Potion Master Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Going by memory only..... More incensey, in a very sexxxxay way, and not as dark/smokey as Beyond the Veil....does not have the sweetness of Majmua Sultana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luna65 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 For me it's a bit more reminscent of something like Naughy on the Nile. As I think I said in my original post, it's just like burning incense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potion Master Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I was going for something similar to the original Moon Goddess: Isis, with Naughty on the Nile. I do not recall adding any sweetness to Raqs Sharqi, while the others are sweetened with dark sugars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luna65 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Right; I just meant in terms of the incense evocation itself, but definitely as you say, without sweetness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raq On Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Since several of you are saying this is coming off light on you, and it is coming off light on me too (of course on Danna, it's overpowering) I am going to amp this one up a bit. I think the dilution mellowed it more than I expected over the weeks that it matured. I'm going to double up the recipe without adding any further dilution, so anything ordered from here on should be quite a bit stronger, ok? Â wait- this is still availble? I didn't bother w/ trying a sample b/c I thought It was sold out!! If I order a sample will it be accurate in terms of how it wears on my skin and just have longer staying power in the new form?

Raq On Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 CRAP I got all hopeful reading the above posts, it sounded like it was still around somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
