âI do like this scent .The first spray reminds me of fancy baby wipes butThe dry down after a few hours is where itâs the best .Itâs beautiful and elegant but nothing special.I donât think the price point is worth it especially for something that has weak sillage and projection.Itâs more like a scent bubble.The dry down reminds me of a more diluted weak version of the fragrance oil by zoha aroma inspired by feve deliceuse with a touch of suede.â
âIâm taken back to babysitting with the initial blast of baby powder, with the addition of leather. Very challenging for someone who doesnât enjoy powdery scents. The suede is there, but it leans more feminine in my opinion.Projection and lasting power are there for sure!But⊠a few hours later and the vanilla dry down is so very lovely. Reminiscent of the dry down with AngĂ©lique Noire.If you enjoy powdery scents, this is for you. I will stick to AngĂ©lique Noire.â
âI bought a decant of this and to my surprise, can I just say that this is similar to Celineâs Dans Paris, OMG! I keep on sniffin my arm and only het dans paris. Iâm so glad I went to sample a few guerlainâs expensive line first, coz seriously we maybe have something so similar from our wardrobe already. This is just one rank up more potent than dans paris and maybe a bit longer lasting (seriously celineâs perfumes are annoyingly expensive for their performance and sillage)⊠đŹđ I find this an all year round scent.â

Sillage
The clone emphasizes leather over suede, creating a bolder but less elegant leather presentation. The immortelle note appears softer or absent in the clone, reducing some of the original's creamy sweetness and complexity.

Sillage
The clone delivers similar longevity but with less sillage and a softer opening; the suede and patchouli accords are comparable, but the original's complex aldehydic treatment and more prominent immortelle sweetness create a more elegant and complex progression.
