Option Review:50ml Spray I bought this dupe as I was hoping for a stronger more projecting version of 'by the fireplace'. I sprayed one hand each with btfp and wood fire . First initial smell from both was a bit chemically then the scents came through. Almost immediately I could smell the lovely throaty woody spice from the original but the dupe was just sweet. As it dried down the scent became a little more similar, but only a little. I asked my daughter to smell both hands, she could smell btfp but not the dupe. Its projection is even weaker than the original sadly, maybe it will perform better sprayed on clothes rather than skin. Wood fire is in itself a nice perfume but lacks the beautiful smokiness that appeals to me. I purchased a cheap body spray from Avon (fireside glow) which has captured btfp very well, no longevity though but more projection. I will keep on the hunt for that wonderful smokiness with a good projection and longevity.
I strongly recommend you let the fragrance macerate for a few weeks and then check.
