Qasamat Bareeq

Qasamat Bareeq by Rasasi is a bold, spiced fragrance with a rich caramel backbone and medicinal saffron notes, evoking the opulent intensity of Baccarat Rouge 540. It opens with a crisp, soapy freshness from green apple, bergamot, and artemisia, transitioning into a deeply layered composition dominated by warm leather, amber, and sweet caramel. The scent maintains a clean, aromatic quality despite its intensity, with a subtle metallic and musky depth that adds complexity. It lingers impressively on skin and fabrics for hours, projecting moderately to strongly, especially in colder weather. While not a perfect clone, it offers a distinct interpretation—more accessible and less chemically invasive than the original—making it a compelling, cost-effective alternative for fans of BR540’s spicy-sweet character. The fragrance is widely embraced as unisex, favored for evening wear and cold-weather seasons. Its projection and longevity are notably strong, with most users reporting long-lasting performance and moderate to strong sillage. However, the balance of sweet and spicy notes tends to be polarizing: some find it overly intense or medicinal, while others appreciate its depth and elegance. It is best experienced as a layered, moderate application, avoiding overuse due to its powerful presence. Overall, Qasamat Bareeq stands out due to its excellent value for money, strong staying power, and unique blend of sweet, spicy, and leathery accords. While it may not fully satisfy those seeking an exact twin to BR540, it delivers a satisfying, opulent alternative that resonates with fans of gourmand-woody fragrances.
