Sillage
The clone exhibits slightly reduced longevity (6-7 hours vs 8+ hours) and a more linear scent progression, missing some of Opera's subtle mid-development nuances. Sillage is moderately lighter, making it a softer alternative that works well for office or casual wear settings.

Sillage
The clone provides good note-for-note accuracy in the opening and mid-notes but falls slightly short in base longevity and overall projection. The oud presence may feel more synthetic or less integrated compared to the original's seamless composition.
