Sava Clones

"### How it Smells Royal Blend Nero opens with a burst of sunshine – tart citruses reminiscent of lemon zest and mandarin peel. It's bright, though slightly synthetic compared to the natural vibrancy I've experienced with Sava. Quickly, the floral heart emerges. Gardenia is the star here, creamy and opulent, mingling with a touch of jasmine and orchid, creating a tropical garden feel. I’d estimate this captures maybe 88% of Sava’s initial impact. The drydown is where the scents diverge most noticeably. While Sava maintains a smooth amber warmth, Royal Blend Nero leans heavier on a clean musk with a sandalwood that possesses a cedar-like edge, giving it a drier character. ### Projection Power This is a pleasant surprise. Royal Blend Nero hangs around for a good 6-7 hours on my skin. Projection is moderate for the first hour, creating a noticeable aura before settling closer to the skin. It's a fragrance that whispers, not shouts. ### To Buy or Not to Buy? Royal Blend Nero offers a respectable interpretation of Sava's DNA. If you appreciate bright, white florals with a slightly more assertive, musky base, this is a solid budget option. The synthetic edges are present but not overwhelming. It’s perfect for someone who wants to project effortless confidence, someone who likes turning heads in a subdued way. But for a daily dose of sunshine and sophistication, Royal Blend Nero does the trick."
