What wearers say

“. It’s a very warm , spicy, sweet, oud scent . Is masculine leaning except for the sticky sweet honey . It’s a great fall/ winter scent . Projection, excellent, longevity, phenomenal, - (into next day with one tiny spray on my wrist ) honestly it smells like a couple scents I have . This smells like - the maker hotel“ fire” And also like - replica “ music festival “ And a tiny bit- fm “ musc ravegour “ I personally don’t need multiple scents in my collection that smell this similar so I wouldn’t buy it but if you don’t have anything , absolutely give it a try.”

“It has a cinnamon sweetness similar to PDM Oajan and smells like Boss Bottled Absolu at the dry down. The opening is a bit harsh and smells like medicine but after 30 mins if gets amazing. Honey is the most prominent note and you can barely get oud.”
A member of a leading fragrance community
“The performance is amazing.When I was younger, I used a lot of Montales, because I wanted fragrances with good performances.Now, I see Montale as a joke in perfumery. Nothing creative about any of them.If you want a fragrance that has monstrous performance, go for it.It is very sweet, and nothing else.2018 bottle, also had a 2014 decant, the scent and performance is the same in both.”

Sillage

The clone lacks some of the Madagascar vanilla's creamy richness and the original's darker, more prominent oud character in the dry-down. Paris Corner's version is slightly brighter and more linear, with less evolving complexity over time compared to the original's layered development.
