Valhalla

Finally got a sample of angels share paradis and can compare the two side by side. I’m gonna get this out the way this is definitely not a 1:1. However you can definitely tell it’s an inspired by and they are very similar. In the opening, they both open with a VERY sweet (honestly quite overpowering and not very appealing imo) raspberry that i honestly find a little medicinal in both. After about 15 mins the raspberry in AS paradis is almost completely gone and you’re left with a more woody angels share with the slightest hint of raspberry. With Valhalla you get pretty much that same opening, but the raspberry settles down ALOT and blends really well with the oak, Tonka, and cinnamon and the raspberry is a lot more prominent and lasts for the entire life of Valhalla. Additionally i will say the performance for Valhalla is absolutely NUCLEAR. I wore 5 sprays to work 3 on my neck, 2 in my clothes and i was still receiving compliments after a full 8 hour shift and when i went to wash my shirt 3 days later i could still smell it. (TLDR) not a 1:1, Valhalla is a fruitier version but i honestly can’t even say i prefer one over the other in terms of smell they both smell great. Because of the absurd price difference i would just get Valhalla especially since you get a full 100ml instead of a 50ml

Esse é aquele tipo de fragrância que entra no ambiente antes de você e fica mesmo depois que você sai. Doce na medida certa, envolvente, com um fundo quente que gruda na pele e chama atenção sem precisar gritar. O mais absurdo nele é o equilíbrio. Ele consegue ser sedutor sem cair no óbvio. Tem aquela vibe magnética, quase viciante, que puxa quem tá perto. Não é juvenil demais, não é sério demais, ele acerta exatamente no meio, e é isso que faz funcionar em praticamente qualquer situação. E aqui vem o ponto que pouca gente fala: é totalmente underrated. Não recebe o hype que deveria, não aparece tanto nas listas populares, mas entrega mais que muito perfume famosinho por aí. É aquele segredo que quem conhece não larga. Versatilidade aqui não é papo furado. Quer usar pouco? Fica mais elegante, controlado, quase misterioso. Quer pesar a mão? Ele vira um monstro de presença, mais quente, mais chamativo, mais provocante. Literalmente depende de como você usa. Fixação segura, projeção que marca território sem sufocar, e um cheiro que dificilmente alguém vai esquecer rápido. Resumo direto: Cheiro viciante, presença forte, versatilidade real, e injustamente subestimado. Valhalla é 10/10 sem esforço.

WOW JUST WOW!!! Rayhaan just did it again with this masterpiece !! Generational Run !!!I won't be surprise if they Win Next Year's Award !!!! I did 6 sprays on skin and 5 on my hoodie before work and after an hour when I arrived at work ..Compliments after compliments one said I smell like freshly baked cherry pie hahaha .. take note I live in NYC and It's January and 34 degrees very perfect in a cold winter weather , I never smelled Angel Share Paradise but If this "inspired" version is already BEASTIFUL ( yeah I collab a Word like Rayhaan and Legion collab haha) That boozy Raspberry note after spray is sensational kinda smell like Cherry Coca Cola and the tonka bean , praline , sandalwood dry down smell gourmandy in my nose .. This is so Good I might Purchase The Real Thing!! This is a Big Win Blind buy

10/10 fragrance Very very close to the OG paradis would say way closer than royal blends version. Strong raspberry opening with the mixture of cognac blended beautifully must say this opening does not weaken or taper off as the hours go by this juice lasts all day long and with strong projection and a very strong silage, in talking you walk by somewhere and you can smell it 5-10minutes after still there (other people around me told me). Always get asked what I’m wearing when I spray this nothing but complements, would go to say though this is a great date night fragrance. You can rock it everyday but it has become a signature scent in my collection and wear for special occasions or when I want to smell intriguing. Eue de Ragnar done beautiful work with this 10/10 scent man

Proud to say Ragnar brang me along for the US release of this over at BeautyHouse and gifted me a bottle. While he was exiting the car and i was about 5 feet away from him I smelled him and I asked “Bro what is that oh my god” he told me “it’s Valhalla mate” So the first thing i can say is the compliment factor and projection is 10/10 As for the scent profile matching what it’s suppose to be We compared that day as well And it’s safe to say. Ragnar hit the hammer on the nail and matched it 1:1 But made it even STRONGER!! I mean it lasted 24 hours on my shirt 12 on my skin. And most of that time it projected. So yah, this is blind buy worthy Along with the REST of Ragnars “legion” brand. This is a winner. - @CologneConfessions

I just got the perfume today. At first, Iam still confused about the top notes because sometimes they’re there and sometimes they disappear. A few minutes later I smelled it again, its something unique, but I can’t smell the rose. The dry down is amazing — super woody with a little bit of sweetness from tonka bean and praline. For me, the dry down is the best part. It can last 8 hours on my skin with about 3 hours of strong projection. If you’re a fan of woody scents, get this. But if you want something similar to AS Paradis, get Royalblend Sequoia (weak AF).

Rayhaan has become one of my favorite houses. Valhalla is such an addictive winter scent. The raspberry really stands out here; it is delivered covered in seductive cognac and liquor, which prevents it from smelling like cough syrup, making it feel rich and elevated instead. In the dry down, oak, sandalwood, and praline take over without undermining the raspberry, which remains the star of the show. 🍷🥃🍫

It's definitely sweet, which I'm always a fan of. It's not super booze heavy but it's absolutely in there. It's comforting & lovely for the winter. My lady who usually can't stand sweet fragrances and liked it a lot. It's strong and lasts forever. Rayhaan never misses with longevity Edit: Valhalla is quickly becoming one of my favorite, specially for winter. So good

This fragrance is amazing—boozy and sweet! The raspberry touch really makes it so good and addictive. I wouldn’t recommend it for summer, but for winter and any other season. Do I like it? Yes Would I wear it? Yes Does it last? 7 hours Did it blow me away? Yes Safe blind purchace? Yes Worth the price? Yes Is it unique? Yes Overall rating: 9.3/10

This is amazing, way better then any other angel share clone. It starts off tart, while being slightly fresh and boozy. Comapred to my something like khamrah this is legues ahead not scratchy. Getting to mid - dry down u get that apple pie vibe but its better then that, the rose sticks around and the wisky is beautiful. 9/10 Got it for 30$ 😋

I adore Angel's Share Paradis. It's a sweet, bozzy and fruity type of fragrance for men and women. Unfortunately, it's an expensive fragrance. But Valhalla is super close to Paradis. In my opinion, it's Rayhaan's best fragrance. I also have Royal Blend Sequoia and Sharaf Divine. But i think Valhalla is the closest and strongest.

For the price, this is legit one of the best fragrances money can buy. I got mine for $50 and right out of the box, the performance and scent profile were absolutely beautiful. High end smell/performance for an amazing price, get your hands on this while you can. Follow my tiktok for fragrance content: nerolicannoli

I will never get over how good this fragrance is. It is extremely close to the original easily within the 95% range. Someone who owns the original asked me how many sprays I’d put on thinking I was wearing the original. He said he was going to get a bottle of this straight away. Well done Rayhaan and Ragnar!

My first spray was a bit of disappointment because it felt like cough syrup, when I checked the manufactured date it was 11/25, I allowed it macerate for two months, boom this is a banger and I'm buying it again because it's an amazing fragrance I wouldn't want to miss in my collection.

very good fragrance, more woody than boozy it's like a slight sweet raspberry wood all throughout the drydown, lasted 20 hrs on my skin jesus. i liked royal blend sequoia's scent and quality better but the difference is very small like 5-10% difference. this is cheaper as well.

Not as boozy as the OG, but its more easy to wear. It is more fruity and cinnamon is more prominent to my nose. Compared to other dupes this is more well rounded and smooth. Very good for winter or nighttime wear. It smells like a spiced raspberry jam diluted by some alcohol.

This is one of the best Rayhaan Fragrances to ever come out. Love it's vibe, and the magnetic bottle cap sold me away lol. Not a safe blind buy but if you like something that's on the dark side with a warm dry down then this is the one for you. Would I buy this again? Yup!

These middle eastern frags are really winning for me right now. As for Rayhaan I have 2 frags from them crimson and this one. Crimson was good but this one is great. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a nice cold weather fragrance this one is a 10 for me.

Compared to sequoia, this one is maybe more youthful, less woody and boozy. This is straight up juicy, fruity raspberry, a lil bit sour with toned down booziness, so good so far

One of the best Rayhaan fragrances. The raspberry note really stands out. It fills a room easily, and women love it. Absolute steal for the price.

I really love this i get the raspberry and like some bubble gum smell for me its like jpg ultramale but less vanilla and raspberry instead of pear

extremamente versátil, e de todos da rayhaan, esse é o melhor, além de ser sedutor e agradavel, depende das borrifadas, serve pra tudo

Beautiful raspberry forward strong projecting fragrance! Utterly in love with it... back up bottle pending x

Excellent value, top notes linger a while, quite alcoholic, raspberry takes over until top notes settle

The best of Rayhaan. It's beautiful! I love it. Long lasting masculine! Perfection!!!!

Gorgeous raspberry note right off the bat with a great woody drydown. 8/10

Love the juzziness of the Raspberry. Think i am gonna enjoy this one

Rayhaan is one of my favorite houses right now, this is 10/10.

My new fav go to cold environment and night scent

Smells Good Cognac Good Raspberry Good Me Happy

People who are talking here about “synthetic, medicinal, cough syrup” smell just don’t understand fragrances. If you buy a strong fragrance that doesn’t disappear sooner than a fart (like most og’s do) you gotta expect that it’s not caused by magic, but they have to make it that strong- by using chemicals, which is not a problem at all but what y’all do is spray it on a surface then sniff it right away from that surface, run on fragrantica and literally mislead. If you rather sprayed it in air or let the spray on a surface dry down, there would be none of these unwanted smells. As for the scent- If treated properly like I explained, it opens mostly with cognac, maybe a bit of smoky whisky and then in the back fruity sweetness of raspberry. 5 minutes later it starts to dry down into an absolutely divine and smooth scent of fresh raspberries and smoky booze. It feels warm and fresh at the same time. Imagine being in some jazz club, drinking cognac (or whisky), eating raspberries and smoking a cigar. I would say it’s 50% raspberry, 25% boozy, and the rest mix of smoky and woody. It’s a scent you can’t go wrong with, unique, divine and definitely a compliment getter. On the other side, this frag bangs not only in the scent profile, but also in longevity and projection. 3 sprays is enough to fill a room and I’ve been told the scent stays there even a couple of minutes after I leave the room. It is quite literally an extension of a person’s strong aura that acts the same. If you spray it on your skin it will stay fully active and projecting I would say for about 6-8 hours, then it will become a bit silent but still be there for 20+ hours even after showering. You spray it in the morning then will be waking up at night still smelling it and telling yourself how damn great it smells. On clothing it stays even after washing it and fills your whole wardrobe. It acts like a demon you can’t get rid of, which for me this is the ultimate combination of a divine scent, with everlasting strenght and great price. For me it’s a 10 in all of the three categories because there is just nothing I can confront it about (and all of this is without maceration). Now, I would say it’s pretty unisex, it has both masculinity and femininity but both in healthy amounts, and if you are masculine or feminine enough, it will nicely multiply it in a healthy way. You just have to be confident, take a good care of yourself and have some class to wear it. If you have these traits, this frag will project them and you will be unforgettable. And it also doesn’t matter what age you are. In my opinion, it is mainly a cold weather frag, but could be also worn during spring thanks to the freshness of the raspberry in it. For summer I could imagine you could get away with wearing it at night on some event with high class. Other than that it’ll be too heavy for summer. For me a 10/10 fragrance. Well done Rayhaan.

This scent is very nice, but if you do not like the Angels Share boozy DNA i would stay away. I know it has been advertised as more of a fruity take on Angels Share and Paradis, but it is very cough-syrupy and less fruity floral. Once you get past that cherry cough syrup smell in the opening, it is fantastic. I wore this to work throughout the week when I first got it, and received multiple compliments each time, with someone even asking me if I had on Angels Share one time. To my nose that "fruit" cough syrup smell is super harsh, but when I had my mom smell it on a fresh spray, she just said it smelled sweet, so it may be different to each nose. Overall, I give it a good 7-8/10. It's a great winter scent that is even better layered. I wore this over top of Liquid Brun, and it smelled incredible together. Would definitely recommend, I would just be aware that to me it does smell quite cough-syrupy in the opening.

If you've smelt angels share paradie and you love it you'll love this. Opens with a stronger raspberry note with a strong cognac note that dance together strongly for the first 30 ish minutes, then as it starts to settle the woods come bursting through giving this fragrance a beautiful balance very very similar to the OG's dry down. Performance is beast mode. Bottle is slick af. 10/10 for me this upcoming fall and winter. Looking at the reviews below me i genuinely think people are insane and full of sh*t. It smells very similar to the OG and has fantastic performance, BEAST mode performance and projection. Lay off the pipe yah heffers. I totally understand that tiktok has now become the new QVC but trust me if you know you like the OG you are going to love this. Go to your local sephora. Spray it on a tester strip, bring it home.If you like it blind buy it and thank me later

I can only compare this to the other CURRENT "popular" clones of Paradis - Fire On Ice and Royal Blend Sequoia. To me, its better than Fire On Ice (a very feminine version of this DNA in my opinion) but not as good as Sequoia. This is loud, strong, with a very sweet and tangy raspberry. I hate to use the word "synthetic", because I am aware that most of the popular brands out there are quite often using synthetic ingredients, but this one is very in-your-face and just feels very rough and almost chemically. It does smell very nice but if you are looking for a Paradis alternative that could be masculine or unisex, then Royal Blend Sequoia is the clear winner here.

Blind bought this not knowing how it smells at all, it smells like angel share but more boozy and allot smoother and less gourmand. very nice fragrance it doesn’t last that long on me but it’s projects so much it’s not even funny. I tried something out of curiosity, if you have anything that smells like LV Ombré Nomad, layer it with valhaala and thank me later. it smells like a rich sophisticated and sweet scent like idk how to describe how good it is, you just have to try it. Best layering combo i’ve ever tried in my life and now it smells like a million bucks and very unique.

This is a beast performer! I received a decant from a friend to try and I wasn’t disappointed. This stuff lasts overnight I’m impressed. Definite shades of AS DNA with a boozy fruit note - but in a good way. An evening fragrance for me though as i suspect that wearing it for work would be quite divisive if go got this over the og purely for £££ reasons as I don’t think I’d wear it enough compared to other fragrances I own.

HEAR ME OUT. A lot of people want this to be a dupe of angels share paradis but what it really is is Black Opium over Red ... for men. It comes off a little cough syrup-y at first but dries down nice. More of a just a berry note rather than raspberry. I pick up cherry, one person I had smell it thought it was blueberry.

It's good but too sweet in the dry down for me. Layered with Gucci Guilty Absolute and it is frickin amazing. I also feel like some extra boozy would tone down the sweetness, perhaps with some Gentleman Privee.

Fruity raspberry that fades into.. not sure.. The opening is yummy, but after 1-2 hours the rest falls apart

Ragnar has got it spot on with the paradis dna, I do feel this is more femine than the OG though .

Honest to god If I had the money to splurge I would’ve bought Paradis by now. Absolute masterpiece of a fragrance. But since I don’t have the money to splurge I wanted to get a placeholder to scratch that itch first and this... didn’t do any of that. Scent: Rather than that beautiful, tart raspberry in the opening, I feel like the opening for Valhalla comes off more like a synthetic and sweet cherry that some people have mentioned in their reviews. You get the cognac but it’s not necessarily boozy as well. Overall, not much depth to my nose and not a very good clone of the OG in my opinion as it’s just not that well blended and the ingredients don’t smell that high quality, which is to be expected since it’s literally a tenth of Paradis’ price. Performance: Valhalla, much like the most of Rayhaan’s perfumes, lasts quite a long time on my skin and the projection is outstanding. That overwhelmingly sweet raspberry-cherry smell keeps on catching my nose and everyone around me for a solid 9 hours MINIMUM. Versatility: Just like Angels’ Share Paradis, wouldn’t recommend for any seasons out of fall and winter due to its sweetness. The lack of booziness does help make it slightly more usable for spring and summer nights as it’s just like a sweet clubbing scent for teens but even if it’s not as good as the OG, the situations you’d use them in are virtually the same. Scent: 5.5/10 Performance: 9/10 Versatility: 3.5/10 Personal Score: 5.5/10 Very affordable compared to what it’s cloning but the scent isn’t really comparable in my opinion. Update 30/11/25: Gave it away to one of my homies after my lovely girlfriend bought me Paradis. It genuinely doesn’t come close in terms of quality.

Very nice cap, but the cologne is extremely cloying. Will see how it does after a few months of maturating. **UPDATE** Cologne has settled a little bit. I don't get nose blind to this one for some reason and that's probably driving my main complaint. I think it's nice/ok. Good for date night.

Strong feminine leaning raspberry and liquor smell. I wouldn't wear this or recommend it to a fellow fella. Smells like my mom.

Harsh, artificial, fruity ester overload with a powdery base. Iris? 4/10.

Cognac like smell. But, not boozey thou. Cognac and sweet spicey smell.

Absolute blind buy for me and a fail. My review is not based on Angel Share's Paradis, this review is just based of the scent of Valhalla itself. I really wanted to like this and wear it through this upcoming winter but unfortunately it just doesn't smell good. The opening is a strong raspberry and liquor note but as it dries down it smells very medicinal, like a cough syrup. Scent wise I give this a 3/10 - performance wise, this will last all day and projects pretty well for the first 3 hours.

I like a lot of Rayhaan stuff but this is a big miss to my nose. I get a chemical smell reminiscent of rubber cement mixed with raspberry. I think they just whiffed on the cognac note. It just smells overall very cheap to me. I'm not a fan. Firm pass.

From the moment this fragrance opens to the moment it fades, the raspberry note in this just smells too medicinal. Haven't smelt AS Paradis, but on its own I wish this was a bit boozier. Overall 6/10.

Stunningly unbalanced and synthetic. I didn't find it only "bad"; in fact, it's embarrassing. How in the world can a creative director (if Rayhaan has any at all) approve something like this?

It's more spicy, dense and creamy than RB sequoia. Though the raspberry is less pronounced in the opening Performance is similar to RB sequoia: 1.5-2 hours of medium projection.
