Raspberry leads loud in the opening — bright, slightly candied, with lychee adding a cool watery lift underneath. The heart is where it earns its keep: damask rose comes in full and dense, softening the fruit without turning floral-generic. Patchouli grounds everything without going earthy or hippie-dark; it's more structural than dominant. The dry-down settles into a warm vanilla-patchouli skin scent with moderate sillage and respectable longevity — intimate but traceable. The overall effect is a polished, slightly sweet floral with gourmand warmth rather than heavy dessert sugar — Made for cooler months and dressed-up evenings where you want presence without aggression.
Widely cited as a clone of Mugler Angel Nova EDP.
Budget rose-berry-vanilla with Angel Nova-adjacent feel; short wear but affordable.

Scores come from owner reports on Reddit r/fragrance, r/fragranceclones and Fragrantica, and each is marked community-scored, provisional or not scored. They are never averaged into a single number — accuracy and longevity are separate decisions.
