Narcotic Delight Clones

"### Scent Breakdown Nudo Exotic Flowers bursts open with a candied cherry, noticeably sharper and more synthetic than Initio's Narcotic Delight. The pepper adds a needed bite, but it's a little rough around the edges. Where the original is plush and velvety, this leans more towards a sticky sweetness. The heart aims for boozy warmth with its cognac note, but the hedione creates a slightly thinner, airier effect. The drydown brings forth a cozy blend of vanilla and tobacco. It's pleasant but lacks the depth and sophistication of its muse. Think 88% similar, with the biggest difference being in the quality of ingredients and the overall smoothness. ### Final Thoughts If you crave the vibe of Narcotic Delight but can't stomach the Initio price tag, Nudo Exotic Flowers scratches the itch. It's a flirty, playful fragrance perfect for date night or adding a touch of sweetness to your everyday. The original justifies its price with its richness and refinement, but if you want something similar this is a solid option. Best for those who appreciate a bold, sweet fragrance and aren't afraid of a bit of synthetic sparkle. ### The Performance Stats The projection is moderate for the first two hours, leaving a sweet, inviting trail. After that, it settles closer to the skin, lasting a good six to seven hours as a softer vanilla-tobacco scent. Not bad point."

"### Conclusion It's not a perfect dupe, lacking some of the nuance and quality of the original. But it's a fantastic option for cooler weather. Wear it on date night or to a casual gathering. If you're okay with a bit of a rougher, more synthetic edge, Ka Fede Oud for Victory will scratch that itch . ### Scent Breakdown Ka Fede Oud for Victory comes on strong with a boozy cherry and a peppery kick, pretty close to Narcotic Delight (maybe 87% there). Initio's has a smoother opening, while this one has a slight synthetic edge, especially that cherry. It dries down into a warm, comforting mix of vanilla and tobacco. I don't get much oud, despite the name. The cognac note is present, but less pronounced than in the original. Think of it as a less refined, more straightforward take on the same idea. ### Longevity & Projection This stuff lasts a good 6-7 hours on my skin. Projection is moderate for the first couple of hours, then it settles closer. It won't fill a room, but people will notice it if they're near you. It's not beast mode, but solid daily performance."
