I tried it in a perfumery and it reminded me of SWY Oud by Giorgio Armani, but softer with a sweet touch. I recommend trying a decant first to see how it suits your skin and how long it lasts.

I tried it in a perfumery and it reminded me of the Armani Oud, but softer and slightly sweeter. I recommend trying it in a decant before buying the full bottle to see if it suits your skin and how long it lasts.
Malolo
At first, I found it very weak with little projection, but after storing it for months, it’s now a different perfume. The scent is similar to the original but less sweet and less heavy. I’m increasingly convinced that perfumes improve with time if you let them rest and spray them occasionally.
Spaceman08
I just bought it and I think it needs more oxidation as it doesn’t last at all. It only smells of alcohol and a hint of sweetness, disappearing in five minutes without a trace. I read on Reddit that others had the same experience and that after a month of maceration, it comes to life. I’ll let it rest to see if that’s true.
aromasyemociones
I fully agree with @usuarioanónimo. Arabic perfumes shouldn’t be reviewed lightly, as it becomes so imprecise that we could harm others by inviting them to spend money without certainty.

I invite you not to review Arabic perfumes as soon as you receive them. It’s better to let them oxidate for a reasonable time, such as a month, as it greatly improves longevity and avoids mistakes.
Rudini710
I bought it due to good reviews and although the opening is well done, it doesn’t project much. On skin it lasts 3-4 hours, on clothes 4-5. The first 30 minutes it stays close to the skin, almost creating a personal bubble. A bit disappointed, but for the price you can’t ask for more. I left it to macerate to see if it evolves, as I even thought it might be fake. The box came without cellophane.
Akatsushi
It’s an exquisite and dark perfume, but others found part of its evolution acidic, almost like baby vomit. Apart from that, it didn’t last many minutes; I’d give it an 8/10. PS: For the esteemed Rudini710, always buy from established stores; without cellophane it’s the highest risk as third parties could alter it. Be careful only if you know the perfume thoroughly to avoid being cheated. Best regards.

Very good; it smells similar to the SWY Intensely, I imagine closer to the Absolutely. It gives a warm sensation, like someone you want to hug, with a particular sweetness excellent for going out in the cold. Projection could improve, but for the price, it’s sufficient. Regarding longevity, with 4–5 sprays on clothes or skin, you’ll have it all day; I’ve woken up with the scent on my skin, and it’s not just me.
Azariel_Nox
A good perfume, great fragrance and lasting power. For the esteemed Akatsushi, the elemi gives citrus and resinous notes, and with the rum, davana and chestnut vanilla/almond, it becomes potent… but smelling like baby vomit is a different matter. In this flanker of Proud, it only smells of an overpowering sour cherry gourmand, limited edition niche.

Very good; I’ve smelled SWY Intensely and it has a resemblance, so I imagine it will be closer to Absolutely. It gives me a warm sensation, like someone you want to hug, with an excellent particular sweetness for going out in the cold. Projection could improve, but for the price it’s more than enough. Regarding longevity, with 4-5 sprays on clothes or skin you’ll have it all day; I woke up with the scent on my skin and it wasn’t just me 😉

Exquisite perfume. I haven’t tried the original Armani, but this has an opening slightly boozy with creamy vanilla and a woody base that lasts. A warm and sweet fragrance perfect for autumn and winter. I was surprised by the longevity after two weeks of rest: 7-8 hours, on clothes until the next day. When I applied it one night, friends said it was very noticeable. For the price, a safe buy. Best regards from Chile.

Exquisite perfume. I haven’t tried the original Armani, but this has a boozy opening with creamy vanilla and a woody base that endures. A warm, sweet fragrance ideal for autumn and winter. I was surprised by the longevity: at the second week, it lasts 7–8 hours, remaining on clothes until the next day. One night, after an hour, friends told me I smelled wonderful. For the price, it’s a safe purchase. Greetings from Chile.

Starts with a very pronounced rum, noticeable immediately. Then vanilla and wood emerge, creating a sweet, warm, resinous scent. It’s rich and easy to enjoy. I was surprised; it lasts about four hours and needs reapplication, but for the price, it’s fine. It resembles the SWY quite a bit.

Opens with a boozy rum. It has a great similarity to the SWY Absolutely, 90% to 95% after drying down. Smells of wood, rum, and vanilla. Perfect for winter or autumn, generates compliments, and lasts 6–7 hours, very good value for money. Hope this helps.
Fernando Silva
Starts with a very pronounced rum, but within five minutes it transforms into an incredible scent that breaks necks. It has spectacular projection and lasts 7–8 hours on my skin. It’s not cloying and is exactly like the original. I own both, and the price is very good.

Opens with a boozy rum. It has an enormous similarity to the SWY Absolutely, 90% to 95% after drying down. Smells of wood, rum, and vanilla. Perfect for winter or autumn, generates compliments, and lasts 6–7 hours, very good value for money. Hope this helps.
