Shaghaf Pour Femme
by Rasasi
Shaghaf Pour Femme is a richly layered, feminine fragrance centered around a bright opening of lemon, almond, and coffee, leading into a sumptuous blend of white florals—jasmine, lily, tuberose—and iris. The scent deepens with a warm, creamy base of musk, vanilla, sandalwood, and amber, creating a smooth, enveloping character that feels both indulgent and sophisticated. It bears strong similarities to Carolina Herrera Good Girl, particularly in its sweet, powdery, and musky profile, but with a slightly softer, more refined edge. The fragrance performs exceptionally well, lasting up to 8 hours with moderate to strong sillage, making it especially suitable for cooler months. While it maintains good projection and a charming drydown, some users note that in high humidity or with heavy application, the almond and vanilla notes can become cloying or even overly sweet—comparable to a 'bug spray' effect—though this tends to dissipate in drier conditions.
Pros
- +Strong sillage and long-lasting performance, making it suitable for daily wear and special occasions.
- +Smooth, feminine, and well-blended profile that feels refined and luxurious, with a transition from fresh to warm and floral.
- +Affordable price point makes it an accessible alternative to high-end perfumes like Good Girl or Jasmin Cardamom.
Cons
- −In warm or humid climates, the fragrance can become overly sweet and sticky, particularly due to the almond and vanilla notes.
- −May feel too heavy or cloying when over-sprayed, especially on clothing.
- −Some users find the dry down too intense or syrupy, which may limit wider appeal across a broader range of preferences.
