Just Azraq

Scent Breakdown

Just Azraq opens with a blast of lemon and pepper – pretty close to Victory Elixir. The incense is dialed down compared to the original, which is a bummer. It's a bit sharper, a touch more synthetic in the opening, maybe 90% similar. The heart brings in that creamy vanilla and lavender. It's sweet, almost too sweet for some, but that’s the Victory Elixir DNA shining through. Drydown is a powdery tonka bean with a noticeable, slightly scratchy, patchouli. The sandalwood is subtle. Here, it deviates a bit more; the original is smoother, richer in the base.

Longevity & Projection

This stuff projects! For the first 2 hours, you'll leave a scent trail. Longevity is solid too; I get a good 7-8 hours on my skin. Not bad at all point. It won't fill a room like the real deal, but it's definitely noticeable.

Final Thoughts

It’s not a perfect match, but it gets you close enough for everyday wear. The synthetic edges are noticeable if you're actively looking for them. This scratches the itch for way less. Grab this if you want compliments on a budget, especially for cooler weather clubbing or dates.
