Mirsaal Valentine by Le Falconé Perfumes

The perfume’s presentation is impressive, that’s undeniable. After the first two sprays I understood what people were talking about, it had a spectacular scent, but an opening worse than CDNIM’s. But the next day I applied it again and a nauseating odour lingered, that initial scent doesn’t lose presence and stays there, the reality is that it becomes unwearable. So I did the following, I sprayed about 15 sprays into the air of that horrible scent and let it rest for 1 month. Today I gave it another chance after that month of resting, and I’m sorry to report that it still doesn’t give that scent from the first two sprays, that strong initial odour that makes it unwearable predominates, sweet and nauseating. I’ll update my review if this changes, but it seems like a very unbalanced fragrance to me. I would prefer this scent in something more balanced.

What an amazing presentation for an extremely affordable perfume that offers a scent (which left me stunned) with high quality and totally atomic, well-balanced summer performance. Incredible. I knew about this Arabian house, but I didn’t imagine it was this good; in fact I’ve had some disappointments with Arabian perfumery and for that reason I don’t usually buy it. But I admit once again that there are exceptions (Arabian brands) that prove the rule, and this house lives up to the saying. A sparkling fragrance with citrus, clean with a subtle touch of creamy lavender and a musky base along with jasmine and verbena (for me) excellent. It’s like drinking a mojito with lots of ice in a desert. The dry-down part surprised me enormously. It smells divine. … And it lasts like Duracell bunnies

I’ve worn this perfume three times since I bought it because I have several, and on 2 of those three occasions several people around me asked about the fragrance I was wearing. So it’s a scent your circle of acquaintances will like. It’s a delicious citrus herbal scent. I think it’s a very good buy. I haven’t smelled Torino 21 but I feel a scent should not be judged in relation to another but on its own and this scent seems to me a great choice that complements your day to day very well. It lasts well, you can notice it and you feel accompanied by something delicious. The presentation is beautiful. Arab perfumes have many lessons to teach Western perfumery

Fresh mint and basil stand out a lot. It left me wanting more, just like Gulf Mojito Obsession. Both lack the brightness, airiness and projection that Torino21 (which I haven’t tried yet) surely must have. This is a super summery perfume, with an overall quite novel DNA amongst affordable Arab fragrances, but it doesn’t convince me. Little projection, little longevity, even though I own and like many fragrances that are discreet. I think it’s good for trying a preview of what Torino21 could be without having to buy it blind, but I dare say they don’t compare.

Rich citrus aroma, you can feel the mint and basil, for comparison I only have Paris Corner Voux Zingy, this one has a better scent, you get a brighter citrus, good buy but it’s not the beast mode of the prepaid reviews. Within two hours it becomes a close-to-the-skin scent. If it improves with time I’ll update the review

I’ll be brief, 95% in the opening it’s similar to Torino 21 and in the dry-down 98%, the difference is in quality, mostly the scent is identical, I have both and testing them at the same time it’s difficult to tell them apart, both last a long time but Mirsaal Valentine projects for longer, the biggest difference is in the opening, Torino 21’s with much more quality and Mirsaal a little more aggressive in that opening, if you like Torino 21 or want to know what it smells like, Mirsaal is undoubtedly your purchase

I don’t usually write reviews on here. But the presentation is excellent, the box, the details of the bottle, 10 out of 10!! The scent is spectacular, super addictive, you can tell it’s high quality! Honestly it’s the first from this brand and I was wary of it, plus you can get it at a good price! One of the best scents in my collection, for spring and summer this perfume is perfect! You won’t regret it. I don’t have Torino 21 so I can’t say whether it smells like it or not, but the reviews going round… say it’s the best!

Wow, pleasantly surprised. Rich, fresh, green scent (I don’t know notes) but it smells of orange leaf to me, the semi-bitter kind. I’m wearing it right now as I write this and I totally approve, great quality right from the opening. In fact the opening is what I liked most, I wish it stayed but it has a certain evolution. My next purchase will be Torino 21 because if I liked this one… Torino must be glory, how good Arabian perfumes are. If you’re in the USA buy it at Giftexpress for $29.99. You’re welcome. Edit 6 October: It’s perfect, addictive, sooo good. I did a random comparison with Hawas Kobra and honestly it stands no chance against this marvel, superior in every way and that’s even though the imagination DNA is my favourite. This perfume has just made it into my top 3. That said, watch out for the mint because it can have a toothpaste touch but very very slight and smelt close to the skin which in my opinion is even nice, you feel that cold, it’s pleasant.

A true gem, in line with Torino21 or Bounjorno. Good performance and presentation. My only gripe would be that the cap is almost loose.

Rich citrus aroma, you can smell the mint and basil, for comparison I only have Paris Corner Voux Zingy, this one has a better scent, you sense a brighter citrus, good buy but it’s not the beast mode from the paid reviews. In two hours it turns into a skin-close scent. If it improves over time I’ll update the review.

A true gem; its scent completely exceeds what you’d expect for its price.

I’ve tried it three times and now own several bottles; of those three attempts, people asked twice what I was wearing. It’s a citrus and herbal scent that your circle will adore. I think it’s an excellent purchase. I haven’t smelled the Torino 21, but I believe every perfume should be judged on its own merits, and this is a triumph that complements everyday life. It lasts well, is noticeable, and leaves you accompanied by something delicious. The presentation is beautiful. Arabic perfumes have so much to teach Western perfumery.

The fresh mint and basil really stand out. It left me with the impression of being a bit weak, much like the Gulf Mojito Obsession. Both lack the sparkle, air, and projection that the Torino 21 surely has (which I haven’t tried yet). This is a super summery perfume with a novel DNA among affordable Arabic fragrances, but it doesn’t convince me. The projection and longevity are poor, even though I own and enjoy many subtle scents. I think it’s good to try as a preview of what the Torino 21 might become without buying blindly, but I’d risk saying they don’t compare.

I’d sum it up as a niche-quality perfume. If you like aromatic/citrus scents, this is a delight.

Rich citrus aroma; you can feel the mint and basil. For comparison, I only have the Paris Corner Voux Zingy, which has a better scent with a brighter citrus note. A good purchase, but not the beast mode found in paid reviews. After two hours, it turns into a scent stuck to the skin. If it improves over time, I’ll update the review.
