Vanilla, spicy, and oriental! Worth the pickup!
Tasmeem from Rasasi is a fantastic vanilla spicy oriental fragrance. While some compare to Daarej (and there is a little comparison for sure); I would say Tasmeem is denser and thicker. This fragrance is spicy, but not in the cinnamon bomb kinda way, it's the cumin and the cardamom. The combination of the vanilla, cumin and rose together, almost give this fragrance an Oud vibe; yet there is no Oud? Definitely oriental.
I don't find this fragrance cloying or powdery, and maybe this is just my skin chemistry? This is a well blended fragrance, as it's challenging to make rose masculine, but I think Rasasi succeeded with Tasmeem.
The dry-down is the best; sweet (but not too sweet), with patchouli, and the dry-down continues with the vanilla and tonka bean. The rose does head into the background on the dry-down, but the cumin is loud and clear.
I think I could wear this all year round, casually or dressed up. Weekend or work. I give this a 8 / 10 as silage is weak, projection is a little weak, and longevity average. I'm glad I added this one to my collection!
