Angels Ice Star Clones

"### Is it Worth It? Ajayeb Dubai Portrait offers a decent approximation of Angels' Share Ice Star . While the synthetic patchouli note is noticeable and detracts slightly from the overall experience, the resemblance to the original is undeniable. However, if absolute fidelity and refinement are paramount, the original Mugler is the superior, albeit significantly more expensive, choice. The value proposition is strong, making this a solid budget option. ### Scent Breakdown Ajayeb Dubai Portrait opens with a prominent coconut water note, immediately identifiable. The pineapple is present, but sits slightly behind, adding a tropical nuance rather than a distinct fruitiness. This differs from Angels' Share Ice Star, which boasts a brighter, more pronounced pineapple facet. The heart reveals praline, a key component, blended with a recognizable patchouli. This is where the similarity to the inspiration strengthens, achieving roughly an 90% likeness. However, the patchouli here feels less refined, displaying a somewhat synthetic edge not present in the Mugler original. The drydown is a vanillic wood, less complex and nuanced than Ice Star's more amber-centric base. ### How Long Does it Last? Longevity is moderate, clocking in around 5-6 hours on skin. Projection is initially strong for the first hour, creating a noticeable scent bubble, then gradually softening to a skin scent. A respray at the 4-hour mark is recommended for sustained presence."
