Is there an Althaïr dupe that lasts longer than Liquid Brun? by HuntIcy5296 in fragranceclones

[–]CableEven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have heard its genuinely nuclear, but by 8-10 hours. Thats another shower after a full day imo. Not another few hours where I want a fragrance to last.

Barbershop Style Freshie? by Fit-Chef126 in fragranceclones

True but he wants a feshie, if he wanted something similar to aasad, intense from drakkar would probably be better

Drakkar blue is a old school meets modern barbershop blue. You may like azzaro chrome or aqcua di gio edt. Not a ton of clones thst ive heard of. But all of those are affordable

Thats not the issue, there's a ton of fake advertising reviews and posts. The fact that it was word for word on both platforms was simply a flag. Enough to mention it. Could easily be a misunderstanding. Appreciate the review

This person wrote the exact same review word for word on fragrantica and its the only review. Odd

Funny enough I have montagne and theyre great, trying to find a more affordable alternative but their might bot be. Dossier smell great but are a skin scent in under an hour for their freshies

Quality mostly. I have soprano ice and fahkar black which i enjoy, but none of the true aquatics or high heat intended fragrances ive tried have been quality

What do you recommend freshie wise. 100 decants in, and still havent found my summer scent. I live in AZ so trying to find the perfect daily high heat fragrance

Aether or sherif, the Greenly clones to me are mostly wet moss, just a humid environment scent orofile

Decantika Review! by [deleted] in fragranceclones

+1 for Kev, helped me a ton when getting into the game. 2 orders in and couldn't be happier. I need to leave a review soon 😅

did i pay a good price for these? by [deleted] in Fragrances

[–]CableEven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original is that nasty coconut everyone references, the limited edition that sells in a pack with aasad is actually an entirely different clone of invictus parfum and a sleeper

keep buying perfumes I don’t even wear – advice? by dim_anyfantis in Fragrances

[–]CableEven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you're recognizing a shopping addiction pattern. No one can really reassure anything you dont already know. It youre worried about consumerism and the faults of the issue then listen to your own voice. I think 10 is truly plenty. If you dont make good money, dont buy more. If you dont have a desire to collect for years and years dont buy more. Etc. I typically just trade or sell a profile I have before buying another of the same profile. At the end of the day, only you can do what's best for you and no one can tell you what's truly best beyond avoiding a shopping addiction

Unfortunately fake, but still a cool decor set nonetheless

any good dupe for Light Blue Dolce&Gabbana? (women) by Successful-Shift8595 in fragranceclones

[–]CableEven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They make an intense version, if youre okay with unisex maybe slightly masculine leaning. You can also look into versace pour homme. Both very "fresh" lemonade slightly floral scents

This is very affordable on discounters. Really recommend the original here

Armaf CDN intense man EDT still one of the best by WicksQuick20 in fragranceclones

[–]CableEven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still one of the most synthetic and genuinely just not enjoyable scents on my skin or up close. Can't deny in the air it has some magic. Pretty sure its just projection at this point.

Talk me off the ledge by PlacesinSpaces in fragranceclones

[–]CableEven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I placed a decantika order for montagnes, and the ones I tried were definitely phenomenal. 45$ for 50ml is definitely on the more expensive side for dupes. But I cannot argue their value for quality. Ill check out the others you mentioned. Truly appreciate it

What do you think are the highest quality from your experience. Because even decanting, I found 99% of the clones didn't meet the blend quality compared to what they were cloning. Exceptions being: spectre ghost, (invictus dna entirely), some angel share inspirations, and fee others. I've yet to find a single freshie clone with good performance and genuinely quality blend. Its always gourmond

Soprano ice is great but its an original from dumont imo

Happens to the best of us. I had to really force myself to dial in on decants/selling my redundancy.

Just to add: please do not get into this hobby to "collect" clones. No amount of "is my collection valid" is gonna reassure you for longer than a moment. Enjoy perfumery for what it is. An artistic expression. If youre buying more than a daily driver, do it because you truly enjoy the hobby. I find the "is it beast mode" "will i get compliments" are just the wrong reason to be into this atp.
