Chacal

This has been in heavy rotation during these cold winter UK months. I disagree with those who say lts a "poison-lite"... Well if we are comparing to the 80s poison, maybe. But I find this dupe to smell more like poison (80s), than the weak plum and sugar water that Dior have the cheek to sell as Poison these days. The current poison is unbelievably WEAK SHOWS how bad things are when the cheapie dupes are better in both smell and longevity than the luxury priced Dior. Personally I love this fume, and hope they carry on making it perpetually, so I never run out of my fave scent for glamorous nights in the dark cold winter. wearing in the summer - don't even go there!! Great fume.

I am over the moon happy with this purchase! Chacal is absolutely gorgeous on its own... but also as a vintage Dior Poison/ Poison de Extrait! It is fruity, complex, varied, spicy and a true 80s bomb. The packaging is better than current Dior (I mean the box). The sprayer is pressurized yes but I am so happy with it because I just press once and it sprays on and on and on so I can drench myself in this gorgeous perfume. I think I will use my bottle really really fast. As a Poison fan or a fan of 80s perfumes, buy Chacal you will adore it! 10/10

I don't think I can add anything that hasn't already been said here about Chackal. Regardless of its atrocious resemblance to poison, this English perfume leaves a vampire trail behind it. 80s type mix of abstract flowers, abstract plum and a sweetness that has nothing to do with anything childish.It seems to me that it has its own undertone, honeyed and a little herbaceous (sharing part of the smell with Passion by ET). Chackal, some good fishnet stockings and a good concert, that would be a perfect combination

Wow it's definitely the poison i used to smell on almost every girl back in the 80 and 90-ties. Then i hated it because everyone stank of poison or opium. But now 35 years later i adore these two. And the ML dupes for both are very, very good and i mean the original perfumes back then. Nowadays the origanals of these two classics are watered down and costs a fortune. You can beter buy the ML dupes for less than 5 dollar a piece and they resemble the good and strong originals of 30 years ago.

I bought this for just £5.40 on ebay. I didn't know anything about its familiarity with Poison the female fragrance but this is unisex for me after the initial blast of the opening. Its pleasant enough and I'm pleased I bought it by mistake. Great value for money and for a 50ml bottle it will last quite a while. Two squirts is more than enough and the performance is excellent! This is an 8 out of 10 all the way and for a fiver you can't lose!
