Qasamat Ebhar
by Rasasi
Qasamat Ebhar by Rasasi is a bright, sweet gourmand that opens with a crisp, juicy green apple and citrus, blending seamlessly into a soft, velvety base of vanilla, praline, and tonka bean. The heart reveals subtle floral notes of rose, jasmine, and iris, giving it a light, airy quality that avoids being cloying. While the apple note fades quickly, the sweetness lingers, creating a warm, intimate glow that feels both feminine and unisex. The fragrance has a creamy, soft sillage that projects moderately in the beginning, then settles into a skin-scent after a few hours, making it more suitable for cooler seasons. Despite not being classified as a long-lasting fragrance on all skin types, some report it lasting well beyond 10 hours, especially when applied to clothing. It bears a strong resemblance to Swiss Arabian Casablanca, though many find it smoother and more refined—less balsamic and more caramel-dusted—making it feel more elegant and less linear. Some consider it an accessible alternative to Mercedes-Benz Club Black, with a higher degree of sweetness and greater longevity. It’s particularly praised as a successful blind purchase, with users describing it as joyful, bright, and surprisingly resilient in performance and character.
