Najma Capella

6/4/25 edit i can no longer detect the patchouli on dry down. it's still a solid mix between V28 and VCRS, but leans more heavily towards VCRS. the warmth of V28 is still there. this one is interesting. i’m definitely going to let it sit and come back to this, and hopefully have some good news. smells like Vanilla 28 at first, dries down more like VCRS. totally agree with the first review posted here - bubblegum/jellybean & pear are prominent here post dry-down. it becomes much lighter. i suppose you could really wear this year-round. i wouldn’t spray too much; it’s strong at first, but dries down pretty smooth. longevity remains to be seen. not a love for now. i wish the patchouli would chill out a bit more. we’ll see.

Full disclosure I have only just received this and sprayed it on clothes and skin a few hours ago, to me it’s absolutely V28, I’m not getting vcrs yet. For the price I paid, around €15 it’s absolutely a good option for the price.

This fragrance is VERY light! You can barely smell it with 5 sprays. I most likely will be returning. I'll give it 2 week to macerate. But it has more of a sweet skin scent. The OG is way better than this unfortunately. Confection and the Kayali are better BUT the best is Risala Elite Epic Mirage. Don't waste your money I fear. I will post an update.

I don't detect any notes of pear, marshmallow, bubblegum, or caramel! Oh my gosh!! This perfume reminds me of the Avon perfumes my grandmother used in Brazil, and which I still smell on some ladies today. I only smell the floral notes! This perfume is 100% the same as Ramsh Diva Zimaya! Maybe it's on my skin, but for me, this perfume is a no-no.

This is a strange one because I was not expecting V28.. Will have to see how this matures but I have V28 on one hand and Najma on the other hand and they smell the same. Now that it's drying down there is a slight turn to Candy Rock. Can't wait to see where it ends up but this is V28 DNA 100%. It's Day 3 of opening it.

HOLY DELICIOUS!! Very close to V28 when sprayed. I don’t see much of a difference between the two- to be honest. V28 is my SIGNATURE SCENT so I don’t mind having all scents similar.

Definitely Rock sugar to my nose. I have V28 as well as all her other creations but to me this is VCRS smelling them side by side.

This fragrance is very light. You can smell the violet, bubblegum, and pear the most.
