“This is an enjoyable tobacco scent, but not worth the hype or price it is currently going for. This stuff lasts forever on my skin with great sillage. I prefer PdM Herod for a nice tobacco scent. This juice smells great on the right woman, but it was an easy sell with the current prices it is selling for.”
“There is NOTHING soapy about this fragrance and not even close to Naxos as the person below me has implied. This smells like a high-quality Cuban cigar dipped in honey with a hint of cherry & a little smokiness..It isn't too sweet, It's perfectly blended and very masculine. The price for this now is super expensive sure, But considering the ridiculous prices for subpar niche tobacco forward fragrances that are not even half as good as this one..It is most definitely worth the price. For being a designer, It blows every niche out the window!”
“Thierry Mugler A* Pure Havane is a real winter evenings boss of the strong men’s fragrances. This is a lovely unstoppable powerhouse fragrance which can not be unnoticed. It would for sure get you positive compliments.In all of my perfume collection, my wife liked this one most in winters.A strong silage with extraordinary projection and brilliant longevity, I recommend this perfume for mature males. One negative point is, it’s not young school college boys thing.A must have perfume in collection.Lovely work Thierry Mugler. KEEP THE GOOD WORK.”

Sillage
The clone omits french labdanum, resulting in a less refined base structure and potentially less sophisticated dry-down. Galactic Men Intense likely has slightly better longevity but may sacrifice some of the original's aromatic subtlety for linear staying power.

Sillage
The clone delivers comparable longevity but with slightly less nuanced depth in the base notes; the original's French labdanum provides a more sophisticated, resinous quality that the Dua version approximates but doesn't fully replicate.
