I bought this dupe based on a review somewhere describing it as "gothic", and "femme fatale" etc. I've not tried the original so can't comment on how accurate a dupe it is, but I can say it is an absolutely beautiful scent. It is quite similar to Comme Des Garcons - Avignon----in that it has a church-like incense vibe mixed with vanilla----but warmer, with more vanilla as it dried down. It also reminds me a little of Tom Ford Sahara Noir, but much softer and sweeter. The original is apparently exclusive to the Middle-Eastern market? So I guess it also has that kind of vibe. It's definitely a unisex scent that would work on any gender, but it might be a bit much for some people. In summary: sexy, smoky, sweet and mysterious.
I never smelt the original from Penhaligon's, but I smelt other alternative from other fragrances oils companies. I like Perfume Parlour proposal. It smells smoky and a bit sweet for some hours, I like the smell a lot. It tends to turn on the sweet side after some hours, but the smell is still good.

Just perfect
I find it better than the original because the PP is directly in the bottom of the perfume with a 90% similarity (I own the original)

Absolutely Amazing
I discovered the original scent (Kilian Smoking Hot) in a large dept. store and instantly fell in love with it. I've been waiting for PP to release this and they have hit the nail bang on the head with this one. It is identical to the original. Smells amazing and lasts for ages. I can still smell it on my clothes the next day. Only a very small amount needed for maximum effects. I'm using the 60ml Extrait. 10/10 PP.

A sweet hybrid
This is lovely and sweet, quite juicy as well. To my nose it's like a hybrid of Instant Crush and Erba Pura. It's just seems to work without leaning too feminine. This is now my 24th or 25th extrait bottle from P.P. I just wish the delivery was quicker.
