“I received this today and was so close to home, got it immediately after it was delivered. Upon the first spray, I immediately thought this scent smelled almost exactly like Victoire Intense by Lomani. After a short time period, the incense really starts to come into play, mainly after about 30 minutes and this is what really separates it from the VI. This scent really projects and is still quite strong so far after wearing it for about 3 hours. I decided to review this early before it fades and give it a 5 for longevity because it is still going very strong and doesn’t look like it is going to quit anytime soon. I have heard this scent doesn’t last as long as it once did since it was reformulated. If this is true, I think the original would have been a little overpowering for me personally. This is a wonderful scent and although very similar to Victoire Intense, it projects more and is just more masculine overall. If you like the sweetness of Hawas but don’t like the incense, definitely try the VI, very similar. If you are like me and enjoy the scent of VI, but you think VI would be a lot better if it was stronger, lasted much longer and was more masculine, go with Hawas.”
“Very good scent. For the price, it is a pretty good performer. I think reviews indicating this is a powerhouse that will last all day are greatly exaggerated. Everyone is different of course but in my case, it gravitates toward a skin scent in under 2 hours, sometimes less. If you are looking for a scent that is big on projection, this is probably not one for you. This scent is great but this is one for a date night or spending the evening with your significant other. I would recommend this for anyone looking for something classy whom also wants to impress in close quarters.”
