Very good clone of Fahrenheit
Very good clone of Fahrenheit. Doesn't smell exactly the same in the opening but gets more similar as time progresses. Good longevity and projection. As with all Milton Lloyds, the sprayer takes getting used to. Considering the very low price this is a 10/10.

The Alternative
A few weeks ago I received The Man Cobalt and today I applied it for the first time.
I can't make the described comparison to vintage Fahrenheit because I don't know it. So I measure it against the "current" Fahrenheit, which I once owned; mine was from 2012. The Man Cobalt is clearly a very successful Fahrenheit dupe.
The original, in comparison to this, seems more mass-appealing to me, perhaps even softened.
The Man Cobalt comes across as much more rugged and spicier. I also perceive the well-known
"gasoline note" as much more intense than in the original, which of course also always depends on the dosage, but it should be used sparingly, as TMC has quite a good sillage.
All in all, when I compare the prices, I really don't need to think long about which fragrance I would choose. The differences are there, even significant. However, for my taste, they are not so drastic that I would necessarily choose the current Fahrenheit.
But that's a matter of taste, or in this case, more likely a matter of smell.

Cobalt
A great dupe. If not the best one for Fahrenheit that you can buy. Very good longevity. It smells exactly like the original Fahrenheit. It surprised me a lot and I have been ordering it regularly for years.

Ice violets!
As blue as cobalt steel and as cool as ice flowers. This is how the prominent violet comes across. Then, accompanied by cool citrus fruits, we are soon smelling minus 5 degrees!
But in the hot summer, this fragrance intends to do well. And now, in winter? Lavender and woods set about creating the illusion of pleasant summer warmth. How can that be? I don't think it's just down to the "temperature", but much more to the sensation. As the fragrance manages to create different "images", it can be worn all year round. Spring beckons with blue violets, even when cold winds are still blowing. And summer is no slouch thanks to lavender and lemons. In autumn, woods and "birch tar" (leather) are fragrant - and winter has cool, shimmering cobalt blue musk in store.
This "Milton Lloyd" may be inexpensive, but it smells much more "expensive". Can easily play in the league of "better designers"... And that's GOOD! :-))

A-levels
The year was 1998 and I was a young girl on my A-levels trip to Crete. Shortly beforehand, I bought Fahrenheit Eau de Toilette because it was considered a wild fragrance and I wanted to finish my A-levels on a wild note. In addition to drinking, partying and girls, I met my first love.

So I have a lot in common with the fragrance I thought I had lost forever. I remember as if it were yesterday how unique the herbal notes came to the fore with a distinctive smell of petrol.

So I ordered "The Man Cobalt | Milton-Lloyd / Jean Yves Cosmetics" without great expectations, as many describe it as the OG scent of Fahrenheit Eau de Toilette. A few days later I received it. I opened the package with slightly sweaty hands. Can it be that such a cheap item in an even cheaper bottle is really any good?

The first spray on the pressurized bottle that works like a hairspray. Very unusual and then...... the smell hits my sinuses and I'm 18 again, standing next to the girl at the pool I shyly flirted with. It really is him! It's hard to believe!

The longevity is also impressive for the price and an EDT. 7 hours, no problem. Sillage also slightly above average.

Conclusion: Thanks for this Milton Lloyd! Dont judge a book by its cover.

I spent a year buying over 100 bottles looking for a masculine fragrance. Sometimes I think this is the only one I really needed.

Awesome stuff. Just like I remember the OG Fahrenheit. Herbal petrol. It's 1998 again and I'm graduating high school.

A nice Fahrenheit dupe that reminds me of the vintage version, just a bit more citrusy. The longevity is good, sillage is rather moderate.
