Valaya Exclusif is praised by the community as a creamy, pleasant fragrance that's more approachable than the original, with users reporting compliments and satisfaction as a signature scent. However, the main criticism is disappointing longevity and projection—lasting only a few hours as a skin scent—which undermines its premium price point and makes it less practical for all-day wear despite its appealing scent profile.
