Sillage
Aslan Blue's longevity is noticeably shorter (4-5 hours vs 8+ hours), and the base feels more generic without the distinctive incense and refined ambroxan character that defines Dylan Blue's signature. The opening is nearly identical, but the fragrance loses complexity as it dries down.

The clone substitutes oud for some of the incense complexity, creating a warmer, more amber-oud oriented base compared to Dylan Blue's peppery, ambrosial dry down. Longevity is comparable, but the overall scent trajectory feels less sophisticated and more straightforward.
