Not a 1:1 Angels' Share dupe, but impressive performance
If the name doesn't already make it obvious, Inner Angel Fragrance Mist is meant to imitate Angels' Share Eau de Parfum . But as an Angels' Share fan, I can tell you this isn't a 1:1 dupe.
The opening is the closest part to Angels' Share: a warm, slightly-spiced apple cognac (not very realistic or sharp - more of a fuzzy portrayal). After 30-ish minutes, this moves into a sweet, slightly-synthetic smoke + soft spices... almost as if the booze is being broken down into parts. The base became a sweet, generic powder + smooth cedar shavings, with just a hint of the remaining boozy spice in the background.
For a mist, this lasts forever: it went strong for 7 hours on my skin, prior to fading. It also had impressive sillage, and left an inviting scent trail. It's one of BBW's stronger performers!
The dry-down was a no for me, as I'm not partial to cedar - and sweet powder can be hard for me to stomach (thanks to the overdone DNAs found in Baccarat Rouge 540 Eau de Parfum and Cloud Eau de Parfum ). But even if there are parts that feel a bit synthetic, and it won't compare in quality to Angel's Share... this is still a pleasant gourmand-boozy choice for fall, with impressive performance!
