It's not a bad smell, but it certainly isn't anything different or special either. For me this shares more the same dna with 9pm rather than actual dior homme. And the fact that people who hype this aren't even themselves sure which version of homme this actually smells like tells a lot i think.
The whole scent is linear, has hella a lot synthetic notes in it and overall it smells on skin and in air mostly like a 9pm with a small twist and less sweet...
You can buy this if you want, but there are much more better options out there than this. And I'd specially recommend paying attention more to the info about colognes like these, cuz the hype with these arab budgets is usually very coordinated than you would think. Don't be surprised if your negative comment gets multiple people shortly after disagreeing without much explanation why. In short: Nothing competitively special nor different. There's better options out there. You can buy it if you want, but don't expect much, based on what most people hype about.
Depends what you like. For example i'd say some Hawas colognes, Afnans and some Club de nuits. Not sure what kind of options you expected, but those are the "safest" and more competitive alternatives, if we're talking about budget fragrances.
