âI have this and the Arab dupe fakhar rose. They are identical but i donât know why when i love a perfume dupe so much i want the authentic bottle too. Makes no sense itâs just weird. So i have both and i love this scent! LOVE IT!At first I was off put bc i thought it smelled a bit masculine but it was the dupe that i got first and i let it sit for about a month and then is when the sweetness came aboutI like to layer this with my mon guierlain or the dupe (also have both of those lol) guess seductive noirThe combo is to die for!!So many compliments at work by patients and coworkers!â
âI got my husband to get me this as a wedding fragrance- it smells divine and we both love it. However, it didnât last over 2 hours past our wedding ceremony despite spraying about 8-10. Iâm not new to this so I knew that with fragrances you must let it sit after opening it for a few months to get the full power and longevity. The tester I got lasted about a week and projected farrr which was why I requested it.I wonât give it a bad rating at all because as the days go by, itâs starting to stick, project, and bloom on my clothing. I LOVE IT.â
âEvery time I smell it on someone, I think they're wearing My Way for a moment. The soapy tuberose is so similar, I can never tell which one it is with the first sniff. When I compare them directly though, L'interdit is much more elegant, deep and classy, like a grown up version of teenage My Way. It's very long lasting, but also subtle, the sillage is more intimate, which in my opinion adds to the elegance. It's the perfect pick for a romantic dinner or a banquet, but if you're looking for something similar but more youthful and crazy to wear to a club, go for My Way.â

L'intrude has noticeably shorter longevity (4-5 hours vs 6-8 hours) and somewhat reduced sillage compared to the original. The green opening is less crisp and the floral heart feels slightly more diffused, making it a decent budget alternative but not a dead-ringer.

Fakhar Rose emphasizes rose more prominently while downplaying orange blossom, resulting in a rosier, less sparkling floral profile. The clone also exhibits noticeably shorter longevity and reduced sillage compared to the original's robust performance.
