    first proper Oriental Spicy dupe i've owned and it set the bar high. great balance between sweet, fresh and a little dirty. if you're reading reviews to decide — just buy it.

    i keep reaching for this over the original, that's how good it is. compared to the original, the Musk opening is the closest part to my nose. safe to say this is going to be a permanent part of my collection.
