On the Beach Clones

"### Olfactory Experience "By the Seashore" opens with a blast of Yuzu, a touch harsher than the sun-kissed Neroli in "On the Beach." The citrus accord, while present, leans slightly synthetic on first spray. Quickly, an aromatic heart takes over. The rosemary and thyme provide a Mediterranean breeze effect, grounded by a sandy accord. This is where it deviates. The Louis Vuitton has a creamier, more opulent feel; this leans into a more windswept, naturalistic beach vibe. The cypress in the base adds a green, woody backbone. It captures about 87% of the original's intent, but it lacks the depth and sophistication. ### Longevity & Projection Longevity is moderate. Expect about 4-5 hours of noticeable projection, then it sits closer to the skin for another 2-3. It's a decent performer for a warm weather fragrance. The sillage is polite, creating a personal bubble rather than filling a room. It's perfect for casual daytime wear. If you want the polished experience and depth of the original, splurge. The original is not 10x better, making this clone a worthy contender."
