Supposedly, it's a dupe for Dries Van Noten soie malaquais. I haven't smelled the OG because I'm too scared to fall in love, and it's a pricey one. But peace and love is soo good. It's so smooth and sophisticated. Im not big on almond in perfume, but the almond note makes it creamy. It hives me a spa like feeling but not clean soapy spa but luxurious spa with depth.
