Just testing this on both hands right now, straight from the opening. At first spray it smells similar to what it’s inspired by, but definitely not a 1:1 match. The opening actually comes across a bit fruitier to my nose, even though I don’t see any fruity notes listed. This fragrance is supposed to be inspired by MYSLF Le Parfum, and as it starts drying down it’s getting noticeably closer to that scent profile. The resemblance really begins to come through once the initial opening settles. I do want to mention something I’ve noticed online. A lot of people on platforms like TikTok, especially sponsored reviewers, keep saying this is a dupe of the original MYSLF EDP. From what I can tell, that doesn’t really line up. The notes and overall accords don’t match the original EDP at all. Based on the scent profile and how it develops, it’s pretty clearly aiming to replicate MYSLF Le Parfum instead. About 10 minutes into the dry down, the original MYSLF Le Parfum is definitely stronger than Xena Lumin, though the overall smell is quite close. I also have to mention the presentation. I’m honestly surprised by how good the bottle quality is. The glass feels solid, the cap fits nicely and feels premium, and the overall build just feels well done. The atomizer could be a little better, but I’m not very picky about that. Also worth noting that this is literally my first spray right after opening the box and bottle. It hasn’t had any time to macerate yet, so I expect the scent to smooth out and develop a bit more with some air and a few wears. I’ll update this after a full wear once I’ve had time to test the full drydown and performance.

This is just great. Minty, fresh, a little spicy scent with a powerful concentration. I think this might be my new favourite. It is very safe for a blind buy. I believe you can wear this for winter as well as summer because it will last.

Phenomenal if you've smelt and like ysl myself this is spot on one for one but possible stronger projection

A nice warm clean scent. Reminds me of a fresh load of laundry. Very easy to wear but the atomizer might be the worst thing in my entire collection.

Blind buy safe very fresh clean clothes type of smell in a masculine way. I love how this develops deeper than ysl myslf le parfum and it performs and lasts longer too. It develops deeper as in it goes from fresh spicy to clan linen in the dry down. But dont get it twisted u still smell the clean linen from beginning to finish. It just becomes an undertone to a prominent smell. Very good juice, hard to get, very good price and quality to me this gets a very very rare 5/5 for me

Absolutely gorgeous and so close to the Myself EDP DNA. It is a little fresher but super clean and blind buy safe. Actually buying backup bottle and blind buy safe.
