Our objective metric for performance per dollar.
Notes & Nuances
Raghba for Men aims squarely at Green Irish Tweed, and it lands... decently close. The opening hits you with that characteristic lemon verbena and iris combo; it's bright, but slightly harsher than Creed's smooth, almost creamy rendition. The violet leaf heart tries its best, but there’s a synthetic edge lurking. The drydown brings a woody ambergris accord. It attempts the sophisticated base of GIT but lacks the natural depth. I'd say it's about 88% of the way there. Good enough for most noses? Probably. A perfect replica? Not a chance.
Projection Power
Expect moderate performance. It projects noticeably for the first hour, creating a respectable scent bubble. After that, it settles closer to the skin. Longevity is around 5-6 hours on my skin. It’s not beast mode, but acceptable point. Reapplication might be needed for a full day's wear.
The Verdict
If you're obsessed with GIT and demand perfection, save your money. But if you're a budget-conscious fragrance enthusiast who wants a very good approximation for daily wear, Raghba for Men is worth considering. Is Green Irish Tweed ten times better? Debatable. A great option for people who appreciate the vibe of the original, without breaking the bank. Buy it if you want to smell classy without emptying your wallet.
