I rate this highly because it's a dupe of my favorite perfume.

So this is duping Papilefiko by Nishane which is my all time favorite, to read more about it, you can go to my profile and read my review on it.

For this I will mainly say that it does a very decent job at duping it for $25 USD, but it's still not there completely, it starts slightly fresher, but it also doesn't feel quite in the same level of quality specially when you think of the cardamom and lavender notes, it's also not as resinous as the original and it has a much more "stale" dry-down that actually smells much woodier and drier than the original. It also doesn't last as much, since this is 20% and the original is 30%.

I used to have it, but once I could get a nice discount on the original I immediately sold this.
