Sillage
The clone matches the note structure closely but lacks the depth and longevity of Meydan's leather and tobacco base. Sillage is moderately reduced, making it a more understated interpretation of the original's bold oriental-woody profile.

Sillage
The primary difference is the introduction of oud in the clone's base, replacing the original's tobacco prominence, resulting in a different overall character in the final hours. Longevity and sillage are slightly reduced in the clone compared to the original's performance.
