Hypnotic Poison Light
This fragrance belongs to the good dupes, in my opinion.
I have already tested a few Hypnotic Poison dupes. The worst was "Fiore del Dragone".
Uaahhh, it makes me shudder again. So diluted and synthetic.
I just can't with the Tesoris in general; there's always some strange note in them. No thanks.
I'd rather stick with the original. Lady in Red smells very much like the original HP. Before the reformulation.
(As can also be read in the statements below.) The unmistakable, delicious anise-cumin note. Lady in Red is just a tad softer, lighter than HP, and it lacks a bit of the intensity and sophistication that the original has. It is and remains unmistakable.
Nevertheless, LiR can be a worthy substitute for HP lovers.
100 ml for just under €20 is already an excellent price-performance ratio.
Because the good longevity (about 5 hours) is also worth mentioning. The Morabitos are all very well made; I was able to test a few, and you really can't tell their low price.
The bottle in that sexy red tone is top-notch, fits well in the hand.
I like the cozy scent, even though I've somewhat neglected it lately.
There is so much new to discover.

The overly strong anise note lingers and ruins the scent reminiscent of Hypnotic Poison. Vanilla + oak moss in the base. Uneven.

Hypn.Poison bores me right away, too linear. Lady in Red has more depth, stunning anise/licorice note, more vanilla in the finish, moss softens the sweetness.

I didn't find it as harmonious as HP. It has something annoyingly synthetic and too much anise. It fades quickly. It lacks the interesting depth.

Warm & sensual.
Reminds me of Hypnotic Poison, but much better and more intense.

First synthetic ... where do you want to go?
Then warming soft vanilla and it becomes slightly smoky at the end.
Interesting progression.

Really well done. Anise and licorice without sharpness. I like it better than HP EdT.
Great scent for the transitional period.

A cousin of Hypnotic Poison who loves and enjoys licorice and sucks on anise candies.

The opening with licorice takes some getting used to. But in the drydown, a wonderful spicy vanilla with lovely woods emerges.

Anise gently embraces the licorice.
Sexy & sensual scent.
Good dupe for HP.
Sillage unfortunately not so strong.
TOP price at around €22.
