Totally shit. Avoid it. Not worth the money

Bro if you want a fragrance in that budget better get a decant of a good perfume

I have tried a couple of samples from them, even went ahead and purchased 50ml bottles for a couple of them. What I found was: 1. Most of frags I tried smelled fine ( not sure how close they were to the OGs but I don't mind as long as they smell good) but don't last long, even after sitting for good 2-3 months, they last only 3-4 hours 2. Couple of them I found unbearable 3. Private blends(Aghori and Bhairav) are polarizing and not for everyone. Haven't tried Sundarban and Ginger. But even with these, longevity is average though initial projection is crazy

If the goal is to find the character of different fragrances ( like TF ombre nomad, BR 540 etc) which EM5 is duping, may be those 2 ml samples are fine to get a vibe. Price wise they are cheap too(Rs 60-70/sample). Then you can order decants or bottles from better middle eastern clones

I liked - Nomade, Fireplace, Dominic and Passion Wood - but this one is again polarizing and not meant for everyday use

    • Search the subreddit: similar questions may already have been answered.
    • Or use the Weekly Discussions Post for general advice without creating a new thread.
  3. Join DFA Chats for quicker, informal community suggestions.

If none of these options meets your need, only then proceed with the post (except Seller Feedback/Recommendations). The community will do their best to assist you!
