Pros & Cons
- ✅ A fresh and sweet version of Layton (imo better), I got it in a sample pack just to try it out and ended up buying a big bottle, smells so damn good.
- ✅ Absolutely perfect balance of sweet, spicy, fresh. I prefer this over Layton and for the price can’t beat it.
- ✅ This is an amazing clone of Layton for a huge discount. It's very very close to Layton without as much mint/menthol.
- ✅ One of the better Alexandria Fragrances for sure in terms of performance and it smells GREAT (I never smelled Layton).
- ✅ This fragrance smells great. Upon first receiving it I wasn’t too pleased but after forgetting about it for about a year and coming back to it most recently this has become a wonderful scent.
- ✅ This is an amazing clone of Layton for a huge discount. It's very very close to Layton without as much mint/menthol. Otherwise excellent. I love it for the value.
- ❌ Extremely disappointed with my first purchase from ALAXNDIA PERFUMES UK, very weak perfume, longevity is very poor and no silage.
- ❌ Smells like Layton, but it lacks quality and depth which makes it not that close to Layton, maybe like 60%. Has a synthetic quality to it.
- ❌ This is... uncomfortable. I have a review below, but I need to update it: I love Layton, I do. ... When I first got RE, I wasn't satisfied with it, it smelled too synthetic to really enjoy it.
- ❌ to me all i can smell is spice and maybe a bit of wood. i just bought it so maybe it needs maceration and maybe it was just a bad batch.
- ❌ Smells like Layton, but it lacks quality and depth which makes it not that close to Layton, maybe like 60%. Has a synthetic quality to it, which I dont like.
- ❌ A clone remains a clone. Just like The Beatles/Eagles and others tribute bands. No matter how skilled they are. And overpriced for a clone.
