Red Wine Brown Sugar Clones

"### Olfactory Experience Fragrance World's Brown Sugar opens with a recognizable, albeit slightly sharper, rendition of BOHOBOCO's Red Wine Brown Sugar. The red berries and raspberry provide a fruity lift, but lack the nuanced depth of the original. A noticeable synthetic edge marks this opening. The heart attempts the red wine accord, but the cedar is amplified here, creating a drier, woodier impression than the boozy warmth expected. Patchouli is present, grounding the composition. The drydown focuses on the brown sugar, but it's less caramelized and richer than its inspiration. The liquor note is dialed down, and the leather accord is a whisper, not a statement. Overall, I'd place the similarity at around 86%. The essence is there, but key ingredients are lower quality. ### To Buy or Not to Buy? Brown Sugar by Fragrance World captures the central idea of the original but with compromises. It's a decent clone point. However, expect a less refined and more linear experience. If you crave the full depth and luxuriousness of the original, save your money and buy the real thing. The nuances and quality ingredients of BOHOBOCO justify the higher cost. This is for the budget-conscious who prioritize affordability over impeccable replication. ### Longevity & Projection Longevity is moderate. I got about 5-6 hours on skin. Projection is initially strong for the first hour, then settles close to the skin. A safe office scent after the opening calms down."
