Alpha Desire

I bought this after seeing some people compare it to Torino 22, which I've come to enjoy a lot. I thought this might scratch that itch ,but I don't see any resemblance in the slightest. I sprayed Alpha Desire on one arm and tested Torino 22 at Dillard's on the other arm. To me they couldn't smell more different. Torino 22 is fresh and a little minty, while Alpha Desire reminds me of a darker mature men's cologne. Heck I'd even say grandpa aftershave. I won't say it's bad, but it's nowhere in the ballpark for Torino 22, at least to my nose. Pretty disappointed as it's my first flop when buying an inspired/dupe/twist. I was interested in the French Riviera version they have , but I'm a little wary now.

@shawn3300 Here's a test you can do, spray this perfume and any other perfume like red tobacco on a paper strip and check it the next day, I guarantee that Alpha Fomo Desire doesn't project after 24h but most mancera fragrances would lasts for a week on paper. I tested Iris Patchouli FA (extrait) at the same time & that lasted 4+ days of projection while Alpha Fomo was non existant. While I appreciate this scent profile and ingredients what I point out is that this is a typical issue that most fragrances only focus on top notes that blast for 2hrs and then they just become a skin scent. Mancera fragrances evolve with time while this doesn't change much. It's not even a fair comparison but fragrances from the same range offer better longevity than alpha fomo.

This juice is unique. It has a very strong nose blinding opening with sweetness from eucalyptus and other floral notes (lavender, saffron) that makes it more unisex. The scent profile is linear. It has a terrible longevity of ≈2-3h & then it just fades away. It's a weird perfume with too intense opening and even if you put it on clothing it fades away within few hours. I will return it, although the ingredients in this perfume are risk free. I will give it overall rating of 4/10

This perfume is really well crafted for 50$, this perfume is in line with luxury houses and the purple stone on the cap is so beautiful. The perfume itself is amazing the saffron aromachemicals are turned up and I love saffron. Little touch of cedar lots of lavender. The opening of this perfume is very powerful and than about 4-5 hours after it’s sat it turns into a vanilla blanket. It’s absolutely stunning for 50$. I’ve paid a lot more for less quality.

The below reviewer most definitely doesn’t own this perfume. This perfume last and last and last! Its performance is in line with Mancera Red Tobacco you can’t even scrub this scent off if you tried. Idk what this person below is smelling but it’s not alpha desire. I hate trolls like that, like why?? If you didn’t like the scent just return it you don’t need to lie about longevity
