Side by side
Comparing the originals — price, breadth, listed-note depth.
Opens with a sharp blast of mint and bright lemon that reads almost icy, then green apple softens the edge within the first twenty minutes. The heart is where it earns its reputation — ambroxan and vanilla merge into a warm, skin-close sweetness that smells intentionally seductive without tipping into dessert territory. Cedar keeps the dry-down from going fully soft, adding just enough woodiness to ground the projection. Sillage is generous but not aggressive; it announces itself and holds for hours — Best in spring and summer evenings for someone who wants a crowd-pleaser that leans confident without being loud.
Opens with a bright citrus burst — bergamot and mandarin cut with the green, slightly milky edge of fig and pear — that settles quickly into a soft floral heart where lily and jasmine take the lead, kept from being too sweet by a whisper of cardamom spice. The dry-down is understated: sandalwood and cedar give it a clean woody base with a musky skin finish. Projection is modest; sillage stays close. — Casual warm-weather wear for anyone who wants clean and feminine without demanding attention.
