Poise

Rasasi Poise is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Poise opens with Saffron, Cardamom, Bergamot, and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Leather, Sandalwood, Musk, and Cedar. Rasasi's Poise carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

A solid, affordable alternative to Penhaligon's Halfeti, Poise delivers a deep, ambery-woody experience. Some call it a bargain, others find it a bit generic - but it's generally well-received for its rich, elegant dry-down, especially at the price.

With its impressive longevity and moderate projection, Poise is versatile enough for many settings, including office wear according to reviews. However, its rich amber and woody backbone, while elegant, leans more towards date nights and formal events than casual or sporty activities.

About

Poise bursts open with a vibrant, juicy grapefruit and spicy cardamom, quickly mellowing into a romantic heart of rose and nutmeg. As it settles, it reveals a luxurious tapestry of amber, rich sandalwood, and a soft, inviting leather. The powerful amber-woody base is smoothed by a powdery embrace, making for a sophisticated and enduring scent.
