got a bad bottle just let it macerate and it will get better because that's what I did and now it's much better, it's only 20 bucks so would highly recommend

This shit smells like soap like just soap like it just made me regret ever buying this

Smells fantastic but the longevity is kinda mid. Go with Hawas instead.

Don’t listen to the haters this smells great

After maceration this things lasts forever

My endowed, glorious king, forgive me for every single word I had spoken against you I fucking HATED this thing, especially when I first got it. It was alcohol, mineral water and pure regret in a bottle. This thing was just a stain on my shelf that I couldn't get rid of because people were selling this thing left and right on the market. And the bottle is just horrible. The cap is just chromed plastic that stopped gripping down on the atomizer like a month after using it, and the atomizer itself started chipping. And so, like any good little frag fiend, I went to my knees, prayed to jeremiah fragrance (the number one fragrance influencer who follows the teaching of Christ, peace be upon him) and waited for months. And oh boy, it's good. Real good. At some point the juice turned yellow, and it developed this oddly sweet scent out of nowhere. Now, it's a really nice barbershop fragrance that opens with an amazing mineral top note that has an idea of green in it, and dries down to an almost bubble-gummy sweetness. Even if you forgot about the price, this thing slaps, and I would never have guessed it was anything under 60 dollars. Lasts a respectable few hours on my skin, though at this price, respraying is welcome. 75/100, absolute banger of a blind grab for pretty much anything outside of a cold day.

For my first frag ever, I got Rayhaan Pacific about a year ago. The fragrance has an explosion of tart and sweet citruses at the top, which can be quite cloying and synthetic at first, but on my skin after about 10 minutes its a decent mix of fresh, sweet, and a good deal of tartness. I smell a lot of the citrus throughout the duration of the fragrance, with maybe slight inklings of the lavender, amber and cypress as it sits on skin for a few hours. The biggest issue is that synthetic smell that persists for most of the duration. I got this for $20 and for the price point I would not buy another bottle, but I might recommend it to someone starting out in their fragrance journey. I would say that over the past year it has lost its appeal to me, I am not sure if I just grew tired of it, or if maceration tainted the scent a little for me. I find that many scents change quite a bit on skin compared to clothes or test strips, but this one doesn't differ much at all. Smell - 5/10 Performance - 7/10 Price - 8/10 Overall - 6/10

This was a blind buy and I agree with the others here. Pacific has strong Hawas vibes. I already own Hawas For Him and Pacific is about 85% similar. Especially, at the drydown. It is slightly sweeter and does not project as well as Hawas. But I actually like the scent better over Hawas. In the air, it has that luxury soap-ish vibe with a fresh and slightly fruity-citrus scent. On my skin after the drydown, the scent started leaning almost towards that Versace Dylan Blue sweetness (in a muted way) while staying firmly on Hawas territory. Projection is just okay. Maybe about 2-3 feet the first hour and then it drops pretty quickly down to a skin scent at about the 4 hour mark. But as a skin scent, it lasted a while staying that way until about the 12 hour mark when it completely faded. I work in a warehouse environment and I'm looking for inexpensive "freshies" to wear for work. Pacific does exactly what I need it to do and it's a solid fragrance at a great price!

I have owned this for 3 months now. It just smells like a blue fabric softener and I have smelled both side by side. So it is easy to wear and you will smell clean(in a soft way) and a little sweet for about 6-8 hours on me. The performance is also really good for about 1.5 hours. It's perfect for work, school or the gym. For $20, it is an absolute steal. I also own Hawas Ice and don't regret owning both in my collection as I can see myself wearing them in different occasions.

Great cologne for the price - not super strong but not weak either. Super clean and fresh with a tiny touch of sweet. Can’t see too many people not liking this summer fragrance especially for the price - worth it.

Just a fresh, simple and boring dumb reach as they say. Perfect for when you just want to put something on to smell nice and clean. Yes it is copying the invictus dna but its just easy to wear.

It's okay for the price. I would go with Armaf Aura though because it is less sweet and performs a bit better. Still, a decent dumb-reach fragrance. 6/10
