This is a great scent. It’s not 100% like BDC, because BDC is a little more citrusy in the opening and for about the first 20 minutes. However, I can only tell the difference when I smell them up close. Also, I get about 1-1 ½ hours projection and about 6-7 hours longevity. This is exactly what I get from BDC as well. For me, this is easily worth the money, because BDC is overpriced in my opinion. Great Job PP!

I have tested this side-by-side with the original and they are very close, but different. The original is smoother and last longer. Honestly, I got about 10 hours from the original. However, I get about 8 hours from PP’s version. For me the differences come when you put your nose close to them. PP’s version is a little harsh and not as well-blended as the original. In the air, they smell the same. But up-close PP’s version is about 90% similar. For me, this isn’t a 5 start because the original is better, but for the price you cannot go wrong. If I could I would give this 4 ½ stars.

This fragrance is amazing. I tested this side by side with the original and the original opens with a little more apple. In the opening PP is about 97% like the original. After about 5 minutes are so, they smell the same. I couldn’t tell the difference nor could my wife. Love this stuff so much I went back and bought a 30ml. Great job PP!

I haven’t tried the original, but I did wear this side-by-side with Fortune, another popular clone of Naxos. From the reviews Fortune is said to smell exactly like Naxos. So, here is my comparison. PP and Fortune open slightly different, but only slightly. PP is a little airier, whereas Fortune seems to have more honey. After about 2 minutes they start smelling extremely similar. Fortune seems to project a little more, but they both smell almost the same. If you dig your nose in you may tell differences, but only slight. I had my wife smell the two and she thought they smelled the same, but Fortune was a little stronger. However, she loved the PP version. She said its one of her all-time favorites from my PP collection. Also, they both lasted about 8 hours. Honestly, this fragrance easily gets 5 stars. I don’t understand why others gave this less than 4 stars, but if you want to save money and smell wonderful get this. If you want to smell wonderful and pay far more money then get Fortune or Naxos. I will save my money with this superb copy.

This is a great copy of ADGP. I would say its about 98% similar. It has a little less incense in the opening than the original, and the sea notes are just slightly toned down. I notice a difference because the original gives me a slight feeling of nausea, and I don’t get that feeling from PP’s version. However, both last the same amount of time. Great job!

I haven’t smelled the original, but this is a great fragrance! This is a perfect office scent for a rainy day. This is not a projection monster, it stays within arm’s length. However, it lasts a full workday. My only drawback about this is the price. The PP price is only slightly less than the original. But overall, great job!

I have smelled the original but didn’t do a side-by-side test. For what I remember, this smells just like the original. This stuff is superb. The opening is strong, but not harsh. I get really good performance, about 7-8 hours with 2 hours projection. For me this is easily worth it. In fact, I bought a 15ml bottle, then bought a 30ml bottle because I love this so much.

This is a citrus cocktail bomb. I have no clue what this is supposed to smell like, but it smells like orange dominant fruit punch drink. I love it, and for a fresh fragrance it last and projects without being over- bearing. This is one of my go to gym scents.

I haven’t smelled the original, but OMG this is gorgeous. Its rich and sophisticated without smelling like your trying to hard. And, its very alluring without smelling like you need to be the center of attention. My wife got a random whiff of this and said I smell expensive and sophisticated. She loves it, and so do I. Do not get fooled by the fact that this is labeled a woman’s fragrance. Its unisex, and I would say it leans masculine.

I tested this with the original and they smell almost the same. I really can’t tell the difference. Great job!
