Followed Noir - 2451

Excellent products and service

The negative reviews gave me hope that this would be like the original, but it's not.
It's like the base notes of Followed without the sharpness/burnt feeling and intense projection. If you're a fan of the original this one is a gamble. For me, the difference is essential, the way the original overwhelms my nose in a very pleasant way just doesn't happen with this one and therefore it cannot compare to the original at all. That aside, it's maybe 80% similar, with a hint of something I slightly dislike that I don't notice in the original. The lacking projection does make this a more friendly version, as it's unlikely to disturb the people around you.

This scent profile certainly won't be for everyone, but I really like it.

The opening is a little harsh, but when it dries down, I love it. The coffee is sweetened by the caramel. I get a hint of chocolate, but the main notes I pick up are coffee, caramel and creamy vanilla with a hint of musk in the deep dry down.

Longevity is decent too, I got about 5 hours on clothes (I don't spray on skin as I'm very sensitive). For this price, I really don't mind topping up. I will be getting another bottle for sure.

I have OG and up close this smells similar BUT I purchased an oil hoping it would perform better but NOPE! it has no silage nor projection. Mind you the OG is beast mode, its actual coffee beans smell you can smell in Starbucks. I tried to put it in clothes and it disappeared within 1-2 hrs, quite disappointed.

Not very nice. Definitely pass on this one
