    Bleah. I'm a newbie to fragrances, so definitely don't have a refined nose, but this simply turned me off. It starts out super strong. A blast of marischino cherries (which I don't like) and then...

    I love it butn find it way too expensive for how simple it is. to me it's a simple Cherry, almondy, tiny bit of Vanille perhaps. not very complex...but I just seem to justify buying the whole bell...

    I love the burst of fresh cherry I get upon applying this, and am charmed by the sweet, woody smoke that follows (woodsmoke is one of my very favorite smells, ever). These top notes wind together...

    I love it. It's rather pricey and hard to come by when you're not in Paris, but I say it's worth it. I love the almondy vanilla scent. I will buy it again. Without reservation.

    This is the best of the rahat loukhoum scents, in my opinion. A bit smokey, yet mostly sweet and edible. It's a sexy gourmand scent, very cozy and inviting. It's also one of the simpler SL scents,...

    The initial scent of Rahat Loukoum is like others are saying; very sweet almondy/cherry. It luckily avoids that plastic scent that POTL becomes on me. About 30 minutes into it, it develops into a...

    Sticky, cherry nougat candy smell. Not sophisticated or sexy, in my opinion.

    I dig this. Sweet cherry. If you find POTL too woody or weedy, give this a try.

    A bitter almond opening that reminds me of Amaretto liquor. Later becomes soft and fluffy and a little powdery , but not of the talcum variety. More of the dusting sugar persuasion. Sweet , but...

    It's not awful, but it's nothing special. To malign this fragrance seems wrong, but it's just not for me. The opening is lovely - a soft, doughy pastry-almond with a hint of cherry. Mmm! Then,...

    As a general disliker of gourmand and sugary sweet fragrances, I prepared myself to be overwhelmed by Rahat Loukoum's sweet notes. Indeed, it recalls cakes, cookies, and a bottle of real almond...

    Very sweet -- in both senses. Yes, it's comforting, yes, it's cosy-smelling, yes, it reminds you of hot milk/marzipan/maraschino cherries.... but after a while this all gets nauseating and you...

    Rahat has been of a love-hate thing with me since I first smelled it. I was actually really disappointed when I first sniffed it - I got the dreaded PlayDoh note. And then for some strange reason,...

    The first time I tried this I got a blast of sweet marzipan, which lasted five minutes. Then it dried down to a sweet, infinitesimally subtle vanilla. That lasted about half an hour. I was so...

    My first impression of Rahat Loukoum was a soothing, cherry-vanilla-almond fragrance. The cherry is very fleeting, and disappears in less than a minute, but the vanilla and almond (with a hint of...
