    This fragrance is difficult to rate. It’s a good copy of the original, but lacks the same opening, and in my mind the opening is what makes this fragrance unique. The original opens fresher with more neroli, whereas PP’s seems to lack the bright neroli opening. As a result, the opening can come off somewhat harsh because the iris is so prominent, which gives off a synthetic vibe. For some this might be off putting, but for me I am just indifferent to the opening of PP’s copy. The problem is the opening to the original is one of the best things about the fragrance. After about 10-15 minutes on my skin these two fragrances begin to smell the same (some reviewers have said it takes about 20 minutes for then to smell similar). After that PP version does seem to last longer, but the original seems to project more. Overall, I cannot complain about the longevity of PP’s version because neither last that long. I get anywhere between 5-7hours with both fragrances, with about moderate to low projection from both. I have to give this fragrance three stars because the opening is a major part of what makes L’homme unique. Without the opening, I would just recommend getting PP’s version of Prada Amber. It has the same feel as L’homme but with more depth.

    I bought this on a recommendation from a friend not having tried the original. This is incredible. One of the best fragrances I have smelt. Immediately bought a bigger bottle. It lasts a decent amount of time on me. Seems from reviews it’s very close to the original. I may buy an original bottle to compare when I can afford it but not in any rush to as this PP version is stunning.

    The oil misses the opening and gets straight to the mid/ drydown of Baraonda, which I think is the best part anyway. Not an everyday scent but great for special evenings.

    I love MFK fragrances and instead of blind buying I bought a small 6 ml oil from PP. This fragrance is amazing. You can wear it all year around. It has that citric sweet notes that you find on latest aventus but so well blended. A signature scent. After finishing this oil will go for a bigger bottle.

    This smells nice, a fruity patchouli with a hint of citrus. Very elegant

    This one has to grow on me. Blackberry oud, sweet and woody, but the oud is a bit to medicinal for my liking.

    Comparing side by side the PP version is missing the oud oil completely and it smells more like baby powder then MFK OSM perfums... When I was wearing PP version I had comments saying whos got baby powder on. 😳...lasts forever but similarity to genuine MFK only about 60% I would say..3 stars for longevity.
