What wearers say
“The projection on this one is insane. I spray it on my inner elbows and it throws itself across the room. If you’re looking for a similar scent, it reminds me of vanilla romance from bath and body works. Nothing can dupe this projection though, it’s insane.”
“byredo's best fragrance. it has lasting projection and longevity and changes profile throughout wear. a smoky, woody, opening transforms into a warm, creamy spicy vanilla. a true unisex scent.”
“Smell really nice but for the price I will get Mercedes Benz Club Black for a fraction of the price, smells very similar, not 100% but I can say 85%, I think is overprice.”

Sillage
The clone offers shorter longevity (4-5 hours vs 6-8 hours on Byredo) and slightly more pronounced sandalwood in the dry-down, making it feel less antique and refined. Sillage is also more linear and less evolving throughout the wear time.

Sillage
The clone's vanilla sweetness is more prominent and less nuanced than the original, with slightly reduced longevity and sillage. The sandalwood base in the original provides more structure and drydown complexity that the clone struggles to replicate.
