Nefarious Alexandria Fragrances 2022

As already mentioned, the top note is almost identical. Nefarious then develops further and becomes more and more coherent. I personally don't understand how one could think that the fragrance is only linear.
I smell something different every time I put my wrist to my nose. When I walk, a cloud of fragrance rises from time to time. Over time, it becomes finer and better. It's not a groundbreaking fragrance, but I can smell a clear change in the air. Close to the skin and in the air, the fragrance is also very different.

I have the original Nefs here as a sample and have only compared the two on paper so far. But my gosh, does the nefarious come close. That's already criminal. I find nefarious louder than Nefs. More untidy. I wouldn't be surprised if even the longevity or sillage was stronger. Everything that Nefs achieves through elegance and class, nefarious tries to make up for (and that's what dupes often try to do) through loudness. In the head, heart and base notes. Everywhere nefarious is louder than its big brother.

If I could choose freely, I would probably always choose nefarious. No, for sure. He is certainly finer, more elegant, more regal. Just as it should be for a fragrance in this price segment. The fragrance should be exclusive. Nefarious now allows the little man to smell like a king. That is quite remarkable.

In conclusion: clear recommendation. Anyone who can cope with "only" wearing a Dior and wants to save money and doesn't care about the last 3-5% will be so happy with nefarious.
