The Scoop
Royal Blend Nero captures the crisp citrus opening and floral heart of Sava quite well, with bergamot and jasmine coming through distinctly in the opening phases. However, the base notes feel slightly softer and less refined, with the cedarwood lacking the subtle woody complexity of the original. Overall, it's a respectable interpretation that works as an affordable alternative, though the mid-stage transitions feel slightly abrupt compared to the original's smoother progression.
Key Differences
Royal Blend Nero has slightly shorter longevity and less pronounced sillage than Sava, with a base that leans more musky than woody. The heart notes are well-replicated, but the overall depth and refinement of the fragrance feel somewhat diminished in the clone version.
