48% call it identical or very close
  • Most reviewers consider the dupe spot-on or very close to the original, though a minority feel it misses the mark entirely or lacks the original's woody warmth.
  • Users note that it offers decent to good longevity, though the oil format projects less and feels less intense than a traditional spray.

  • “The OP version is dead on and has decent lasting power. Put it on this morning, gone for the most part now. Doesn't project like a spray though since it's an oil. But a very, very accurate clone to my untrained nose.”
