Stars City captures the luminous citrus opening and creamy iris heart of City of Stars reasonably well, delivering a similar clean, sophisticated profile. However, the base notes feel slightly thinner and less refined, with reduced longevity and a more muted sillage that doesn't project as confidently as the original.
The clone performs adequately in the top and heart notes but falls short in depth and staying power, lasting approximately 4-5 hours compared to the original's 7-8 hour wear time. The base accords lack the richness and complexity of the designer version, resulting in a thinner overall composition.
