More than just a dupe

I bought Casino Elixir as a sample at the souk. Tense like a little child, I open the package, take off the lid and give myself 2 sprays on my forearm.

I'm sitting on the beach with a half-open Hawaiian shirt and sunglasses. The palm trees waving in the wind, I'm enjoying a drink, something fruity. The pineapple sticks out. So I sit there and lean back. About an hour after the drink is sipped, the wind gets stronger. So strong that the wind blows me off the quiet beach at a fairground. I stand there with a huge cotton candy and stroll across the market.

About the fragrance itself:
The fragrance opens with notes of Creed Aventus. The fruity notes are very present, which I like a lot. I clearly perceive the pineapple. But it doesn't come close to the fruitiness of the original. After about 1 - 1.5 hours the fragrance changes. I perceive a sweetness very clearly. The scent is very similar to BR 540 (I am talking about the Extrait version). The scent remains very linear, but after 1 - 1.5 hours only BR 540 is still noticeable. In general, Casino Elixir hits the scents of Aventus and BR 540 to the point, excellent! I love both fragrances. Dua Fragrance has managed to bring these fragrances together in a dreamlike combination.
The shelf life can be described as follows: The scent was applied in the evening, around 6 pm. The following morning, around 7 o'clock, I smell my forearm shortly after getting up. The scent is still clearly present. I think you can get through the day perfectly with 4 sprays without the scent being too intrusive.

I would like to end the comment with the following sentence: "Honey, what smells so horny here?!"

Many thanks for reading it
