ADONIS

Wish I could get this in the US 😞 (Update: You can get this in the US now) 10/06/24 Love this stuff! Easily the best tea fragrance I've tried. All season (leaning warm weather), signature worthy. Well liked even by friends who don't usually like frags. Smells high class but could be dressed down too. Presentation is beautiful but straightforward. Streamlined but feels substantial in the hand. Heavy cap. Packaging nice enough to keep. Very close to Matsukita (90%?) Tea note is definitely more upfront as mentioned by others. The top might have a little less citrus sparkle but not by much. Longevity I'm still testing. Just got this in the mail so I'll let it sit and check on it again later. I think it will strengthen with time. Price is way better than Matsukita!

Imagine yourself sitting in the balcony watching sunset after a long working day or after showering from swimming in the pool/beach. You put on your good cloth, music, wear adonis and enjoy yourself with a cup of coffee or tea. Certainly you know you're wearing something very niche high quality and no one smells like you. Performance is very good and satisfying Longevity :- 8+ hrs Projection:- 3 hrs ( within half an arm length) Sillage :- doesn't necessarily fill the room but it leaves a magnificent scent bubble around the wearer Absolutely love this fragrance.

90% similar to Matsukita 10/10 quality and performance

Adonis is a luxurious tea fragrance for lovers of black tea notes, characterized by remarkable quality and distinctive performance. The fragrance follows the path of the famous Matsukita Clive Christian fragrance and is close to it, but it is not a literal imitation of it. The black tea note is strikingly dominant in the fragrance, followed by the jasmine note to break the intensity of the tea note and make the fragrance wearable by both sexes. However, the fragrance tends to be more masculine, the performance is above average and lasts for several continuous hours, the price is not exaggerated and within reach, and it is very suitable for moderate weather and certainly creative in spring. The fragrance comes in the form of Extrait de Parfum in a size of 80ml in a distinctively shaped bottle.

Yes, this is a clone of Matsukita, however, they are not identical. The citrus in CC Matsukita is more prominent while the tea note in Adonis is more prominent. For obvious reasons, Matsukita is the better fragrance with the better quality & much more refined. The quality in Adonis is good but not close to Matsukita. both are on par in terms of performance with Matsukita slightly better but both are close both are just average performers. Does this one cancels Matsukita? I don't think so, however, the original's price 320$ for 50ml for a freshie is crazy high. when you think from that point of view you might consider Adonis for 81$ 80ml but if you want the lush experience in Matsukita then you have to buy it. no clone will give the same feelings in my opinion.
