Option Review:13ml Spray
Spot on - I couldn't notice any differences between Innovator and Kalan in the air.

Option Review:13ml Spray
Almost identical to the original - maybe the mint note is a tiny bit more abrasive than Sedley but I'm really nitpicking. I think the longevity and projection is on par with the original (which is to say, not the best). Good job PP.

Option Review:13ml Spray
I sampled this next to Carlisle and the biggest difference is in the openings of the two fragrances. Penine doesn't capture the sparkling green apple of the original but 15 - 20 minutes in they become almost indistinguishable in the air. Excellent job from Perfume Parlour.

Option Review:13ml Spray
Very, very close to the original. I wore this side-by-side with the original and it was almost impossible to tell the difference between them in the air. If you dig your nose in then you'll notice slight differences but luckily, most people around you probably aren't going to be doing that. The PP version has a tiny bit more emphasis on the metallic note, but it's incredibly close to the original.

Option Review:15ml Spray Extract
Virtually identical to the original - almost impossible to tell the difference between the original vs the PP extract version in the air. It's certainly a compliment getter. Has a bit of a bubblegum sweetness without coming across as too youthful or immature.

Option Review:13ml Spray
I really love the opening of Dior Homme Intense, and unfortunately PP was very wide of the mark in this respect. After the initial 30 minutes it starts to become closer to Dior Homme Intense, though I think French Power is slightly sweeter. I also pick up on a cherry-like note throughout the entire life of the PP fragrance that is not present in the original; I'm not sure what is causing that. This certainly is not an exact copy of DHI, but it's reasonably close. The PP extract version of this works out to be more expensive per ml than buying the real Dior Homme Intense from My-Origines, so on this occasion I'd recommend you just buy the real deal.

After a couple of weeks of letting this sit, it's a bit closer to the original. The lemon note in this is still abrasive and very artificial smelling (reminiscent of the type of lemon used in cleaning products). Aside from the very artificial citrus used (which is to be expected at this price point), the next biggest difference is that it's not quite as floral as the original. To be honest, I would strongly recommend avoiding this one.

Bright, fresh, clean, citrusy. Perfect for warmer weather. As it dries down, the tiniest hint of vanilla comes out which gives it a really well-rounded quality. Unisex for sure. Amazing job done on this one by PP.

Agree with the first review - it does have a small similarity to 24 Gold. This is amazing stuff. Leather, vanilla and spices. Love it.

Identical to Ultra Male - another great job by PP.
