Opens with a bright bergamot-neroli burst that reads almost citrus-aquatic before the rose moves in and takes control — not a heady, overripe rose, but clean and slightly cool.

Every dupe is rated on two independent dimensions: scent accuracy (how closely it matches the original) and longevity (how long it lasts on skin). Scores are aggregated from community consensus on Reddit r/fragrance, r/fragranceclones, and Fragrantica. They are never averaged into a single number — accuracy and longevity are separate decisions.
