Option Review:13ml Spray Gorgeous!
Warm golden amber and cashmeran, with a touch of woods and salt?. It makes me think of a cosy old house, and you curl up on a window seat under a wool blanket warmed by the sun. Super cosy, completely unisex, super autumnal

Option Review:13ml Spray I haven't tried the original, but Perfume Parlour's other Kilians are very close.
This is lots if rose, with hints of raspberry and myrrh and maybe just a touch od chocolate or violet?
Very nicely done, but too much red natural rose for me, I prefer Forbidden Games where the rose is more dark and plummy

Option Review:13ml Spray Quite a dark scent to my nose, possibly from the cypriol. Faint rose, but not so much as to make it lean feminine, slight spices and a dark, slightly bitter, almost leathery note? A little too far from my usual taste to be able to identify what I'm smelling properly.
Definitely unisex.

Option Review:13ml Spray To me this smells like clean musk, baby powder, powdery iris, warm amber and something like rose? Maybe a hint of cinnamon. Quite nice, nothing that smells artificial.

Option Review:13ml Spray This has the spicey and resinous notes of By The Fireplace, but with a rose note instead of slight smokiness.
Of the two, since I'm not a fan of rose, I prefer By The Fireplace, but if you like that, and rose, you'll probably like this

Option Review:13ml Spray Disclaimer: I haven't tried the original Armani Code Cashmere.
Foolishly perhaps, I was hoping for something that actually smelt like Cashmere or wool. This is buckets of heavy jasmine, slightly artificial to my nose compared to real jasmine absolute, but that's common these days since the IFRA made up so many restrictions about real jasmine. I suspect the original is the same.
Massive sillage. Great if you love heavy jasmine scents
Option Review:13ml Spray Lovely gingerbread scent. Strong and long lasting. Smells just like gingerbread coffee syrup or a Yankee Candle. Lovely for autumn.

Option Review:13ml Spray I haven't tried the original Arabian, but this is a strong dark rose with amber. I wasn't expecting the rose, so it's not for me
Option Review:13ml Spray Beautiful vanilla, but lasted only minutes before it disappeared.
Reminded me of Mercedes Benz Club Black, but that has better sillage and longevity
Street Brand 1417
Option Review:13ml Spray
