Jazz Clones

"### Conclusion For those seeking the essence of Jazz without the hefty price tag or hunting for vintage bottles, this clone is a viable option. It’s not a perfect replica, but it scratches the itch. However, if you are looking for an affordable, everyday version for casual wear, this is a practical choice. Good for the budget-conscious fougère lover. ### First Impressions & Dry Down This "Pasha" clone aims for the aromatic fougère structure of Jazz by Yves Saint Laurent, and it achieves a reasonable facsimile. The opening presents lavender and nutmeg prominently, with a slightly sharper coriander note than the original. The heart develops with geranium and carnation, but the jasmine is dialed down, resulting in a less creamy floral blend. The base attempts to capture the oakmoss, tobacco, and leather, but falls slightly short. The oakmoss here is a bit thin and the tobacco leans synthetic. Overall, I'd say it captures about 89% of Jazz's character; the differences lie in the quality of ingredients. ### Performance Reality Check Projection is moderate for the first hour, leaving a pleasant but not overpowering scent bubble. Longevity is adequate, lasting around 5-6 hours on skin, though it fades to a skin scent relatively quickly after the 2-hour mark. It performs as expected for a fragrance at this price point."
