Bravery

I don’t think it’s an exact dupe of Hypnotic Poison, but a fantastically similar one! Both vaunt that iconic playdoh-esque, almond like accord that I adore, but Bravery has an almost clean lavender vibe whilst HP, a soft fruity one. Bravery is like an alter ego of HP. To me, HP would be a hypnotic and alluring person whilst Bravery would be a magnetic scintillating one. And of course one can be both of those things, which is why I prefer the “alter ego” connotation; the same DNA but a different vibe. Both fantástic! You could even say that Bravery is slightly more unisex than HP.

Well, now I understand why this is spring/fall and not spring/summer. In high heat, Bravery has no sillage and projection. But in milder weather, it is, indeed, a masterpiece. Fall is definitely this frags strongest season. Please dont leave a review if you havent smelled what youre reviewing. I couldn't believe the previous commentor even did this, much less admit to it. Unbelievable.

Wow! Difficult to describe this masterpeice. Very smooth, very well balanced, round, cocoony, creamy, cozy, delicate but noticeable, elegant. I detect white flowers at the start, amber, a hint of vanille, very delicate hint of lavender on the backstage. No comparisons to anything, very refined composition.

Urghhhh to die for !!!! Just stunning to my nose. The notes are blended very smoothly! Just GORGEOUS. Luxurious hypnotic poison vibe, this is the sexier, wealthier sibling!

A pleasant powdery Oriental fougere composition. The perfume opens briefly with notes of lavender, saffron and pepper. The heart is floral mostly rose and lily. The perfume settles on a powdery slightly mossy bed of vanilla, oakmoss, amber, sandalwood and synthetic musk. Not hugely innovative, but pleasant, regal and gentle unisex scent with moderate sillage and good longevity. A very safe yet interesting enough composition. Enjoy!

Mine looks dark amber. I actually get a lot of Jasmine from this, much more than others seem to have voted. However it’s well rounded and warm, and does have that ‘expensive’ smell, but definitely a strong kind of white floral thing going on. Making it lean feminine, I wore it to work and felt good in it.

I love how bright, fresh and zingy this is, it is most definitely unusual. It doesn't work too well on my skin, sadly, and I do suspect this may work better with male chemistry, but I'm no expert. The main detractor for me is that my idiot brain linked it with dentist mouthwash, so now that is all I can smell. Don't you just hate it when that happens...?

This is almost identical to PDM Pegasus. Less metallic opening than Pegasus, which is nice. The drydown is almost the same. Have just been wearing for the last 30 minutes, so will update after a few hours. Sillage is intimate. I got this sample as a free gift with my recent order, but I have no reason to have this since I have Pegasus.

Beautiful, powdery delicate scent yet powerful. Smells like chocolate and heaven. Very clean and comforting. Can't see this fragrance upsetting anyone. Not too sweet. Definitely leaning more feminine but my man wears it and smells delicious. Blind buy? Not at this price, its now £240 a bottle.

Well, my first experience with the brand's perfume by a decant I got recently. Yes, long-lasting and radiant, pleasant and well blended, however it is an exact copy of the Hypnotic Poison by Dior. So disappointing...

People keep describing this as ZiNGY.... There is nothing zingy about hypnotic poison lol. I have yet to smell this but it sounds interesting

Smells just like Hypnotic Poison, which is a hell of a lot cheaper and performs way better.
