Our objective metric for performance per dollar.
The Scent Profile
Okay, so this clone is aiming for Kilian's Intoxicated. The cardamom opening is definitely there, though a touch sharper and more synthetic than the real deal. It quickly dives into a coffee and spice blend. I get nutmeg and cinnamon, but the coffee is the star here. It's a slightly roasted, sweet coffee rather than a dark, bitter brew. The dry down is vanilla-heavy, smoothing things out. Honestly, it's about 91% there. The real Intoxicated has a richer, smoother, natural feel. This one has a slight synthetic edge throughout, but it's not offensive.
The Performance Stats
Not bad at all . I'm getting a solid 6-7 hours on skin. Projection is moderate for the first couple of hours, then it sits closer. It won't fill a room, but people within arm's reach will notice. A couple of extra sprays will bump up the performance if you need it.
Bottom Line
If you love the idea of Intoxicated but can't stomach the Kilian price tag, this is a decent alternative. It's a good daily driver for fall and winter. Perfect for coffee shops, dates, or just cozy days in. If you're a hardcore fragrance snob, you'll notice the difference. But for the average Joe or Jane looking for a warm, spicy, coffee scent on a budget? Absolutely worth checking out.
