āA beautiful, sharp fresh lime opening followed by smooth summery floral dry down.I got this as a sample from the MFK Menās discovery collection, however this leans feminine to my nose and if I smelt this on another man, Iād be inclined to think heād threw on his girlfriendās perfume by mistake whilst in a rush to leave the house.That being said, I think this would be a great summer scent for women... although maybe not great enough to justify the price tag.ā
āThis is banging! and its beautiful longevity and very much possibly the best aquatic citrus perfumes I have smelt.It is so fresh and potent and worthy the money they are asking!It lingers wafts of this surround and good projection it feels zesty almost like DG Blue and natural I went to the department store and now I have my summer frag already planned for 2019!Amazing and so natural not synthetic smelling or dishwasher type freshness but citrusLime on the first spray and then on dry down this warm, fresh subtly musky spicy beauty!! 10/10!!ā
āI get an offputtingly sharp lime with prominent mint and blackcurrant notes. As it dries down it becomes more muted, musky and pleasant, but the performance is so trash I can't recommend it for the price it sells at. I'm not a huge fan of lime anyway. <2hr projection, 4-5hr longevity.ā

Sillage
The clone's longevity is marginally shorter (4-5 hours vs 6-7 hours for the original) and the sillage projects less aggressively. The musk base in the clone feels more prominent and less refined, giving it a slightly soapier finish compared to the original's delicate, skin-like drydown.

Sillage
Sweet Infinity typically exhibits a sweeter, more linear progression compared to the original's elegant evolution, with potentially reduced longevity and a softer sillage. The musk base may feel less delicate, giving the clone a slightly heavier finish than the ethereal quality of Aqua Celestia.
