“Smells like original flowerbomb just with a lot of anise. I don't remember this smelling like this at all. I tested it in stores a couple of years ago, and it was absolutely lovely! I even got complimented on it then and it lasted a while. It was a floral powdery vanilla peach. Now it just smells like liquorice and then it's gone.Edit: The bottle needed to get some time to macerate(?). Because after a couple of months, the liquorice note disappeared, and it started to smell exactly like the bottle in the store. Also a compliment-getter. Could last longer, tho.”
“I received a tester of this some time last year or so and loved it... now that I've gotten around to purchasing it I'm kind of disappointed! Its an unoffensive sweet perfume, I agree with other reviews that the peach note isn't very noticeable or dectectable. I've been using it as a day time office scent for most of the spring/summer and it definitely doesn't last all day. For the price I would have loved some more longevity, but its still a cute fragrance!”
“It still has that original flowerbomb DNA but it’s a bit more fruity and juicy from the peach. It has more vanilla and no patchouli. The dry down is sweet, soft and powdery. On me the performance is pretty decent, it lasts most of the day and I already got a few compliments.”

Longevity
Moderate to Strong
Sillage
The clone misses the osmanthus's creamy elegance that adds dimension to the original's floral bouquet, resulting in a flatter mid-development. Longevity and projection are noticeably reduced, offering approximately 4-5 hours versus the designer's 6-8 hour wear time.

Sillage
The clone prioritizes orchid prominence over the balanced floral bouquet of the original, and features a warmer amber base instead of the original's cleaner musk-patchouli finish. Longevity and sillage are likely comparable, but the olfactory character leans more linear and less refined.
