Amore Caffè Clones

"### Olfactory Experience Coffee Latte opens with a blast of dark coffee and almond liqueur, much like Amore Caffè. It's potent, but lacks the nuanced roasted bean quality of the Mancera. The heart brings in the promised ice cream and vanilla, creating a sweet, gourmand experience. The drydown leans heavily on brown sugar and vanilla, becoming somewhat cloying if oversprayed. Where it differs is in the ambergris base. Khadlaj's version smells synthetic, a bit scratchy compared to the smoother, more refined amber in Amore Caffè. I'd say it captures 88% of the original's DNA. ### Projection Power Performance is decent, especially . I get about 6-7 hours on my skin with moderate projection for the first 2 hours. It settles closer to the skin after that. It projects well enough to be noticed without being obnoxious. A solid performer, especially point. It's not a perfect match, but it gets close enough for everyday wear. If you love the coffee-vanilla gourmand vibe but can't stomach the high price tag of the original, this is a solid choice. The synthetic ambergris is noticeable but not a dealbreaker. For pure value, this Khadlaj clone gets the job done."

"### The Scent Profile Tiramisu Coco opens with a blast of coffee and almond, mimicking Amore Caffè's boozy caffeinated start. It's not a *perfect* match; the amaretto here leans slightly more synthetic, less nuanced. The heart pushes forward with a creamy vanilla, attempting the ice cream accord, but it feels a tad more like a generic vanilla extract than cold, artisanal gelato. The drydown is where the biggest difference lies. Instead of Mancera's smooth amber, Zimaya throws in a cloying brown sugar note. It's sweet, yes, but also a bit cheap-smelling. I'd say it captures roughly 90% of the original's DNA, but those final 90% are where the quality gap widens. ### Wear time & Sillage This is where Tiramisu Coco shines. It projects reasonably well for the first 2-3 hours, leaving a noticeable scent trail. Longevity is decent, clinging to skin for 6-7 hours. You'll get whiffs throughout the day. Don't expect beast mode, but it performs adequately point. It’s not a flawless imitation; the cheaper ingredients show in the drydown. However, of the original, it's a worthwhile compromise. If you demand niche quality and have the cash, stick with Mancera. But if you’re a fragrance enthusiast on a budget, this is a decent introduction. A blind buy? Maybe. But only if you are on a budget, otherwise save up for the original."
