The Orientica brand itself is a Luxurious brand, their price isn't as cheap as other middle eastern fragrances. The fragrances are very high quality, long lasting, and have great sillage. Royal Bleu is very similar with Layton, the has this Middle Eastern vibe in the opening but after dry down is the exactly same smell. I can confirm this because I own Layton and I tested both on the skin. The quality is there. If you want a good quality and good smelling fragrance, being or not close to Layton, but the smell itself good, go for it. It's worth it a lot!

More like a cold weather fragrance, but you can push it for a Summer night. In the beach or sunny summer days could be a lil overwhealming for some. I honestly don't care much about it, because what metter really is how you feel with the fragrance :)

Generally, if you ever smelled Layton and is looking for a fragrance with this DNA, you will not regret buying Orientica Royal Bleu

Parfums de Marly Layton was my first ever niche fragrance that I bought. I discovered the niche brands recently when I was in the duty-free in the airport, I stopped to smell all the Parfums de Marly fragrances. Layton was the one that impressed me the most. Layton and Altair, those ones were really good to my taste.

In the same day I looked it up and found out that there are a few dupe options for this fragrance, so I went for the Orientica Royal Bleu, which actually smells really, really good too, very very similar smell, but eventually I ended up selling my Orientica and bought the original Layton.

This fragrance is very, very good, and versatile. You can use it at, in my opinion, summer or winter, but preferably winter. And it's, it's super good. I like it very much.

It projects a lot. It stays in my skin for 10 hours, more than 10 hours easily. So yeah, if you're thinking about buying a Parfum de Marly fragrance, I would suggest going directly to Layton, not the Exclusiv tho, the is better.

I bought Hectic a few days ago, not intending to own it as a "Clone/Interpretation" from LV Imagination, but exclusively because I was looking for a summer fragrance. Currently you can buy this fragrance in the Bujairami website, they ship to Germany, but I bought in a website from the UK, with slightly higher price than original website, but in the end was almost the same value, because of the shipping from Australia, at least from the UK is faster to arrive. Generally its quite hard to find it, but not impossible.

Going to the fragrance... It's really good, you can't go wrong with it, it's a summer fresh & elegant fragrance. In the first minutes you get a punch of Citruses (lemon and Bergamot), and it settles down in a beautiful Fresh still Citrusy smell. What I can say to you to help understand the smell, imagine you just left the Sauna from a 5 Stars luxurious hotel Spa, with your bathrobe and feeling refreshed and energized. This is the exact smell. It's amazing.

Safe blind buy in my opinion. I have no idea how is the smell from Imagination tho, but honestly I would say just forget about it, this fragrance on its own is arealdy super great, being close or not to the OG, honestly, doesn't Metter for me much. It's also very long lasting!!

Hope that helps! ;)

I blind bought this fragrance 1,5 y ago influenced by Jeremy Fragrance, and I was veeery impressed with the smell. Super good. It lasts and project really well too. For the price I paid (around 60€) was pretty worthy it. Its fragrance to use at night outs generally, but you can push it for a cold afternoon shopping too, summer not so much.
I still own it and what changed for me about this fragrance is that I feel it became a bit Teenage-ish fragrance. It's still one of the best smelling fragrances from JPG, (not better than Le Male Le Parfum), but it's top 2 night-out fragrance. Definitely way better than Elixir - which if feel it's too sweet and kind of feminine).

Nowadays I use this fragrance only for night outs (summer and winter nights both goes well!)

Generally speaking it's super worth owning it! ;)

When I first bought this fragrance, I had no idea it was supposed to be a dupe from Creed Aventus. I found out randomly when I smeeled the original OG in Douglas, I was like "what the he'll this smell just like my fragrance I just bought".
It's Ben a year I own it and I've been using everyday to go to work - and only for it.
My honest opinion is that this fragrance isn't really appealing overall, it is indeed very versatile for any occasion, but with that many other options available nowadays in the market, I wouldn't suggest Club de Nuit for you as a "Dailywear".
As you might know by now, the opening is veeery harsh, to the point I hold my breath when I spray it in the first 8 10 seconds, or emidiatly walk away for a new air location. The dries down pleases me OK... I'm not the expert of fragrances notes but what I can certainly smell is Pineapple. 10 months ago this fragrance was very different from what it is today also...

Generally I wouldn't recommend buying this Club the Nuit, but if you like Creed Aventus, this is a good budget option for you ;)
