Eternity for Men Clones

"### How it Smells Zara's New York aims for Calvin Klein's Eternity for Men. It gets close, maybe 86%. The opening is bright, a bit harsh with lemon and lavender, lacking the original's smoother, more natural feel. It's noticeably synthetic here, but not offensively so. The heart brings in sage and juniper, trying for that herbal freshness. It's less complex than Eternity; some of the original's green nuances are missing. The drydown is a decent sandalwood and musk, but lacks the depth of Eternity. It's a simplified, less refined take. ### The Performance Stats Don't expect miracles. New York projects moderately for about an hour. After that, it sits close to the skin. Longevity is around 4-5 hours on my skin. Definitely a re-application situation if you want to keep it going through the day. It's fine but it's no powerhouse. ### To Buy or Not to Buy? Zara's New York is a decent daily beater. If you want a passable Eternity experience without dropping a lot of cash, this will do."

"### Notes & Nuances Portfolio Elite goes for the classic Eternity for Men vibe. The opening hits you with a burst of lavender and lemon, maybe a touch more synthetic than the original, but pleasant enough. It's aiming for that clean, fresh laundry feel. As it settles, the sage and juniper come into play, adding a slightly herbal and green dimension. It's not a perfect match to Eternity – maybe 90% there. The sandalwood in the base is a bit more prominent and less refined, giving it a slightly sharper dry down. ### To Buy or Not to Buy? Look, Portfolio Elite is a solid grab. If you love Eternity but don't want to drop the cash, or just need something to spray liberally without guilt, this is it. It's a work-appropriate, clean scent that won't offend. Is Eternity 10x better? No way. This is a great daily driver for the budget-conscious guy who appreciates a classic, fresh fragrance profile. ### Projection Power Don't expect beast mode. Portfolio Elite projects moderately for the first hour, then settles closer to the skin. I get about 4-5 hours of noticeable wear. It's not a powerhouse, but it doesn't disappear instantly either. Perfectly acceptable for a workday scent."
