What wearers say
“Definitely a Daisy dupe. I got this first and later compared to a sample of Daisy. To my nose it is 90% similar. Daisy is a bit more subdued and less screechy in the opening, but in First Love this doesn't last too long. All in all, it passes as a more affordable dupe.”
“I have a small bottle of the fragrance mist lying around and decided to finally try it. IMO it smells like Chanel Chance but sweeter in the dry down. I enjoy First Love better however, it gives me a headache if sprayed anywhere near my face. Longevity is decent I can still smell lovely sweet and musky whiffs of it throughout the day.”
“This perfume is very pretty. It’s feminine and soft. When first sprayed, it smells very similar to Marc Jacobs Daisy, but it’s softer and slightly sweeter than Daisy. It becomes a skin scent after a while and makes you smell like yourself but better. This is a gorgeous spring/summer scent and would be great as an everyday any occasion fragrance.”

Sillage
The clone's base lacks the same smoothness as the original due to cedarwood prominence over sandalwood, and the grapefruit top note substitution makes the opening slightly sharper. Longevity and sillage are also moderately reduced compared to the designer version.

Sillage
The clone offers decent longevity (4-5 hours vs. original's 5-6 hours) but lacks the subtle sophistication of the original's peony accord. Sillage is slightly more pronounced and linear in the clone, with less nuanced evolution throughout the dry-down.
