Too much alcohol, no coffee

What was I thinking here?
I have to admit that I wasn't necessarily looking for a dupe of BO, but I was hoping for notes of pear, coffee and pink pepper.

But this one, I don't know...
Apart from the strong smell of alcohol that I detect, the perfume itself is not bad. I smell vanilla, lots³ of licorice and also something floral... but the coffee scent that I was promised on the La Rive website itself, here and other sites on the net? Unfortunately, there is (almost?) no trace of it!

I wouldn't necessarily say it was a bad buy... however, it doesn't live up to what I was looking forward to.

The longevity and sillage are also a little disappointing. Given the price, however, I can live with that.

The coffee is missing

Without question, this perfume is a cost-effective alternative to YSL's black opium. Unfortunately the coffee component is completely missing.
I think there's a better fragrance twin: Zara Gardenia. Also here the coffee note comes a little short, but Zara Gardenia looks rounder and he misses the slightly sour, a little bit cheap note ( which I only like in the direct Zara Dupe/ LR Dupe or LR Dupe / Original unpleasant
is noticeable)

Delicatessen

After all the great comments here, I have reactivated my disused nose and ordered 3 perfumes / dupes. After Prada candy Kiss I should have found something cheaper and I found some great reviews that helped me a lot. And I have sweet memories of opium, as I was given the real perfume by a holiday acquaintance on Sylt 35 years ago, because I always envied her. That bottle with the little trace of perfume makes me a junkie. And also this smell makes me reminisce - warm and familiar - and simply delicious. The advantage for me - the real perfume could easily sting my skin - this only smells like more. Definitely a great purchase, you sit wrapped in a gentle vanilla aroma and smell like a peach that comes fresh and soft with velvety skin fresh from the tree. Tasty tasty tasty ??????????

Too sweet for me to wear in public

This is on the borderline of being too sweet to endure, but I still like it for bed time, almost like a sweet dreams potion. Nothing I would wear in public. I would feel like smelling like a candy bar, and even though I like sweet, just to smell like a food item with nothing to balance it out is more something for a much, MUCH younger crowd. I like gourmand frags only if I don't smell exactly like a bakery, coffee house or a chocolate bar. I wished I could detect more fruit. It's still nice for bed time, though. But I would still consider a swap with something not quite so sweet. It's a 3.3oz bottle almost full.
